WORK OF 1~H TRUsT.
Forcing Down the Price Of Cotton
Seed.


RAYMOND. Miss. October 1C.-There is
great and growing discomfort throughout
the whole cotton producing region over the
arbitrary and unreasonable manipulations
Of the cotton oil trust which distates and
enforces che price of cotton seed. At the
beginning of the present season 50 per ton
was the ruling price at this point. Then
there was consultation among the represen-
tativcs OF the several mills maintaining
agents here one Of which has been looked
upon rs Independent and another located
at Eaton Rouge, the result being that the
prico was dropped to s..
Within q week there was another drop
TO s.. which price rules today, although it
is understood chat the agents of the several
mills have met and agreed to a further re-
duction Of -.
In view of these facts g petition Is being
now circulated ioOllns 10 the punishment
of those engaged in bearing down the value
Of seed The admissions OF agents furnish
the proof necessary to establish the COM
bine. The petition is in duplicate, one be-
ing addressed TO the United States district
attorney ana the other to the state district
attorney, charging the cotton seed agents
with conspiracy.

Pruning Trecs.

a correspondent of the Rural New
Yorker gives the following sensible rea-
sons for spring pruning. Says he:
1 much prefer to prune all kinds Of
fruit trees in the spring and if the pros
pect Of "A rush Of work is not too great,
L would rather wait until the buds have
started or even until the blossoms have
opened. 1t will be found that less
sprouts viii appear after spring prun-
ing than after pruning at any other
time. Then the tree is at its best cOndi-
ton to recover from injuries and all
scars viii heal more readily.
In addition to these reasons I prefer
to prune IN spring, because spring prun-
ing serves twO-folG purpose; it thins
the fruit buds at the same time that
it removes superhuoUs wood. When the
fruit buds have started it is easy to re-
move a part Of them, if they seem too
numerous, while in the tree and the
strength Of the tree is not wasted on use
less and worse than useless bloom.
OF course circumstances must have
much to DO with the time at which such
work is done. 1 would rather cut out
dead or superfluous wood from peach
trees in the fall than not at all. It
would do but little injury TO the trees.
