"Lice" on Cotton.
There has been a great deal Of COM
plant from different sections Of the coun-
ty during the past few days on account Of
the ravages Of what is known as the cot
ton louse. Some people say that the
louse does no da mage; but others with
an equal amount of experience say 1t
does. It seems to come generally as the
result of damp cool weather, and the only
known remedy is hot sunshine, and par
ticularly hot nights.
The New Daily Mail.
The new daily over the Charlotte ana
Bethel routes will 20 into effect from and
after July lst. Some of the people on the
Charlotte route are making efforts to have
the schedule changed 80 as to 60 one way
one day, and the other way the next.
This arrangement will only be fair, and
there seems to be no reason why the post
Office department should object to 1t.
However, under any circumstances, with
the new schedule in effect, the mail tacil-
tiles along both routes, will be greatly inn
proved.

has been able to learn, are very much In
terested. There has been some regret ex-
pressed that the date was made so late.
This point, however, was thoroughly
canvassed at the recent committee meet

fixing on September 2, was to get rid, as
far as possible, of the political demorali-
zation that Is likely to prevail up to the
primary election.
