plants are from five to seven feet high,
and have no limbs or branches at all
The bolls form on little twigs two and
three inches long, and when in blossom
the stalk presents the appearance of a
white column. A crop of about four bales
to the acre is what is expected under fair
| conditions. This Alabama patch is the
property of Rev. l. N. Fitzpatrick, a pre-
| siding elder of the African Methodist
church, and such is care of this unique
crop and his confidence in his neighbors
that he is watching it at night with a
dog and gun.

In Copenhagen the dairy companies

ilized gravel, and some of it is sterilized
separately after that. Denmark ships

Great changes have been recently
made in Europe in the manufacture of
