II the assertions Of many old
citizens, who ought to know, that
cold weather kills the worms and
insects that ie hidden IN the soil
awaiting the prouting Of the cotton
are surely true, this sprint Of the
cold spirits Of the northern climes
ought TO "hold them for % while"
So il this Is really the case the
early cold perhaps catches the
boil worm, the caterpillar and
sharp shooter or their Jsss before
they have been plowcd further un.

returned from Houston where Ar
chitect Glenn Allen prepared for
her two sketches Of the proposed

mated, at cost Of 81 900, and
which will include large hall
with connecting alcoyes, . library
aud stage and a very handsome or.
