THE COTTON SEED INDUSTRY.

Inc extraordinary growth of the

ing the past decade constitutes one of
the most striking features of our indus.

Ten years z The cotton seed WAS
iooKed upon with contempt as some
thing which could no be utilized ey-
cept Tor planting or fertilizing pur-
poses; II on account of the vast GUAM

upon with admiring homage. On nc.

rccup' ration, says Il writer in the
E%p'tomiSt. by attempting to cover
too much ground, the work is only half
accomplished, with the result that the
yield is much lcssencd and the quality
of an inferior grade, SO that the returns
from the FAM in many instances do
not cover cost of production !; while if
there should be Il small surplus, large
taxes and cost OF repairs Will swallow
it up, So thai the hard-wurkcd farmer
has nothing to show at the end Of the

Frightening a Grizzly.

A veteran hunter tells in the San
Francisco Chronicle of bear which
backed out of fight. frightened by a
nan's acrobatic performances. He
says:
"A remarkable instance 1 heard of
once, where a famous guide coura-
geously advanced upon three grizzlies,
an old she-bear and two half-grown
cubs, and by series of ridiculous mon
key-shines and acrobatic maneuvers ON
the ground within a rod or two of the
bears, filed them with such astonish-
ment and apparent fear that the three
hastily retreated into the woods.
1.-THE guides gun had snapped in both
barrels, he having drawn ON the old
bear before the young ones appeared
He afterward said that it was in fit
of desperation that he tried the turning
of a handspring and jumping up and
down. Hopping his hands and resorting
to other unhunter-like measures.
HE had been told once that hunter
had frightened mountain lion away
by similar absurd movements, and he
found that it worked to perfection in
the case of the bears. although he did
not encourage anyone to go hunting
grizzlies armed with nothing more thar
q capacity to turn somersaults."
