Bagging and Tie Trusts.

The cotton planters of the
South may again have to resort
to cotton sheeting as a covering
for their cotton, and to seek some
substitute for ties to hold the
bales in shape. These needful
supplies are now entirely con.
trolled by the trusts. Last year
there were half dozen compel
itors in each line. This year there
are none. One concern has abso.
lutte control of all the cotton bag.
ging in the country, and another
has absolute control of the cot
ton ties.
The American Manufacturing
company, Of New York, controls
the cott,n bagging of the coun-
try, and the American Steel
Hoop company, which is includ-
ed In the great Federal Steel
trust, controls the tie output. The
latter is comparatively recent
anal algamation of several con-
Germs. The Ludlows, of Boston,
Mass, are still in the cotton bag
ging business, but they are in
close alliance with the American
Manufacturing company and
make exactly the same terms
aud prices.
The result is seen in the
changed quotations. For several
months the quotations of ties and
bagging have remained practi
cally unchanged. An increase of
about q cents has been made In
the price of bagging, and it is
not unlikely that there will be
further increases. The trusts have
in fact given notice that a fur
ther increase may be expected
in June.
While nominally the bagging
business is being conducted con.
Quoted both by the Ludlows and
the American Manufacturing
company, both send out the same
price list and make exactly the
same terms. Both declined to sell
any bagging for this years crop
until this week, and both opened
at the some prices. Their terms
are spot cash and no credit.
All the cotton ties used in the
United States are now made by
the Federal Steel Hoop company.
The latter is an amalgamation of
the several different concerns
which engaged in the hoop and
tie business last year. The result
of the amalgamation was felt i'm
medIately. From 60 cents, the
price at which most of the ties
were sold last year, the price I'm
mediately jumped to Is cents,
from which it was run up to
81 25, at which price ties have
been quoted for the last several
weeks. The latest dictum makes
the price 81 81 spot cash and $1.36
for August delivery. This is to
merchants in large lots. To farm
ers the cost Will be 8 to 10 cents
a bundle more.
With the complete control Of
the business now enjoyed by the
bagging and tie trusts 1t can very
easily be seen that these concerns
are in position to squeeze the
farmers Of the South at their
pleasure. For several years the
cotton planters have secured
these supplies at reasonable
prices, but this will evidently
not be the case this year. Being

To Prevent the Ravages of
Bud Worms.

| do not recollect the scientific
name of this little worm, but
farmers have doubtless expert
enced its depredations sufficient.
ly to know what it is. 1t is q
small white worm that drills a
hole into the stalk of corn lit
tie above the roots, causing the
bud to die.
A remedy that would prevent
this destruction would be worth
much to the farmers if they could
generally be induced to adopt it,
but that appears to be the rub.
When planting time comes they
get in great hurry and conse.
quently adopt the plan that will
enable them to get through the
quickest. But if we consider the
time frequently lost in planting
and especially the loss Incident
to having corn of different ages,
some large and some small, it IL
safe to say that it will pay we'll
to take little more time and do
the work properly at the start.
Several remedies have been
mentioned as a protection against
bud worms, at least one of which
i nave found TO Dc about all that
could be desired. / will first give
the details pertaining to this and
will then mention the other rem
edies.
SOAKING CORN IN TAR WATER.
Place the seed corn in any con
venlent light vessel l have some
times used wooden vessel, some
times an old pot. Add water as
warm as the hand can bear IL
until the corn is flooded. Then
add few spoonfu.s of tar from
the Southern pitch pine and mix
we'll by rubbing with the hands.
No particular rule as to quantity
can be given, but the process
should be continued until every
grain has received thin coating
or tar. Let the corn stand III this
same water As hours. | have tried
different lengths of time, but
found the above to be about
right. Corn that | soaked a week
In tar water came up well. |
mention this to show that no or
binary soaking will destroy ger
mlnatiOn.
At the end Of two days there
will seemingly be no tar on the
corn, but by biting some it will
be sound to be strongly impreg
mated, the water having carried
1t In.
Next we take the corn out of
the water and place in some
vessel having an open bottom. |
consider half bushel of corn, at
most, plenty to place in bulk,
lest 1t heat. Cover with cloths
and keep moist by occasionally
pouring tepid water. The vessel
may be placed in some room
pleasantly warm. In a few days
the corn will commence sprout-
ing, when it should be planted,
the sprouts preferably being
about one half inch long, but
have planted with the sprouts
two inches or more long.
The first sprout that starts out
is a root; it may be broken off,
or even cut off close to the grain,
and the corn will still come up
well. But the second sprout that
starts out forms the stalk and it
of course must not bo broken.
In dropping the corn it will pay
to select and crop the sprouted
grains only, dropping according
to the stand wanted, / grain for
one stalk, two grains for two
stalks and 80 on. To make said
selection take a handful of corn
in the left hand, with the right
select and drop the sprouted
grains. AT the last or 8 grains

ally be left; these would ordina.
rily make missing hills and should
be rejected. This plan of drop
ping may seem tedious, but by
taking pains the replanting and
thinning can virtually be done
at one operation. Two hands can
drop about the same quantity Cf
sprouted corn that one hand can
of unsprouted.
ANOTHER PLAN.
When the corn is planted in
drills it would doubtless pay to
construct a wheel after the man.
ner Of a wheel-barrow and ar
range sm~l II pockets at one side
according to the distance desired
for the corn. In operation, one
hand should roll the wheel in the
drill furrow and another deposit
the sprouted corn in the pockets ;
when the pockets are turned
down the corn will drop out, thus
deposlting it at regular distances
apart.
An additional yield of from 5
to Is bushels of corn per acre can
thus frequently be secured over
ordinary yields; consequently 3
wheel for dropping will pay re-
markably we'll.
Corn soaked and sprouted as
above, has with me, virtually
proven specific against the bud
worm.
TESTED BY ANOTHER PARTY.
Some yeers ago my advice was
sought by party who has an old
mill pond, land that had formerly
been flooded, that was badly in.
tested with bud worms. He in
formed me that in order to get
stand he usually dropped from 6
to 7 grains of corn In a hill. i
recommended tar soaking and
sprouting as above. | afterwards
saw him and ask ed him how he
liked it. He informed me to the
effect that it gave as good re-
suits as he could desire.
| will state here for the above
plan to prove effective the corn
must be soaked and sprouted as
directed. Dry corn annolnted
with tar and planted is at most
only a partial protection; ; why
this is so | do not know nor is il
essential to know.
Or course, no machinery, other
than that described can be en-
plo1ed IN planting sprouted
corn. When much time and labor
expended In fertllizlng and pre-
parlng land it will pay we'll to
plant to the best possi BILE advant.
age, regardless Of the little extra
time that may be needed.
OTHER PLANS FOR PREVENTING
PROF. MAPEs' PLAN.
Prof. Mapes recommends that
four ounces of carbonate Of am.
monia be dissolved in a gallon OF
water and that the seed corn be
soaked therein. He claims that
it will prevent the ravages of in.
sects and is also valuable fer
tiliZer, canslng the corn to take a
dark green color when it first
comes up.
There is danger Of the above
destroying termination and |
suggest II hours as sufficiently
long for soak. The corn should
be tested by sprouting before
planting.

DEATH OF HOMER HAYES.
Died Saturday Night After Long Illness.
sDover News Notes.

DOVER, June 18.-The sad intelli-
gence reached US on Sunday morning
of the death of Mr.. j. H. Hayes of
Sasser. Mr.. Hayes had been in very
bad health for two wears or more. and
his friends had been expecting the
end for several months. He was af
tiicted with that fearful and dreaded
disease, consumption, and no one
thought that he would survive the Sc
we're weather Of winter; but when
spring opened he seemed to improve
and both he and his friends were hope
full. About two weeks ago, however,
he was taken suddenly worse, and not
withstanding that all that medical
skill could do was done for him, he
passed ava; last Saturday night about
II o'clock. Mr.. Hayes was for several
years a citizen of this place, and'quite
number of our people attended his
funeral at Chickasawhatchee Sunday
evening. He leaves a wife and five
little children to mourn his death, be-
sides large circle of relatives and
friends.
Abundant rain has fallen throughout
this section during the past few days.
and the crop prospects are good-so is
the prospect for grass.
Mr.. and Mrs. I. j. Mabry went up

CUT THE NIGHT .WATCHMAN
FELIX WEIGH AND EDGAR
MILLER HAVE DIFFICULTY.
Mr. WEIGH Painfully Cut in Sew
eral Places With a PoCk-
ct Knife.

At the shops of the Dawson Lumber
and Machine Co., about o'clockl Sat
urday night, Mr.. Felix WEIGH, the
night Waterman for the company, was
severely cut by Mr.. Edgar Miller, zone
of the workmen.
There were no eye witnesses ito the
ARRAY and the exact particulars have
not been learned. 1t seems, however,
that Mr.. Mr.. Miller climbed over the
rear of the fence around the yards after
the gates had been closed for the night
for the purpose of getting something he
had left in the shop when he quit work
and was accosted by Mr.. WEIGH, who
said something to him about the en-
trance OF any one into the yards after
work hours being against the com
panys rules. Mr.. Miller's reply led to
an exchange of words which resulted
in difficulty and ended in Mr.. WEIGH
receiving two cuts with a pocket knife,
one on the head and one on the left
arm. DR.. Lasseter dressed the wounds,
and while both are severe and painful
neither is of a character that will prove
fatal. The one on the arm extends from
the shoulder to the elbow, and was cut
to the bone almost the entire distance.
1t is said by some that WEIGH, who
had a pistol, threatned to shoot Miller,
but Mr.. WEIGH contradicts this.
Mr.. Miller left the yards Immediately
after the atfray. No arrest has been
made.
