TALKS ON EXPOSITION
Burton Holmes Tells Kemper Hall
Girls of Visit to the Great
Paris Exhibition.
NATIONAL PAVILION PRAISED.
With Better Position and More Space the
Artistic Features of the Building Would
Be More Clearly Revealed.

Those who have not had the pleas
ure of visiting the Paris Exposition
might form some idea of it's beauty
and magnifcence from the lecture OF
Burton Holmes on that subject. For
an hour and a half last night the
we'll known lecturer took the students
at Kemper Hall and a few invited
guests through the wonder OF that
marvellous exposition, and with the
help of large number of pictures re-
vea1ed many of the chief attractions
of the French capital.
Mr.. Holmes in introducing his sub
iect spoke of the great difficulty OF
telling in a short time what it had
taken him a hundred days to see even
in the most cursory way. He must be
congratulated on the skill with which
he has chosen the pictures for this
special lecture and on the excellent
descriptions that he gave of the var1-
Gus buildings and works of interest in
the exposition. In a subject of this
kind it is impossible to know what to
tell and what to omit. Mr.. Holmes
has experienced great discretion IN
this respect and the result is very
fine resume of all that is worth seeing
in the great show across the water.
Among the pictures the most beaut1-
full were those representing the palace
of electricity and the "Chateau d'eau"
with all it's changing shafts of bril-
lance and color. No photograph,
however, can reproduce those wonder
full effects of co1oring and those qulv-
ering shafts of light. One has to
imaging the strange effects produced
on all this Illuminated water by the
clear rays from the searchlight on the
Eiffe1 tower. The national pavilions
along the Rue des Nations were all ex-
hibited in their turn, and the building
of the United States won word OF
praise from the lecturer in spite of the
unfair criticisms which have been
passed upon it by the correspondents
of the several papers. The building
needs a better position and more space
to reveal it's artistic beauty.
After the lecture an exhibition was
given of moving pictures representing
a flower fight on the Bots de Boulogne,
the moving sidewalk, the Eife1 tower
and other views of the exposition.
Sousa's band also was shown with the
crowds of attendant and admiring
Frenchmen. The camera failed tc
catch the changing lights of fete by
night on the Seine, and the pictures
gave only shadowy idea of the mag
nificence of the carnival.
Next year Mr.. Holmes intends tc
visit Russia and make the Trans
Siberian trip from the Krem1in to the
gates of Pekin. This trip will be the
subject of a winter lecture which some
of the Kenosha people may have a
chance to hear. The lecture on Paris
is given in the cities in which Mr.
Holmes usually lectures and it is spoken
of very highly.

Had His Royal Face Washed.

One of the many stories going the
round of Germany about the crown
princes childhood has almost become
a household word with his future sub
jects, so frequently has it been told
in nurseries Nothing afforded the
young heir, as a youngster Of 6 or Z,
greater pleasure than to watch the
sentries salute as he passed in or out
of the castle at Potsdam, and the poor
soldiers were kept at 1t from night
till morning This delight was equaled
only by his aversion to water, and the
poor woman who was charged with his
toilet averred that he lay awake nights
devising a means to escape the cold
morning bath
One day the child rushed in upon the
emperor and the empress as they sat
at breakfast with a furious complaint
against the sentry, who had neglected
to salute him as usual that morning.
The emperor drew his son closer to
him, examined him and then replied:
Il don't wonder, my son, the poor
sentinel did not recognize the crown
prince in this dirty-faced little boy,
so | cannot have him reprimanded."
1t was the last time the prince ever
refused to have his face washed.

The Crops.

They were never in any worse
condition within our recollection,
and possibly never so bad.
In 1886. aud in 1892 almost alb
solute failures were made on ac-
count of wet weather. In 1892
however the rains came later
beginning in July and lasting
through the month, preventing
any possible outcome in the crop
because of the damages, and the
lateness of the season. If the
rains were to stop now, and the
crops could be cleaned, and get
in a 6ne state of growth by the
middle Of July moderate crop
might still be made, as all the
squares that come upon cotton up
to August Goth can be relied
upon to open. if not destroyed
by worms, or too early frost.
The great object to be attained
now is to keep the water off the

that had been double furrowed
when the rains began made the
best yield, but that caugh: on
the sharp furrow. and where the
middle were not ploughed out to
it promptly, made almost an en-
tire failure If it continues to
rain now the p!ows must be run
without stopping, putting the
middles out to the cotton. Where
the drills and sides of the bed are
grassy it should be barroed off
shallow, and wide, thus wrapping
up the grass in the middle, the
only way to kill it. The drill
should be hoed. and after the
midd es have lain about four
days to scald, and kill the grass,
they should be plowed out with
a turning pillow throwing dirt
back to the cotton. The only
way to manage grass in wet
weather is with the turning
plow by covering it up, heating
and scalding it.
The Canton times., 1900-06-22
The Cotton Situation.

1t is evident that European
cotton buyers are considerably
alarmed by the short supply of
cotton now available in the
United States. The report of
the United States Treasury
Bureau of statistics show that
the exports for April, 1900, are
about so per cent greater than
for April, 1899, not withstauding
the price or cotton is about so
per cent greater than a wear ago.
European buyers were for long
time very skeptical about the
shortage of the American sup
ply. Having kept out of tie
market so long they now find
themselves without any cotton
and the new crop not availa BILE
until next fall, and they are
making quite a rush to secure
what little can still be found in
this country.
While there is every reason
to think that our next cotton
crop will be a very large one. at
the same time prices for cotton
have risen so high ard the pres
ent supply is so extremely small,
it would seem to US quite fair to
infer that the crop now planting
will average good price when
marketed next eI.-South-

Crop Prospects.
CAPT. PARCHMAN SAYS THAT
THE DELTA PLANTERS ARE
VERY GLOOMY.

Clarion Ledger, 10th;
Capt. j NJ Parchman, warden
of the penetentiary, returned
Sunday morning from the delta
where he has been for the past
several days looking after the
State crop.
Capt. Parchman says that the
crop situation IN the delta con.
tinues very gloomy and the
planters very much discouraged
at the outlook. Rain falls at in
tervals of every few hours
throughout the delta district and
nearly all of the cotton crop is
badly in the grass. There has
been no opportunity for farm
work for nearly three
weeks and unless there is a ces-
sation of the downpOur within
the next few days the crop will
be irretrievably ruined. The
State crop is in a better condi.
tion than could ordinarily be ex.
pected, being comparatively free
from grass, but the excessive
moisture has retarded growth
and given to the plant a puuy
appearance.
Capt. Parchman has been in
several sections of the State
during the past ten days and
says that, generelly speaking,
the crop prospect is the worst
he has ever seen. He is not q
pessimist by nature and bases
the statement on what he has
actually seen.
A report from the delta coun-
ties says that the cotton planters
of that section are sending out
large orders for turkeys in
order to save their crops from
destruction by grasshoppers.
The turkey eats all the time he
is awake and prefers grasshop-
pers to anything else, while a
grasshopper diet results in won-
derfully fine INTERPRETATION

Value of Regular milking
Editor Southern Farmer:

Editor Southern Farmer:
Cows are creatures of habit,
and the habits of their owners
are reflected in their milk yield.
The dairyman who milks his
COWS at a regular hour, night
and morning, will secure an
eighth or tenth more milk from
them than though there WIS a
variation of an hour or two in
the milking hours every day.
The writer has seen this prac.
tically tested to his satisfaction
on some large dairy farms in
Central New York.
The methodical dairymen, as
regular as clock work, came
out ahead of time.
Right now, at the beginning of
the active dairy season, is the
best possibly time to put this
rule Of regularity into practice.
Dairymen should make it a rule,
say to milk their cows at six
O'Clock in the morning and six
O'Clock at night. After this rule
has been once established on the
premises. i. should be like the
laws of the Medes and Persians,
unalterable, and respected ac-
cordingly.
1t is such a common occurrence
to let other farm duties interfere
with the regular care and milking
of cows, that it may be hard to
make some believe who ought to
know better, that strick adher-
ance to method has anything to
do with dairy success.
It can safely be set down that
if a man is conducting what he
calls mixed farming" that his
COWS can be made to pay more in
proportion than any of his other
agricultural interests. This will
not be consumated however un-
der ordinary care e'and usage.
He must give his milch cattle
extraordinary attention in order
to reap the benefit of their full
capabilities.
This "mixed farming bust
ness. of which dairying is sup
posed to form an integral part is
the cause of a whole lot Of inferior
COWS, poor milk and butter, and
meager profits. 1t is high time
that dairying, under such condi-
tions, should be regarded at its
true worth, both for the profit OF
agriculture and the quality OF
milk products.
Do not stop to hoe a five cent
hill of beans, when you should
be milking fifty dollar COW, or
one that would be worth fifty
dollars if she were MIXED regu-
larly.
Don't call to your assistance a
NANCY, worthless cur in driving
up the cows. when every hurried
step they take causes their blood
to surge toward fever heat, aud
result in milk that will undergo
dangerous Preventative changes
very quickly.
