POTATO BUGS.

A number OF farmers and gardeners
are complaining Of their Irish potato
crops being destroyed by the potato
bugs. They multiply very rapidly
and it does not take them very long to
ruin a patch OF potatoes. Ii care Is
exercised, Paris green can be sprlnkled
on the vines, and it is said that this
will kill out the bugs. AS the Paris
green is poisonous, care must be exer.
cised that none OF II gets about the

STATE FARM SUFFERS.
Ground Flooded and Cattle and Hogs
 Drowned.

J. W. Bush. warden at State prison NS. b as ported to the State Convict Board that the flood of water unloosed by the breaking of the great dam at Tallasset rushed down upon the iowlands of the State farm and carried everything be. fore it. No crops were lost by the flood as all of them had been gathered. MT Bush reported, however. that so far az he had been able to learn a great maiiy hogs and cattle owned by the State had been drowned. He said he had not had time to 20 entirely over the farm and make a complete investigation, but he knew that certain live stock had been swept away.
 The Montgomery County farm Is located seven miles north of Montgomery on the Lowers Wetumpka road. The stockade and the farm houses occupy the high ground but the State lands run north into the lowlands adjacent to the Tallapoosa River. This part of the farm was di- rectly in the path of the flood and the State would have suffered considerable financial loss if the flood had occurred in the, harvesting season.

RIVERS ARE | ! STILL RISING Critical Point Has Been
 Passed in Alabama. FALLING ABOVE GADsDEN Warnings Sent bv Out by Bureau Save Property.
 Stage at Montgomery Will Probably Reach 4s Feet Today-Rise Reported Every Hour Yesterday.

The oficiais at the local ofice of the Weather Bureau were again kept under a constant strain yesterday answering inquiries about the rivers. At late hour last night Section Director Chaffee said that the critical point had been passed: that the river at Rome. after going up to a2s had begun to fall and that the stages of 4s feet for Montgomery and 5o' feet for Selma, estimated yester- day morning as the extreme that could possibly be reached on this rise. will not he exceeded. and. 1t Is now more than
 probable will not be reached by about two feet. The present river stage is
 highest at Rome since the destructive flood of 1892. and highest at Montgomery and Wetumpka since February, 1900. when we had a stage of 4S.6 feet, which,
 owing to timely warnings did no damage beyond routing out some of the resi- dents in the low ground over in North
 Montgomery. The local ofice of the Weather Bureau warned the people in that section yesterday morning to be in
 readiness to move out today. but. from
 last nights advicee. 1t is now thought they can rest easy, as the water will
 not reach them.
 The Weather Bureau office took hourly
 river readings here yesterday. giving fol- lowing stages:

Following were. stages at other points at D. m. yesterday:
 Resaca, 26.8 feet, at a stand.
 Rome, 32.2 feet, falling slowly
 Gadsden, 22.s feet. rising very slowly.
 Wetampka, 45s feet, rising steadily.
 Selma, 37.o feet, rising steadily
 From the above, 1t is seen that the river here was rising at the rate of about three-tenths of a foot an hour up to 5 p. m. yesterday. but while this appears quite ominous, the Weather Bu- reau officials feel quite certain that after last midnight the rate of rise would de- crease. and that our highest will be attained. probably being not more than 46 feet though, to be on the safe side, 1t was. estimated as 4s feet for the maxi mum In the forecasts and supplemental warnings distributed yesterday. Reports of minor damage and miracu- lous escapes continue to come In. and, had 1t not been for the timely and we'll distributed warnings issued by the Weather Bureau the damage to farming, lumbering and live stock interests along the Coosa and Alabama Rivers would have been appalling.

The Mutuars rank as the largest. strongest, most stable life insurance company in the world is still easily maintained It has returned to policy holders and re- served or expended in their behalf an enormous sum of over one billion dol lars (S1, 900, ,0O0, ,000).
