Dallas, Texas, August 22.-The Gal
weston Dallas News will tomorrow pub
lish reports from 522 correspondents in
Texas, Oklahoma and Indian Territory
on cotton crop. These reports are of
uniform date, August Il.
Comparison is made with the crop Of
1903 at the corresponding period. The
summary shows that the average con-
dition in Texas is 3.25 per cent higher
than last year; Indian Territory 25;
Oklahoma AZ higher. The figure at
the time of the News last preceding
report were 9.5 per. cent, l6 and 33 l-3
respectively. There has been mark
ed deterioratioSSf the crop in the SOU
thern half of xas during the past
month.
In some locs IS of this reign this
has been due ly to drouth, but in
others the boil Bevils and bollworms.
Elsewhere in fNs s .,3tion almost inces-
SAINT rains b; damaged the crop by
rot and rust I'D the boil weevils
have wrought great havoc. Picking
has been retardeu. In many counties

practically over, while predictions are
reported from many places that all the
cotton will be gathered by September
Is to Oct. l.
Boil worms seem to be distributed
all over the cotton growing territory,
being found even upon the staked
plains and in ahOkloma and Indian
Territory. In northern Texas, how
ever, they do not seem to be doing any
serious damage except in a few
counties.
The boil weevil has apparently wild.
ened the zone of its operations, being
reported as far north as Paris but is not
menacingly numerous there. The
crop generally is doing well. In north
east and northwest Texas there has
been some appreciation above the July
condition due to favorable weather
Picking will become general in that

The South Carolina Federation oil
Women's Clubs at its recent meeting
in Newberry, made an ARTS and
Crafts department. for the purpose OF
stimulating interest in the home in
dustries among the women of the
state.
This work will consist of hand-work
of any description, made by the hands
of a South Carolina woman; laces, EN-
broidery, basketry, re-blnding books,
woven rugs, carpets, quilts, etc.
Every effort will be made to create
a demand for this work, and orders
will be solicited. All women in this
state are urged to send samples OF
their handlwqrk.
1t is especially desired throught the
movement to reach the women of the
rnral districts, showing the possihlli-
ties open to them, both as wage-earn-
ers and home teachers along these
lines, to revive, if possible, the old
in its simplest form is susceptible OF
excellent results.
Woven rugs for example, when
wrought into artistic designs and har-
monious colors, are in great demand
and bring high prices.
1t is the hope aud intention of this
department to have large and fine
exhibit in the Women's Building in
the coming state fair, therefore, we
wish to urge all parties who antici-
pate sending work, to communicate
with us at once, in order to have
time to work up good exhibit.

it was necessary to break the plastering
on each side for the full length Of the
building. In takingdown the partition
walls considerable plastering was
knocked off, and when the brick ma
sons got hold of things they cut holes
in the tin but the roof raisers did no in
jury to either the tin or the plastering.
The details of this work are given
as suggestive to the next man who
has like job to do.
A tin roof on a brick building can
be safely raised. The greatest cost
and the greatest labor is in the prep

This roof was raised perpen dicularly

RAISING THE ROOF.
Prophets Of Evil Were Disappointed Result in
Difficult Undertaking Hugh Howard and his Assistants
Did the Work.

Several weeks ago the knights OF
Pythias in Abbeville, contracted for q
hall or lodge room as we'll as for
smaller rooms for the various pur-
poses of the order. The ceiling of the
building was only ten feet above the
floor. The knights of Pythias insist
ed that the ceiling should be not less
than fourteen feet above the floor.
SThe raising of the ceiling and roof,
which was 25 by 12O feet, and weighing
tons, was no small job. 1t was a Job,
too, the like of which had not been
done in this community. Years Of ex-
perience at the carpenters business
was of no avail in this case, and it was
thought that the job could not be done
by home folks at all though some men
were not unwilling to try 1T at the
owners risk the wisest thought that
house movers from some of the cities
wonld have to be called in. The work
was started, and after about four days
work the owner of the building had
misgivings, and the workmen were
paid off. The next week, under the
leadership of Mr.. Hugh Howard, the
work was resumed, and pressed to
completion without hurt or accident
to person or property. During the
progress Of the work the prophets of
evil had their say, and these are some
of the things which were said:
The persons at work could not raise
it.
If raised, it would be thrown into
the street.
If raised, it would fall and kill the
workmen and wreck the building.
It would be cheaper to send to At
lanta to get house-movers to do the
work.
The risk in raising the roof was great
and the work was dangerous.
Ifa wind should come, the whole
thing would be destroyed.
1t would be cheaper to saw the roof
into ten foot strips, and raise 1t section
by section.
1t would be cheaper to tear the tin
off fand use such of it again as might
not be ruined.
The tin would be ruined, and 1t
would be cheaper to tear it off, and
put on a new roof.
The brick which were built in the
windows on which were to rest sills
for the support of the roof would not
answer the purpose.
The roof should have bee n raised by
supports on the floor.
The plastering would all be broken.
It was urged that twenty-four men
should be employed to turn each one
jack at the same instance.
The owner would spend his estate at
the work and then fail.
Knowing ones said they could do in
two days the work which others re-
quired weeks to do.
Some would like to see how the
work was done, but didn't want to
20 there and run the risk of being kill
ed.
These are some of the speeches
which we recall, some of them were
made scores of times, by different
persons.
One man came with his wagon,
fourteen miles to carry away the
waste tin.
The owner of the building consulted
every man whom he thought could
possibly give him some suggestion or
hint as to how to proceed. But no
body had ever done such job and no
suggestions were offered which were
adopted, but many were offered. And
so it was, an inexperienced mechanics

The writer of this letter is Filipi-
no. The letter is printed just as it was
written. Quintano is a great admirer
Of America, and it is his ambition to
speak the English language correctly.
His mother tongue is the Vicol dialect,
and was unwritten until the Catholic
priests of the provinces of Camarines
Seur and Albay made written Ian
guage of it in order to inculcate the
Catholic religion. The letter will
show what progress the writer has
made during the three years that he
has been struggling with the language.

KEEP RECORD UP.

The Baltimore & Ohio Railroad may
have good reasons for dispensing with SO
many of its policemen, but it is to be
hoped that there has not been too much
pairing for the good of the service. So
long as the company wants the laws of
the State pertaining to conduct on cars
and the protection of railroad property
observed, it should be willing to aid the
State in the matter The system was
quite beneficial and effective and there
is no one who desires to see 1t impaired
in any way. The railroad company
should have sufficient officers at least to
see that there is no disorderly conduct
ON trains, and, If the police officers must
be taken of. it is hoped that conductors,
brakenen and Other railroad employees
will be clothed with the authority and
the power to do what the policemen DIRE
supposed TO do. =
