Some idea of the State Of Texa

Some idea of the State of Texas
may be formed with the aid of a
few statistics. Its extreme length
is 62O, and it's breadth 765 miles,
comprising an area of 265, 78C
square miles. 1t has 243 counties,
10, 100000 acres Of improved farm.
ing land, and farm property ol
the value of 1862, 100000. The
number of it's farms is 352, 100.
It's population as shown by the
last census was 3,04S, 710, being
in point of numbers the sixth State
in the Union. Those which ex.
ceed it are New York, Pennsylvania,
Ohio, Missouri and Illinois, ag.
gregate population is 28,656, ,769
Yet their total area is only 262 Ole
square miles. This is less by 3,
ITO square miles than Texas, which
wonld not be equalized were Con
necticut aud Rhode Island lhrown
III. /, the population Of Texas
were as great to the square mile as
New York it would be 40 ,598, 220
or nearly twice that Of the five
States mentioned.

THE LEMON AS MEDICINE

The value of lemons in the treat
ment of both rheumatism and con-
sumption is now known to be very
great. The treatment is to begin
with one or two a day and gradu-
ally increase the number. In one
case Of rheumatism twenty-five
lemons a day were the dose for a
time. AS preventative of illness,
however, a half a lemon day is
all that should be taken; that is,
if taken every day, year in and
year out. A half a lemon in a cup
of hot water taken an hour before
breakfast (without any sugar. will
annihilate the darkest Of dark
brown tastes in ones mouth. If
you make practice Of eating more
butter and sugar than is good for
you take lemon and hot water
every morning.-MarvelPs Tais.

THE BOIL WEEvIL PEST.

The fact that the cotton crop for
1904, by all signs, is likely to be
no better than that of 1903 gives
great interest to the work now be.
ing done by the general govern
ment to check the cotton boil vice.
vii. While the weevil affects mainly
the crop Of Texas, the indications
that the area affected is gradually
extending northward will inevitably
have their effect on the cotton mar
ket. The shortage in Texas along the
past season may be taken as a
gauge by which to foretell the
crop of the present year.
For instance, one OF the largest
planters of Robertson county
whose land is typical of that Of
most of the cotton region, reports
that where on $50 acres in 1885,
sixty-five bales were produced, thf
same land in 1903 yielded bnt fif
teen bales. With al insect pest
sure to reduce the crop, the Other
misfOrtunes incident to the season
caused by late planting, we
springs, severe drought and food
ing summer rains combined Il
make the situation very serious

DISCIPLINE OF THE WOOD PILE.

Every human male man who pos
sesses even lingering taint of
temper should keep an ak and
wood pile handy, that he may rush
out and work off his wrath wnen it
wakes fierce. There is nothing in
this vain old world that will send
a man back to his appointed work
with a more wilted collar and truer
comprehension of himself than
thirty minutes wrestling with a
ull-favored AK. He can use it so
lercely on the wood. All the fury
of his nature, all the hate he feels
for his enemy, he can infuse into
the ak handled and how the chips
will fly! And presently it begins
to dawn upon the man that he is
feeling more calm. Evidently, he is
experiencinga a change of heart. He
does not hate his enemy at all He
changes his stroke, and begins to
chop on the Italian system of pen
manship-the up strokes heavy
and the down strokes light. He
rather loves his enemy now. At
last he puts off all his failing
strength in one terrific blow. He
misses the tip with the AK and
smites the chopping block with the
handle. A tingle as though he
had swallowed an alarm clock goes
from elbow to hip and back again,
the Ak drops from his powerful
hands, and weak, limp, nerve
less, perspiring, trembling, gasp
ing thing, he staggers to the house,
lies down on the first thing that
looks like lounge, and sis ready
to die. There isn't fear or q fault
in his heart. Death has no terrors,
and life has no temptations for
him. He has chopped out all his
baser nature, and he is just as
ethereal and spiritual as he can be
on this side Of the Jordan. 1t is a
great medicine.-Bob Burdette.

PROPOSED NURSE TRUST.

The effort of q few of the trained
nurses who are practicing their pro
fessioniu this State to have the Leg
islature organize them into trust,
so that they may control all the
other trained nurses in Louisiana,
is remarkable piece of assurance.
There are at this time nearly 300
of these professional ladies who
are engaged in the pursuit of their
most meritorious calling in the
State. The actual number is 296.
OF these, twenty-three who grad
mated in other States, and ffty-fve
who are graduates of Louisiana
hospitals, in all seventy eight, have
banded together, forming an or
ganization or trust for which they
wish formal Legislative sanction,
with power to make rules and regu-
lations for the government and
control of the other 2lS nurses,
and to subject them to examina-
ton, and to reject them and vir-
tually exclude them from prac-
ticing their profession in the State.
The idea that one fourth should
control the other -fourths in
any trade, calling and profession
is untrue to our democratic -repub-
lican system, unjust to a great
majority that possesses equal rights
in law and in equity, and intended
to create monopoly in the bust
ness of nursing the sick, something
that is repugnant to every consid-
Grafton of humanity.
No reason of public benefit or
justice exists why any monopoly of
trained nurses for the sick should
be created, and every demand of
wise public policy and of public
propriety forbids any such action.
So far as it concerns the gentler
sex, the fact remains that 78 wo-
men want to control 21S Of their
sex, something to which these 218
most positively object. If there
ever was case in which the ma
jority is entitled to rule, here it is.
