Something Of a Sensation.

Something of a sensation was caus-
ed at Meridian among cotton men by
the exhibition of what is supposed to
be a specimen of the Mexican boil
weevil, found in a cotton field near
Hickory, in Newton county. The
specimen was secured by j. L. Wells,
prominent merchant of Hickory,
from the Tidwell plantation. Mr..
Wells said there were plenty of the
insects in the field. He was salts
fed that it was the Mexican boil Vice.

the specimen. It has been sent to

Experiment With Soil Bacteria.

Florence, Ala-W. M. Campbell, an
extensive planter of this place, has
made study of bacteria infection of
soil for various crops and decided to
make test of an acre of cow peas.
He inoculated the seed and the ground
and at the same time planted seed
which had not been iHoculated in un-
occupied ground, but which in other
respects was the same. The result
will be watched with great interest at
harvest time. If the experiment is
successful it will be tried with other

than before the Office was created. II
might prove interesting to some te
give few statistics with regard to
insurance in Mississippi during the
past year. AS was stated in the be-
ginning the totsl amount paid in pre-
miums on life, fire, accident and mis-
cellaneous insurance was over $5,000,-
600. The amount returned for losses
was about one-half that. Old line
life companies collected in premiums
81, ,2S2, ,579.39 and paid in losses $716,-
91O.7S. Fraternal orders collected in
assessments for 1904. Figures not yet
compiled.) $7O3,9O7.91 and paid out
for losses 1864, ,775.15. Fire Compa-
nies collected in premiums $1,972,-
749.07 and paid in losses 1852, ,579.41.
Accident, liability, steam boiler and
other miscellaneous companies col
lected in premiums 0,409.7O and
paid in losses 2,2SS.49. From the
above figures it will be seen that the
rates charged by the old line life and
fire insurance companies is too high
by far, but it is not in the province
of the insurance commissioner to reg
ulate these rates. Some of the fra
ternal orders have their rates too low
as will be seen by a comparison of
the assessments and losses of the
Woodmen of the World which col
lected $160,211.45 and paid in losses
$214, ,352.00. The Endowment Rank
Knights of Pythias collected $119,-
5S2.07 and paid in losses $109,0O0.O0.
The Knights of Honor collected $751;

A new suggestion in the line of
amending the Chinese exclusion laws
has been thrown out by T. M. Doar,
of San Francisco, who is visiting in
Washington. 1t would not only add
thousands of dollars he says, ''to the
yearly revenues of California, but
would benefit the very class of people
who are most bitter in opposition to
the landing of Chinese on our shores.
The law could be so framed as to keep
the Celestials out of the cities, where
they might come into competition
with white wage earners, but to allow
them to go into the rural district,
where they are badly needed, partic-
ula- Fly by the fruit growers. Lack of
such good, reliable labor, such as the
Chinese furnish, retards the growth
and prosperity of our state, and the
yearly introduction of 100000 of
them would be of vast benefit. They
could be brought in with the distinct
proviso that they return in from three
to five years, so that they could never
become permanent residents Of the
state"

report on acreage and condition of the
cotton crop on May 26, the condition
of cotton ON June 25, and for reports
on other crops for June and July. A
very large number of correspondents
will send detailed reports on the cot

May 26 and they have been enjoined
to use the greatest care, especially
for acreage and to base their opinion
upon inquiries as well as upon OBJ

the form of a percentage of last

In all branches of trade dependent on
