know nothing about the weevil or its raw
ages, though it seems to be common
throughout Qua .emala. Such damage as
1t infiicts the Indians aseribe Mr.. Cook
says. to superstitious causes, such as the
failure of the owner of the land to abb
stain from salt at the time of planting.
But they do know that they cannot raise
cotton without the presence of the ant,
and they regard it as embodying the good
spirit of the cotton.
The question has been raised whether
this Guatemalan ant, being of tropical
origin. could live in our southern states.
Mr.. Cook is sire that it could, since the
boil weevil itself is o. tropical origin and
has learned to hibernate in Texas. More
over, the ant excavates nest three feet.
in the ground, where it would be entirely
safe against any frost that visits our
southern states 1t seems to us that the
most serious difficulty in this matter will
be found in the eviden. inability of the
ant to keep up with the weevil in the
matter of propagation. single pair of
boil weevils will multiply into millions in
a Single season, whereas the ant is propa
gated, as bees are by queens and it may
take much time and trouble to introduce
a sufficient number of these royal moth
ers to establish permanent colonies.

Wealth In Cotton Seed.

Before the civil war the wealth shut
up in cottonseed was unknown, and
In many cases the seed numbered the
gins and the ground. In fertile dis
tricts ginners required their custom
ers to cart away the seed of their cot
ton, so valueless was it considered.
Owners of eottonseed do not need any
compulsion on that score nowadays.
The seed has become cottons chief by
product
Ooil mills have been erected until
upwards of six hundred are now seen
In the south. Bvery cotton growing
district Is equipped with mills, and no
town considers itself we'll treated if
1t has not at least one of them. These
mills are turning out from 10000, 900
to 115,000,000 gallons of oil a year,
three-fourths of which is consumed
at home. It is supplanting lard in the
kitchen, being more wholesome and
equally satisfactory. 1t is used In the
manufacture of soap, and new uses
are found for 1t every year. The
exports of oil range from $4,000, 200 to
50,000,000 gallons a year, but if there
we're no export demand the entire
product would be taken in home con
sumption.
Cottonseed meal and cake is alsC
largely exported, while much of 1t is
fed at home, together with the hulls
from the vast crop. The oil mills
crush about sixty-five per cent of the
seed crop, and the aggregate is slowly
rising each year. The plant will be
fully utilized when the stalks are
transformed into paper, and more at.
tention should be given to this branch
Of the subject. AS the boil weevil adj
vances the stalks will have to be cut
and gathered for burning. II they
could be gathered for pulp-making
purposes, another by-product would
be added to cotton, and the south
would be dotted with paper mills as
It now isI with oil mills.

AIabama's Veteran Senators.

A premature senatorial canvass has
been pulled off in this state by en-
terprising correspondents, and mid
summer madness and political idle
ness have promoted 1t. All sorts of
candidates have been trotted out, and
their PAGES voted by those who had
nothing else to do, and the subject has
even spread to other states But in
other states it has been discounten-
anced. Says the Memphis CONNER
Appeal:
General Pettus was reelected in 1901
for term of six years, and we do not
understand how it is that he comes up
In 1907 for another election. Before he an
nounced himself as a candidate for re-
election Congressman Bankhead made a
still hunt campaign for the senatorship,
falling, however, to get a single vote.
The venerable soldier and jurist was
unanimously chosen and his campaign
cost him only one dollar, the registration
f'[Att'NCA
years ago, but 1t was choked or early
in the campaign. IT is to be hoped that
he will have none this fall for he is be-
yond doubt the foremost man in Ala
bama and the public man in the south,
who has the widest fame. He and his
distinguished colleague are an honor to
their state and to their section, and If
Alabama turns either of them down It
will be to her everlasting shame and dis
grace. They are giants compared to
those who are opposing them. Their po-
sition in the senate is In the front rank.
Morgan has made for himself a place In
American history and except lancey and
King and Walker, he is the foremost
man Alabama has produced Keep the
veterans in congress. They are younger
and stronger than the raw recruits"
Alabama will second the motion
when the right time comes, and she
will do it with an emphasis that will
not be misunderstood. The current
discussion Is altogether untimely, but
In 1906 the voters of Alabama, will
speak, and there will be no hot air"
in their expressions. The Commercial
Appeal is too far away to distinguish
between "hot air" and simon pure
public sentiment. Our veteran sena-
tors enjoy the possession of the latter,
while their alleged opponents have a
monopoly of the former. The truth is,
our two senators have no opponents.

Too Much Law.

Fourteen thousand statutes are
turned out yearly from fifty law fac
tories, state, territorial and national.
Fully as many more are ground out
from municipal law factories, some of
which are as powerful and far-reach.
ing as those of state or territorial or
igin.
From congress down to Podunk
there is too much legislation. Too
many laws are poured out annually on
an unoffending people. True all do
not apply to all the people. AS a
rule the vast flood consists of dupli-
Gates which are In force in limited
areas. But when the duplicates are
taken out 1t will be found that there
is a vast overproductlon of law in this
country, an oyerproduction far exceed
ing that of any other country. The
law habit is becoming worse than the
drug store habit, or any other habit
that is capable of excess.
Alabama has appreciated the i'm
portance of reducing the output, and
her Legislature now meets quadren
nially. The plan was considered Of
doubtful expediency when it was
adopted, but experience is fast show
ing its wisdom. A supply of state
laws is not needed oftener than once
in four years, and the trend in al
states is towards less legislation. AL
feel that the present output is ex
cessive.
An excess of laws leads to disre
gard of all law, and public sentiment
begins to appreciate the Importance
of limiting the production and in
creasing the enforcement of laws The
two should go hand in hand They
naturally will. Familiarity breeds
contempt, and too many laws lead di
rectly to non-enforcement and even tt
contempt for law.

"sAND-clAY ROADS,"
the New York World.

From the New York World.
A sandy road is bad In dry weather
and only tolerable after rain. A clay
road is fair in dry weather IL not rutted
too badly, but in wet weather drops the
wagon wheel tic the hub. They have a
way in the south of combining sand and
clay In making a road good in all
weathers.
The sand and clay must be thoroughly
mixed so thar all the particles come IN
contact with each other; then the sand
keeps the clay dry and the clay gives
the mixture an element of solidity. Some
of these mixed roads nicely rolled have
lasted for five years without deteriora-
ton.
1t wouldn't be so easy in New York to
build roads on this principle. Frost is
fatal. The roadbed must be dug out below
the frost line, and the trench filled with
the mixed sand and clay and the result
| is to last.
