tions to planters. The substance Of
those which will probably be turned to
account for this years crop is rs fol-
lows:
First.-Plant early. If possible plant
seed of varieties known to mature ear
iy or at least obtain seed from as far
north as possible. Early varieties in
general, however, having small stalk
and short taproot are adapted only for
rich soils.
Second.-Cultivate the fields thor
oughly. The principal benefit Of this
comes from its influence TO constant
growth in the plant and consequent
early maturity of the crop.
Third.-Plant the rows far apart and
thin out the plants in the rows thor
oughly. On land which will produce
from thirty-fve to forty bushels of
corn the rows should be five feet apart.
Even on poor soil it is doubtful if the
distance should ever be less than four
feet.
Fourth.-There is no doubt that fer
tilizers should be used In cotton grow
ing in Texas, not that the land is poor,
but that earlier crops may be matured.
The diagram represents the territory
in Texas affected by the weevil up to
the beginning of the present year as
given in Mr.. Hunters report. The low
er top line indicates the limit of the re-
gion In which the weevils are to be
found Gin all cotton fields" The re-
naming portion is the region in which
isolated colonies exist. On the north
the weeviI has been found in the vi
finity of Sherman, only q few miles
south Of the Red river. The nearest
approach to Shreveport is about fifty
miles away. In the region from about
the latitude of Dallas to the Red river
the pest is only scatteringly present,
and Mr. Hunter states that 1t will re-
quire about two years to increase so as
to reduce the normal production of cot
ton materially. Ia Louisiana the Wee
VII is known as existing in the western
edge of Sabine parish (marked in black

the place TO strike
Boss of the University Of Minnesota,
an expert in the dressing of beef, has
given in a recent farmers bulletin
plain instructions on the butchery,
airing and keeping Of meat on the
farm, which are timely and valuable.
Mr.. Boss makes number of note
worthy suggestions about handling the
animal just previous to slaughter.
Summing them up thirty-six hours
fast, plenty of water up to the time OF
killing, careful handling and rest he
considers all important III securing an
attractively colored carcass that will
keep well.
A seven ilsch curved skinning knife
at So cents, an eight inch straight
sticking knife at 80 cents, a fourteen
inch steel at 81, twenty-eight inch
meat saw at 81, candlestick scraper
at 25 cents and an aX are all the tools
really essential to rapid dressing. For
raising the carcass of a beef from the
floor or ground a block and tackle,
with six inch pulleys, will answer the
purpose very well.
The first step recommended by Mr..
Boss in killing and dressing beef is
to secure the animal so that it cannot
get away under any emergency. For
this purpose Il rope three-fourths of an
inch in diameter should be used. Put
a slip moose In one end, with q knot
just far enough from the moose to pre-
vent choking when drawn tight. 1t
should at the same time allow the
moose to draw tight enough so that
there will be no danger of escape If
the rope becomes slack. If the beast
has horns pass the moose. over the head
back of the ear and horn on the right
side, but in front of the horn on the
left side Of the head. This leaves the
face bare and does not draw tightly on
the throat. Where q dehorned or
polled beast is to be secured the moose
must be adjusted around the neck. At
tach an ordinary hayfork pulley to a
post close to the ground or to the barn
floor or sill. Pass the rope through it
and draw the animals head down as
close as possible. Stun completely by

head at the point where lines drawn
from the eye on either side to the base
of the horn on the opposite side would
intersect.
Bleed by sticking the animal just in
rrUur or rfIc stcrzu-zzi or-t5rrrrtbcrrc.
To do this properly requires practice
and close observation. Stand in front
of the neck Of the animal with the
back toward the body. Place one foot
against the jaw and with the other
hold back the front legs. Reaching
down between the feet, lay open the
skin from breastbone toward the chin
for distance of ten or twelve inches,
using the ordinary skinning knife. In
sert the knife with the back against
the hreastbone and the tip pointed di-
rectly toward the spinal column at the
top Of the shoulders, cutting just un-
der the windpipe and about five to six
inches in depth. The vein and artery
cross just at this point, and if they are

asserted that it is spreading north

eventually enter the other cotton states.

THE CUSTOMARY ABSENCE OF TRUTH.

The well known absence of truth in most of the matter published in the evening paper, and the notorious per version of truth in some of it, is of such common occurrence, that 1t would be impossible for any other pa per endeavoring to print the news to correct these statements and have thing else. This has become a fact so well established that but little at ,ention is paid to what may appear in its columns. Therefore, the bile from which Is stomach was emptied in its last evenings issue, will be received for what it is worth by the limited number of persons who may see it.
 The Review did print the Great Reg ister of the City of Bisbee, and be lieves it did the work well. IL agreed to furnish 10 the city fifteen copies, which al a meeting of the City Coun- cil was made twenty, that being over the number which the city fathers deemed necessary after counting up
 
 would be furnished.
 They were completed and delivered 10 the city clerk on Sunday afternoon, nearly eighteen hours before they were to be used, and there was no pro- test from the city, through its officials, that they were late in delivery or course, these were being printed for the city and not for the personal use of would be Boss" whose term. of office as a city representative is for tunately closed.
 If there is one citizen of Bisbee that will come forward and state that the Review has been peddiing copies of | the Great Register, this paper will pay i to the order of Father Gheldcrf's l church the sum of one hundred dol lars, to use as he sees fit. So much ] for this statement
 Again, the only copy of the Great Register sold, was to the Hon. Nj. E. Cassiday, and for which he paid the
 sum of one dollar The Hon. Lewis Hunt came to the Review office or
 Sunday evening in quest of copy, bu | there being no more bound up, he wa: so informed, but if he wishes copy now, they are ready for those whC may want them at the above price o s1 per copy. The Review, with tn city, as with any individual, has cal ried out it's contract in the delivery o what it was to do for the city. l : has the right to print million copie Of the Register if it so sees fit, and | I, dispose of them as it chooses, by burr ing them up, or giving them away, 2 by selling them. When the Revie' 1 obtained the contract, it did not agre : to stop it's presses, and any other pc
 sons who may desire a copy of th a Great Register of the city, includin ! Mir. Hunt, can have the same at th }. business office of the Review at th e price of $1 per copy. The statement therefore of the ''peddling of the re t ister," the hawking about the city e of the book, and the sale of doze g. copies" together with the bile a o companying the article, will of cours D. fall flat, and must appear so ridic It lous as to cause wonder at the absur n fty of the article.
