The young grubs continue to feed as
described until full grown when they
make a slightly deeper burrow and
there change to the pupae from which
emerge the adult beetles as already de-
scrired These beetles escape by sim
ply eating their way out through the
bark, making the characteristic rouId
hole. AS each beetle must make
hole through which to escape and an
other when entering to construct the
egg chamber, the great number OF
holes found in an infested limb are
easily accounted for.
Generations Each Year-Concerning
the number of broods in Georgia each
year, no definite observations have
been made. In Missouri Professor
SteGman found three and sometimes
fourth. Considering the fact that
many adults were observed this year
during the early part of July, and thai
these must have been the third brood,
it is reasonable to predict that We
have four generations to contend with
in The peach orchards Of Georgia.
Remedies.
Clean Outbreaks heretofore stated
the bark-beetles seem to prefer to
breed in dying trees. Herein will be
found the clew to a remedy, or more
properly speaking, prevention. All
dead and dying trees should be destoy-
ed by burning during winter. This work
must be done at least before tle first
of March in order to destroy all the
young borers alternating under the
bark. All adult trees-it is generally
supposed-die during winter, hence it
all wood containing young borers is
destroyed, there will be practically
no borers left to re-infest the orchard
the following spring. Of course there
will always be a few slightly infested
trees left, and from them some adult
borers will develop. A small num-
Der OF adults in March may increase
to considerable numbers by the time

WILT DISEASE OR BLACK-RooT
OF COTTON.
New Feature of the Work of the
Georgia State Board of Entomology

(By r. |. Smith, State Entomologist)
It is desired to call the attention OF
the cotton growers OF Georgia to an i'm
portant line of work that has been tax
en- I'D this year-for the first timely
he Board of Entomology, having fol-
it's object an investigation into &c
cause and prevention of the black
root or wilt disease Of cotton.
By an act of the General Assembly
of 1904 it was made the special duty
of the State Entomologist to provid
for the establishment of a series C
experiments with view to discover
some means whereby the damage from
this serious cotton disease could Ut
in a measure, prevented.
In the fall of 1894 my esteemed pre-
decessor, Mi. Wilmon Newell. began
on this work by making selection o.
cotton-seed from infected cotton fields
al Zeliobee, Ga, where the disease ha
been very bad for numlar of years
1t was intended to use this seed,
which a large number of selection
vera made, for sowing experiment..
plots of cotton in 1905. 1t is on,
justice to the present incumbent {
say that he seed seleced in %04 wa
placed in warehouse which caugh
fire and burned during the month
January, so that our seed was all dc
stroyed.
Fortunately, we were abe to &c
some small lots of seed from the Eu
reau Of Plant Industry at Washington,
D, c., which were used to commence
work this spring,
Experiments conducted by t2e INT
ed States Department cf Agriculture;
have shown that the most promising
line of work to pursue, in tle effort to
discover some relief for the cotton
growers where black-root is prevalent
is the selection of resistant varieties
Of cotton, and by careful cross breed
ing, the development of new Var;ej
which win be resistant to the wilt dis
ease. In addition to this it was deemed
advisable to determine the influence Of
different fertilizers On cotton so IA,
as they effect the reduction or increase
Of the black-root
Extensive experiments have been
carried on this year along the above
lines, with the result that we nave
secured large number CT samples Of
cotton seed which vii be carefully
tested in 1906 and there is every rca.
son to hope that some valuable strains
Of cotton will be developed. Wor,.
Of this nature cannot be made to show
great results the first year, no. even
the second, as each variety of cotton
must be carefully tested under various
conditions before any claim can be
made at to its power of resistance to
the black-root disease, while at the
same time it must prove to be of good
quality before its true value is deter.
mined.

marked resistant qualities. This is a
cotton Of the limbless variety, but of
unusual quality and productiveness.
From the small lot Of seed which we
obtained this spring we will gather a
few bushels Of seed which will be dis
tributed in small lots to number of
cotton growers in sections of the state
where black-root exists, so that it can
be tested under varying conditions. So
Yong as this supply of seed lasts, any
one who has had trouble with the
black-root disease may receive a SAM
pie by applying to the State EntomoIo-
gist. ATLANTA, Ga.)
If not too late when this article is
Sead, the writer wishes to urge each
cotton grower In the black-root Sec
tions, to make selection of seed from
his cotton fields, saving the seed from
plants that show marked resistant
qualities. Seed should be gathered
from healthy plants in the fields
where some cotton died of black-root,
as 1t is certain that such seed may pro-
duce cotton more resistant to the black
root than seed not selected and taken
from all kinds Of plants.
Another thing in connection with the
black-root disease should be mention
ed at this time. The fungus disease
which is the direct cause of blaclhroot.
reeves in the tissue of the cotton
plants, its development in the interior
of the stem being the explanation for
the sudden whiting that many have
had occasion to notice. This fungus
lives in the tissue Of the cotton
and in the rotting stems and branches
Of the infested plants. 1t is evident,
therefore that certain per cent. OF
this over-wintering fungus will be de-
stroyed if the plants are pulled, or
plowed out, and raked into windows
and burned In summer when wilted
plants are noticed they are usually
pulled out and burned at once, but
many plants may have some indication
of disease, as we'll as those actually
killed by the black-root which should
be pulled up and burned This is the
time of year when such work should be
done-iust after the cotton is picked
and all fields where blackroot has
appeared might we'll be cleaned up be
fore cold weather When fighting
disease of this description, it is neces
sary to take advantage of every posi-
Bile chance to reduce the source OF the
disease. The removal of cotton plants
root and branch-will help, and be-
sides it leaves the land in good condi-
ton to pillow later in the year.
1t is our intention to continue the
work that has been sarted unil some
conclusive and valuable results arc Oh
tanned. Other lines Of work. aside
from the ones mentioned herein are
being pursued, but discussion Of tiic-l
would occupy too much space.

The word toast" used for describ-
ing the proposal of the health in an af-
ter-dinner speech, dates back to medic
val times, when the loving cup was
still regarded as an Indispensable fea-
ture of every banquet. The cup would
be filed to the brim with wine or
mead, In the center of which would be
floating piece of toasted bread. At
ter putting his lips thereto. the host
would pass the cup to the guest of
honor. seated on his right hand, and
the latter would in turn pass it on to
his right hand neighbor.
In this manner the cup would circu-
la e round the table, each one present
taking a sip while drinking toward his
right hand neighbor, until finally the
cup would come back to the host, who
would drain what remained, and swal-
low the piece of toast in honor of all
the friends assembled at his table.

Early Days In Colorado.

A recent Denver Republican special
from Trinidad says: The Twenty
third infantry, U. S. A, numbering
about $50 men and thirty-nine officers,
passed through Trinidad going east
this morning over the Santa Fee, direct
from the Philippines. The regiment
was stationed on the island OF Min
danao. and is bound for Fort Madison,
New York, in command OF Col. Phiiip
Read.
Colonel Read entertained several
friends with a story of his early travels
through this section. He stated that
he marched over this entire western
country forty years ago, that he built
the first telegraph line which had its
beginning at Santa Fe and ended at
Los Angeles, and had marched from
Trinidad to the Pacific coast. He also
told a story of General Frank ID. Bald
win, who was until a few weeks ago
the commander of the Department OF
the Colorado. He said that in the year
1868, when the general was Lieutenant
Baldwin of the Fifth infantry, he was
in charge of $50 recruits marching
from Fort Harker, Kansas, to fort
near Santa Fe, New Mexico. Mrs.
Baldwin accompanied her husband on
the trip.
The line of march was over the old
Santa Fe trail across Ration pass. The
ranch of Uncle" Dick Wooton was sit
uated on top of the mountain under
which the big tunnel of the Santa Fe
now runs. Mrs Baldwin became i'll
and was taken to the Wooton ranch,
where a baby girl was born to her,
which was named by Mrs. Wooton,
Juanita. The girl is now married TO

OF Wide Interest.

Breed, Wis, June 26.-Special-
Chas. Y. Peterson, Justice of the Peace
for Oconto Co. has delivered judg-
ment that is of interest to the whole
United States. Put briefly, that judg-
ment is, "Dodd's Kidney Pills are the
best Kidney medicine on the market
today"
And Mr.. Peterson gives his reason
for this judgment. He says: Last
winter l had an aching pain in my
back which troubled me very much.
In the morning l could hardly straight
en- my back. | did not know what it
was but an advertisement led me to
try Dodd's Kidney Pills. After taking
one box can only say they have done
more for me than expected as feel as
well now as ever did before"
Pain in the back is one of the first
symptoms of Kidney disease. If not
cured by Dodds Kidney Pills it may
develop into Bright's Disease. Dia-
betes. Rheumatism or some of the
other deadly forms of Kidney Disease.

THE AMERICAN TYPE
AS DISTINCTIVE AS THAT OF
OTHER RACES.
Prominent Features Of a Century or
More Ago Are Still in Evidence
Children of Uncle Sam Easily Rec
ognized.

There is as distinctive a type OF
American manhood as there is of any
other country. True, the American
people are a mixture. We combine
several different races and bloods.
But the intermixtures has gone on so
gradually. the original American type
always prevalent, that the American
man is a distinct representative OF
civilization. differing from the English
man, the Frenchman and the German,
as much as these differ from each
other.
Examination of the portraits of rev.
dictionary times and those of the pres
ent date show little il any difference
between the men of the earlier times
and those of the present day, save in
the matter of attire. Dress the peo-
pie of the present day as were
the people OF the revolutionary epoch
appareled and nothing could be found
TO establish a notable difference be-
tween the American of to-day and the
American of the last quarter of the
eighteenth century. Food, climatic
conditions and occupations have all
much to do with the physical peculiar
tiles of people. The races that have
for centuries received no admixture
OF foreign blood retain peculiarities
that seem Interchangeable.
What people eat and drink, their
dwelling places, the soil and climate
they inhabit. their worship. amuse-
ments and work all determine looks.
The American Indian when first met
on this continent by adventurous
Europeans lived almost exclusively on
meat and fish diet, the product of
chase and other adventure. He was
tall, thin, muscular and daring. His
eye was bright. his hearing acute. He
looked the fearless being that he
really was. He had to fight wild
beast and savage man. He feared
neither. The early white settlers,
obliged by the peculiar conditions of
pioneer times to live in a measure
like the Indians, became also tall,
thin. muscular. daring. Their eyes
flashed with the fearlessness that
characterizes the American race of
the present
We have a more generous and va
ried diet than our ancestors. Diet
affects personal appearances in
marked degree. We are becoming a
larger and heavier race, but the dis
tinctiye features of century or more
ago are still In evidence. The Ameri-
can Is easily recognizable everywhere
he goes in foreign lands. He will for
long time present the same type
that to-day distinguishes him from
men of all other races.-Louisville

A Saw Contains 200 GEMS.

The Atkins saw works of this city,
says the indianapolis Sentinel. has
just completed a large saw contain
ing 200 teeth. with a Brazilian dia-
mond imbedded in each tooth. The
saw was shipped recently to Bedford.
Ind, to be used in one of the big
stone quarries there.
The saw is eight feet in diameter,
ive-sixteenths of an inch thick and
weighs almost half ton. Instead of
having sharp teeth, this peculiar saw
has almost smooth edge. Secured
across the edge of the outer rim are
200 inserted steel holders: imbedded
in each is a large Brazilian diamond.
The diamond points compose the
teeth of the saw. which will be used
to cut Indiana limestone into desired
sizes
The diamonds are about a karat in
size and are very dark. Each stone
is valued at $50. Two other saws, du.
plicates of the one completed, are in
the course of construction and repre-
