Mexican money per ton. That IS
equivalent to $50 gold per ton.
Many contracts for the shrub at
500 per ton have been made in
that country by the representatives
of the Continental Rubber Com
pany of New York, which is said
to be trying to get control of the
shrub in Texas. In this State,
however, many of the ranchmen
have signed contracts for the use
of the shrub upon their lands at
the low price of SOC per ton. Some
of the contracts call for as much as
So per ton.
It has been suggested that the
State Land Commissioner take all
the guayule and marijole lands off
of the market pending the enact
ment of law by the next Legis-
lature to govern the classification
and price of the product.-San An

boil had been punctured, and when
several layers were carefully remov-
ed there was disclosed to view a
sort of jelly-like substance, widely
different from the pollen of the cot
ton boil.
This jelly-like substance is the
matter that has been designed in
several newspaper reports as gall.
1t was contended that this gall was
harmful to the weevil and that the
weevil could not live in the sub
stance; that by cultivating cotton in
which this gall would form, the
boil weevil would be forced to die.
But Prof. Hunter states that the
gall is formed in an effort on the
part of plant to heal the wound
made by the boil weevil in punctur-
ing the boil for the deposit of an
egg, and that it has been found
that the weevil is as likely to live
or gall as on the pollen of the cot
ton boil.
As proof that the weevil will live
on this strange jelly stuff or gall,
Prof. Hunter has inclosed larvae
IN the substance and brought wee
wills to full maturity. -Stockman

GUAYULE LANDS
IN WESTERN TEXAS.
State Land Agent Sent 70 Investigate and
Protect Interests Of State.

Austin, Tex, Aug, al. J..
Terrell, State Land Commissioner,
has placed one of the States land
agents in the field in Western
Texas to make an investigation
into the guayule shrub. 1t is
planned by Mr.. Terrell that the
States rights to this rubber-pro-
duCing shrub shall be protected to
the greatest possible extent.
The shrub covers several million
acres of State lands, and if proper
steps are taken to prevent outside
parties from acquiring the use of
the lands for a mere pittance and
denuding them of the shrub,
revenue of almost fabulous proper
tons may be derived by the State
from this source.
The agent in question will de-
termine the extent of the growth
of the guayule and marijole shrubs
upon the State lands, and when his
report is made to the commissioner
the latter will probably fix a value
on the lands in accordance with
the ruling of the Attorney Gen
erals Department that such lands
shall be classed as timber lands,
the minimum price of which is
fixed at S. per acre.
The enormous value of guayule
lands seem to be little understood
by many people In Texas. It IS
stated that ranchnen have sold the
rights to the shrub to represent
tatives of corporations for a mere
song. A letter was received here
today from Torreon, Mex, saying
that the price of the guayule shrub
had gone up during the past two
weeks from $40 per ton to 500

Concerning Immune Cotton.

Concerning the widely published
statements in regard to the exis-
tence of a cotton that is immune
from the attack of the boil weevil,
Prof. w. D. Kinds, of the govern
ment chronological station, says
that one variety of cotton is no
more immune than any other
variety; that there is no cotton
which is impervious to the weevil.
Prof. Kinds declares that the
entomologist from whom the report
was supposed to have originated
was misunderstood and misquoted.
Taking a fresh boil of cotton
from a plant in the rear of the
station Prof. Kinds
pointed out a tiny discolored place,
where a weevil had puuctured
several layers and deposited an egg.
There was a decided bump OIL the
cotton boil in the neighborhood of
the place where the layers of the

der the Tillman- Gillespie resolution so

Speaking in support Of the resolu.
ton Mr.. La Toilette said the country
had been astounded at the revelations
that had been made In the matter Of
the combination between the coal pro-
ducing industry and the railroads and
he felt satisfied that the prosecution
Of inquiry would show as bad condi-
ton in the grain business. He as
serted that corruption had been dis
covered at every place where inquiry
had been made and asserted that the
whole system is permeated with
fraud" In support Of his contentious
he said that testimony taken by the
commission indicates q joint owner

elevator companies to the detriment
Of the farmers, who are entitled to a
