Cannot Get the Plckers to Gather It. in
5razos Bottom.
Houston, Tex: In many places
throughout the Brazos bottoms cot
ton section there is such dearth of
cotton pickers that whole patches of
the staple are going to waste, accord
ing to E. H. Marmsby, labor con
tractor, who was in Houston Saturday
for the purpose of accupulating all the
labor he could induce to go. He con-
tracts with cotton planters to furnish
cotton pickers and was here to find
pickers in order to fill his contract.
On Saturday mornings train he sent
up to Navasota three white men, six
MeXicans and nearly score of ne
groes. All these men were purchased
tickets and sent on their way. Mr.
Harmsby says he will be thankful If
one-half of them reach their destina-
ton, for other pickers are offering SUI
perior inducements and may succeed
in filching his men before they strike
the cotton patches for which they are
bound
On account OF the absolute necessity
that the cotton be picked, in some To-
calities the price per hundred pounds
has gone to figure nearly double
what It was last year Ia some in
stances cotton pickers are making as
much as So and 81 per day, Including
board, but these are exceptionally fine
pickers. The average wage is 81 or
$2.25, with board. The board cuts
but little figure, inasmuch as it is not
of the finest, although said to be bet.
ter this year than last on account OF
the demand for better food on the part
of the plckers. arl
And while the cotton patches are
turning from white to black for lack
of some one to strip the fiber, there is
howl going up from all the larger
cities because the colored help has
been taken to the cotton field and
there is none to do the cooking and
washing. For a month and hall
yet there will still be this cutlery, but
then the colored folks will begin to
drift back to the cities and there will
be too many OF them. In the mean
time, housewives are doing their own
work while waiting for the colored
folks to come back to town from
the Brazos and other sections where
they are at work.

IAY FEVER is endemic catarrh. 1t
i l is caused by some irritating sub
stance in the atmosphere during the
late summer months. 1t is generally
thought that the pollen of certain weeds
and flowers is the cause of it.
Change of locality seems to be the
only rational cure. The use OF Peruna,
however, stimulates the nervous system
emanations and sometimes carries the
victim through the hay fever season
without an attack of the disease.
a large number of people rely upon
Peruna for this purpose. Those who
do not find it convenient to change
their location to avoid Hay Fever,

The Potato Situation.

Shortage in the potato crop is not con
fined to the Divide district, but extends
over the entire state. The following
from the Greeley Sun would indicate
that the crop in the Greeley district will
be not much more than half an average
one:
A. L. Mumper is quite an observing
man and a good farmer. Last week he
thought the damage to potatoes by heat
and blight would shorten the anticipated
crop from twenty five to thirty per cent.
But yesterday morning he told Sun
man he would have to alter those estim.
ates so far as his knowledge extended.
He had been over the country to the
west, northwest and north of Greeley
Saturday and Sunday making notes OF
the potato situation and he was convin-
ced the damage would be greater. The
extremely hot days and warm nights of
the past week had created such havoc
that he was disposed to believe the yield
would be damaged not less than forty
per cent of the yield expected. If such
conditions prevail throughout the dis
trict, and there is every reason to believe
they will, the crop in the Greeley district
may not exceed 5000 carloads, as com
pared with the 1900 carloads in 1901
