REPORTS OF WORMS.
Oil Mill Man Says There Is No Cause
For Alarm,

Ennis, Texas, July 24.--George H.
Hogan stated yesterday that a num-
Der of farmers had reported the ap
pearance of boil worms in their
crops. c. p. Nance, government bu-
reau reporter, who owns farm near
town, said that he has found only
two boil worms in his crop. Col. j.
w. Allison, president of the Ennis
Oil Mill company, says that, from all
information he has been able to get
from the farmers, he concludes that
there is no cause for alarm so far on
account of cotton enemies. He says
there are always some worms, but
the cotton could not carry it's i'm
mense load of fruit unless something
happens to it.
