Secretary Wilson Talks on Cotton.

At a meeting of the National Asso-
citation of Cotton Merchants at Wash
ington last week, numerous speeches
were made by members whose at
tendance numbered about 200, among
the speakers being Secretary Wilson
of the Agricultural Department, who
made the following remarks;
The problem presented to our cot
ton growers is not so mnch the cost
of the labor he may employ as it is
the intelligence with which the crop
is grown. We had experience along
this line in growing rice along the
Gulf coast of the Southern States. 1t
was found that one American could
produce as much rice in one year as
four hundred orientals. so that our
cotton producers do not have to fear
lower wages in any other part of the
world
1.-The Department of Agriculture
has been helping the cotton producers
in every way within its power. Di-
seases of cotton and insects that raw
age the crops are being carefully
studied. \ few years ago the sea
island cotton industry was threatened
with a serious disease. Department
scientists developed varieties of cot
ton that were resistants of this di-
sease and re- established the industry.
They also found plants like the cow
pea that resisted this disease and add
ed fertility to the soil. Through cot
ton breeding and selection many new
types have been secured and some of
them have demonstrated their superb
ority over ordinary kinds, Some of
the finest upland cottons have been
produced BY this method and some
of them are nearly equal TO the Sea
Island.
..The invasion of the boil weevil
from Central America, through Mex
leo. presented problems TO which the
scientists of the country have been
devoting their energies. New hybrids
have been produced that are early,
prolific ana OF the finest staple that
can be successfully grown in the re-
gions invaded by the boil weevil. The
cottons are not resistant TO the Wee
vii, but good crops can be produced
from them on account of their earll-
ness The department Is working in
advance of the pest with view to
securing cottons that will take the
place of those now in use and be suffi-
ciently early in maturing TO escape
the ravages of the insect.
"Our cotton growing States have
been hlndered from getting the fulI
benefit of a rotation of crops and
grazing domestic animals on accoun6
of the presence of the cattle tick that
compelled quarantining those sections
against the movement of cattle ex-
cept during the winter months and
this circumscribed the full use of
domestic animals in maintaining the
! fertility of the soil and naturally pre-
vented the improvement of cattle
necessary on every farm where rota-
ton should be practiced. The United
States government, through the De-
partment of Agriculture, is EXTERN
mating this cattle tick. An area
equal to the State of Virginia in size
was cleared of the pest in 1906, and
an equal area will be cleared during
the present year. In few years this
incumbus on Southern agriculture
will be entirely relieved

The Kosciusko Canning Factory.

1t was the pleasure Of a Star
Ledger representative the first OF
the week to look in upon the Kos
ciuskO Canning Factory, where he
found a busy hive of workers put
ting up sweet potatoes, tomatoes,
okra, etc. In spite of unfavorable
season. Capt. Smithson. the superin-
tendent, thinks the plant will dc
fairly well, comes as good news to
the stockholders and the people.
Should the plant do well here, and
there is no reason why it should
not, it will be mine of wealth to
Kosciusko and the surrounding
country. .-Kosciusko Star.

Women Who Wear Well.

It is astonishing how great a change a
few years of married life often make in
the appearance and disposition of many
women. The freshness, the charm, the
brilliance vanish like the bloom from
peach which is rudcly handled. The
matron is only a dim shadow. a faint echo
of the charming maiden. There are two
reasons for this change. ignorance and
neglect. Few young women appreciate
the shock to the system through the
change which comes with marriage and
motherhood. Many neglect to deal with
the unpleasant pelvic drains and weak
nesses which too often come with mar
riage and motherhood not understanding
that this secret drain srobbing the cheek
of its freshness and the form of its
fairness.

THE REASON
Why the Phoenix Drug Company
Continue to Recommend Vinol.

First: Because it is not a patent
medicine and it contains besides
tonic iron all of the medical curative
elements of cod liver oil actually
taken from fresh Gods livers, but
without a drop of oil to nauseate
and upset the stomach and retard
it's work; therefore however old
fashioned cod liver oil or emulsions
will do good, Vinol will do far more
good
Second: Because Vinol acts first
upon the stomach, creates a healthy
appetite, strengthens and tones up
the digestive organs, purifies and
inriches the blood, and, in a
natural manner, restores health and
strength.
Third: Because VinOl contains
no injurious drugs to react upon
the system; every ingredient being
named on the label, a patient
knows exactly what he is taking.
Fourth: Because we never sold
anything in our store that gave such
universal satisfaction for old people,
weak, sickly women and children,
nursing mothers, and to build up
the system after a severe sickness,
and for relieving hacking coughs,
chronic colds, bronchitis and all
throat and lung troubles.
Try Ninol on our guarantee.

TRUNK HOOROR
STILL MYSTERY

NEW YIRK, May 27.--There are still
no clues to the trunk mystery other
than have ready been recited, though
the police have been very active. Mrs.
Henry Sherer, who occupies the third
floor of the tenement. has recounted the
story many times to the effect that
she rented her rooms two weeks ago
to two Greeks. who called themselves
Joha and Paul Sarakie. Wednesday of
last week they brought the trunk In
question to the house and when the
rent was not paid at the end Of the
week in answer TO the protest they said
that they would leave the trunk.
The men then disappeared. The next
day unpleasant oders directed atten-
tion toward the trunk and the exam'n-
alton revealed the presence of a hu-
man body which has since been identi-
fed as that OF Rev. Father Kasper, OF
the Armenian Apostolic church of Ho-
boken. N. J. he lived at No. sos Mon
astery street. West Hoboken, and So
licited and collected funds for ris
church. It Is supposed that he was
murdered for his money The autopsy
revealed the fact that the priest had
probably been drugged and placed In

ted to death
