Not alone that, but the growing

The Mexican cotton boil weevil has
not been put out of commission as the
Department Of Agriculture undertook to
do, ret the department believes it has
developed method by which the raw
ages Of the pest may be largely prevent
ed. At first it was believed that if the
vii spread over the cotton-producing
weevll spread over the cotton-producing
Industry. and every energy was bent to
check its progress. When it was found
that the weevil was destined to overrun
the cotton district in spite of all that
could be done, the department set about
devising some way to reduce o. prevent
the damage done. and in this it has sue
coded to a considerable extent. The
method is to grow varieties of cotton
that mature early. and TO plant the
crop early, so that it Will mature be-
fore the weevii gets in its work. 1t
seems, therefore. that the solution has
come in natural methods and not In the
determination of the insect. The wee

For old orchards the trimming up
method is perhaps the best. Cut off the
bottom limbs to a point 3 or feet
from the ground, then cut off the ends
of the most extending branches. Do
not prune too closely. Pruning may
be done any time this winter, or early
spring, but the wounds should be COW
cred at once with paint. An old tree
bleeds freely, and will suffer if there
are a large number of wounds on it.

THE recent financial furry, it is
true, has injured the camp to great
extent, and but for this one thing
am sure Rawhide would now be a
camp of from 1000 to 5000 souls,
with several deals running up into
the hundreds of thousands to its
credit. As soon as money matters be-
