the Rebekah Lodge and the Woman's

in turn will divide it as previously
specified.

BOll WeeyiI Suggestions.

A correspondent in the Wood
Vile Republican, who weIl-StyIes
himself "Optimist" makes some
excellent suggestions in the
course of his article as follows;
"The habitat of the boil weeYll
has been the theme for some
wears and our experience with
him is that he prefers to make
his home in the rankest cotton
shut out from the sun hight
Therefore the ACCESSIBILITY OF
planting cotton on the thin up
lands fortified with acid phos-
phate alone, as this has a ten
dency to produce more trulO'
and less stalk, and foliage, The
only fight we can make against
this enemy of our great Staple
crop is to burn him out in the
fields, in the hedge rows, in the
stumps, and dead trees. IhlS
cannot be done without a concert
of action. For instance Mr.
Brown uses every expedlenV 10
circumvent the pest. and pleads
with his neighbor, Mr.. Jones,
whose estate lies adjacent, to use
the same method, without avail
Therefore, Browns work is
brown away and the battle lost
THE next thing to follow IS
thorough preparation of the soil,
in fact a fall or winter ploughlng
followed by another ploughing IN
the spring, would insure a quick.
er termination and a more RAPID
growth of the infant plant. The
suggestion has already beer
made to plant the thin up land IL
cotton. Now cotton on this char.
acter of land, planted very early
say in March, is very susceptible
to sore shin, but this evil can be
combated somewhat by putting
a very small quantity of bone
meal in the drill with the seed
When the plant is very young, il
fact, before it is large enough tt
scrape, the crust should be brok
en- and a thin blanket Of loose
earth left adjacent to the youns
plant. The whole thing can bt
summed up in three vital princi
pies, first a deep, well pulyerizet
seed bed, having been Furnished
through the medium of fertilize
with plant food, second to keer
the surface of the ground pulve1
lied, this being done with thos
implements that cut fewes
roots, and thirdly, the toppin
of the plant, say early in July
force the maturity of all bolls sc
up to this time"

The statement proceeding
from the Picayune bureau at
Baton Rouge that the general
fund of the State Treasury was
oyerdrawn $45O,00O and that the
State Treasurer was paying
salaries Of office holders only,
was bomb like in nature. 1t was
true, but it was explained later
that the state would remain on a
cash basis, because amounts ac-
crued in other funds would be
borrowed to meet the obligations
of the general fund-a practice
which enables the state to avoid
borrowing from the banks. The
trouble was said to be that the
Board of Liquidation had not
met and Treasurer Steele and
other officials very rightly, would
not act without authority from
that Board. We believe however
that the primal cause was. as
stated last week, due to the dis
position of the governor to re-
main away from the capital.
Certain it is that although the
Board has not met, Mr.. Sanders
is at the capital, and the wheels
are beginning ito go round -
for the newspaper men ate any
rate, as Secretary of State Mi
chel has, begun toissue warrants
for the payment of the printing
of the amendments.
