COTTON STALKS
Their Conversion into. Paper Assured
Plant at Cordelle, Ga.

New Orleans States: AT recent
meeting of the directors of the South
ern Pulp and Paper Company held in
Atlanta, the contract for the erection
at Cordele, Ga, ofsthe initial mill for
the manufacture of paper from cotton
stalks was awarded to a firm of con-
tractors. The mill is to be the finest and
most commodious in the South. There
will be two three-story freproof build
ings, one so by 600 feet and the other
DO by $50 feet. The contract calls for
the completion of the entire plant on or
before October IS, at which time the
company will be ready to begin the man
ufacture of paper.
The capacity of the plant will be forty
tons of paper per day, as two machines
will be installed One machine will man
iufacture tissue, wax, toilet and blotting
paper and utilize cotton seed hulls in
stead of rags for portion of the out
Iput. The other machine will make
wrapping, hardware and bag paper. The
quality of all the grades of paper is to
be far superior to that made from wood
Ipump, both in texture and tensile
| strength. The number of men to be EN-
jployed will be, from fifty to seventy-lve
most of whom will be first class work
men.
The site for the mills includes sixteen
acres of ground near the Seven Springs
| in the town of Cordele and within q
short distance of three railway lines
with which connection will be made by
spur tracks. The promoters of the en-
lterprise say there are cotton stalks
lehough in the South to supply the
world with paper, and through the util-
ization of that which now goes to waste
it is estimated that $50, 10000 would bt
gained to the cotton growers each year
/ According to the calculations that have
been made one ton of paper can be pro
duced from one and one-half tons o.
Istalks.
/ The Cordele paper mill Will be tht
first of its kind in the world, and it:
promoters predict that it will not onl,
revolutionize the paper making indus
TRY, but the use of the stalks will de
stroy the boil weevil At the presen
time there are. only six mills in th'
fSouth manufacturing paper, but the.
use other materials than cotton stalks
hence the persons interested in the Cor
ldele enterprise believe it will mark th'
beginning of great and prosperous in
Idustry in the South.

FLOWING COTTON
Is Most Necessary Now-Wili Help to
Destroy the Weevil.

Referring to Marston's process in
killing the boil weevil the Homer
Guardian Journal says:
1t is generally understood that Paris
green is the chief singredient used. 1t
is stated, however, that the demand for
the poison is SO great that Marston was
unable to fill the orders.
1t now seems to us that the best plan
is to procure this poison and use it as
far as it will go, provided it can't be had
in sufficient quantities to go over the
entire crop. But the matter of proper
cultivation is, under our conditions, the
most important, especially as we are
not all Informed as to just how to ap-
ply the poison.
We all know that frequent cultiva-
ton, that is, blowing the cotton as often
as possible when the weather is hot and
dry, is most necessary now. This will
serve to knock the weevils off and they
can't stand the hot, dry dirt which can
be thrown on with thep low. Of course
the effect of frequent blowing will de
pend largely on the kind of weather in
July and August. If it is as cold and
wet as it was last year the blowing will
not destroy many

THE DRAlSS CASE

and No Postponement.

The case of Phil Draiss, whose trial

MULTIPLICATION SUIT
Taxpayers of Claiborne Parish Against
the Clingman Road.

The Horeer Guardian Journal: 1t will
be remembered that number of citi-
zens of this community agreed to pay
Kinnebrew and Clingman the sum OF
$4,000 as a bonus to aid in the proposed
railroad from Homer to Shreveport.
This amount was to be paid in proper
tion to what each one subscribed, and
according to the terms as set out in the
agreement, a part when the road was
constructed to Minden, a part when it
intersected the Louisiana and Arkan-
sas, and part when the trains were
running. The above are not the exact
terms, but the payments were divided
up depending on the progress of the
construction of the road, etc.
The various parties joined in one
suit and cite Kinnebrew and Clingman
to show cause why the obligation should
not be annulled and that they be re-
lieved from paying in any more. The
plaintiffs contend that reasonable time
has elapsed and as the parties have not
built the road they should not be re-
quired to wait expecting the road to be
built in the future. Hence they pray for
the obligation to be annulled.

ARCHBISHOP BLENK
Robbed by Bandits in Italy-Is Pre-
sented by Pope With Pastoral Ring.

The Pitayune relates that during the
last week in May, Mgr. Blenk, Arch
bishop of New Orleans, was received
in special audience by the Holy Father,
Pope Plus x, who gave his eminent vis-
itor superb pastoral ring adorned
with a fine amethyst. The cause of the
gift was, that while the archbishop was
travelling in Italy he was held up by ban
dts, who stole his pastoral ring and
other precious objects.
The conversation between the Pope
and Mgr. Blenk related to the time
when he was Bishop of Porto Rico, and
he told the Holy Father that he found
the Catholic faith very deeply rooted
in Porto Rico during the seven years
that he presided.
Speaking of Louisiana, Mgr. Blenk
said to the Pope that it was region
on the Gulf of Mexico that reflected the
belle France.
The archbishop spoke in most san
guine terms OF MS nope tlat FRANCE
will later on come back to her former
glorious destinies as the most Catholic
country in Europe He said that he had
attended the festival in the city of Or
leans in honor of Joan of Arc, and he
was pleased to see the deep religious
manifestations of the people.
At the close of the interview the Pope
complimented Mgr. Blenk on his vigor-
GUS physical appearance, and added /:
New Orleans will have long-lived
and successful archbishop"

From Port Hudson, La, is given this
information: The farmers of this COM
munity began on Tuesday to have all of
the forms that have dropped off the cot
ton plant, and those that are still on
the stalk and have been punctured by
the weevil, gathered in sacks, and are
burning the, along with what weeviis
they CO ncatch. The new crop of Wee
wills are beginning to hatch, and by
breaking open the punctured forms
many are found in the grub state. Quite
number of the farmers have used
Marston's poison with slight benefit,
they think.
