Washington, oct. 25.-Unnecessary
alarm, in the judgment of the colt u
exeprts of the department of agricul
ture. is manifested by cotton planters
over the ravages of anthracnCse. Re
Gently it has been reported that g..
disease is costing the Gotten grove p
of two states in the cotton belt abCu;
$19,0OO,O0O a year
This statement" said Prof w. A
OrtCn, patholCgist of the bureau OF

tgricuturC, "man!fesily is impCsslb y
No such less as that could occur in any
Cne sti'e or in any two states from
anthraonCse. In sense it is a spo-
radio disease, which is likely to affect
seriously a limited territory, but IL is
quite unlikely that it could affect any
particular state to such an extent.
"Anthracncse is disease of the
bolls of the cotton, due to a fungus,
The spores of this fungus, which is q
minute plant. parasitic on the cotton,
ere carried by wind and insects to the
bolls, which they penetrate, causing
decay of the contents The disease
is prevalent i'm all cotton districts
every season, but rarely causes serious
injury IN wet seasons 1t does cause
losses here and there amounting some
times to one-fourth or one-half Of the
cotton crop. The aggregate loss, while
large when the whole country Is CON
sidered. does not make in any one year
a serious inroad on the total crop.
"ln Alabama, for instance, the loss
in particular fields will be one.half OF
the crop; yet few miles away there
will be little If any evidence of IT.. The
sections that suffer from the losses
usually are limited"

pher of the United States geological

ter, u. s. ", and o. II. Titman, SUI
perintendent of the United States

ETY. announced that the only question
1t had to decide was whether Com
mander Peary reached the north pole
on the date claimed
Will Meet In a Few Days.
Experts designated by the society
will hold their first meeting within a
few days and begin their investigation
OF the Peary data. They will examine
the notebooks and original observa-
tions and will see all papers brought
back from the frigfd north The wide
scope Of the investigation makes II
probable that the subcommittee will
nor report Its findings for several
months, but when ready the report
Will be submitted to a meeting of the
board Of managers Of the society
called for that purpose
Prof. Willis f. Moore, president OF
ihe Natinnal Geographic society, said
after the board meeting that che socB-
,fy believed Peary's claim that he
reached the pole should be judged
without further delay.
Cannot Wait for Coax Data,
This sogiety ia ready to make a.
similar examination of DR.. Cooks
original obs srvations and field notes."
Prot. Moore said "Sut as he promised
to send them to the University of Co.
penlfagen and the society probably
will not have an opportunity of seeing
them for several months, it did not
seem fair to defer action on Peary's
observations until CoDk's papers we're.
received"
