U,,D' .SH-Ncw Orleans is one of the cities
hard on paint; but, nevertheless, they paint
lcad-and-oll good deal there.
\. c Caller painted two houses last year
for +. llindcrer. one lcad-and-oil and the
other Devoc. The first is already in bad
condition DevOe is perfect
NJ. AuguStin, New Orleans has painted
his house Devoc three times in eighteen
years. This shows that DcyOc is good for
SIX years there.
In Florida, where Iead-and-oII wears only
year, we have no complaint of Dcvoc and
we know of its wearing ten years in several
instances. We don't say it wears ten years,
you know; there are such instances.
NO complaint is enough to say till we
have long time experiences; they re coming.
Meantime, Deyoc is the paint that takes
least gallons, makes least bIl, and wears
longest. SO much We re sure Of
Yours truly,

Some Of the best boil weevil
authorities say that it is only the
matter of a few years before the
pest will infect the whole cotton
growing section. If this be true,
it would be wise for our people to be
gin to fortify themselves against the
invasion. Some progress is being
made in methods Of destroying the
weevil but none of them as yet are
entirely effective. 1t may be the
wisest plan for cotton raisers to
commence raising their bread and
meat at home, so that if the boil
weevil should destroy their cotton
they would not be deprived of those
necessary commodities Of life
Many Monroe county farmers al
ready raise plenty of corn and
hogs. Those who do not would
act wisely to follow their example,
whether the boil weevil gets here
or not.

Some year or 50 ago, the people
of South Mississippi contended for
constitutional convention to
remedy claimed inequalities in the
assessment of taxes and dispropor-
tionate distribution of the public
school fund Ia the various counties.
Much was said and long array Of
figure was produced to prove the
inequalities, 50 much 50, that the
last legislature provided for the APP
pointment of committee To make
investigation and report to that
body at lis next meeting Now it
develops that the committee which
has been appointed has been selec-
ted from those sections of the State
where there has been no complaint,
only two counties of South Missis-
sippi heing represented. This has
made the complaintants indignant,

such a library, would see to it that
nothing but the very best of books

reading of trashy and harmful
literature would be greatly lessened,
since something better could be OBJ
tanned without expense. There is
no estimating the good that would
result from this one consideration.

After two days and d half of hard travelling over snow bound and in some places well nigh impossible roads following the lines of the South ern New England Telephone company in the search for damage done by the storm. Peter Maynard returned to George Grants stable Wednesday aft ernoon. Accompanied by Lineman John A. Clark of the telephone company, Mir. Maynard left Taftville Monday morn- ing with a pair of horses and wagon. At point four miles beyond Sterling Hill, the other side of Plainfield they struck some particularly bad drifts, and decided to leave the wagon behind. So each mounted horse and they went limit of territory is generally the state ditions they kept on through Coventry, R. l., until Tuesday. when they met linemen working their way out from Providence about ten miles from the latter place. MT. Clark took the train home from Coventry while Mir May nard, riding one horse and leading the other through the snow drifts. started back by road. He spent Tuesday night at Oneco. found his wagon where he had left it, and got back in good oondi- tion at 1.30 o'clock Wednesday after noon. The telephone lines were found in such bad shape all along the way that months work will probably be required to get them back to their con- dition before the storm. although they can be fixed up temporarily in much shorter time.
