COTTON HAS
ITS ENEMIES
IN WEEVILS

Washington, July GA bulletin
just issued by the Bureau Of the
Census on Cotton reduction for 1905
in the United States shos that the
value of the cotton crop for that
year was about one-half that Of the
corn crop; was nearly 800, 900, 900
more than that of the wheat crop
and was twice the value Of the oat
crop.
It is pointed out that the worlds
production Of gold in 1909 was the
greatest ever produced, $500, 900, 900
and this amount is but slightly more
than half the value of the American
cotton crop for last year, and that
the total building expenditures for
1909 in los cities Of the United
States, which amounted to SS57,-
53O,669 vas only s45, 100000 more
than the value Of the cotton produc-
tion for lie period.
Cotton growers are becoming an
nually more efficient and successful
in subdunig and holding in check the
ravages of the boil weevil through
the following instructions through
the national and state departments
of agriculture. The bulletin says:
Investigations by the former have
proved that, through a more careful
selection of seeds for planting and
better methods of cultivation, the
maturing crop can be so hastened By
the use Of commercial fertilizers and
cultural methods as to develop a
large percentage Of the crop before
the weevil has so multiplied as TO
materially damage it.
The most effective check for the
pest is dry weather. The damage
from it is practically in proportion
to the precipitation. The greatest
advance in boll-weevil ravages in
1909 was that of 12O miles in south
eastern Mississippi, but the insect
failed materially to extend its range
into the Yazoo River Valley. In
Oklahoma the greatest advance was
only 80 miles, while the average was
only 10 miles,
The bulletin further says that the
United States in 1909 contributed
59.6 per cent of the commercial cot
ton; British India, 21.S per cent;
Egypt 5.5 per cent; and Russia, 4.3
per cent.
The worlds production in 1909
amounted to about S,279, 200, 900
pounds. valued at about 81, 900, O,OOO,-
900.

HAWAIIAN ISLANDS ARE
PRACTICALLY ENSLAVING
PLANTATION LAB0RERS

! Washington, July 6.-Conditions
akin to slavery in the Hawaiian Is
lands are pictured in memorial
asking for an investigation submit
ted by Samuel Gompers, president
of the American Federation of La
Dor. to the department of commerce
and labor.
Sugar planters acting through the
Hawaiian government. Gompers
charges, have been Turing peasants
from Harbin. in the iterior of Sibe
ria. to the islands. Russian and
Hawaiian agents are engaged in the
work. They recruit peasants, Com
pers says. by attractive pamphlets
and in these and by other means
promising the peasants wages of S45
a month. free houses. fuel, electric
light. furniture, an acre Of land
each for gardens, evening schools,
free hospitals, half pay during sick
ness, free railroad fares and free
school for children.
A delegation of 500 deluded Siber-
ians went to the islands last Oeto-
ber and the total number that yield
ed to the lure OF the sugar planters
is over 1000. Their experience is
thus set forth by Gompers:
Instead OF all the comforts above
described. the people found wooden
shanties. without roofs, the floors
made OF rough boards, set apart with
wide creviees. The furniture con
sisted OF a few benches. a table and
few beds; instead OF the promised
electric light. kerosene lamps wese

sists OF the roots of sugar cane.
which the men were to carry from
three to seven miles. Coal Is a great
luxury, which is but seldom obtain
able.
Instead OF the free transportation
TO and from work. the men had 10
walk to the place OF work at dis.
tance OF five miles. and the time
consumed was not included in the
working day; lateness by Ave to 10
minutes was punished by a deduc-
ton OF a quarter OF a days pay; the
wages are S22 a month for men
and $13 for women.
THE men are compelled TO buy
ali their provisions in the plantation
store ~ such exhOrbitant prices
that they exceed the earnings due
and they become the debtors OF the
planters
In short the conditions are such
as would establish condition OF
peonage.
After three months of suffering
and quiet submiss on, having spent
not only their scant earnings. but the
money they brought with them, real
lzed from the sale Of their real

Chas. Finch, of Lawrence, Tells
of English Sparrow.
Says Pot Pie of Them Is Most
Excellent Eating.
ARE VERY PLENTIFUL
On Sale in French Market in
New Orleans.
Not a Popular Game Bird on Ac-
count of Size.

Lawrence, Kan, April 12.-Charles
Finch, of the Lawrence Gazette, who
also is an epicure of note, writes con-
corning the English sparrow as table
delicacy as follows: There is a scien-
tific article going the rounds Of the pa
pers that is partly a joke. People
think it is a joke, but it isn't. 1t Is
about eating English sparrows; that is,
there is nothing smaller or more plenti-
full in the way Of birds that is better
The writer Of this got his first idea of
eating English sparrowS in the French
market at New Orleans. There, seated
In one of the thousand stalls, was an
old auntie busy as a bee and appar-
emily happy as q lark, with buShel
basket filed with the sparrows while
she patiently picked off the feathers
and laid the dressed birds up in piles
of half dozens and dozens. She said
the market was good, that she sold all
she could dress, and that many people
who had money with which to buy
anything they wanted frequently pat
ronized her English sparrow stall. A
trial showed that the birds were most
excellent eating, and that a pot pie Of
them was equal to any bird pie, save
that If one is in a hurry he must not
be particular about bones. 1t is to be
feared, however, that they will not be-
come a popular game bird for the mar
ket on account Of the inclination of the
American people to be in a hurry, and

erS of a sparrow as off a chicken

On the second charge the admission
was made that Captain Murphy had

NEW SCHOOL BRANCH Ar K. Q.
DR.. Charles HI. johnson VIII Be at
Head of school OF Education.

Lawrence, Kan, April 12.-In the
new school Of education, recently au-
thorized by the board of regents of the
University of Kansas, special attention
will be given TO the problems that are
now demanding solution in educational
lines. According to Chancellor Strong
the work will be high grade with par
ticular attention to graduate study and
research.
The work of the new school will be
to investigate the fundamental princi-
pies of edu cation. Instead of placing
the emphasis on the work of preparing
teachers to hold positions it will be
placed on the study of the basic prin-
ciples on which teaching is done.
Dr. Charles H. Johnston, who will be
the head of the school, is admirably
fitted for the new branch of the univer-
sity. He has spent many years of re-
search work and is the author of a
large list of articles published in the
leading educational magazines of the
country. He is a graduate of the Uni
versity of North Carolina.

But there are always some game hogs
who sneak around to the best holes"
and draw them clean Of fish with a net

FORMER GRAIN INSPECTOR CASE
John w. Radford May Escape on a
Technicality


Kansas City, April 12-John w.
Radford, former. chief grain inspector
of Kansas, may not have to stand
trial on the charge of embezzling state
funds. Judge Hugh j. Smith of the
pleas has ruled to quash the indict-
ment against Radford. The ruling
was made on motion by attorneys
for Mr.. Radford, who asserted no Of
Tense had been committed under the
Kansas statute.
The prosecution will ask the SUI
preme court to pass on Judge Smiths
ruling.
If the supreme court sustains the
decision Mr.. Radford will owe his re-
lease to the little letter e. appearing
The section under which the infor-
nation was filed provides for the pun
ishment of county and city officials
guilty of taking public money. Here,
however,, is where the letter e. cut
an important figure in the case. In
stead of the law reading to punish
state officials it reads, any officer of
an estate guilty of taking the money
in his charge, is guilty of embezzle-
ment
The successful contention of Mr..
Radfords attorneys was that the
word estate has a clear legal mean
has no right to construe legislative
act into another meaning.
Mr.. Radford had been state grain
inspector for four years when he was
removed upon Governor Stubs cleo
ton a year ago.
When the books were audited it Is
alleged they were short $1,000.
