though there are doubtless other
sections in other counties which,
without organization, have achieved
the same end, but Mr.. Phillips saw
its possibilities as state venture.
In connection with the campaign,
an attempt will be made to organize
Stete Swine Breaders' ASSOCIATION
and a State Corn Growers Associa-
ton. Practical steps have already
been taken in the latter, and plans
are being formed to have a meeting
in Little Rock next November,
when prizes will be given with the
meetings of the Boys Corn Club.
Merchants, bankers and manufac.
turers of agricultural implements
will be appealed to especially for
support. A number have already
been seen, and even without the
formation of any definite plans, the
movement has met with unanimous
approval. Several sums of money
have been pledged as prizes, ETC.,
and one farm wagon has been prom
ised.
The new association will have NO
connection with the Boys' Corn
Club, although they will work to-
ward the same end, and Mr.. Phil
lips hopes, in mutual support. Mr..
Phillips states that the Boys Corn
Club meets with his hearty approval
and that he has pledged it his and
his Offices support. However, he
thinks the club aids more directly
the coming generation and that a
movement is needed to educate the
corn grower Of today in the impor-
tauce of the growing OF food stuffs.
As soou as possible pamphlets
will be issued and the preliminary
sdyer. Using campaign begun.

Plaid and Tartan.

VIII the southron ever learn that
'plaid" is not a synonym for ''tartani"
Not long ago an Englishman came into
a hosier's establishment in Glasgow
and asked man behind the counter
to show him some ''pla.i ties" The
attendant, perhaps wondering what
this new and weird article Of wear
ing apparel could be. was completely
baffled until explanation ELECTED the
fact that a necktie with tartan de-
sign was required. Dickens, too, is a
sinner In this respect, for be makes

BRYAN, TEXAS, APRIL 4, 1910.

On any clear morning now, and
hereafter unit! about the middle OF
May, Halley's comet is plainly visible
to the naked eye. 1t rises now less
than an hour before the sun but 1t
will appear little earlier each sue
ceeding morning until about the first
Aof May, when it will be nearly forty
he degrees above the. horizon at sun
rise. Though easy to be distinguish
ed, it is yet SO far away that it is
not very conspicuous object and will
not be until after it passes between
the earth and the sun, about May 10,
and reappears in the western sky.
Then, if expectations are not disap-
pointed, it will be the most splendid
comet seen in more than half a cen
