MAKES A REPORT
ON BOIL WEEVIL
Expert Afford Declares That Not Over
20 Per Cent. of the squarss
Are. Punctured.

Special to The Net0s.
Fayette, Miss, July 16.-The fol-
lowing circular of advice to the people
of the boil weevil district of Missis-
sippi has just been given out by G. H.
Afford, special agent of the United
States Department of Agriculture:
MANY bankers, merchants and
planters have been wearing long faces
for about two weeks. They are suf-
fering from a severe case of blues
They say that the boil weevil is pune
turing all of the squares during the
rainy weather. / have been in many
cotton fields in the boil weevil dis
tricts of Mississippi during the past
week and find that the weevils have
in no cotton field punctured more
than so per cent of the squares that
have formed. The average is about
20 per cent. Where the early y-emerg-
ing weevils were picked off the lie
tie cotton and the punctured squares
have been picked the damage does not
average more than 10 per cent.
Numerous reports from some sec
tions for 1909 show that every square
was punctured to the last of June on
account of almost continuous wet
weather, and that after the 1st of July
a good crop of cotton was made be-
cause the rains ceased, the punctured
squares were picked and the cotton
crop received intensive shallow culti-
walton until picking began. This is no
time to surrender. Let us not look at
the dark side of things.
In 1907 We had just such a period
of rain about this time in the boil
weevil territory. The weevil did
great damage. 1t cleared off, and in
about two weeks ninetenths of the
weevils had disappeared. The man
who gathers every punctured square,
and who energeticcaly cleans out his
cotton crop as soon as weather per-
mits, and strictly follows the plan of
intensive shallow cultivation until the
cotton begins to open, will be quite
sure to make fairly good crop"

THE WORLD OF AUTUMN.

A crimson weed and a cobalt seed, g
burr and thistlepod,
A poppy bloom and the yellow dust in
the prime of the goldenrod;
A beautiful world to live in,
Forget in and forgive in,
To walk in, to work in, to rest in and
to nod.
A chestnut burr and a chinquapin, a
haw with its berries black;
A pay-paw sweet, bin of wheat, the
straw in the barnyard stack
A beautiful world to grow in,
To reap in, to SOW in,
With joy in the blood a-bubble from
the lips of youth blown back.
The windfalls under the winesap, a
barrel by the cider mill;
A red corn ear in the husk somewhere,
and a maid with heart a-thrill;
A fine world to spark in.
To sing in, to lark in,
To find the old-tine sweethearts the
same old sweethearts still.
A fox in the den by the BERN bank, a
horn on the hills of light:
A minuet in the mansion, with the
hunters home in the night;
A glorious world to dance in,
To live lifes romance in,
To court in, to sport in when the eyes
of the maids burn bright
A tournament and a queen to crown,
and the rosy maids of honor,
A hearts delight for the lucky weight
who lays the crown upon her.
A valorous world to fight in,
To set the old wrongs right in,
To dream of bliss when she gives a
kiss to the daring lance that
won her.
A mallow pink and mallow white,
reed by the singing stream.
A woof of haze that the warm noon
lays on the lance of the golden
CLEAN;
A very sweet world to bask in,
To do ones daily task in,
To browse in, to browse in, to sleep
in, and to dream.

Last Nights Recital.

The two hundred people who heard
Professor and Madame Fallberg in re-
cital last night will bear witness that
it was such treat as is seldom af-
forded music lovers in this city. The
artists were apparently at their best,
and the audience manifested their
pleasure by constant applause.
Professor Fallberg proved himself a
musician of sympathetic understanding
as well as of faultless technique. His
rendering of the "Polonaise," from
Chopin, and the Wedding Day." from
Greig, were remarkable for beauty
and power, and all of his numbers
were literally applauded.
Madame Fallberg belongs to the fair
est type of Swedish beauty, and her
captivating personality, apparent to
all before she began to sing, won her
audience Immediately. Each of her
numbers was keenly enjoyed, but
"Villanelle," from Del Acqua, and the
Swedish folk-songs seemed to be best
received. She has a soprano voice of
quite remarkable sweetness and SYM
pathetic tone.
