CITIES ARE CAUGHT
Continued from Page One.)

This attempted padding of the
census, Director Durand declares was
brought about mainly through the use
of slips printed by private individuals
and containing the census questions.
These were distributed very generally
on street corners and were filled out
by thousands of people who either
had already been enumerated or who
were not permanent residents of the
city or were not entitled to enumera-
ton there.
The director says also that more or
less extensive attempts at padding
the census have been discovered in
Seattle and Aberdeen, Wash; Port
land, Ore; Minneapolis, Mimi; Boise,
Idaho; Great Falls, Mont, and Fort
Smith, Ark, and that investigations
are in progress with reference to 9TH

Last Year.

jackson, Miss, Oct. 17.-One and
one-haEf Million Dollars capital was in.
vested in new manufacturing indus.
tries in Mississippi during the fiscal
year ending September 80. This was
for new manufacturing plants of vari.
GUS kinds where charters were issued
for corporations during the year. and
represents but small part of the to.
tai investment in new business pro.
jects during the year.
There was a total of $12 900, ,t0oO in
vested in new corporations during the
year, including railroads. commercial
houses, etc. While this is not as
much as in previous years. it is more
than any since the panic of 1907. and
shows the state is growing and pros
porous Many of the corporations
were small ones, but in Mississippi,
the size Of the corporation cannot be
judged by the amount of capital, as
some of the largest manufacturing
plants in the state have but small
capital.
The new corporations include almost
every kind of industry, from cotton
gins, capitalized at from $1,000 to a
railroad with s2,O00,O00 capital. Nu-
merous lumber companies were organ
lied during the year, showing renewed
activity in this industry, while twelve
new banks were organized with capi-
tai aggregating $4,000, one of these
being the Continental Trust and Bank
ing Company of Clarksdale, with an
authorized capital of $250,000
Altogether the past year has been
a good one for Mississippi in an in
dustrial way. Three million. one hun
dred and sixty thousand dollars is the
capitalization of the railroads organ
lied in the state last year, and work
will begin on these lines at an early
date, which shows returning activity
in railroad construction in this state. !

SENATOR DCLLIVER
STRICKEN BY DEATH

Port Dodge, Ia, Oct. 17.-Senator
Jonathan P. Dolliver died at his resi-
dence here about s o'clock Saturday
evening, after dilation OF the heart,
while DR.. Van Patten was testing the
senator's heart with a stethoscope.
Senator Delivers death was entire
ly unexpected. He had risen early,
and after walking about the house a
few hours announced his intention of
going downtown. He spent the great
er part of the day talking with his
friends here in the city.
The senator declared to them that
he had almost regained his strength.
and that he would soon regain his nor
NAL condition.
After the senator returned home
Dr. Van Patten called to investigate
his condition. The senator was sit
ting in chair while the physician
made the examination DR.. Van Pat.
ten applied the stethoscope to the pa.
tient's heart.
AS he listened to the heart beats
DR.. Van Patten counted out loud, re
peating each number to senator Dolli
yer said in clear, strong voice:
"That's good; I seem to be gaining
in strength, but I could count only
seven"
Suddenly the physician noticed tha
the heart had ceased beating.
Upon looking into the senator's fac,
he discovered that the distinguishes
statesman was dead

the doorway of the room to speak t,

deal more into the state treasury for
school purposes than they get out of
the general school fund, while others
pay but little of the taxes for which
they get their school funds, and if
there was law that each county
should raise its own school funds,
paying into the state only sufficient
money to meet government expenses,
it is believed conditions would be diff
ferent.
Cut this would require a constitu-
tional convention, as would almost
any other plan for raising sufficient
funds TO conduct the state government.
Students of political affairs in Mssis-
sippi do not see how it is possible,
under present conditions, for the state
to go many years more without a con-
sttutional convention. and already
there is talk of the state calling one
at the next session.
There are less than one-half of the
counties of the state that bear the
bulk of the tax burden, so far as the
state is concerned. 1t is impossible to
get anything like a correst valuation
of lands, especially in the delta, while
the timber lands of South Mississippi
are not valued at more than one
fourth of their market value.

The Late Blight OF Potatoes

The late blight is one OF our most
serious potato diseases. 1t attacks
the tubers. stems and leaves. On the
tubers the malady causes the we'll
known dry rot This is manifested
as dark areas on the surface OF the
potato. A cross section through such
an infected area will revpl blotches
and streaks of brownish or blackish
color, indicating that the tissue OF the
potato has been invaded by the para
site. Upon the leaves, the disease ap-
pears as brownish to darkish areas
which in moist weather show the ap-
pearance of being water soaked. The
spots begin at the tips, then they rap
idly invade the. whole area of the
leaves. Such affected leaves will soon
wilt and die. The trouble seldom ex-
tends to the stems unless the weather
is continually moist. The late blight
is caused by parasitic fungus (Phy-
tophthora infestance-Mont. DeBar-
ry) 1t is first intro duced in a new
potato field by means OF diseased tu-
bers. The parasite is at its best when
the weather is continually moist and
the temperature ranging from 72 to
"a degrees F. However if the nor
NAL temperature exceeds "A degrees F.
the development OF the disease is
checked
The preventative measures are the
same as for the early blight, l. e. spray
ing with Bordeaux mixture The sue
cess OF the treatment depends upon
how thoroughly the bordeaux is ap-
piled. Every part Of the plant should
be covered with the mixture The
first application is given when the
plants are eight inches high This
should be repeated every IL 70 IS
days. To save labor, it is advisable
to add Paris green to the Bordeaux
mixture, and in this way we prevent
the damage caused by the potato bee
tie. J. J. I.
