War is Declared on the
Arch Enemy Of the
South's Great Staple.

Washington, D. c., November s.
Practical steps are being taken by
the Southern Railway Company. the
Alabama Great Southern Railroad
Company to cooperate with the
officials of the Uuited States A5ri-
cultural Department and the State
Commissioners of Agriculture in ad-
vising farmers, in the territory along
the lines Of these railways which
may eventually be reached by the
Mexican cotton boil Weevil, as to the
best methods Of growing cotton in
spite Of the presence Of that insect.
! The experience of the farmers in
Texas, where the weevil has been
| for some years, demonstrates that,
by the adoption of proper methods,
practically as large yields of cotton
can be obtained as before the APP
pearance of the weevil. In most
localities in Texas the invasion of
the weevil has generally been follow
ed by short crops for two or three
years until the farmers have learned
how to deal with the insect.
For the purpose of making the
cooperative work of the Companies
as effective and helpful as possible,
an organization has been perfected
to be known as the Cotton Culture
Department of the Southern Rail-
way, the Alabama Great Southern
Railroad, and the Mobile & Ohio
Railroad, with a view to encourag-
ing the adoption of the most improv-
ed methods in advance of the WeeviL
This, it is felt, will have the effect
of maintaining the normal produc-
ton of cotton. Practical farmers
who have had experience in dealing
with the boil weevil will be employ
ed and will devote their entire time
to visiting the farmers along the
lines of these railways in localities
which may eventually be reached
by the weevil and giving them
practical advice as to the best
methods of CROWN cotton under boil
weevil conditions.

The writer visited Wenatche

there and in the upper Columbia and

world for their fine fruit, came to
his first realization that many parts
of the Snake river valley offered
similar cnoditions. and gave every
evidence that in time they would
