BUGS DOING DAMAGE

Apparently, the south should be prosperous with flood of S600,000,O0O, or $700,000,000 or $S00,000,000 pouring into it each year. The south has pros- pered, but not as one would imagine from such sum.
 The reason of it is that so little of that money sticks in the south
 Cotton was always certain money. A bale of cotton may be converted into cash almost with the celerity of New York exchange. There is no peddling or nuckstering. And there was a fascinating element of a gamble in it.
 Maybe it would bring ten cents or better. Result, general joy and ex- travagance, to be bitterly paid for next year, when a lot of cotton exchange manipulators in New York, New Or leans and Liverpool hammer the price to six cents and keep it there until the bulk of the cotton has been mark eted by January 1, and out of the grow CTS hands. Then the spectators would blithely boost the quotations.

PREACH GOSPEL OF HEALTH
Plan to Have One Sermon on Sunday, April 24, Devoted to Scourge
 of Tuberculosis.

Following campaigns against con sumption that have been carried on in the churches of hundreds of cities, and sermons on tuberculosis that have been preached before thousands of con gregations during the past year, a movement has been started by the Ma tiOnal Association for the Study and Prevention of Tuberculosis to estab- fish a permanent tuberculosis Sunday, on which it is hoped that every one of the 33,000,000 church-goers in the United States will hear the gospel of health. This year the Sunday selected is April 24. It is planned that on April 24 tuberculosis sermons shall be preached in all the churches of the country. Literature will be distributed to members of the congregations, and in every way an effort will be made to teach that tuberculosis is a dangerous disease and that it can be prevented and cured.
 Clergymen who desire to obtain ad ditional information in regard to tu- berculosis will be able to secure litera- ture from state and local anti-tubercu- iosis associations and boards of health. as we'll as from the national asso- citation.

Boil WeeviI Forcing South to Cut
 Down Cotton Production.
Means End of Expenditure of Hun dreds of Millions Outside of Dixie" for Supplies - Huge
 Loss for North.

Boston, Mass.-A little brown beetle, less than fourth of an inch long, is gradually changing a whole system of agriculture. He is disturbing the bal anee of trade He is causing the north to lose money.
 This bug, the cotton boil weevil, viewed at first as calamity of stu pendous proportions, is beginning to be appreciated as a blessing in the south
 The cotton plant originated in the plateau region of Central America and south Mexico. For a hundred years or so it has been cultivated in the United States. Also, in the original home Of the cotton plant originated the cotton boil weevil He began to push north ward, few miles each year, hunting cotton to eat
 It was long journey, but in central Mexico fields of the cultivated plant became more pleHttful
 By 1890 practically all Mexico was infected So voracious were the wee wills that in many sections of Mexico cotton planting was abandoned in it's entirety.
 In the first ten years in the United States the annual spread of the boil weevil was 5,640 square miles. Since 1901 the annual increase of infestation has averaged 26,8S0 miles In 1904 5l,500 square miles were infested.
 At present the boil weevil has a Judgment in five states-Texas. Louis jana, Mississippi, Arkansas and Okla homa. Alabama and West Tennessee will be reached in 1911. Georgia and South Carolina and East Tennessee will be invaded in 1912. By 1915 the lnfestation of every nook and cranny ot the entire cotton producing area of the United States will be complete.
 Poison has no effect upon him, for he bores into the immature cotton iOlls (pods holding the lint and seed in embryo) and sucks the juice and sap from the interior.
 Forty-five species of insect enemies of the weevil are known. The para site develops by feeding upon the young boil weevil, which it ultimately kills.
 The only remedy for the weevil is to stop planting cotton, for the weevil feeds upon nothing else A reduction of two-thirds in the cot ton crop in the next six years is very probable. But say it is only 50 per cent Take 11,O00,000 bales as an av- craze crop-it really is less than the average, but for illustrative purposes it will do. At ten cents pound, or $50 bale, the cotton crop is worth | about $550,000000. Add an average of five dollars per bale, value of the cot ton seed. and that gives $55,000,00 more, a total of $6O5, 100000 Cut that down 50 per cent. and there is loss of over $300,00 900 annually on a basis of ten-cent cotton
 Even that price will never be real ized again. Cotton is worth 15 cents pound now-that means S250, 1000. 900 more of loss.

running on credit, too. The eastern and the wholesalers are pinching the merchant. So the planter is com pelled to sell and settle.
 The bank gets it's money-nips off ten per cent. interest and remits it's eastern correspondent The planter been furnishing him with supplies since last settling day. year ago.
 These supplies, including not only clothing, household goods, machinery, etc., but also the most of his food. are bought in the north. Ninety per cent. of his money goes to the north.
 Now, the cotton raiser who under stands these conditions is preparing to beat the boil weevil and the system that takes his money from him. He is going to lessen his cotton production and raise instead all his own food SUD- plies
 When the weevil reaches his farm MT. Farmer can afford to lose the whole crop of cotton and then not be ruined. He is making his living, what he consumes, and a surplus for sale out of the soil
 What cotton he gathers after his wrestle with the boil weevil is clean, clear profit. He can keep the money. He can hold his cotton until he gets an adequate price for it, which he could not do under the credit system

Make Bacchanaiian Festival for Flies and Moths.

Little Rock, Ark-It is not very obvious, from the human point of view, why the ivy should be called the plant of Bacchus, since no wine is made from it's berries Entomolo. gists. however, have found that it's flowers make veritable Bacchanalian festival for a number of insects.
 They are wont to sally forth at night with lanterns to capture the intoxicated moths that crowd around the greenish blossoms. When the will low is in bloom they find a similar scene of dissipation around it's vel low catkins.
 The tippling insect may be used to point a moral by the temperance lec turer, for rum not infrequently leads to it's ruin. A distinguished entomolo gist, after giving recipe for the mix ture of sugaring trees for moths which included beer-said: Add some Jamaica rum just before using; 1t is the rum which attracts them.' After sipping this mixture the moths and butterflies fall from the tree in

 There is a fly so addicted to wine that Linnaeus named it the cellar fly, which appellation Kirby changed to the more appropriate one of the eel lar wine drinker. The latter distin- guished entomologist writes of it thus The larva of this little fly, as can witness from my own ob- servations, disdains to feed on any thing but wine or beer, which, like Boniface in the play, it may be said both to eat and drink, though, unlike its toping counterfeit, 1t is indifferent to tho age of the liquor, which, wheth- CT sweet or sour, is equally accepta- ble"

Wealth in Ancient Times.

William Jacob, in his History of the Precious Metals" estimates from the accounts given by the Roman writers that in the reign of Augustus, the first of the emperors, when Rome was at the height of it's power, the amount of gold in the Roman empire was nearly two billion dollars. This vast treasure had been gathered chief. y by conquest from the various ma. tions of Europe, Asia, and Africa. There had been extensive mines in Spain and in the Atlas mountains of North Africa, but their yield in the wealth of kings and of cities in Asia and Egypt had been despoiled and carried away to enrich the conquerors.
