PEANUTS INSTEAD OF COTTON.
Boil Weevil Makes Southern Planters
Turn to Other Crops.

Certain sections of the South have
found II practically impossible, owing
to the ravages of the boil weevil. to
raise cotton for the past few years
A Mississippi man SAYS that his coun-

emit Il took II upon myself to In
vestigate the raising of peanuts as a
substitute for cotton My associates
and myself began a public advocacy
of the peanut, and we succeeded in
having about $500 acres of them plant
ed in this section last year. The re-
suits We're SO good that / was called
upon to go to many points in the bolt
weevil-stricken districts to tell them
about the peanut.
THE results of these visits is that
it is variolisly estimated that there
will he anywhere from 100000 10 $780,,
GOO acres planted in the white Spanish
peanut in this state alone the coming
season. And Louisiana, which last
year had something like 10000 acres
under the crops. will increase her acre
age the coming season to fully 100000
acres.
That the peanut is a money crop
Is now no longer doubt. and it Will
always be fixture on the farms IN
this state and Louisiana. 1t is found
that the hay made from the peanut
vines is more nutritious than timothy,
and also that the hay will more than
pay crops.
TT has been proven through my
own experiments that the oil from the
peanut is os very much higher
grade than cotton oil, and hence it is

The delegation met recently to
elect a chairman and organize for
the new congress. Randell was elect-
ed by reclamation. The position is
honorary, and of no Importance. But
Senator Bailey did not see it that
way.
That night Senator Bailey sent for
some of his supporters in the house
ami told them the selection of Ran
dell was offensive to him, and that

it might be interpreted to mean that
the congressional delegation was

himself for the senate.
The next day, on request of some
OF the Bailey followers, the delega-
ton met again. Fifteen members
lwere present. George Burgess, a

Mr.. Randell as chairman of the dele

willing to do it over again and do it
slow. Therefore he made the motion
himself, and the action of the pre-
