FIRST OF STATE
TO BE BRIGADIER
GENERAL U. S. A.
General Evans viii Command Division
Of Militia Affairs as Ma
tionaI Guard.

jackson, Miss, Jan. 17.-Gen. Robt
r. Evans, native Mississippian, will
in few days, take command of the
division of militia affairs of the United
states army, which will make two Mis-
sissippians serving in that division.
The other officer is Capt F. D. Lock
ridge of Itawamba county, who, next
to General Evens, will be the ranking
member of this board.
General Evans promotion took place
Friday, Jan. 10. He was scheduled for
promotion to brigadier general some
time ago, but he was not actually pro-
NOTED till the most unlucky day in the
year, If Friday, the 18th, counts for
anything.
General Evans is the first Missis-
sippian who ever held this rank in the
United States army. He was born
only few miles west of Jackson, and
was here on a visit about year ago,
accompanied by Mrs. Evans. He is re-
garded as one of the best officers in
the United States army, and has rec
ord that has stood him in great stead
in this promotion.
General Evans was promoted with
the understanding that he was to be
put in charge of the division of militia
affairs, and since he has always taken |
a deep interest in the State National
Guard, which he considers an import |
ant branch of the army, he will do
much toward building up this service,

some sections amounting almost to to
tai abandonment OF the cotton crop
but the deficit will be made good in
other sections where the weevil has
not made its appearance.
This is especially true of the upper
sections of the delta, where planters
are making extensive plans to increase
their cotton acreage. The exodus OF
negroes from the boil weevil counties
to the delta will enable them to do
SO. During the past three months
thousands of acres or wild lands have
been cleared, and will be pitched in
cotton. The delta planters are sup
piled with labor, for the first time in
many years, and, realizing that they

North Section Busy.
The same can be said of farmers in
many of the Northern counties. While
they will not plant cotton to the ex-
clusion of all other crops, at the same
time the present high price of the sta
pie offers to them an exceptional temp
tation to pitch the maximum acreage,
especially in view of the fact that
during the past season the crop was
almost failure in some Northern
counties, and the farmers feel that it
is hardly probable they will encoun-
ter two bad seasons in succession.

In the boil weevil counties the farm
9rs are making good Roadway in their
plans for the planting of crops other
han cotton. Peanuts. potatoes, oats,
md the various forage crops, will be
given attention, and the farmers feel |
hat they are going to get through the

The live stock industry is also coming

While the boil weevil is unquestionably
