HARDx JAPANESE PUNK.

Plums of the Japanese variety are
popular with most growers, particularly
in the east, because they are hardy and
come on early. Many of these varieties
are the earliest in the market, and as
they are always of good color, either
cherry reds. or light yellows. they sell
readily and bring good prices.
They win grow well on almost any
kind OF decent soil. and do not need to
be particularly coddled although they
should have all the care that any good
fruit tree deserves.
Mr. and Mrs. Fullerton, Of the Long
Island Railroad Experiment farm, Med
ford. N. Y, nave a number of these
plum trees.
These trees were planted four years
ago In soil from which pine scrub had
been grubbed only a few weeks before.
The trees are bearing well and show fine
color and great vigor.
The japanese plum differs from the do
nestle varieties in that its leaves are
lsnger, thinner, and smoother. and 1t has
greater tendency to produce lateral
fruit-buds on the annual growth. Its fruit
Is mostly short, round and plump.
The Japanese plum is less liable to
injury from curculio and blackknot than
the domestic variety. Mr.. Fullerton says
that up to this time his trees have shown
no signs of disease or attack from in
sects of any kind.

GOSPEL CRY OF FARMERS
One Hundred and Forty-Nine
Chairmen Named by Texas
Governor OF

AUSTIN, Tex, Nov. Some hundred
and forty-nine chairmen in as many
Texas counties have been appointed by
Gov o. b. Colquitt to assist in spread
ing the gospel of Hold your cotton"
This fast became known today when
Mr. Colquitt made public letter he
had written 20 Governor O'NeaI, of Ala
bama urging him to follow his lead.
The governor further declared that
the campaign Of education would be
followed with neighborhood meetings
in which an endeavor would be made
to show the cotton planter the advant-
age of marketing his cotton slowly and
in reducing his acreage. The chairmen
are Farmers Union men. They will be
assisted by an additional appointee in
each county whom the governor intends
to name in the near future.
In support of the campaign projected
for this year to hold cotton the COVER
nor says his information shows the
Indian cotton crop is from 100000 to
500, 600 bales short that China and
Japan will require 100000 more bales
than in 1910 and that the needs Of the
continent will total similar amount,
making the total consumption of Amer
lean cotton. according to the governors
figures 14,750,000 bales instead of 49,
$50, 900, as announced at the New Or
leans meeting of governors OF southern
states.
Governor Colquitt was chosen at the
New Orleans conference to devise ways
and means to secure a better price for
cotton. He says the letter to Governor
O'Neal outlines the steps re has taken
thus far and indicates the plan he
thinks the governors of other southern
states oug-- to follow.

ADJ MEN OFFER CUP
At AVIATION MEET
Also Hear Aviation Address
From A. w. Davis at Tues
day Evening Banquet

(. A silver loving cup was offered by
the AID Men at their banquet Tuesday
night as a prize in the aviation meet
that is to be held in Atlanta for three
days, beginning next Thursday week.
When the subject was proposed 1t was
accepted with great enthusiasm, and the
gathering voted unanimously to offer the
cup.
What special event the cup will be as
signed to as a prize has not yet been
decided. 1t was suggested. however, that
1t be offered to the aviator who can
make the quickest delivery of United
States mail from the aviation grounds
to the nearby postoffice. Three celebrat-
ed bird-men, Wilmer, Beachey and An
drews will carry mail posted at the aerial
postofice and great interest is already
existing as to the time and manner of
the deliveries, for the destination VIII
always be under secret control.
A. w. Davis made a talk before the
assembled Ad Men on the general sub
ject of aviation, and the problems that
are confronting the science. Mr.. Davis
is a member of the Curtiss Aviation COM
pany, of Hammondsport, N. Y, and is in
Atlanta making preliminary al dh5C-
ments for the coming meet.
He told of the fight which aviators
are continually making against the OBJ
stacles that hinder the perfection of the
aeroplane-the varying stratas of air that
are liable to catch him unaware and send
his machine over on its side. the many
little parts in the mechanism that are
frail and yet vital, the precariousness of
quick landing and yet the necessity
for it.
All these problems were discussed by
Mr.. Davis, who was listened to with
great interest by the banqueters. He told
also of the aerial mail delivery and what
that meant to the future of America, IN
revolutionizing communication.
1.-THE aviators and the postoffice de-
partment are cooperating all the time
he said. Gin working out experiments In
mail delivery. The aerial delivery was
only authorized by the government about
a month ago in Rochester. and there we
made three trips carrying 5000 pieces OF
mail. The Atlanta aerial station ought
to be as successful and help also in
working out the problems of delivery"
