May and most of June were
dry here.
Crops were clean and in good
condition when the rains set in
the latter part Of June.
The crop pospects here are very
flattering. Early corn is about
made. Bolls are forming on cot
ton.
The Fourth was gala day for
Meridian. Mr.. Gill Of the Wright
Company gave two exhibitions
in his airship. The first one
only went about four hundred
feet high. He curved around and
swooped down and up again with
all ease. Some buzzards were
sailing leisurely about until they
took fright at the huge bird that
was carrying Mr.. Gill. He chas-
ed them and said he would have
caught them if they had not dart
ed down among the tree tops
where he could not follow. The
second flight he was said to go
about two thousand feet and
would have gone higher if a wind
had not interfered. He descend
ed so rapid many thought his
machine had become unmanag-
able. He lit in a cotton field
about a quarter Of a mile from
The fair grounds where he made
MS start and where he made his
start and where he intended to
light had it not been for the gale.

China and Japan where cheap labor
is abundant. and at present extends
the promise Of playing an important
role in the industries of tho southern
states.
The work in tea culture carried on
at Summerville, s. c.. has continued
to give favorable results. and although
this season was somewhat discourage
ing from the standpoint Of rainfall, the
year has been satisfactory. A ma
chine to prune the plants either in the
nat or convex type Of cut has done
successful work saving expensive hand
labor, and tea-picking apparatus 10
now receiving attention, and some
small samples OF machine-picked tea
have been obtained. When these two
operations are successfully done by
machines, the labor problem in the
American tea raising industry will
have been solved.
or the worlds annual consumption.
exclusive of the very large local use in
China tthe extent of which cannot be
determined) amounting to about 70O,-
100000 pounds, 15O. 900 is produced
IN China and the recent trouble there
Is bound TO interfere to a great extent
with this industry and will in ali prob
ability bring about a readjustment Of
the tea trade Of the world.
The people of the United States all
though considered a coffee drinking
nation, consume annually upward of
100.000,O00 pounds OF tea, for which
$l6,O0D,O00 or more are paid. The i'm
ports OF tea for every NTH year from
1858 to 1903 inclusive, show a general
increase in the quantity OF tea i'm
ported. and 1t is possible by establish
ing tea industry at home to greatly
increase the consumption as has been
done in Great Britain since tea became
a staple Of her colonies in the East In
dies.
The secretary asserts that "the ahil-
ity OF the tea plant to adapt itself to
wide range of conditions Is exceeded
only by wheat and that the climate of
the southern states is in general fairly
suited to its cultivation; for although
the rainfall is much less than in most
OF the producing countries. the av-
eral annual temperature is lower, hence
there is less evaporation and there
fore less rainfall is needed.
For its successful growth the tea
plant requires deep, fertile, wen.
drained, friable and easily penetrable
loan containing large amount of
well-decomposed organic matter. such
as Is found in much of the southern
territory.
In establishing a tea plantation
there is nothing more important than
the selection of the seed, especially
when imported. AS about one only in
every three shipments arrive in good
terminating condition, the cost Of i'm
portations assumes a high figure. When
gardens become general in this coun-
try the expense OF importation will be-
come necessary and even new tea seed
gathered from Pinehurst, S. c., costs
less than So per 100 pounds. while i'm
ported seed costs $50 per 100 pounds.
The difference OF cost of labor which
would appear to condemn the attempt
to establish a tea industry here, does
not exist to the extent generally be-
lieved."
Those interested in the growing and
manufacture Of tea within the bounds
OF the United States. can obtain infor-
nation on the subject by asking the
department of agriculture for the bull
letin.

the best kind of a essential part
thereof, she could cook.
Faithful to the verities, Mr.. Bennett
was careful to have his painter a bit
on the shady side of so. But what
would be wrong with sloe eyes. a VIII
lowy figure, youth, and the ability to
cook as vel? II this be considered
asking too much, heed the words of
wisdom from the fountain head in the
person of Mrs. Henry Wade Rogers.
wife Of the dean OF the Yale Law
school, anent this most interesting
subject:
I'VE certainly recognize the need of
something radical being done when we
know OF the multitude of underfed,
overfed and badly fed people, the
wreckage OF home life from bad man
agement, the lack of knowledge Of
money values as related to food. shell
ter. clothing and other household de-
nnands.'
To recognize need is the first step.
The next is to AFFORD the remedy. AS
BELTS the wife Of Yale professor,
Mrs. Rogers proceeds seriatim and
consecutively. Conscious OF the I'M
certainty of either the direct appeal or
OF moral suasion, she intimates that
It may be necessary for the state to
step In and demand that women be
qualified to keep house before they
can be given marriage licenses.
Loud cheers from so much OF our
diaphragm as remains responsive to
this clarion note Of promised relief!
A wife is boon OF which no man is
really worthy. But a wife and a cook

This play deals with a number of pre-

Klein, by means of this play, to arouse
a sentiment in opposition. as he did
with THE Lion and the Mouse as re-
CARDS financial and political conditions.
The scenes are laid in New York, the
characters are prominent in the predomi-
nant social set. For the first time in
the history of the stage in''The Third
Degree will be portrayed the methods
of the New York police department,
which in many instances have rivalled
the inquisition for barbarity and
cruelty. Mr.. Klein has handled the sub
ject deity and adroitly in a most con
vincing manner and as a result this play
should invite a large attendance to the
performance at the local opera house

deposits in the Bad Lands in northern

were located. Some of great extent and
thickness, the exact figures however,
cannot be given until the seasons field
notes are worked up.
, Some time was also spent in the Kill
deer mountains which were found to rise
$40 feet above the surrounding plain
and contain many interesting problems
