WEATHER AND CROPS
The Fields Are White With Gotten
Picking and Ginning General.

| n. q. Picayune Oct. 2: The pas
week has shown a continuance O.
the line weather that has prevailed
all through September. Some show
ers have occurred along the gull
coast as well as along the Atlantic
coast section, but there has been lit
tie rain elsewhere. The fields eyery-
Where are white with cotton and
picking and ginning are going ahead
rapidly. Although the season for
frost is now rapidly approaching.
the crop generally is so Harvard
that the possibility Of frost attracts
little fear except in those sections
where there is a. prospect of a top
crop If frost is not experienced too
|early.
While few care to hazard an
opinion as to the size of the crop.
there is general disposition to re-
vert to the big crop ideas enter
tanned prior to the great August de-
terioration. That the crop has re-
covered greatly during September
seems certain, and as the acreage is
unquestionably the largest ever
grown, the expectation of "a bumper
crop, even allowing for the August
setback, is not unreasonable. At the
rate at which cotton is being mar
kete dit is difficult to figure out any
other than large crop.
The rice crop is being marketed
steadily, and, although the quality
has been hurt to some extent by the
two frequent rains in the rice dis
tract, there is every reason to ex-
pect good crop. The market is
fairly satisfactory. The corn crop is
turning out quite good, although
hardly as large as was expected
early In the season.
Although the rains are still too
frequent to suit the wishes of cane
growers, it is nevertheless admitted
hat cane continues to grow luxu-
riantly, and heavy tonnage for the
mills is now assured.

TELEPHONE WIRES
Ordinance by the Council-It Is In
tended to Retire the Cumberland
Telephone and Telegraph Go.

At their session held yesterda,
forenoon the Council enacted an or
dlnance to its first reading provid.
ing authority for the removal of The
wires OF the Cumberland Telephone
and Telegraph Company from the
poles to underground in the busi-
ness section of the city.
| Why limit the underground to the
business section? Why not require
Jail such wires to be underground
throughout the coroprate limits of
the city if necessary?
1t is observed that the ordinance
does not extend any franchise of
this corporation. The Cumberland
Company operates under the au-
thority Of the franchise of the Citi-
gems Cooperative Telephone Com
pany of Shreveport, of which it is
the successor, but there is no grant
in this charter for the tearing up
Iof the streets.
1t was intended to convey these
rights to the Citizens Cooperative
Telephone Company of Shreveport
by an ordinance of the Council
adopted April fl, 1895, but which is
unsigned as it appears on page 234
of the city records.
The charter of the Great South
ern Telephone Company is about to |
expire, and the charter of the
Shreveport, Red River and Natchi-
toches Telephone Company limits
its terminus to Shreveport.
In the ordinance authorizing the
tearing up of the streets there
should be the strictest of require
ments in replacing the streets in the
very best condition, requirement
neglected too frequently and toll
which little attention is given by the
city authorities.

'xacted from corporations using the
