hits Of the season. Mr.. Blossoms
fondness for enacting the American
Indian has been apparent since he
made his tremendous success in
"Strongheart," so that it is scarcely
surprising to learn that in Where the
Trail Divides" he will again be seen as
an Indian. The star role is that of
How Landor, Sioux Indian of mod
ern dress and habit, who has been
brought up in a white family and well
educated. The man who has taken
him into his family is a rancher, Col
Landor, and he also has an adopted
daughter, Bess. AS the play opens Bess
and How are very much in love, and,
in fact, are engaged to be married.
Lander is told by his physician that
he must prepare for the end, as an
inherited tendency to heart disease has
shown its dread hand. So he has his
nephew, a young Fastener named
Clayton Craig, come out West to ct
tend to his estate after his death.
Craig falls in love with Bess imme-
diately upon his arrival After the
coloners death he takes her east to
show her the world. in the meantime
pressing his suit diligently. She adj

follows her and on the very eve of
the wedding incites crowd of rather
rough citizens to violence and endeav-
ors to have them stop the wedding on
the grounds Of race prejudice. How
prevents this scheme and the we'd
ding ta '-es place after stirring situa-
ton at the close of the second act
Of the play. Bess and How settle down
to a married life which proves very
lonely to her, as all her white friends
shun her because of her marriage to
an Indian. Craig remains on the
scene, and they are together constantly
until How finally becomes aware Of a
new state of affairs when he finds his
wife in Craig's arms. From this time
on the events OF the play lead rapid
ly to the ending which is in every re-
spect a logical one, vet not exactly
the conventional marry and-ltve-h hap

final scene Mr.. Edeson is able to ex-
ert his powers to the utmost and
gives a splendid characterization Of
the American Indian at his best. The
play has been splendidly mounted by
Mr.. Harris and will be interpreted by

tick eradication forces:
Great progress has been and is be-
ing made in the state in Graduating
the ticks and an effort is being made
to put the work on a statewide basis
and if only the proper energy is
brought to bear and sufficient inter
est shown by the officials, stockmen
and farmers, the expectation that Mis-
sissippi will be the first southern
state to completely eradicate the cat
tie ticks from her borders will be full
filled. With this result accomplished
and the state released from Cuaran-
tine, her cattle production can be
shipped or driven to any part of the
country for any purpose, and on &C.
count of this fact, and also that their
condition will be actually better be-
cause Of being tick free and healthy,
they will sell from u to n cents more

SELECTION OF COTTON SEED
Production of Early Variety Is Now
Absolutely Necessary to Get
Ahead Of WeeViIs.

Most of the over-wintered weeyils
are out OF winter quarters by the time
the cotton begins to set squares. A
race that means much and a race that
is watched by all the world then be-
gins. The cotton run the race OF its
life to set squares faster than the
weevils can multiply and puncture
the squares. If the cotton is an early
rapid fruiting variety, the soil quick
making, the seasons ideal for the
growing of cotton, and the crop given
intensive shallow cultivation, 1t goes
out under the wire far in the lead
with a bale or more per acre. But II
the cotton is a late, slow-fruiting va
riety planted on "late" land, the rain
fall above the normal so that frequent
and shallow cultivation cannot be
practiced, the weevils oon destroy all
the squares and then destroy all the
bolls.
The production of an early cotton
is now absolutely necessary. We must
plant early rapid-fruiting, productive
cotton. We must either buy early
and r%apid-fruiting cotton seed or Sc
lect seed from cotton plants with low
fruit limbs and short joints on the
main stem and fruit limbs. The ne
cessity for seed selection has not been
so apparent, but with the coming Of
the weevil the interest in this worl
is becoming intense. Many planters
have imported cotton seed from The
northern and northeastern edge of the
cotton belt. These seed have general
ly proven wholly unsuited to our con
ditions.
The results from experiment sta
tons have proven ~conclusively tina
we may develop early, rapid-fruitini
and productive strains of cotton b,
careful seed selection and thereb.
save ourselves great losses in tn
weevil territory. The results obtainev
show that one selection made fror

FOR A STATE TAX BOARD
SENATOR POTTER WILL INTRO
DUCE BILL CREATING BODY.
Provides for Three Commissioners for
Entire State and Five Deputy
Commissioners.

Jacksonville question of equalizing
TAX assessments has been a veXing one
in Mississippi for many years, and if the
plans of State Senator Clayton D. Pot
ter Of Kinds county mature, this feature
of state government will be adjusted in
a satisfactory manner.
Out of the study he has given the
subject he has evolved a bill which he
will introduce when the legislature
meets.
Briefly, it provides for a state board
of equalization of three members, one
from each supreme court district of the
state. The salaries are to be $4,000 a
year each, with travelling expenses for
the board not exceeding $4,000 a year,
There is to be a clerk also at a salary
of $4, 800. The board is to be appointed
by the governor and each member is re
quired to be well qualified and informed
generally as to state values.
The state board has the authority
then, after the assessors have completed
the rolls, to appoint five assistants, on'
from each supervisors district of eaci
county, which five shall receive S. a da!
for tleir services while actually engaged
in the work of assisting the state boar:
to devise the county rolls, and the stat
board or a quorum thereof shall meet /
each county and with the assistants, re
wise the rolls. These assistants are t
serve for only one year.
