ID THE PICAYUNF

It will doubtless be interesting to your many readers, to know how things are moving in Nevada concerning crops. l will try to give the wanted information. 1 have l3 men working under Dem onstratlon methods, W h o are making 30 bales of cotton on 30 acres of land, then we have 10 boys who are making Is bales of cotton on IF acres of land.
 There is a number of others do- ing well that will not quite get a bale per acre, but are doing re- markedly well. These yeilds are being made with the use of com- mercial fertilizer, except in one case where 3 acres, we estimate will make three bales of cotton. This is the first time that such yeilds have been made in Nevada County so far as this wri t e r knows.
 The corn crop is good consider ing the wet backward Spring. We will harvest from 20 to 75 bu per acres in a number of in- stances. Peas, Peanuts and Hay are fine. We will bave the homi- ny, but where is the hog.
 The State Fair at Hot Springs November 11-16 is urging nc to bring exhibits from Nevada County. They are offering $10 for the best 10 ears of corn, vel tow or white that is brought. l wish I had lot of the nice things around the county, such as corn, cotton, potatoes, apples, pears, pumpkins, red pepper, tomatoes, can goods. needle work and the many things that we have.

THE FALL WEED CROP

On most farms at this season weeds of many kinds are bloom- ing and ripeping seed They are to be found in the pastures, in corners of cultivated fields, along creeks and fences and d l c h banks and terraces, in the gar den and the early truck patches perhaps. To allow all t h e C weeds to mature means thatthere will be the sameabundant supply next year, and to allow them to die and dry up standing means that their one value, their ability to add to the hamus content of the soil, will largely be lost.
 One of the jobs demanding special attention just now is the cutting down of all these intrud- CTS. They should have been cut before seed begon to form, of course; but better latethan never. It will pay to cut them any time before frost rather than to leave them standing.
 In the pastvres and wherever i it can be be used the moving machine is the best weed destroy CT. A good moving machine properly used can do a lot to add to the fertility of the soil. When ever there is a little time 1t should be put to work; and it will pay to make a little extra effort to keep it going. Fewer weeis next year better crops, better land, and a more attractive farm will be the result.
 In many cases, however 1t will be necessary to depend upon ot- her means the scythe, the hoe, etc. This is more strenous work and much slower than if done with a mower, but it should not on that account be neglected. Clean fencerows and ditch banks not only add to the looks of the farm but a l S 0 to its profits. Even if it is too late to prevent those big weeds in the barnyard and about the garden fence from re-seeding themselves, it is bet ter to have them lying on the ground and beginning to decay than to have them standing up, stark and imprudentthrough half the winter advertising the fact that at this place lives a farmer who raises crops of weeds and lets them go to waste.

4 LETTER FROM GEO. B. COOK

We publish this letter at the request of MT. Moore. Mir. M. L. Moore,
 Prescott, Arkansrs. Dear Sir;
 In response to your letter of the 4th instant, 1 beg to advise that all children of school age are entitled to the free school privi- leges in whatever district may be the bona fide residence of the parents of guardians of such children.
 As soon as the parent or guard ian of a child or children of school age removes from school dis trict, his free school rights and privileges cease in that distric [ and as soon as his residence is taken up in another district he becomes entitled to the free school privileges in that district. It is contemplated in the law, both in the statutes and consti- tuition, that every child shall have free school privileges in one, but only one. school district. and that this privilege shall obtain at all times for some specific district, and that is the school district which is the bona fide residence of the parents or guardian of the child.
 The fact that the child is not included in h e school census in no sense authorizes the exclu- sion of that child from school pri- vileges.
 Very truly yours, Geo. B. Cook, State Supt. Public Instruction.
