TO RID CITY
Of NUISANCE

Within a few days the city will be
burdened, with the yearly nuisance:
the FLYING cotton. Two years ago
the city authorities thought to cope
with the situation by cutting down
the cotton bearing trees. but since
this would take such large percent
age of the shade of the city this
scheme was abandoned.
Now this same problem is facing
the city officials again.
one of the prominent merchants
of the city today suggested scheme
which seems not only feasible, but
also practical. IL is that The city
make use of the numerous hoboes in
the city and top the cotton bearing
trees before the cotton bolls are
ripe and burst. Almost all of the
cotton grows on the top or near the
top of the trees, and it would be a
comparatively simple matter to, dis
pose of great deal of this Yearly
nuisance
Besides. the hoboes need the work.
