The opening up of subscription

1t has already been decided what
is to be done with it and don't Nor-

pie who will want gas at a nominal
price. If TeXarkana or Monroe had
the gas field of Caddo and ShreNe

scribed instantly. There would be
no quibbling as to what is to be

Cotton CrOp Conditions.

In it's review of the cotton cOndl-
tons the Memphis Commercial APP
peal of August IL says: On an aver
age the crop is estimated to be two
to three weeks later, and in many
fl Ids grown bOIls are very scarce.
On the other hand, there are fields
rearIy up to normal that promise
almost a full yield. Crops are irreg-
Llar in all sections. Insect damage
up to the present has been almost
negligible. but an increase in boil
weevils is noted in Mississippi, and
the cotton caterpillar or leaf worm
has appeared in central and eastern
Texas and in small numbers in Ala
Rama. Further rains or long con-
tinued showers would greatly facili-
tate the spread of the pest. Rain is
now needed only in the extreme
northeastern part of the cotton belt
and in the extreme southwest.

Confederate Money Distributed,

The vast hoard of Confederate
currency seized by the Union army
during the civil war, which has been
stored in the Federal treasury for
half century, is being distributed
among institutions over the coun-
try for preservation as historic rel
les. Already sets of these notes, in
Gliding practically all denomina-
tiOns, have been sent to 800 colleges
and $50 libraries, and the clamOr for
specimens has not been satisfied.
Secretary MacVeagh is supplying
the larger institutions first, and
gradually working down to the
smaller ones, exercising care to see
that every State in the Union re-
ceives its just proportion of the cur
rency to show TO posterity.
