the spread OF the boil weevl.
Destroy the cotton stalks early in

If your less progressive neighbor
does not. Il will pay. Clear off and
burn all your rubbish on ditchbanks
and other alternating places for the
weevil This should be done early
in the fall.
DO not plant cotton after cotton,
but plant your cotton on land that
has grown a heavy crop of COW
peas, velvet beans, lespedeza or some
/ other leguminous crop TO supply the
land with nitrogen and vegetable
matter Break the land in the fall
or early winter that is to be planted
to cotton next year.
Where sufficient teams and tools
are available to pillow under and com
pletely bury the stalks this should
! by all means be done. Where 1t is
impossible to pillow the stalks under
they should be unrooted, raked into

the market could continue to advance
Indefinitely without becoming dangerous
with Liverpool booming, both on
spots and futures, prices on this side
made rather a poor response at the
opening. An official forecast of unset
tied and colder weather in the western
belt, frost being predicted for North

petus, however, but the advance stopped
at the previous high level-13.6O for

1T was from that rather high alti-
tude that the drop came. and while it
lasted the trading around the local ring
was about as excited as il was during
some stages Of the Sully year. The
younger element in the market stood
aside, and the veterans OF the business
took command. and quickly rallied
prices

.SIOELlGHTS'
.ON POLITICS
BY JAMES 3. NEVIN.

There will be held in Atlanta on
November 96 a reunion OF the Geor-
gia Senate OF 1SsS-Sa.
That splendid Senate was sworn in
somewhere along about the last Of
October. 1858. and many members Of
:; still survive. Notwithstanding the
fact that a number Of them have
grown TO be old men. The Atlanta
reunion will be in celebration Of the
25th anniversary OF the Senate's first
session of service.
The reunion was proposed by
former Senator r E. Massengale. Of
Norwood, who has a son in the pres
ent General Assembly.
Mr.. Henry Cabaniss. Of Atlanta,
who vas Secretary OF the Senate at
the time this Senate sat, has the
success of the proposed reunion very
much at heart, and will leave nothing
undone to make the meeting a pleas
ant and profitable one for his old
associates.
In the DAYS Of this Senate, a very
high-class lot of men came 20 the
General Assemblies. particularly be
cause the Judges and Solicitors
General were named by the Legisla-
lures then. and a fight for a United
State Senatorship was confined al
most exclusively within the capitol
walls.
It is estimated that al least 20.
and perhaps 25. members of the Sen
ate of 1859 will be present in At
lanta in November when this reunion
is called 10 order.

The question Of Wheeler County's
legal existence having been raised re-
Gently in Judge Parks court, in Han
cock County, the Judge unhesitatingly
decided the vexed question in favor
Of that new political district OF the
State.
The issues involved an attack upon
the county on two grounds. The con-
tentions of the adverse petitioner
were that the election at which the
amendment creating the county waa
adopted by the people wss not such
general election as is provided for
in the constitution, and that the con-
stitution provides tina, here shall
not be more than 145 counties in the
state
The principal arguments were made
by Col Warren Grice. in the attack
on the new county, and Solicitor Cen
eral William Wooten for the respon-
dent TO the writ.
At the conclusion of the hearing
Judge Park Immediately rendered his
decision UNFOLDING the legality Of
Wheeler.
