cotton is that three big crop years
seldom come consecutively. On the
other hand boil weevil conditions
caused very early planting over
larger acreage than ever before has
been set out in the king of staples.
In the eastern belt there has been
too little rain and west Of the Mis-
sissippi it has been too cold. Large
areas have had to be replantei and
there has been shortage of good
seed. But even under these adverse
conditions there are plenty Of author
tiles who confidently predict l6,-
100000 bale crop.
Now that warmer weather has set
in, there is reason to think that the
slowness in early termination will be
more than overcome. The danger OF
floods from the Mississippi is past
and there will be at least 100000
bales raised on land that was under
water at planting time last year.
Now that the crop is getting well
started the chances seem to favor it,
as the plants have been Injured 10
the changeable climate Of the cotton
belt through generations. But regard
less of the strength Of the plant the
arch enemy, the boil weevil, has to
be considered, and as to his ravages
no one can predict with any degree
of certainty

AFTER KICK BY HORSE
COW WALKS ON HIM

TACOMA. Wash, Aug l3--feorge
Simmons, of Meeke: junction. near
Puyallup, is all broken up over the
way his horse and COW treated him
when he was doing the milking.
George and his animals are generally
good friends, which makes Simmons
all the more panied when his wife
rubs linament on his wounds and
again tells MIN the story OF how IL
happened
Simmons had just finished milking
when he arose suddenly The horse,
who took friendly interest In the
operation and was looking on, was
startled at the sudden manner in
which Simmons arose, and whirled
around and kicked. Three fractured
ribs were the result.
Simmons, who is a man who never
murmurs or repines at little things,
declared afterward he would not feel
so aggravated had the affair ended
there, but to have the COW walk on
him after he had been injured by the
horse was rubbing it on a little thick.
he thought
Simmons was given medical atten.
tion and will recover, says his physi-
elan.
