Queer Funeral i'm Madagascar

From the Atlanta Constitution.
In Madagascar. upon the death of any
man of position, on the day of the fun
era the wife is placed in the house
dressed in all her best clothes and wear
ing her silver ornaments. of which in
general she possesses considera BILE
quantity. There she remains until the
rest of the family return from the tomb
But as soon as they enter the house
they begin to revile her with most
abusive language. telling her that it is
her fault that her winiana, or fate, has
been stronger than that of her husband
and that she is virtually the cause of his
death. Then they strip her of her clothes
tearing off with violence the ornaments
from her ears and neck and arms; they
give her a coarse cloth. a spoon with a
broken handle. and a dish with the foot
broken off with which to eat; her hair is
disheveled and she is covered with a
coarse mat and under that she remains
all day long, and can> only leave it at
night: and she may not speak to any one
who goes into the house. She is not al
lowed TO wash her face or hands, but only
the tips of her fingers.
The Madagascar widow endures all this
sometimes for year. or at least for eight
months, and even when this is over her
time for mournil z is not ended for con-
siderable period she is not allowed to
go home to het relatives until she
has been first q by her husband S
family.

OF boil weevil infestation uay be most
rapidly and Immediately put in force,
even among the less progl essive of our
farmers The plan of campaign is 10
form in each county of the state an or
ganization of a central county advisory
committee through which local conditions
and problems may be considered and
plan of campaign outined that will tie
adopted to the special needs and op-
portunities of the county in question.
This committee would outline certain
purposes that should be kept in view
and suggest conditions by which the ad-
vancng system can be utilized in bring
ing about such cooperation by the mer-
chants and farmers as shall safe guard
the making of necessary advances that
may be required to hold labor on our
farms and enable our farmers to main
tain at least the level of value of their
total farm products. This cooperative
plan of campaign has already been
adopted by number of leading counties
in Alabama. Through such united, de-
finite and purposefu action it is certain
that Alabama can move forward in spite
of the boil weevil as no other state has
yet done. Our experience may be an
inspra tion and guide to Georgia and
other states which will soon be invaded
Prosperity can be increased and we need
never suffer the long period of depression
that has commonly occurred following
the weevil invasion These highly desir-
able results can be certainly attained
only by immediate and determined CO.
operation in the boil weevil campaign.

HONOR FOR INSANE ARTIST
National Academy of Design Chooses
Man in Asylum for 16 Years

From the New York Sun
The name of Ralph Albert Blakelock
an artist. who had been confined in an
insane asylum for the last 16 years.
was at the head on the list of cand-
cate membership in the National Acad-
emy of Design at the spring meeting
of the acadmey a few night ago.
There were 81 other candidates but
Mr.. Blakelock alone received the unan-
imous support of the 100 academicians
voting. The decision to honor Mr..
Rlakelock was made some weeks ago.
after one of his paintings had beer
sold for $4,000 and others had been
hung in the Metropolitan Museum In
stitute the Corcoran Gallery and the
National Gallery in Washington,
The career of Mr. Blakelock, it was
explained, was one of the tragedies of
american art. He was born in New
York. October 10, 1S47. and gained his
art education here. He refused to at
tend the art schools. but studied with
whatever artist took his fancy. His first
fame came from Indian canVases and
the greatest of these he painted just be-
fore ii was discovered that he was yio-
lently insane.
When he was at work on this icture
'.The Pine Dance now in the Metro
politan Museum his friends found him
in his study playing a piano violently
and then working on the painting
which was arranged on the piano II
place of a piece of music. He was
playing the piano and painting at the
same time, he explained, because he
needed the rhythm of the dance AS
a matter of fact it was the rhythmic
swing of the dancers that made the
painting famous
Blakelock soon afterward threatened
his wife with a knife and she was
forced to call the police He was taken
I'd Matteawan, where he was confined
six years and was then transferred to
an asylum in the upper part of the
state. No effort will be made to notify
him of the honor conferred upon him
it was said at the academy.

Men Vainer Than Women

From the Cologne Gazette.
Those who cling to the old legend
that woman is vainer than man should
spend a couple of hours in a large hair
dresser's salon in Berlin. The manner
in which its patrons give direc-
tions for the beautifying of their per-
sons contains so much vanity that, for
very shame, one is forced to abandon
the alleged superiority to the fair sex
"rhe male hides this under an abrupt
manner and an absorbed businesslike
air, designed to impress the world with
an idea of the piles of work waiting
for him; but it also conveys a distinct
hint that the would-be Narcissus desires
the slave of the brush and comb to turn
him into blooming Apollo with all
possible speed. The modern Figaro is

meeting of merchants from a merchandise
market into an exhibition of samples,
says consular report, is intimately con-
nected with the gradual transformation
in the industrial life of middle Europe,
and the change in the character of the
merchandise exhibited is likewise closely
associated with this gradual growth
The principal goods handled at the
Leipsic fair by means of samplcs-name-
ly, pottery glassware. metal goods, no.
tons, fancy goods, toys and allied wares
were at one time sold and delivered as
merchandise at the fair. References to
articles sold at Leipsic are found in doc
uments of the sixteenth and seventeenth
centuries. Merchants of Nuremberg,
Augsburg and many other towns came
to Leipsic and did a lourshing trade
with the crowds of strangers hocking to
that city, and "all things needful to the
comfort of the human body were to be
had there in the merchandise from wool,
flax, gold, silver, brass, steel, iron, wood
numerous minerals, according to the re-
port of a chronicler in the eighteenth CEN
fury, while others name paper and card
board goods, watches, dry goods of the
most varied description, cutlery, etc.
Fancy goods made and sold by French
men and Italians are likewise mentioned.
Provisions played an important part in
the early trading at the Leipsic fair, and
agricultural products, raw materials Tor
Industrial use. and the ready products of
the textile, metal and ceramic trades
came later
Important changes took place in Eu-
rope, and particularly in Gernany-the
development of the factory system, the
increase of the population and of the
home consumption of merchandise, the
Capitalization and unification of Ger
many, and the improvement in the means
of transportation. All these elements
more or less affected the trading at the
Leipsic fair.
Originally the fair was one of the few
places where large quantities of goods
could not only be inspected but also de-
livered and accepted The financing of
business had one of it's important centers
in Leipsic Emperors assured the Lepsic
traders security of life and property and
business drifted there because of special
safety In the course of time the handling
of many classes of goods was taken over
by Leipsic wholesalers, Independent of the
fair This refers TO wool and yarns, to-
bacco, wines. paints, orea drugs, chemi-
Gals, etc, and it may be said that all OF
these important lines, now handled on so
large scale by Leipsic jobbers, first
found their way into this district through
the fair where these goods used to be
sold in b11lK

MAKING A SUCCESSFUL
BOIL WEEVIL FIGHT
BY w. r. KINDS
state Entomologisf

The weeYil advance of 1912 brought this
pest into territory producing normally
about two-fifths of the Alabama state
crop. Twenty-Five counties are now
wholly or partly within the infested area
The 1912 weevil line extends from Sui
ngent in Lamar county in a general
southeasterly direction passing a short
distance west of Tuscaloosa, several miles
east of Selma, north of Greenville with
IN about 10 miles southwest ef Troy and
passing out of me state into Florida
In the vicinity of Geneva. The advance
OF 1913 is quite certain to cary the weevil
into Marion and probably Franklin coun-
~ on the north, thence crossing the
southern part of Jefferson county, in
Guiding probably all of Chiffon, Mont
somery and Bullock counties and passing
INTO southwestern Georgia somewhere
The Birmingham age-herald., 1913-05-04

between Columbus. Ga, and Eufaula, Ala.
Within practically all of the territory
brought within the weevi line of 1872
the weevil may be expected this year to
be more or less important factor in
cotton production. Probably few citi-
zens of Alabama realize that in 1912 the
boil weevil cut the cotton crop in some
counties first infested in 1910 to the ex-
tent of. 80 per cent We should realize
that the weevil is capable of repeating
here in Alabama substantially the same
injury that it has inflicted in Mississippi
and other sections where soil and climate
conditions are similar to our own.
From careful study of weevil damage
il various sections and through series
of years, it is evident that the greater
loss has usually occurred where with
heavy type of soil there occurred

LIVE STOCK INTERESTS
At THE COMING FAIR

Since Mississippi has begun to attrac;
the nation toward its unsurpassed ad
vantagcs as live stock raising state
each year finds at the State Fair an
increased number of contestants, some
coming from as far as Illinois and
Michigan. 1t is gratifying to note, how,
ever, that those who have gone into
the business on good scale in this sta te
have not only been able to hold their
own at the State Fair, but to go abroad
and bring home the blue ribbons. The
Davis farm near Jackson is an example
of what can be accomplished in live
stock raising in Mississippi.
The people are just beginning to real
ize what future the state has before
it in this respect. 1t means wealth, in
dependence and advancement of the
most beneficial kind
Reports indicate that cholera has
dealt fatally in various parts of tho
state with swine this year, but that
does not mean that the swine exhibits
are to be curtailed. 1t is all the more
reason that every Mississippi farmer
interested in swine should meet at the
fair in October and November and dis,
cuss this vital subject from every view
point At the same time bring along
the best specimens from their own neigh
borhood as encouragement to the 9th
ers.

VEGETABLES, FRTITS, AT FAIR

The most favorable season for fruit
and vegetables that Mississippi has
known in wears is sure to have its eff.
feet in the culinary department, as it
is said more products of this kind have
been canned and put in jars this season
than at any previous time, This de.
partmcnt is one which the ladies' have
taken pains to develop gradually each
year, and is in the care of Miss Frances
Lusk. Beginning with few small cans
aud jars of fruit and exhibited by lin.
tied number, the department has been
enlarged to an extent that attracts not
only those familiar with household du.
ties, but mere man" himself whose
mouth is sure to water at the sight OF
the delicious jars of fruits and condi.
ments intended for his eyes only.

POULTRY AND DOGS AT FAIR

The people will be glad to know that
Mr.. ". {. Taylor, superintendent of the
poultry department, predicts that the
State Fair will continue to hold the
Southern record on poultry again. None
OF the other fairs in. this section have
yet approached the poultry show in
numbers or in class either.
This is one of the most successful de.
partments the State Fair has. Visitors
from other states are loud in their praise
OF Mississippi raised fowls.
1t will be a source Of delight to dog
fancIcrs to know that the enthusiastic
Mord Fuller will again have charge OF
the CANNES at the State Fair this year.
Mr. Fuller started earlier this year than
before in booking his entries.
