new ORLEANS COTTON
MEN OPTIMISTIC
HERMANN G. WOLF SEND OUT
ENCOURAGING MARKET
LETTER.

Herrmand G Wolf, one OF the lar
gest cotton firms of New Orleans, sees
silver lining to the war cloud and
advises lis paSrons not to be alarmed.
The letter in part follows:
''The enforced liquidation of securi-
ties will doubtless disturb the bust
ness equipoise CT this country for a
time. The war. however will immedi-
ately add enormously to the value OF
our food crops, and will ultimately
stimulate our industrial activity and
greatly increase the basic wealth of
the nation. Economies wi likely &c
press cotton for awhile, but vacuum
viii speedily be created. The time
always comes when the need for
clothing is just as imperative as the
need for food and there is every
reason to believe that the vacuum will
be filled at price fully compensating,
and more, for the loss caused by any
period of temporary depression. There
never was a time perhaps when cam
ness of mind was more needed by the
business interest of the country than
the present, or where it promises
larger reward.
is obvious that our financial lead
ers should point out the great increase
In wealth that is sure to come from
this war, and throw the whole weight
of their influence against any tendency
to excitement and the reckless sacri-
fee of good property. This country
has abundant resources to carry all of
its good securities. 1t is obvious also,
that the cotton interest should calmly
prepare to tide over a period of tenn
pOrary depression with the full conf
dence that big reward is sure to
come, and much sooner perhaps than
many expect. 1t is. clearly best to
keep out of the market until there has
been a normal readjustment.'

UNB|DDEN IMMIGRANTS.
DE VI ! y VAST TRACTS
DO GREAT DAMAGE TO
VEGETATION.

Washington, Aug. 3.-Two unbid-
den immigrants came into the United
States some years ago; today, they are
the objects of the combined attack OF
the federal and several state govern
ments, which have turned to Europe
and Asia for help in their fight. Not
only have the two unwelcome visitors
devastated vast vegetable tracts in this
country, but one of them has original
ed and introduced a new human all
ment that is doing great damage to
the summer resorts. The two immi-
grants are the gypsy moth and the
brown-tail moth. The warfare being
waged against them is described in
a communication to the National Geo
graphic Society at Washington, d. c.,
by DR.. l.. o. Howard.
The gypsy moth, according to the
writer, was brought to this country
for experimental purposes by French
professor of astronomy in New Eng
land university. It's importation is
about the only case of it's kind on rec
ord. The brown-tail moth came to our
shores in the normal course of COM
merce. From 1892 until 1900, both
species were confined to Massachus-
etts, where a bitter fight was waged
against them by the state. From 1900
to 1905, however, they were unmolest-
ed, except by individual property hold
ers. Since 1905, Massachusetts has
been Joined in her fight by New Hamp-
shire, Maine, Rhode Island and Cen
necticut, into which states the pests
migrated. And now the United States
government has stepped in to prevent
the further spread over the face of the
country. .r.
Ride on Automobiles.
Since the young of the, moth prefer
the leaves of certain trees for food,
the states are removing these trees
from the forests subject to the moth
attack. In some cases, the problem
may mean ultimate reforestation. The
female gypsy moth does not fly, but
the species was spread when the in
sect, while in the caterpillar stage,
crawled on trolley cars, automobiles
and other vehicles, and upon the
clothes of pedestrians. This condi-
ton was remedied by driving the pests
from the highways for distance OF
so to 100 feet. Enormous wire screens,
coated with a sticky substance to en-
tangle them, erected to the windward
of infected woods, demonstrated the
fact that many young caterpillars,
suspended by their silken thread, were
carried by the wind to distance OF
six miles or more, and the attacking
forces are now concentrating their
efforts along the border of spread. As
an added precaution to spread of the
pests, all products shipped from the
infested region are rigidly inspected
for the larvae of the insect. The fe'
male brown-tail moth is strong flyer,
but fortunately she is not SO hard TO
control. Early spring and fall spraying
and the cutting on and burning Of the
characteristic winter nests have
brought wonderful results.

to say you would go and then not keep
your word. However, you should no.

A man doesn't necessarily care a
great deal for a girl when he tells her
she is pretty and he likes her ways. He
has probably said that to a good many
other girls, my dear. If he really likes
you, he will find a way of meeting
you properly and of showing you that
he respects you by asking to call al
