MAKES SOIL SURVEY

/ Jackson, Miss, June DIR. e. N
Lowe, state geologist, is spending con
siderable of his time under his hat, in
the carrying on of his field work, and
seems to be profiting by it physically
He is director of the geological, eco
nomic, typographical and soil survey
of the state, as provided for and ere
ated by chapter III of the acts of 1906
and is the second man appointed I'M
der the provisions of that act, having
succeeded DR.. A. F. Crider, who re-
signed several years ago For long
while the state geologist had little
more than desk room in the capitol
building, and owing to the constant
demand for his services in the field
his visits here were only at rare inter.
walls. Of late years the work has
grown in Importance and volume, es
pecially since the state and federal
officers Joined forces, and this condi-
ton necessitated the acquisition OF
larger quarters.
DR.. Lowe reports that at the present
time the most important work before
him is the soil surveys which are be
ing carried on in conjunction with the
representatives of the United States
Bureau OF Soils, though naturally ow-
ing TO the lack Of funds, this work is
considerably restricted. Study and
analyses of soils have been made in
probably one-third of The counties,
and it is found impossible to comply
with all applications as they reach
him, for surveys of this character.
Another line of investigation which
has occupied DR.. Lowe of late has
been the study and research into the
underground water supply-deep and
shallow wells, springs, artesian wells,
and also water power generally as
adapted to industrial and economic
purposes. He is now receiving data
along this line of investigation, from
various counties and localities on
question cards which have been sup
piled by the United States geological
and typographical survey, and experts
to shortly issue special bulletin on
the subject.

Belzoni, Miss, June 1. = The de-
crease in the acreage OF cotton plant
ed in this section as compared with
last year is conservatively estimated
at Is per cent The decrease would
have doubled this per centage had it
not been for the opening up of so
much new land. Cotton for the most
part in the section has a good stand,
only occasionally has it been found
pecessary to replant. Practically all
the planting has been done and a ma
iority of the crop has been chopped.
1t is estimated that the crop will be
two weeks earlier than last year,
which damaged the crop considerably
last year.
For several days past the weather
has been most too cold for the good
of the cotton crop, but it is very ia
vorable at this time

over the Delta has been increased 100
per cent, and a large amount of Sudan

extra large beads on them. Should

bic that of this year
