0repared by the United States Depart
 ment of Agriculture)
 Diminutive mites, known as red spiders which gather on cotton leaves in multitudes and suck the plant Juices, constitute one of the little un- derstood but serious pests in cotton growing regions of the southeastern states, according to a recent study made by the United States department of agriculture. Because of the small ness of the insects and the effects of their attacks on the appearance of the leaves, many planters believe that the authenticated fields are suffering from rust. The removal of the juices from the leaves causes them first to redden or turn rusty yellow over the entire surface, and ultimately to dry up and drop. As a result of the loss of foliage, the plants shed many bolls and the yields from the affected fields are therefore materially reduced.
 To prevent injury to cotton from this cause the department of agricul- ture, recommends, in Farmers Bulle- tin 735, by E. 4. McGregor, the de- struction of all weeds around the farm

 A young man was swinging out from the entrance to the building as the chauffeur spoke. He haStened down the pavement, halted where the flowers had fallen and looked up.

 The lad was grinning. It was dull usually, in that conventionally sedate law office. and, boylike. he welcomed a deviation from it's vapid routine.

CEMENT TILE FOR DRAINAGE
They Have Advantage Where Fire Clay Is Not Obtainable-8est Mix
 lure for Small Pieces.

During the last decade cement tile have come to be used extensively for drainage purposes. They have an ad- vantage where fire clay is not obtain able within reasonable distance. The mixture which is found most satisfac- tory for smaller sizes is four parts of clean, sharp sand to one of cement. For larger sizes, q slightly rich mix ture is preferred. Cement tile should be made of a uniform, frst-class mix ture, should be well cured and should be dense. Such tile should be care fully cured and if well made will last indefinitely.
 Where freight is an important item the farmer should choose whatever he can secure the cheapest, whether red or cement tile, provided he can get good, strong tile and get the breakage refunded. Certain alkali salts cause cement to deteriorate and in irrigat- ed districts some precautions should be taken to determine the character of aIka1i before cement tile can be safely used
