Swat the WeevH.

Mr.. John V. Williams, who has been
a cotton buyer in Meridian for a long,
long time, was ia town last week on a
regular tour of inspection of the cotton
fields of East and North Mississippi.
He gets around about every ten days,
and is therefore able to give a very ac-
,curate estimate of the plants condi-
ton. Mr.. Williams says that while the
general condition of the crop in the
county had improved, Noxubee was the
Erst county of the twenty or more that
re had inspected, that showed that the
levil were multiplying and doing dam
he. The price of cotton this fall, is
Z. ore apt to be soc than zoe. with hardly
possibility that it will be below the
asst figure. If the farmers ever had
incentive to put up a good, stiff,
lard fight for a crop, 25c a pound cot
ron should furnish it. Think of it every
four pounds of cotton saved from the
weeyil is a dollar made. Swat the vice.
vii and grow rich.
