MORGAN COUNTY FAIR.

Long before Tuesday night, on the
main road at Deer Lodge, hooded III
wagons, buggies, horseback riders au-
tomobiles and walkers in DuncheS'
sometimes of 5 or 10.
Here and there could be seen specl-
mems of agriculture in the coming
WAGONS. This was for exposition OF Oh
the fair ground. The landlords took
cara before Tuesday to fix the side
walks and decorate their houses. rev
stands appeared wrapped AROUND Will
Old Glory. 1900 -
At that time silent Deer Lodge be-
came an active spot in our Sunny
Tennessee, and it seemed TO stfanse
eve that our county is progressing anu
is taking care of its soclal as We'll do
economical welfare. -,
Wednesday morning already coulu
be seen hundreds Of jars hlled up WIN
the best products that our hara"ork-
ing women produced. Crochet' eH-
broidery, homemade cakes, cahulee'
bread, etc. 4.o
Looking upon them and upon the
field products brought to the counters
of the fair, really every one Woulu u
saw: Eyes, Uncle Sam can be assured
that every one under the stars ana
Stripes is doing earnestly his share
we especially want to point out tnat
the highest prize in preparedness De
longs to the women of our country
and if Russian and French women
gave their bodies to compose the com
panies, then our women gave Iheii
souls to feed the companies.
No matter how large is her ehort'
but il is one, and as result we see III
our little county of one of the numer'
Gus states a considerable pile OF uIhel'
ent kind of preparations.
Just to realize what KIM OF PIE
wouId form if such piles of all coun'
ties in Tennessee, and whatsoever
what kind of a pile it is in all our
states together. .-,

porting mentally and financially.
God save those who gave the light

overlook or neglect the hygienic con-

right now and which fact we have to
abolish as soon as possible to prevent
sickness, moral and physical Gripping

WILL SEND RIoTOUS NEGRO
TROOPS TO THE PHILIPPINES

Members of the Twenty-fourth in
fantry are to be sent to Manila, P.
l., for duty there until the end of
the war. The company will be sent
there after the court martial of 1877
members for the outbreak at Hous-
ton, Tex, in which score of whites
and negroes were killed when the
negro troopers shot up the city.
The accused members of the ne
gro company face charges of murder
and rebellion. The maximum SEN
tence is death. 1t is understood that
members of another negro battalion,
not directly connected with the Hous-
ton outbreak, will be charged with
conspiracy and tried at the same
time. They are charged with defiant
action and open threats against their
officers.

GERARD SHOWS REAL
KAISER AND SCHEMES
100000 INTRIGUE STORY IN THE
GEORGIAN-AMERICAN. BLACK
BAG SECRETS" OF BERLIN

my Four Years in Germany" is
the title of a series of articles bv
former Ambassador to Germany
James w. Gerard, which began APP
pearing in The Atlanta Georgian
and American on Sunday, September
10th.
Mr.. Gerard takes the reader from
the very beginning and carries him
through maze of secret intriguing.
plotting and contemplating, ambi-
ton and treachery, which will amaze
the civilized world, and which forced
the United States into the war. He
not only tells exactly what the Kai-
ser said, but he reveals the secrets of
his now famous "Black Bag in a
manner to fascinate the reader, and
while holding his interest informs
and instructs him of the cause and
effect of diplomacy as it is practiced
by Germany.
Mr.. Gerard had personal interviews
with the Kaiser and many of the
Prussian chiefs, which gave him ex-
ceptional advantages to know and I'M
derstand the plans of the German
rulers and came into possession of
much information never intended for
him.
81 found the Emperor seated at a
green iron table under a large can
vas garden umbrella" writes Mr..
Gerard in relating his experience
when the Kaiser wrote the reply to
President Wilson which sounded the
fate of Belgium and sounded the
death knell of millions of innocent
men.
That damning Indictment of its i'm
perial author was never made pub
lic-it was too infammatory for the
neutral mind-until Mr.. Gerard de-
cided to publish it, with the consent
of President Wilson
The series of articles constitute
more than $4,000 words, and the
original manuscript was purchased at
cost of 100000 No work of fiction
contains more fascinating reading,
and it is doubtful if anything will
do more to solidify the movement
to destroy German aggression than
these articles by Mr.. Gerard
Schemes, plots and treachery in
high places-intrigues that were
never intended to reach the outside
world-are written of by Mr.. Gerard
most convincingly and reveal plans
which, if successful, would have re-
suited in world dominance by Ger
many. The spotlight of publicity is
thrown on many heretofore dark
pages of the worlds political history.
The Gerard articles started in
The Atlanta American last Sunday
and continues daily for about seven
weeks.

Zone of the most dangerous pests
of the cotton industry has been dis
covered within the past year in Mex
leo. This insect is considered by ex-
perts to be one of the five or six most
destructive insects in the world and
its introduction into North America
has caused no little concern. 1t is
now known to exist in many other
cotton producing countries, among
them Asia, Africa, Brazil and the
Hawaiian Islands, where it causes an
annual loss of from so to 80 per cent.
of the entire crop. The value of the
crop in this country is estimated by
experts at about billion and a half
dollars. 1t is very evident fact that
its Introduction into this country
would mean a marked dimunition, if
not total humiliation of the cotton
industry and other lines of work di-
rectly dependent on cotton. So it is
highly necessary that everyone who
grows cotton to be informed con-
corning this pest and its significance
to the future of the South.
"The insect, according to Mr..
Busck, of the United States depart
ment of agriculture, repeatedly re-
duces the yield of lint so per cent.
or more and also lessons the oil OBJ
tanned from the seeds. Any one can
at once see the menace to the cot
ton industry if this insect should be-
come established.
Everyone can lend some assist
ance in keeping this insect from OBJ
tanning a foothold in this country.
In the first place, keep a sharp watch
to detect the presence of the insect.
If the presence of the insect is
known, steps can Immediately be
taken to destroy it before it becomes
sufficiently abundant to be beyond
control.
''There are four stages in the life
history of this insect The mature
or adult stage is a small dark brown
moth which lays its eggs in the de-
pressions of the cotton boil which in
dictate its divisions at the apex. These
hatch into small white larvae which
tunnel into the boil under the egg
she'll Usually the larvae enters the
boil near the apex and tunnels down
through the walls of the boil to the
base, where it attacks one of the low
est seed. 1t eats a portion of this
and proceeds to the next seed above
and finally ends at the top of the boil
as a full grown larvae. The young
worm or larvae is nearly pure white,
and it is not until the larvae is al
most full grown that it assumes the
