Did you know that a city bred colt
will shy from a snake just as quickly
as will an old country bred horse.
It's instinct. It's born in 'em.
Even unto the lowly mosquito does
this sense of instinct extend
1t is quite noticeable that young
mosquito will avoid Sweet Dreams
just as surely as do the old fellows.
It's born in 'em.

AS rule there was too much rain.
There were several days when work
was carried on to great advantage,
but sunshine was insufficient prac-
tically throughout the week. Cotton
continues generally poor. the progress
during the week being unsatisfactory.
The wet weather favored weevil ac-
tivities. and complaints to that effect
were numerous. The crop shows the
i'll effects of excessive rains during
previous weeks as well as the unfavor-
able effect of the wet weather Of the
current week, especially on low lands.
The crop as a whole, however, con-
tinues fair to excellent. Sweet pota-
toes, peanuts, and cane were generally
favorably affected, except low lands
were too wet. Citrus fruits and ranges
are in excellent condition. Less rain
and more sunshine are needed through
