weather that we are having. I do not see how this section can make even a small crop of cotton.
 I find by talking to the majority of the farmers that they are not aware of the weevil conditions, as they tell me they have not seen them, but on qaes- tioning them find that they have not looked" and they will come back later with the information that they did look and found them.
 I think it well to call the attention of your readers to this condition and sound a note of warning, so that they can get the fallen squares, etc. Other wise their cotton crop will be eaten up. Cotton planted on March 22 with intensive cultivation such as mine has had should be blooming freely by this time. Last year the same cotton planted at same time was blooming by June g. Yours truly,

BETTER FITTED FOR WORK
Testimony Shows That Service in the
Army Has Made the Average Man
More Efficient.

Evidence that returned soldiers, par
ticularly those who saw service over
seas, are going back into civil pursuits
more efficient and better fitted for
their work is furnished by one of the
largest employers Of labor in the coun-
try, a firm which has requested that
its name be not disclosed.
OF more than six hundred returned
soldiers who have been employed by
this corporation 43 per cent have
proved more efficient than they were
before their military experience: IS
per cent are pu Aown as just about
the same as before in efficiency and
the remaining per cent are rated as
having less efficiency.
According to the letter giving these
figures: THE analysis indicates that
the men are more orderly IN their
routine work, more punctual, and a
few who were rather difficult to handle
are now amenable to discipline"

MAMMOTH CAVE LONG FAMOUS
Has Been Acknowledged One Of the
Worlds Wonders, Practically
Since the Year 1909.

The most famous cavern In America
is Mammoth cave, in Kentucky, writes
"Niksah" In the Chicago Daily News.
Mammoth cave was an old Indian ref
uge, and the story OF redskin adven-
lures Is written plain In the skeletons,
tomahawks and reed torches that have
been found In the cavern depths.
Then, In 1909, a white man. a pioneer
hunter, followed wounded bear Into
the mouth Of the great cave, and from
that time on Mammoth cave became
in American estimation the eighth
wonder Of the world.
Almost as soon as the white man
discovered the cavern he began to
make practical use of II. Long before
the era of Indian possession bats had
inhabited the cavern halls and In the
course of time their skeletons had &C.
cumulated on the floor. especially
near the entrance. These skeletons,
containing nitrate, played an impor-
tant part In the war Of 1872, for
nitrate, so needed for making explo-
sives, was scarce in the colonies and
the Mammoth cave became the main
source Of supply.
When the country settled down to
a period Of comfortable prosperity
Mammoth cave became, even more
than 1t Is today, a great show place
of America. The caves history is told
In the names of the various rooms and
galleries. Jenny Lind and other artists
visited the cave and sang or played
the airs that had made them famous
In "Ole Bulls Concert Hall" or other
cavern corridors. In a room since
named Booths Amphitheater," Edwin
Booth was inspired to declaim some
of the lines Of Hamlet before a small
and select audience.
