The Rotary Club as a body was in
V1ted to attend the anniversary cele-
bration to be held at the home of Pres.
John H. Brown and wife, 719 N. Bar
celona, tonight at s o'clock, the invita-
ton was extended by the ladies of
Christ Church at the regular luncheon
held yesterday at the San Carlos hotel.
The celebration takes triple angle
in that the wedding of DR.. and Mrs.
Brown took place Fl years ago and DIR.
Brown was ordained as minister 81
years ago. Ten years ago this month
ha came to take charge of this parish
and has been carrying out his work
in this city since that time.
Resolutions of respect to the mem
Dry of c. F. Geek, former member of

the largest proportional, loss, dropping
less in this state was due to decreased
acreage and to the ravages of the boil
from 34,951 bales to 1877 bales. The
weevil. Oklahoma almost doubled the
production of 1918, increasing from
5S5, 149 bales to 1901, 1877 bales. Texas
also showed an increase of $50, 900
bales. ."
During the ten-month period ending
May 81, 1919, the production of linters
amounted to 605,871 bales. This is the
smallest, production of linters since
before the European war, which slim
ulated the demand for use in the man
ufacture of gun cotton and smokeless
powder and resulted, in a large in
crease in the cut of linters per ton of
seed. The cut per ton during the pres<
ent season averages a little over rs
pounds whereas in 1918 the mills were
required to cut about $50 pounds. AS
result the grade of linters being
produced is better than during the
war. '+' '.--S '-'+-.
The sea island crop of 1919 was
only 6,916 bales, which compares with
the 1916 crop of 1859 bales. The
practical abandonment of the growing
of ea-island cotton is due to the in
festation of the boil 'weevil through
out the entire sea island belt. e
While cotton is grown to a greater
or less extent in seventeen states, the
combined production of Georgia, Ok
lahoma, South Carolina and Texas, all
of which returned more than one mill
lion bales, was 7102,557 bales or 62.3
per cent of the total crop for theAyear.
Texas alone produced 2,96O,335 bales,
or 26 per cent; Georgia, 1,67S,75S bales,
or IA. per cent; South Carolina, l.
462. PIT bales. or. 1913 per cent; and
Oklahoma, 1,001,fS7 bales, or 8S per
cent. ..-'
! Only one county produced more than
100000 bales from the crop of 1919,
namely Bolivar, Mississippi, with 106,-
S98 bales.

LISHED.

New conditions under which lapsed
or Cancelled War Risk (Term) Insur-
ance may be reipstated. generous in
scope, and of vast Importance to mill
lions of former service men throughout
the country, are announced by Direc-
tor r. G. Cholmeley-Jones of the
Bureau of War Risk Insurance with
the approval of Secretary of the Treas
ury. D, F.. Houston.
The new ruling is officially design
ated as IT. D. 6fW. r.. effective July

insurance they wish to reinstate and
making their own statement of health
