CAILLAUX DENIES TREASON. Said He Wanted to Protect France
 After the War

Paris. Feb. 25.-Joseph Caila ux former premier explaining his activi- ties in Italy on the resumption today of his trial before the senate sitting as a high court on the charge of having had reasonable dealings with the enemy, said he foresaw in 1916 the economic conditions that would prevail after the war. He declared he had sought an economi iC alliance with Italy. within the En- tente so that the interests of Italy and France should he safeguard ed at the peace conference. At no time M. Caillaux asserted. was there any question of politics or a peace of compromise.
 Theodore Lescouve the state prose cutor, read a letter from the Swiss minister of justice refusing to permit Chief of Police Wettiner of Geneva and another witness named De kouen to come to Paris to testify in the CaillauX case which the min- ister classified as political one. He added that he would allow the wit nesses to come if needed in a civil or criminal case.

Berlin Taxpayers Are Not Con- tented With Assessors Work.
MERCHANTS BUILDING FALLS
Weight of Snow and Ice on Roof of Frame Structure at Berlin Fair Up 15O CarSUnclaimed Letters.

"A reassessment of the towns prop erty will be asked if number of irate property owners have their way. It is claimed that the assessors did not act impa rtially when they did their work this year and for this reason complete reaSseSSment of the prop erty should be made, not by any local men but by experts whose business it is to assess property for various towns about the state, it is claimed. A prom inent Waterbury concern has been mentioned to do the work. The move ment, however. lacks concerted tion but if it is not accomplished this year there is little doubt but what it will gain ground and be put to a vote s@ the taxpayers. it's supporters claim.
 Never before in the history of the town has there been such d general hue and cry over the assessm ent which 1t is claimed by some is not fair as it does not affect every taxpayer equal iy. Some properties are doubled and some aim ost trebled. The assessm ent on the property of C. M. Jarvis is now under fire. Last year it was $45,OO0 ana this year SSS,000. He was as- sessed on POP acres of land last year and this year on 26S acres. He has disposed of some of his property dur ing the past year, but the figures of this year show that he has either bought more land or the assessors in he past did not assess on all property owned by him.
 \ When the taxpayers assem- be at the Ytown meeting, which is to be called within a. few weeks. there are all kinds of surprises in store. The tax rate which it has often been stated would reach 22 mills will never see that mark according to many of the disgruntled ones who will put forth a Is mill tax which they claim. will he carried The bud get. it is claim ed. does not necessarily have to be paid foE in its entirety this year and that Sorse of the amounts incorporated in the budget can be taken care of by bond issue, thereby assmilati ting the expense over a period of years. The argument being advanced is that the town will not have to face the expense in the next few years that it will have ko face this year.
 Every possible channel that is open for the removal of expense is being tried. One of the possibilities is the , cutting of the rate of pay for the collection Of taxes which is at pres ent $15 d thousand. It is claimed that more than s1,1O0 would be paid out for the collection of taxes this year if DO changes in the budget were made.
 This is nearly double the amount paid for the work last year. A 10 per cent. increase has been suggested, as it is claimed the amount of work tailed in the collection this year will

ARE YOU GOING
TO POISON THE
BOIL WEEV|L

II you are going to poison the boil
weevil' this year you should read the
following good advice sent out in cir
cular form by R. S. Wilson, Director
Mississippi Agricultural Extension
Department. The circular follows
Read carefully circular dated
March lst and issued by the Bureau
Of Entomology and follow instruc-
tions as, seem best adapted to your
conditions. If you have not this cir
cularg You can obtain it from The Del
ia Laboratory, Tallulah, La, or from
the Entomologist, Agricultural Col
lege, Miss.
Don't bite off more than you can
chew. One hand gun will seldom
handle more than five to eight acres
of cotton each season and cart dust
ing machine can hardly handle over a
hundred acres.
Find by experience what acreage
you can cover in three days with
your busting equipment and don't at
tempt any more than this. If you
cannot cover your acreage, select
those portions where you have your
best cotton and greatest weevil dam
age.
Remember that one acre of cotton
properly poisoned is vastly more pro-
fitable than ten acres improperly
poisoned.
Do not expect tenants to do salts
factory work without more or less di-
rect supervision. The operation is
too new to them to be taken up with
out intelligent instructions and sup
ervision.
Do not expect all weevils to dis
appear from your field after poison
ing. Remember that the cotton
plants can stand considerable weevil
puncturing without loss of crop and
that the sole idea of poisoning is to
keep the weevils below the point of
danger. ..#
Do not trust to guesswork to de-
termine the results you are securing
Leave portions of some cuts unpois-
oned throughout the season to serve
as check plats on your poisoned area
and to indicate the effect you are de-
irving from the poison.
Remember that you had crop fail
ures before the boil weevil arrived
and have also made good crops in
spite of the boil weevil. Poisoning
will not make cotton but at best will
only protect cotton from boil weevil
injury. Consequently, the size crop
you make is not a sure index to the
effect of the poison unless you have
q check plat for comparison.
If weevils are abundant enough to
be dangerous, don't stop poisoning
