Administering liquid food or Inedi rine to persons lying on their backs n bed is difficult, even for q trained nurse. A novel hospital drinking glass avercomes this difficulty, says Popular Mechanics Magazine. The lower DOT fion of the vessel is similar in shape 70 an ordinary tumbler.

CROP PROSPECTS ARE GOOD
Recent Rains Improve Corn and To.
bacco.-Weevil Injuring Cotton.

Salters Depot, May 23.-Rains were
quite general throughout this section
the past week and were very benz
fetal to the growing crops. Some
farmers have their crops in excellent
condition, and they ere growing nice
ly; others have been a little careless
about their work and have some
grass in their crops. Corn is doing
fine and with favorable seasons will
yield fine crop. There is one thing
very noticeable this year, that is the
general use of cotton seed as fertiliz-
crs. 1t has been many years since
your correspondent has seen hands
in the fields dropping cotton seed to
the corn.
Tobacco is growing well, is well
worked and will make a good crop,
with good seasons.
The outlook for cotton is very poor,
your correspondent has just been in
formed that the boil weevils have al
ready made their appearance in large
numbers in the cotton fields through
out this section, eating the bud ard
killing the plants, some times as many
as four or five, one after another,
thus breaking the stands badly.
