Conflicting Crop
Conditions Are
Being Reported

Dallas, July Widely divergent
opinions as to the condition Of the
Texas cotton crop have been issued
by cotton authorities during the past
week.
Tonight the Texas Industrial Con-
gress IN an exclusive statement to
the United Press declared that the
cotton crop shows progressive deter
ioration during the past thirty days
"and that the outlook is discouraging
for a normal yield.
In direct contrast 90 this statement
S. Shima, President Of the Southern
products company on Wednesday, IN
an interview with the United Press,
declared that the crop conditions
were excellent and that hot dry
weather for the next two weeks
would insure a better crop than last
year.
The statement Of the Texas Indus
trial Congress. said in part:
THE condition Of the Texas cot
ton crop shows progressive detoria-
ton during the past thirty days, ac-
cording TO reports received by the
Texas Industrial Congress.
Continued rains have caused the
plant TO grow rank and sappy. 1t is
not fruiting well and is shedding.
Wet weather has also interferred
with cultivation and grass and weeds
have gotten a good start.
"This coupled with the fact that
the crop is from three to four weeks
late. makes the outlook discouiaging
for a normal yield.
Reports of boil weevil infestation
are general.
In some places they are very bad.
particularly Central and North Tex
as. In the East and Southeast Texas
the crop condition Is poor.
"The acreage has been reduced
from -, $4,000 acres in 1920, to
/ 9,IeO, 900 on June %. according 20
, Government reports
THE ravages of the boil wecvil
will probably further reduce the acre
age by abandonment and present
prospects indicate n yield Of approxi-
mately 100000 bales.
From four 20 six weeks Of hot.
dry weather would materially ssG-
prove the outlook"

Experiment Station
Made An Interest
ing Corn Test

Variety tests with corn during a
seven year period at the Angleton
Experiment Station are described in
Bulletin No. 276 Of the Texas Agri-
cultural Experiment Station, A. q
NJ. College. The bulletin is just from
the press and is for free distribution
10 those requesting 1t.
Eight varieties Of more than fifty
tested, made a showing deserving at
tention. OF these, Fentress Straw
berry led with an average yield OF
1888 bushels. Hastings Prolific,
Yellow Dent. Thomas, Chisholm, Sur
cropper, Virginia White Dent and
Tuxpan followed closely in order
named. Besides being good yieiders,
Fentress Strawberry, Thomas and
Tuxpan proved to be desirable types
Of corn for the Gulf Coastal plains
Of Texas. Some Of the other, good
Welding varieties occasionally have
a poor quality Of grain due TO short
shuck or tendency to rot.
Variety Date tests conducted Tor
three years confirmed the variety
tests and showed in every instance
that the early planting about the first
of March or as soon as weather con-
ditions will permit, are better than
paintings made either two or -four
weeks later. These tests are also des.
cribed in Bulletin 276 and the rain
fall records since 1914 are given.

Associations of Audubon Societies. He
said that according to the last anthem
tic information he had from Alaska,
the territory had paid bOunties on
over $4,000 eagles.
"When / first discovered this law"
said Mr. Pearson, 81 at once began a
campaign to try to get the bounty law
repealed. 1t is my contention that the
killing Of these birds should be
stopped until the eagle can have it's
day in court. The late Governor Riggs,
1 am informed, expressed himself as
feeling that the time had perhaps
come when the bounty might be taken
off the eagle, but SO far as I am
aware nothing has as yet been DONE"

Ralph Herr and Comedy.

D ALPH HERR, who is appearing in
Blossom Time" states that he
has acted seriously. actor-managed
semi-seriously and managed disas-
trously, and. what is still more as
tonishing, prepared for anything but
comedy by a highbrow course of the
most indigestible studies at Cam
bridge University.
1T was many years before l was
able to live down my university prep
aration for life" says Mr.. Herr. Il
began by playing a role with Cyril
Maude. in The School for Scandal by
which 1 do not wish to cast any as
pensions on my alma mater. That was
in 1900. My success went to my head.
with subsequent consequences to my
pocketbook. For, l thought, with the
experience I had, / was quite capable
of producing plays myself. However.
l showed more discretion in choosing
plays than l did in choosing a part
ner. Just as the proceeds of 'Divor-
cons which was the first venture,
had become such as to insure me
peace with my creditors. my part
ner departed with the proceeds, with
the result that / again looked the
lootilSHtS ia the ldSe ihSeedo VI AZ
the back.
Back to acting again. I came to
America with Mrs. Pat Campbell in
Aunt Jennie The Joy of Living and
The Second Mrs. Tanqueray.' In fact
just as straight drama was about to
claim me for its own. 1 got mixed
up in comedy role with Miss Dolly
Dollars and made such a hit that
was unable thereagter to secure any
thing but comedy roles.
AFTER a period of bitter disillusion
by finding myself a comedian instead
of an exponent of the serious drama,
1 recovered my vanity by finding my
self a success in a series of comedies.
Among these were The Tourists
The White Hen.' Mile. Modiste.
Lola From Berlin The Soul Kiss
Madame Sherry DR.. De Luke The
Charity Gira,' The Whirl of the
World a Pair Of Skies and Hands
Up
Really. I think I have played in
enough comedy roles to quite cover
up my past as serious actor, and as
far as the stage IS concerned / firmly
believe in upIift by lifting people out
of their seats with laughter"
