 In Early Gardening

Greensboro, February 1.-(Special.)-- Some farm lands have been leased for the vocational men, in addition to the lands owned by the military academy. where they will be taught and also rrac- tice agriculture and gardening along modern methods.
 The school as yet has not been sup piled with much modern machinery by the federal board, but tractor which the men have been taught to handle has been delivered They have seen how this tractor does the work of many teams in about one-third the time Professor Bailey has charge of the practical gard ening and farming aud he intends to train the men as to the best methods of preparing the land. fertilizing, and cul- tivating.
 It is a well known fact, Professor Bailey states, that farmers do not pay the attention to their gardens that they deserve. The garden is apt to be the last thing planted and the last to re- ceive any cultivation Professor Bailey hopes to teach the men enough about practical gardening to enable them tc raise vegetables to supply the needs of the farm, and have surplus to sell. Various plots of ground will be divided into individual gardens, and it is ex- pected that enough friendly rivalry will be developed to make the men put forth their best efforts to learn and practice the most approved methods of modren gardening

considerable areas of West and
Northwest Texas, section free
from boil weevil, have given new
life to the plant, and revived hopes
for a top crop. Elsewhere, except
in Tennessee, where there is poor
to fair middle crop and a some
what uncertain prospect for top
crop, little besides a bottom crop is
to be expected, and that is impair
ed, to an extent which cannot yet
be ascertained, by boil weevil at
tacks. 49,.
Torrential rains destroyed con-
siderable cotton in Texas at about
the 10th of September, but the
damage was not extensive enough
to have an important bearing on
the size Of the crop of the belt as
whole. ....,..
The foregoing estimate is based
upon correspondence covering IN
detail 1872 counties and parishes en-
braced in 10 principal cotton grow
ing states and is general as to all
others.

Eminent Citizen

DR.. J. H. Anderson, dean of the
theological department at Hall
Moody Normal School, Martin, died
at his home there on Wednesday of
last week, after an illness of sever
al weeks of Bright's disease. He
was 70 years of age.
Nine years ago DR.. Anderson
came to Hall-MoOdy from Clinton
College. By his bright intellect, his
charming disposition and with love
for everyone, he grated himself
into the esteem and affections of
all with whom he came i1 contact.
He was pastor of the Baptist
church in Dresden several years
ago, being succeeded by Rev. Gard
ner. DR.. Anderson had many
friends here who deeply deplOre
his passing away. We remember to
have heard his very able discourse
here on the second coming of
Christ, 1t was a mastery effort,
showing an acquaintance with the
Bible that few men possess. 1t was
we'll delivered and convincing. At
his request, made some days prior
to his demise, funeral services were
conducted by Jas. T. Warren, presi-
dent of Hall-Moody, DR.. T. A. J.

The Commercial Appeals esti-
mate as of Aug. Is indicated a crop
of 1891, 900; the present estimate
therefore indicates a slump OF l.
.271 900 bales in the crop prospect
Various causes, but principally
boil weeyil and drouth, contributed
to the crop damage. Deterioration
during the month has been heaviest
in Oklahoma, South Carolina, Ar
kansas and North Carolina, in the
order named, northern sections OF
the belt, which heretofore had SUI
fered relatively little deterioration
while boil weevil were in greater
numbers and more active south
ward; southern sections of the belt
suffered relatively less deterlora-
ton during the month, because de-
,terioration had already been severe
and had nearly run its course. De-
terioration, insofar as possibility OF
furtehr boil weevil damage is con-
cerned. now seems to be definitely
at an end.
Weather conditions throughout
the entire belt have been favorable
for picking except that high tenn
peratures made picking a hardship,
especially so in rank cotton.
