ABOUT COLLiNSvlLLE

Collinsville, July Special )--The drouth of several weeks standing was broken this week when several good rains fell and crops are beginning to look better, having put on new life. The farmers are wearing broad smiles when they talk of their corn and other grain crops, but the smile fades into oblivion when they talk Of their cotton crop, as the boil weevil has made his appearance in unmis- takeable terms of dollars and cents. The weevil is being found in abund- ance in every cotton field. and he is getting in his deadly work. As fast as the square appears it is punctured by this pest and falls to the ground. Happy will be the day when our farmers learn diversified farming and the weevil will not live in such splen- dor but will have to move to other parts.
