New York. Nov. 26.-Therc was n

mand. This made for substantial gains
pretty we'll along the whole line. with

As matter of fact the buoyancy of the

partial cancellation Of the early gains.
The earlier rebound suggested frantic
coverings of an ovcrStayed short inter.

buying power to carry the forward

6. Spray the plants with molasses
mixture containing calcium arscnate.
In connection with the fifth sugges-
tion-about picking up and burning
the squares-let me emphasize that
unless this is thoroughly and fre-
quently done little benefit can come
from it. Unfortunately it is difficult
to make the average colored tenant
farmer, or white farmer for that mat
ter appreciate the necessity of abso-
lutte thoroughness in this matter. Mr..
Coker had men in the fields to follow
up these tenants and share-croppers
in order to see that the work was
thoroughly done.
One more point: Owing to the ad-
ditional expense in growing cotton
and the fact that under very unfavor-
abl weather conditions the weevil will
thrive despite preventive measures,
and owing to the further fact that
the farmer must not depend entirely
upon cotton as money crop, it is not
advisable to have over seven to nine
acres Of cotton to the plow. To meet
boil weevil conditions successfully we
must have . diversified agriculture
with food-proff crops because Of inef-
ficient and ignorant labor. Such crops
as soy beans, peanuts and tobacco
should be grown, and emphasis should
be placed on the production of pork
by use of forage crops; also dairy
