Mrs. Katherine v. Plndar, seventy-five,
widow Of DR.. John Pindar, for many
years city physician Of Hoboken, died

LITTLE WEEVIL DAMAGE.
Fields Around Tupelo Show Opening

Tupelo-According to reports from
many of the farmers in this territory,
the damage done by the boil Weeyn
has been very light up to the present
time, 1t is an indisputable fact that
all cotton fields are filled with white
bolls every morning, and this is not
the case when weeyils are present IN
large numbers. Some few are com
planning of damage, but this is an ex
ception. Just why the weevil are not
present in large numbers cannot be
accounted for after a summer ana
spring of excessive rains, unless me
late freeze this spring caught many
of them out of the winter quarters.
Many farmers here advocate late
nlowing of cotton to keep 1t IN grow
ing condition and thus keep 1t pro-
ducing new forms. The weevil VIII
not attack the bolls as long as they
are able to find sunicient number
of new squares to puncture. When
the squares quit forming they heE
attack the small bolls and later the
mature bolls.

There apparently is no objection

the adjustment of the system. 1t is
said that the death of Tabert and
the publicity caused thereby have
brought victory to those who favor
the abolishment of the system. The

Our citizcnhip, l am sure, appre-
ciates the added beauty and value
that comes from luxuriant growth
of trees, shrubbery and flowers, the
utility of the garden, and the value
of an increased interest in the birds
and OTHER native wild life.
Nature has been lavish in the
gifts bestowed upon our state, and
we are so rich in the beauty and
variety of the birds, grains, grasses
and flowers that may be found on
our prairies, that we have much for
which to be thankful, but unfortun-
ately trees and shrubbery of beauty
and utility are largely lacking. They
must be planted and cared for by
willing hands and loving hearts to
give us the pleasure which comes
from having the vast eXpanses of
our prairies dotted and broken by
the beautiful green of the clumps
and .undulating lines of trees and
shrubs.
Much has been done along this
line already but it is very desirable
that the men and women of today,
and especially the youth about to
become the men and women of to-
morrow, shall emulate the example
of the pioneers and become inter-
ested in the planting of trees, shrub
berry and gardens. and in the protec-
ton and care Of our native wild
life Of every character.

the plow. There ARE four basic
principles that all should know
about plows: Quality, Lightness of
Draft, Strength and Durability, Ease
of Handling.
Study Needs
He mentioned that while the COM
pany had not actually been engag-
ed in handling plows as many years
as some, there had been opportun-
ity to become familiar. with the
needs and wants of the farmers
through organisation. They have
been able to study all makes and
designs of plows. "When we finally
went into the plow business we
picked line which We believe mea-
sured up to our ideals of the plOw
best suited to meet all conditions" !"
He also spoke of the part the
culti-packcr takes in the prepara-
tion of the seed bed. He stated
that there is no tool used on the
farm which plays larger part or
is more indispensable, with excep-
tion of the plow For years the
farmers have felt the need Of tool
