fear this was to be done.
He revealed that she would be
removed from her hotel rooms as

mitted, and placed in some high
apartment where she may have
southern exposure"
Since 1907 when the aged wom-
an withdrew her savings from the

COTTON BELT
PLANS CUT IN
1882 ACREAGE
Reduction of 40 Per Cent
Estimated for Next
Season.
BY FOSTER EATON
United Press stan Correspondent

Copyright 1881, BY United Press
/ ATLANTA, Oct. PA survey OF
the principal cotton producing states
of America today brought COM
posite estimate from official sources
of an approximate 40 per cent re-
! duction in production of that COM
modify next year.
Instead of 1924 900 bales, as esti-
mated for 1881, the 1882 crop will
be about $500, 900 bales if the vari-
Gus states live up to forecasts and
mandates of their legislatures.
The 1880 crop was 1892, 900 bales.
Reductions range all the way from
20 to SO per cent, except in Louisi-
ana and Tennessee. In the former,
Governor Huey P. Long indicates
his state probably would have a nor
NAL crop in 1882, while in Tennessee
authorities would hazard no guess.
Produce More Foodstuffs
The effect of this indicated
wholesale reduction of the South's
major agricultural pay crop" Off
Gals believe, will be to force farm
ers into the production of more
foodstuffS, truck produce, livestock
raising and dairying.
Among states which face reduc-
ton of cotton, Georgia will curtail
only about 20 per cent, according
to Eugene Talmadge, state agricul-
tural commissioner.
I'VE are telling our farmers to
raise all the foodstuffs they can
use, and all the cotton they can
without going into debt for it,
Talmadge told the United press.
The situation in the ten principal
cotton states, which are estimated
this year to raise 1860 of the
16,284,000 bales:
TexaS-Legislatiye restriction of
planting to 80 per cent of all lands
cultivated this year. j. E. Mcdonald,
commissioner, estimates q so per
cent reduction, or 2,550,000 bales in
1882 against 100000 estimated this
year.
No Action in Georgia
MissiSsippi-Leg reduction
of so per cent authorized, indicat-
ing, according to the state agricul-
tural commission, 100000 bales next
year instead of this years estimated
| 1,740,000 bales.
Georgia-No legislative action
Commissioner Eugene Talmadge es-
Inmates a reduction to about 1,000,-
900 bales instead of this years es-
timated 100000 bales.
Arkansas-The state department
Of agriculture estimates the 1882
crop will be so per cent under 1881.
Oklahoma-A cotton election"
sponsored by Governor Murray, is
pending, whereby he and H. B. Cor
dell, president of the board of argi-
culture, estimate the states produc-
ton will be cut from 1,195,000 bales
to about 100000 bales.
Commissions Storrs
expects a reduction of about 20 per
cent.
Sponsor Reduction
South arOllna-GOVernOr Black
wood is sponsoring a so per cent
reduction bill for the next legisla-
ture, to apply to 1892.
North Carolina-Governor Gard
ner's live at home" program
brought % per cent cotton reduc-
ton in two years, and comparative
reduction for next year is believed
assured.
Louisiana-Failure of the outlaw
plan. Governor Long believes, will
result in normal cotton crop for
Louisiana, or about 100000 bales in
1882.
Tennessee-The state bureau of
marketing indicates Tennessee's cot
ton production next year at about
100000 bales compared with $4,000

on the Seminary farm, owned
by the Oblate Fathers of st.
Francis De Sales, near Childs,
was destroyed by fire early
Wednesday morning last. The
house was occupied by the fam

covred. Most of the household
goods were saved. The loss is
placed at about $4,000.
