some one, or several persons, at

circulars, etc., to the farmers and
others interested in high price cot-
ton, to send them one or more del-
1 iars 1 by mail,
to be express or telegraph,
used in buying cotton. That
all the money received by the “Ten
Cent Cotton Co." (the name of the
fakes) will be used in buying cot-
ton, and they expect so much money
to come in in this way that they
will force cotton up to ten cents a
pound and the donors will get their
money back by ^ selling cotton at to

STABLES,
Neal, the great cotton statistician,
says there will be one million five
hundred thousand bales of cotton
raised this year.
I It is now proposed by members
; of the Georgia legislature to enact
a law prohibiting foot-ball in the
state. We think this a wise prop¬
osition, but we will be agreeably-
surprised should it be done.
The county commissions at their
session last Tuesday passed an or¬
der increasing their bond of
the tax receiver and tax collector to
$ 20,000 each to take effect imme¬
diately.
The common people—the toiling
masses—lost a great and good lead¬
er and nature a nobleman when
the ungel of death cut asunder the
small thread which held life in the
animate form of Henry George,
the late candidate for mayor of
Greater New York.
Wonder if Richard Croker, the
great Boss of Tammany did not
feel that he was vindicated by the
hand of providence in the sudden
removal from the mayoralty contest
of Greater New York his arch
enemy Henry George last Satur¬
day? We are of the opinion that
providence fights shy of Croker.
Van Wyck, the democratic can¬
didate, was elected mayor of Great¬
er New York last Tuesday. It
seems Bryanism and free silver are
neither dead, as Van Wyck voted
for Bryan, and Parker who carried
the state of New York forjudge of
Appeals was also a strong and en¬
thusiastic Bryan man.
We are afraid that Nevins’ bill,
authorizinga constitutional conven¬
tion will not go through the legis¬
lature, for the reason that it does
not allow the members of the con¬
vention any per diem. The mem¬
bers of the Georgia legislature are
opposed to any kind of office or ap¬
pointment which does not carry a
lucrative salary with it—the more
salary the more they like it.
We see by the papers that Bob
Hamby of Rabun is making him¬

SAYS HIS BILL WILL PASS.
It Provides for a Constitutional
Convention.
“Speaking of a constitutional
convention,” said Representative
James B. Nevin, of Floyd county,
yesterday, “I have a bill now pend¬
ing before the Legislature, intro¬
duced last session, calling a con¬
vention for the purpose of revising
the constitution. On account of
the numerous elections I was not
able to get action last year, but I
intend to push the matter this ses¬
sion and I am satisfied from the
number of letters and the great
amount of encouragement that I
have received during recess, that
the bill will surely pass the House.
“Since the introduction of the
bill by myself, I have received some
valuable suggestions and have pend¬
ing several amendments that will
change the bill considerably from
what my original ideas were.
“My bill provides for an election,
to take place in February, 1 S 9 S, at
which time the people will vote
for or against the proposed conven¬
tion. Delegates will be voted for
at the same time. If a majority of
the people vote for a convention,
then the Governor is required to
call the convention in April, to as¬
semble in Atlanta. If a majority
of the people vote against a con¬
vention, then the Governor shall
order that the delegates do not as
semble. Delegates are to be elect¬
ed in the same manner as members
of the General Assembly are elected
and are to serve without pay. * n
In reference to the ratio of rep-
resentation, Mr. Nevin said :
“This phase of the question is
one that I have studied carefully
and conscientiously. It was my
first idea to apportion the delegates
according to population strictly,
but advice has caused me to change
that to some extent, in that my bill
provides for representation accord¬
ing to the representation of each
county in the House of Represent¬
atives. Two delegates to each re¬
presentative is my idea, and in this
way each count)- will be entitled
to at least two delegates, thus in¬
suring all the small counties a just
voice m the proceedings.
“Of course, the constitution adop
ed by this convention will be sub¬
mitted to the people for ratification
or rejection. As to the necessitv
of this measure I am convinced,
ind I believe that, tlie people of
Georgia will agree with me if given
a chance to vote upon it. It is a
pet measure of mine and a desire
for a fair and impartial hearing in
committee prompted me to let the
measure go over from last session to
this.
“The people of Georgia are ready
for this question, as they are always
ready for anything in the line of
progressiveness.”

REPLIES TO ALL SORTS OF QUERIES
Some Facts and Figures Regarding; Egyp¬
tian Cotton—-Where t » Got a Full De¬
scription of the Apj;o irance and Habits
of tile Colorado Fotato Heetle — Remedy
For Hint 00 Roses—Wealth of Dixie.
Question.— Please give me in detail
some of the principal sources of wealth
of the south as at present utilized, aud
why is it, if there is so much wealth as
we are led to believe, that the country
is not more prosperous ?
A ns aver. —The greatest income of the
south is derived from cotton aud its
products, grain and its products, rice,
sugar, tobacco, fruit, vegetables and
the products of the pine tree. The
south has also its stock farms, its maa-
facturing, mining, merchandising,
building, transportation and other in¬
terests—bringing into the country about
11,800,000,0000 annually. One principal
reason that the south receives so little
benefit from the vast wealth is that she
spends it with almost absolute unre¬
straint on other sections of our own
country, and to fill the coffers of for¬
eign nations. With perhaps a few un¬
important exceptions, the south is abso¬
lutely dependent on the outside world
for all of the following articles, in which
she invests each year with lavish prodi¬
gality: Paints, oils, drugs, buggies,
harness clocks, watches, china, glass,
cutlery, carpets, curtains, stoves, woolen
aud cotton goods, buttons, needles,
thread, soaps, perfumes aud other toilet
articles, gloves, dress goods, all kiuds of
agricultural implements, chains, nails,
clothing, furniture for our houses, build¬
ing materials for our railroads and
transportation lines, for our water¬
works, for our engines, boilers, electric
appiiauces, for the equipment of our
schools aud colleges, and for even the
very commonest sheds that are on
our farms. We pay millions. of
dollars to outsiders for tlje books
which we read and for those which our
children study. Lite and fire insurance
companies take millions of dollars out
i of the south each year. Saddest of all,
the farmers pay out many additional
millions for supplies, which they could
| just as well raise at home, Thus the
south, which is the most highly favored
eectiou of the Uniou in natural re-
sources and iu opportunities for acquir¬
ing wealth, pays tribute to the north
and west aud to every foreign country.
Her cotton crop has built up colossal
fortunes at the north. Her lumber
trade has established foreign companies
on a firm basis; the earnings from her
immense deposits of iron aud her mar¬
ble and minerals have gone to swell the
profits of aliens. Of all these immense
interests, which act as a continual drain
on our hard earned income, scarcely 1
per cent is located within our own bor-
ders. Nearly all are outside and are
flourishing and fattening on the life
blood, which is drawn from our arter-
ies of trade and commerce. The an-
swer to the latter clause of your que 3 -
tion stated succinctly is this: As long as
the south pays out each year for needed
articles more than she receives for her
products, she will be prostrate under
the feet of money lenders and sharpers,
She must learn to handle her own crops,
run her own banks and manufacture
everything needed within her borders,
She must work at home and “board”
there. This is a very simple lesson in
domestic economy, but it has taken us
over a century to master even its rudi-
ments. These have now been learned
and the south is being gradually eman-
cipated. The day of her fall deliver-
auce is not very far off. She has every
requisite for independence; climate and
8 °d for beautiful crops; ^ry raw materials
for mailufactare3 of description.

spray the bashes and the ground about
them with a solution of copper sulphate
or other fungicide, and in the spring,
after the leaves are open, spvav with

Tlie Rice Weevil.
Question. —In answer 10 a question a
month or two since, you said that wee¬
vils were wingless. Now, I send you
some specimens that you will find are
lively flyers, and they seem to be the in¬
sects that damage my corn aud other
grains. Please tell me why you said
they were wingless.
Answer.—T he weevil that was meu-
tioued m a previous answer was called
the “granary weevil,” as you will ob¬
serve by reading the article again.
They are wingless, but at the same time
they are very injurious to stored grain.
The winged insects that you sent are
called the rice weevil (calandra oryza).
They resemble the granary weevil very
much in appearance, aud are very de¬
structive to all stored grain, and in this
state do an immense amount of dam¬
age.
Another pest, the “Angoumois graiu
moth,” commonly called “fly weevil,”
does great damage, particularly to corn,
be tore it is housed, frequently ruining
whole ears, and rendering it unfit for
food for man or beast. But for these
weevil pests, our corn could be kept
from year to year, as is now the case in
more northern latitudes. The use of
bisulfide of carbon will destroy all these
insects, as I have frequently mentioned,
in answers to questions, and every
farmer who raises corn, particularly in
the southern portion of the state, should
use it. It is a moderate estimate to
- . that ., , .. would ,, add
maim its use lo percent .
to the value of the corn iu every crib
south of Griffia, and save many farmers
from buying, who are now driven to tnat
necessity on account of the losses caused
by weevils and rats.—State Agricult¬
ural Department.
15|*yptl»[i Cotton.
Question. —Is there any need for un¬
easiness all as to Egyptian cotton? Is not
this agitation about its interfering
with our long staple cotton gotten up
for political effect?
Answer.—T he cotton trade of Egypt
is increasing very rapidly. The number
of pounds has nearly doubled since
1879—the first year in which we had
official reports. In 1879 Egypt exported
270,060,813 pounds. The official report
for 1895 is the latest, and gives the
amount as 521,427,463 pounds. The
price has fallen steadily from 1495 cents
in 1879 to 8.97 cents in 1895. Our first
direct importation of Egyptian cotton
was in 1884, and its use here has in-
creased very rapidly. In 1896 we im-
ported directly from Egypt 43,574,760
pounds. This amouut, added to that
which was received through English
channels, increased the total to about
50,000,000 pounds, or about 100,000 bales
American cotton. In view of these
facts our growers of Sea Island cotton
have felt much uneasiness. The presi-
dent of the New York Cotton Ex-
change, Hon. Gnstavus O. Hopkins,
6 avs that Egyptian cotton certainly
does compete with our Sea Island or
long staple cotton. Georgia raises two-
thirds of this latter crop, and we are of
course directly interested in any move-
meut which tends either to increase or
depress the price.—State Agricultural
Department.

Rust In Wheat.
Question.—I s there any way to pre-
vent rust in wheat? There seems to be
two kinds of rust; one attacks the
blades, the other the stalks, and the
latter does much the most damage.
Answer. —You are mistaken as to
their being two kinds of rust that at¬
tack wheat. The same rust attacks the
blades and stalks indiscriminately. As
a rule the blades are first attacked,
j either from their greater ” susceptibility-
because the status .. have not . made
or _ „
tlieir appearance, when , the „„„„„„ spores, or __
, af the fungus ,, produces , rust,
seeds tnat .
first settle upon the plaut. Hot, wet
weather is most conducive to the devel¬
opment of this fuugus, and some varie¬
ties of wheat are more easily affected
than others. Weak plants are more
liable to attack than those of vigorous
growth, hence the importance of plant¬
ing the best seed. There has been no
remedy discovered for this disease,
when once it makes its appearance on
the wheat. We can, however, use pre¬
ventive means by a careful selection
of seed, and so treating it before
planting as in some measure to
guard against this disease. The sim¬
plest treatment, aud one that gives as
good results as any, is to soak the seed
wheat two or three hours in a solu¬
tion mane of four ounces of sulphate of
copper (bluestone) to a gallon of water.
Stir the wheat occasionally aud skim
I off all the light and defective seed that
ris 9 to the top. It is claimed by some
that a free use of salt as a fertilizer
will prevent rust, but this has not been
demonstrated. The rust of course does
most damage when it attacks the stalks,
.
^ then the grain is directly injured.
If r° u wiU S8lect T our seed from wheat
that ful1 ? matured and ri P ened ia the
field - eiltire! y free from rust - and wiU
then treat it as described, you will stand
a fair chauca of escaping rust, though
frequently appears after every pains

Agricultural Department.
Diseased Quinces.
Question. —Why is it that we so
rarely see a perfect quince these days?
I remember that in my youth this was
considered one of our most certain
1 fruits and the rows of quince trees in
my mother - s gardeu laden with the
heavy yellow fruit is still a pleasant
memory.
Answer.— Quinces, like many other
of our fruit trees, have been sadly neg¬
lected, and the insidious advances of
disoases have beeu scarcely noticed, un¬
til they have obtained such a firm foot¬
hold as to be very difficult of eradica-
cation. There are four diseases to which
the quince is liable: The Leaf Blight
and Fruit Spot, the Quince Rust, the
Black Rot aud the Twig Blight. The
first attacks the fruit as well as foliage,
and young quince trees in the nursery-
are peculiarly liable to it. The remedy
is spraying with Bordeaux mixture.
The rust attacks the fruit, and unless
the disease is checked, the young
quinces will be distorted and misshapen
long before they mature. The fungus
of this disease is communicated from
the “cedar apples” aud “cedar balls”
so often seen on cedar trees, and if these
trees grow near a quince orchard they
should be destroyed. Spraying with
fungicides may also be used with ad¬
vantage.
The Black Rust is more safely pre¬
vented by clean culture than by fungi¬
cides, because the disease usually ap¬
pears when the fruit is reaching ma¬
turity, and the application of fungi¬
cides might be attended with danger.
All rotting or mummified fruit should
be destroyed, and after tne crop is gath¬
ered late sprayings of ammoniacal solu¬
tion of copper carbonate will be bene¬
ficial.
The Twig Blight very much resem¬
bles the Pear Blight. The branches turn
black, and should be cut off and burned
at once.—State Agricultural Depart¬
