FARM NOTES.
As soon as celery plants can be
handled from the seed bed, they
should be transplanted two or three
inches apart in a new bed, and have
the tap roots nipped. You will thus
get far stronger plants and easier to
make live in the final transplanting.
Cultivation of the soil is not merely
done to kill weeds, but it is a mois
ture conservator; it makes the soil
more porous, so that the plant roots
more easily penetrate in search of
plant food. In time of proiractsd
drought the cultivator should be
kept going whether there are weeds
or not. :
To keep moss from growing in
stock water tanks, cover the tanks or
shade them and the moss wui not
grow without sunshine.
The poultryman who is making a
profit from his poultry will no doubt
see the importance of making poultry
raising an industry which he is proud
of, and do all in his power to main
tain and advance all lines of poultry
raising. Poultry production in the
United States has become one of the
greatest industries in the world.
Cemmereial Poultry has discovered
a new way to lbreak up a sitting hen.
“Place a Teddy bear in her nest and
the hen will leave it never to return.”
There is nothing better than dry
earth to use on the dropping boards
under the roosts. Cover the boards
to the depth of an inch or two and
the droppings can be raked out as
often as necessary with a fine rake
made by driving nails through a piece
of wood ang attaching a handle.

THECROPHAS IMPROVED
Cotton Bolls Are Now Beginning
to Open.
MUCH “SPOTTED COTTON”
With Continued Drought the Crop Will
Be Ready for the Pickers in
Ten Days.
Memphis, Tenn.—The Commereial:
Appeal’'s weekly cotton summary
says:
Moderate showers fell over north
ern and eastern Texas on Saturday
and Sunday. No other rains of con-.
sequence fell during the week, and
the crop suffered severely. Central
and middle west Texas is exceedingly
dry, and it appears doubtful if rains
now could repair more than a part
of the loss that has been sustained.
Owing to the very dry, hot weather,
the plant is shedding, and the bolls
are beginning to open. With contin
ued drought, considerable cotton wiil
be ready for the pickers in ten days
or two weeks. In sections where rain
fell the crop was benefited, although
in some of the territory the precipita
tion was light and entirely insufficient |
Lo put a *“season” in the ground. Fair |
crops are promised in eastern and
western counties. The great central
belt has suffered most severely. ‘e
Out side of Texas the entire west-|
ern beli, with the exception of south
ern Louisiana, is in need of moisture,’
In Oklahoma, the progress of the|
crop has been arrested and rain is
imperative to prevent deterioration.
In Mississippi rains were scattered
and insufficient, a general rain be Ng
badly needed. In all states east 53““9
Mississippi the rainfall was ab‘aufl_
and with the exception of Nortl;;_.;
olina, where some excess fell, was:
beneficial. The crop in Alabama has
improved wonderfully, and in South
Carolina and Georgia promises well.’
Montgomery, Ala.—Based on 16«
ports from the cotton counties of,
Alabama, The Advertiser says:'”lt,
cotton crop in Alabama is in an un:
settled condition, from very good
very bad, all depending upon the
.amount of attention and cultivation
given it, and the amount of rainfall
received. Nevertheless, the crop, on
the whole, made some improvemen
during the past week, The waath
was generally favorable, but coms
plaints were heard from some 8§
tions towafigdthe last of the week tl
term “‘;%otted cotton” is embodied"
almost every report, and character:
izes the crop in almost every county.
Caterpillars are giving some trou
ble, but with this exception e¢otton
is free of insects. )
New Orleans, La.—Generally favor.
able reports as to the condition of
the cotton crop in Louisiana and Mis
sissippi have been received by The
Picayune from several hundred cor
respondents in these states.
In summarizing the conditions, it is
stated: The rapidly maturing cotton
crop in Louisiana and Mississippi en
joyed a favorable week. Complaints
of boll weevil continue to be received,
though the ravages of the pest have
been more or less dscounted, The
crop in Mississippi is holding its own,
with ‘the reduced acreage well culti
vated and the plant rapidly approach:
ing maturity, Some complaint is
made of the boll weevil in several of
the extreme western counties,
PHILIPPINE TOBACCO GUARANTEED.
Government . Will Inspect the Weed
as to Quality and Cleanliness,
Washington, D. C.—Purchasers of
Philippine tobacco will hereafter have
a government guarantee as to its
quality and cleanliness as a result of
an arrangement made by the bureau
of insular affairs, with the Philippine
government, designed to insure the
strict enforcement of the new tariff
bill providing for the admission into
the United States, free of duty, of a
limited quantity of cigars and tobacco
produced in the islands,
All tobacco factories in the archi
pelago are to be placed under the
strict observation of the islands in
regard to revenue bureau and health
department, so as to make certain
that the tobacco used is of native
growth, or if any of the foreign pro
ductions manufactured, that the quan
tity may be definitely ascertained.
The intervention of the health offi
cials is to assure the public that the
manufactured tobacco will be made in
sanitary factories by healthy opera
tives,
Every package of Philippine tobac
co or cigars imported into the United
States which has undergone the in
spection provided for, accordingly
will be labeled. Furthermore, the
Philippine government will attach to
each package of tobacco or cigars a
certificate indicating the quality of
the material used and the class of
workmanship,
IN SEARCH OF SOUTH POLE,
Captain Webster Starts for New
York to Prepare for Trip.
Los Angeles, Cal.—Captain Row
land' V. Webster, who was appointed
by the Royal Georgraphical Society
to lead an expedition in search of the
south pole, left here for New York,
when he will embark for London to
prepare for an Antarctic trip, which

News of the Legislature.
. The bill to curb the power of the
recorder of the police court of Ma
£on, intreduced by Hon. Joe Hill Hall
of Bibb was taken up and passed
by the house. In urging the neces
sity of his bill, Mr. Hall said the re
corder now had power to fine a mu
nicipal offender SSOO and to senlence
bhim to 90 days’ labor in the chain
gang. The bill Mmits the power of
the recorder to impose a sentence of
SIOO and two months’ imprisonment.
The sgenate by a vote of 29 to .
rassed the bill by Senator Rutherford
extending the right of eminent do
main to railroad companies with
Georgia charters for the purposes of
building spur tracks to industrial en
}otprlses, double-tracking their main
ines, taking out curves and kiuks and
erecting terminals,
. Signed by seventeen of the sena
tors who voted against the removal
from office of Chairman S. & Mec
'L&xdon of the railroad commission, a
protest against the action of the ma-
Jority of the senate both in removing
the commissioner and in refusing to
reeord on the journal the fact that
Stpator R, D, Callaway of the twenty
nifth; voted for removal upon the
Aflens bond deal and not upon the

OmfHoke Smith, was recorded on the

‘A strangely familiar echo of the
conviet inquisition of last summer,
when the legislature was cailed in
extra session by Governor Smith,
rang through the house of represen
tatives when the bill to provide addi
tional buildings at the state reform
atory and the state farm at Milledge
ville was under discussion. Condi
‘tiong were said to be in a most unsat
-lisfactory condition at the state fdrm,
where there was no possibility at
{ present of separating the races as
provided by law, or even the sexes,
if girls should be sent to the reform
atory, The crime of confining able
bodied convicts in the same quarters
with those afflicted with tuberculosis,
was also stressed by the advocates of
the bill introduced by Messrs, Vinson
of Baldwin and Lovejoy of Troup. The
measure was finally passed by a vote
of 100 to 37, amended so as to pro
vide for an appropriation of SB,OOO,
one-half of which was to be used for
building a negro reformatory and one
half for a tuberculosis hospital,
To encourage the live stock indus

The measure was introduced by the
‘Messrs, Reid of Putnam, who has
long advocated such a measure, and
Johnson of Bartow. After a brief de
bete the measure was passed by a
vote of 119 to 21.
A second assistant state librarian,
as provided for in a bill by Mr, Alex
ander of 'DeKalb to receive a salary
of $750 a year, was authorized by the
house, when it approved the bill by a
vote of 100 to 0,
A Dbill providing for the exchange

! A strong effomt was made in the

; ment to the constitution of the Unit

immediate consideration, Senator
‘ Perry of the thirty-third led the fight
for action upon the amendment, de
claring it to be his ambition to have
Georgia the first state to act. The
committee on rules refused to set it
| down as a special order, and the sen
ate voted against amending the re

| became quite apparent that there iy
a strong sentiment in the genate
against ratification of the amendment,
this sentiment being =supposedly on
the ground that if there is to be any
