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.

Notification of the appointment as leader of the projected expedition came to Captain Webster just as he reached San Francigco on his twenty fifth journey around the world. Captain Webster earned his title in the Soudan with Lord Kitchener, Ie also served in the Boer war, . 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 cimrges preferred by former Govern- OmfHoke Smith, was recorded on the " pal of the senate, in accordance WE. a privilege prmitted under the TUEEe of that body, - @tual aid, benefit and industrial AHERnsurance companies are required, u & bill which passed the house, 1 jintain a reserve of $1.50 insolv ets for each SIOO of insurance carried by such corporations.

In any event At is* certain that the tax of 5 cents a gallon as passed by the house of representatives will bhe greatly re duced. ‘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 try of Georgia by co-operating In the work of eradicating the cattle tick, the house passed a measure giving added power to the commissioner of agriculture and the state veterinari ‘an appropriating $5,000 for the wo 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 with other states of public records, ' and to supply state institutions with | coples of the Revolutionary and Colo | nial Records, was passed by the | house, ! A strong effomt was made in the | senate to have the revolution propos | ing to ratify the income tax amend ; ment to the constitution of the Unit | ed States, made a special order for 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 | port of the committee o as to in { clude it in the order of business, It | 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 income tax, Georgia should get the | benefit of it, 1 The houre of representatives af [ firmed the tuspension of former Rail- Il'oad Commissioner MclLendon by the overwhelming vote of 129 to 40, The Isuspenslon of Mr. McLendon now istands affirmed under the law.
