on the fact that- the cotton fields ol
Mississippi are )et white with list year's

rather novel force ol cotton pic ken
used by a Mttsisiippi planter. Oj one
occasion an itinerant showman m.ted
that country with a lot of trained moo
kejs which he taught to da trkks.
Among those who saw the monkey
was a cotton planter and the idea sug
gested itself i t him that the vuonkejt
might be utilized in picking cotton.
He got some and tried the plan with
such success that he n w hat 390 roon
keys picking cotton on his faros and a
lot of others are being shipped to be
used for the same purpose.
Mr. French mis a tick that will
bold about 35 pounds of cotton is fost

quantity of water each day is demand

known as water drinkers have on the

There are many people who have' such
a horror of growing stout that they
never drink a drop of water except that
which goes into their coffee, teas and
soups, and many of them carry it so
far as to give up these so as to avoid
using water. I have yet to see the man

drinking water, while I know" many
who have grown stout by avoiding it.

they cause and which is unnecessary

will be found that they drink a regular
supply of water every day in the year
