BLACK RUST ON COTTON.
The State Department of Agriculture
haa since December let received nu
merous earn pies of diseased cotton bolls
showing blackened surface and in
many cases having the immature Hot
exposed and rotten. These diseased
bolle show the presence of the spores or
reproductive part of a parasitic fuDgus
colleto trichium goesipyum. The
fungus seems to be spreading in North
Carolina and already does very serious
damage. The estimated damage now
caused is about one-half the normal
y it Id ou the infected areas.
The spores or so-called seeds of the
fungus live over winter in the diseased
bolls and stalks of the preceding crop
usually left in the field. The Bpores
also undoubtedly live upon the seed
stored in barns and cotton gius. When
this seed h planted or when uninfected
seed is planted upon the infected soil
the fungus starts growth along with the
seed and grows up through the young
plants, eventually coming to the surface
of the stalks and forming black patches
on 8 talk and boll. Great damage is
done to the growing crop by the threads
of this fungus choking the sap vessels
of the leaf stalks, thereby causing the
leaves to fall cff. When young bolls
are seriously infected they Btop growth,
open and expose the immature lint,
which soon rots
The only practicable remedy for this
disease is to rotate crops so that cotton
will not come upon the same land of
tener than once in three years Seed
cotton should never be taken from the
piles at gin houses. The seed Bhould
always be carefully Belected from
healthy and prolific plants in the field.
Such selection, together with a proper
rotation, will prevent the Iobs now
caused by the disease and will at the
same time improve the strain and in
crease the yield of the crop. The use
of fungicidal sprays is not recom
mended. Gerald McCarthy, Biologist.
Substitute.
A young married woman, who was
passing the summer alone on account
of her husband having been summoned
to Europe on a business matter, had
caller one morning, says the Cincinnati
Enquirer, who asked if she were not
lonely without her husband.
"A little lonely," was the qualified
answer.
"But surely," said the visitor, "you
miss your husband very much, now he
is away?"
The young woman laughed.
"Oh. no," she said. "At breakfast
and at dinner I just stand his newspa-
up in front of his plaie, and half the
time I forget he isn't there."
Second Choice.
A story recently told by Thomas
Hunter, president of the New York
Normal College, seems to indicate that
once in a while a willing wife is spoiled
to make an unwilling teacher.
A pretty and agreeable young woman
who lived in a country village suddenly
announced that she was going to take up
teaching.
'You! You a school-teacher!" ex
claimed the recipient of her confidence.
"Why, I'd rather marry a widower
with nine children!"
"So would I," the young woman re
plied, frankly, "but where is the wid
ower? '
Startling .Tlortallt y.
Statistics show startling mortality
front appendicitis and peritonitis. To
prevent and cure these awful diseases
there is just one reliable remedy, Dr
King's New Life Pills. M. Flannery, of
14 Custom House Place, Chicago, says :
"They have no equal for Constipation
and Biliousness." 25c at all Drueeists

A 1 1 m
State" went into the Savoy Hotel a day
or two ago and asked for a room. They
were assigned to one on the top floor.
"Is that very high up?" asked the
bridegroom.
"It's on the top floor, but it's a fine"
the clerk began.
"Gimme something on the first floor
up," interrupted the bridegroom. "If
there should be a fire or anything I
want to git Nellie out. I had a hard
'nough time gittin' that woman to take
chances on losin' her this soon."
Cured of Lime Back After 16 Years
of Suffering.
"1 had been troubled with lame back
for fifteen years and I found a complete
recovery in the use of Chamberlain's
Pain Balm," says John G. Bisher, Gil-
lam, Ind. This liniment is also without
an equal for sprains and bruises. It is

IIIIIROER WILL OCT.
Falrbrother's Everything.
Of course there is the exception to all
the rules, but the proposition that mur
der will out comes about aa near being
true as any of the old saws twed by the
world. And it outs sometimes in the
most unexpected way. Probably the
strangest out was the other day in Cam
den, New Jersey, where a man named
Carl Zarbee went to the sheriff and sur
rendered to him, telling mm that be
wanted to be hanged. He said that he
had killed a man in Virginia named
Jeffreys, and he had Btood it long
enough. Inquiry elicited the fact that
Zarbee' s story was trueK and he will
be tried and perhaps hie wish will be
granted.
Of course there are several reasons
why the man surrendered but the
great reason seenu to be that if you im
brue your hands in the blood of a
brother you are apt to come into camp.
The many instances of jrecord prove
this statement and that U why the
world has accepted as truism the
statement that murder will out.

Charlotte Observer.
There is a distinct element of pathos
in the walking from under The Observ
er's roof-tree of some of the men who
turned their backs upon it Monday
afternoon. Some of them have been
with it for years; Bome were genuinely
attached to it and it to them. It has
striven to be just to them, and they
were secure and contented in their
positions. The most of them have fam
ilies, some own their homes here and
others are paying for homes. All of
them were making good money, were
treated considerately and were happy
in their work, but strangers, men
whom they have never seen and may
never tee, who have no interest in them
nor thought of their families had de
creed that, under certain circumstances
they should strike, and though there
was no reason why they should have
done so, though they were satisfied
with both their pay and their hours,
they obeyed went, did! the o former
friends, without one mi- ent's notice.
It is pitiful, but BU"h f periences are
ikely to fa'l into th-n of any me
who sign away their liberties.
Cargo ot Wild Animal Hade It Lively
for Crew,
New York, Sept. 29. A badly lace
rated crew arrived here to-day on the
steamer Indramayo, guarding a cargo
of wild animals from Chinese and Ja
panese ports. Six leopards and two big
snakes caused most oi the injuries
which were inflicted by the the animals
during an exciting voyage. Besideb
these animals the Indramayo started
out with an elephant, Bix monkeys of a
large and savage species, and some
smaller animals.
The leopards from teir cages suc
ceeded in lacerating the arms and legs
of si i sailors, who attempted to feed
them on the rolling, pitching ship. In
the Bed sea, one of the snakes, which
weighed 200 pounds and was 23 feet
long, escaped from his cage and crawled
out upon the deck about dawn. During
most of the forenoon the entire crew
fought and rolled about, the deck in a
struggle to get the snake back into his
cage, xhey naaiiy succeeaea.
Four days ago the t elephant died
from complications resulting from sea
sickness, and the animal's body was
thrown ovr rboard.
Good Reason.
Representative Adamson, of Georgia,
says that when he was judge of bis
county court a fellow was before him
charged, with having stolen a pair of
pantaloons they call them "britches"
in Georgia, There were Beveral wit
nesses, but the evidence was rather
meager, and the accused was acquitted.
He was told that he could go, but he
remained in his seat. His lawyer, to
whose successful defense he owed his
liberty, hinted to him that he was free
to depart, but he didn't budg.
"I don't want to go," said the
fellow.
"Let the witnesses go first."
"Why?"
"Why, sir, I've got on the 'britches'
I stole."

Atlanta Journal.
One C. W. McAra, who is president
f the Master Cotton Spinners' Associa
tion of Great Britain, says that eight
cents a pound is enough for cotton.
Not this year, Mr. McAra.
We respectfully submit that the pro
ducer is the proper person to say what
price he will take for his product.
An that just now, he is in a pretty
good condition to say it and make
what he says go.
Of course, it is something of a blow
to the English mills to be finally forced
to realize that the planter wants more
than five or six cents and is in a condi
tion to get it.
But then
We have ourselves to consider, as well
as the English spinners.
And if the English spinners can't
stand it, we Buggeat that they move
their mills over to this Bide of the
water, where the item of transportation
will not cost so much that they get
nearer the field.
Our southern spinners aronot k:ckiog
about the price of cotton.
The English spinners will have to
"come arjross" in one way or the other
either come across with a good price,
or come across the water, literally.

The British Museum authorities
have decided to make a collection of
; Sonographic records preserving the
voices of great living orators, aingers
and actors, and the instrumental ren
derings of famous musicians. The
master records will be of nickel, from
which molds will be taken. But for
the sake of posterity the records will be
very sparingly used during the lifetime
of those whose voices are recorded. A
similar undertaking is on foot in Italy.

trouble in the future, unices the diges
tive system iB strengthened.
It you cannot eat and digest three
e;ood, square and satisfying meals each
day without discomfort, your stomach
needs Mi-o-na tablets. They are not a
a mere temporary relief, but are com
posed of valuable medicinal agents
which strengthen the digestive organs,
and cure and prevent sto nach troubles.
When there are pains or distress after
eatine, head aches, belching of ga.6ee, a
sour taste in the mouth, dizziness, heart
burn, "pecks before the eyes, furred
tongue, sleeplessness, nervousness, or
back ache, the stomach needs the help
of Mi-o-na.
Every reader of The Timks should
grasp the opportunity offered by Gibson
Drug Store to try Mi-o-na at their risk.
Just one little tablet out of a 5 cents
box of this remedy before each meal
J
for a few days, and you will soon have
a strong stomach and perfect health.
Ask Gibson Drug Store to show you
