from an agricultural point of view.
All parts of the cotton belt have re
ceived an abundance of moisture, even
the most droughty portions of Ti

the cotton crop situation in Texas
has improved materially, in the sen
tral part or the belt, particularly in
the Mississippi valley, there has been
some complaint of too - much rain,
Boll weevils are also complained of
in that section, the rains having made
the conditions favorable for an in
crease of the pest. It -js". admitted,
however, that the boll weevil is no
where as numerous this year as was
the ease in the two previous seasons.
Ia the eastern belt the weather has
bees generally- favorable, and even
the air areas in t be Carolina nas

in the astern belt, particularly in
Alabama And Georgia, is reported to

Q&EAT "AZSON TEUST" EXISTS.
Is the Charts Made by Illinois State
Fire Marshal
Ch'.cSv-o, July 20.- That there ex
ists a gigantic, country-wide arson
trust, with headquarters in Kansas
City, and in nearly all the Urge cities,
the members of whieh make a busi
ness of setting fire to buildings to
enable the owners to collect large
sums of insurance, was the eharge
made yesterday by C. J. Doyle, State
Fire 'Marshal, in an address before
the Chicago Association of Com
merce. - V
"The eountrV is facing one of the
most gigantic organized arson con
spiracies the world hss ever known,"
said -Mr. Doyle. "The State Fire
Marshal Department of Illinois has
united with the State Fire Marshals
of Kentucky, Tennessee and Ohio to
wipe out the band of fifteen men at
the head of this arson conspiracy.
The head of the fire-bug trust is in
Kansas City, from which city the
operations of the entire gang is di
rected, roe tenacies or tnis octopus
have extended as the daring of those
behind the plot has grown, into a
dozen or more cities. They have, been
found at work at Bloomington,
Springfield, (I1L), Pittsburg, Cleve
land, New York, Buffalo, St. Louis,
Chicago and elsewhere. Two of the
gang . have been convicted and are
now imprisoned in a Southern eity.
"The fire-bug nroblem is one or the
most important which confronts the
country. . Even without the cases of
arson, the fire losses of the country
are appalling, amounting to about
$500 a minute. In Chicago the loss is
$5,000,000 a year, while in Berlin the
annual loss does not exceed $200,000.
Wj should adopt the fire protection
plans of European cities." -

10 DAYS MOTHER-IN-LAW LIMIT,
Magistrate Rules That is Long
Enough For Visits.
Magistrate McGuire. in the Flat-
bush Court, N. Y., has fixed 10 days
as the limit for visits for mothers-in-
law.
The case in point was that in which
young Mrs. May Coyle, of 34 Carlton
avenue, Flatbush. had summoned her
mother-in-law, also Mrs. May Coyle,
a resident of Boxton, to court on a
charge of disturbiiii; her domestic-
peace and happiness.
Marry Coyle, son of Mrs. Mav
Coyle, of Boston, sat in the read of
the courtroom and never opened his
mouth. His pretty young wile did all
he talking and painted her mother-
in-law as a killjoy and Czarina.
"She came down from Boston 10
days ago," said the younger Mrs.
Coyle, "and took charge of every
thing, fcvery time 1 opened my mouth
she squelched me. I didn 't know how
to cook; I didn t know how to wash:
I didn't know how to do this, that
or the other thing. She broke all
our rules and made new ones, she
told us how they did things in Boston
and that that was the only right way.
rinally, she turned mv husband
against me and I had to take myself
and baby home to mother. I tele
phoned her to go home but she re
fused."
"Ten davs is long enough for any
mother-in-law to hold possession," re
plied the Court. "Ten days should be
the limit for all mothers-in-law."
