Dunn and Antoine Bflles. The discussion developed the fact that cotton was being made sad would continue to be made In the In feted distriets of Texas In spite of the weevil. It was also dedelhtly s tabisbhed that the propagation aad ravages of the weevil could largely be checked and the Insect virtually ex terminated by cultural methods and the use of Parts green. While the danger from the weevil wis shown to be largely exaggerated over the whole country the great destruction that can be wrought by the lttle pest was fully recoglsed, and every means was urged to be employsd to check sad prevent ts progess. Cona gress was asked to make appropria. thins for this purposeeaad mtany Im portant resolutlons andeseoemeda tios were pads. of wbhich en give thoe we resgard as most Important, vie: 'That we heartily ap ve the methods already emplo as being both serntlte and pe ad that weemphasise the Ideas of thorough preparation of the cotton lad, a re duction of acrepa the rotation of crops, and Intelsive cultivation with most rigorous eflorts to secure early maturing cotton for al the boll wee vil districts." "That it is the sense of thiseonven. tion that the use of Paris green Is. in the opainion of many, vet usedl, and we recommend the coatnaaes. of the use of poisons when advisable." "That the result of the experiiee of all the scientists and practical farmers In the boll weevil arpa up to the present time Is that cotton can be made even under boll weevil nfae tation if the fanners are properly or guaald." pwsi tolon Immnewri.

"It coses mch to pnt on poor paint as good"-a common sayig and true-it costs much more to put on poor pst; more gallons. Poor paint Is paint and barpte or paint and sand or paint and lime or paint and chalk or paint and beastin or paint and water;, these are the usual cheats; there are others. It takes more gallons of plant-sad a-chat than o' honest paint; and the cost of the labor of painting is so msch a gallon-one gallon coste as muheb as aother, for labor. This Is the way to reckon your coats for this year; but bow about next year? Palat Devoe, and next year ensat nothung year after next the same; the same for everal years. Paint anything else, and your costs recur aceording to what you paat wtith. Some of the mixtures wear o ye ar; some two; soen three.
