Observer-
The effort to protect Texas from
the ravages of the cotton boll wee-
which threatens to destroy the
cotton crop of that state and to
sweep across the entire cotton belt
if not arrested, is accompanied by
many suggestions to stay the ad-
of the plague. Professor
Cook of the Agricultural Depart-
has brought from Guatemala
to a large number of
ants peculiar to the fauna of
Central America whose function and
pleasure it seems to be to attack and
destroy the weevil A corps of ex-
has at Vic-
Texas, where, under direction
of Dr. Cook, they will release the
carnivorous ants into cages covered
with mosquito netting inverted over
infected cotton plants. The result
of these experiments will determine
whether this lively exotic is an
effective antidote to the bane from
which Texas has for ten years been
a sufferer. Another hopeful remedy
is proposed in cotton
which grows to the hight of forty
or fifty feet, multiplies very rapidly,
is immune to the boll weevil and
will yield from twenty to twenty-
five pounds per tree, including seed.
If difficulty is found in gathering
the crop, the tree is easily dwarfed,
so as to bring the cotton within
reach. At an average yield of
y pounds of cotton per tree, the
yield would be sixteen bales to the
acre. The expense of planting is
no greater than that of corn, and it
is able to withstand droughts
eight months of the year. It
planted only once in twenty-five
years. This tree comes to us by
way of Mexico.

There is a deal of coyote hunting

predatory habits have made the

his howl has made him the
of the camper and the terror of

of skulking just within rifle range
has always made him a tantalizing
target for the man with the rifle.

all classes of men, however, the coy-

populated Colorado and several

bear, cougar and bobcat have felt
the same blighting influence, but the
coyote still figures in the sky line of
the average western picture. Some-
times he is unwise enough to eat of
poisoned carcasses of cattle, but this
is seldom. Again, he falls a victim
