OREGON CITY COURIER, FRIDAY, JULY 15. 1904 6rDeaIth E 222 South Peoria St., Chicago, III., Oct. 7, 1902. Eight months ago I was to ill ' that I was compelled to lie or sit down nearly all the time. My etomach was so weak and npset that I could keep nothing on it and I vomited frequently. I could oot urinate without great pain and I coughed so much that my throat ana lungs were raw and sore. The doctors pro nounced it Bright's disease and others said it was consumption. It mattered little to me what they called it and I had no de sire to lire. ' A ister visited me from St. Louis and asked me if I hac" t tried Wine of Cardui. I tola I had not and she bought a h Me. I believe that it saved my 1. I believe many women could save much suffer ing if they but knew of its value. Don't you want freedom from pain? Take Wine of Cardui and make one supreme effort to be well. You do not need to be a weak, helpless sufferer. You can caw a woman s health and dot woman 's work in life. Why not secure a bottle of Wine of Cardui from your druggist to day? Washington Letter. (From Our Regular Correspondent ) A committee of Texas planters is here wrnestly inquiring what they shall do to be saved Irom the terrible boll weevil w..icU teems b 'nt un the destruction of their great utate. During the last ten years it has destroyed a vast are? of iotton in Texas, having advaocKi- from Matamuras In 1804 northeastward to the Red Kiver and the Sabine. The sugges tion of ProleBsor Riley eight iears ago that a broad belt be established along the Rio Grande in which the cotton plant should be prohibited was not adopted and the destructive pest has ad vanced about fiity miles a vear ever since. Secretary Wilson of the Depart ment of Agriculture now calls on the planters of Louisiana and Mississippi to prohibit the growth of cotton within 50 miles of the Missishippi river. This remedy should not lie impossible to realize any more than the burning o( buildings to prevent the spread of fire, because the growth of rice as a substi tute for food has made immense pro gress in both Texas and Louisiana, and because variety copping bas been found very profitable wherever adopted. Dr. 0. F. Cook, of the Agricultural Department arrived in New Orleans from Guatemala on Tuesday bringing with him eight.vnlne beer bottles full of the mvsterious ants which kill the boil weevil and protect the cotton in Central America. Some anxious Texan has ap plied for a writ of injunction to prevent the introduction of these ants to Texas, holding Ihxt the antidote would &e worse than the bate. Your correspondent this morning called on Professor Galloway, Chief of the Bureau of Plant industry of the De partment, and Doctor U.J. Webber ol the Labratory of Plant breeding, and they said "This anxious Texan is off his base. This ant winch uook lounu in Guatemala is not a vegetarian, It is in lectivorouB, and seems to prey only on thiB weevil. It will not eat any part ol the cotton plant. Cook found cotton growing there successfully in spite of the boll weevi. a ml thought he had dis eoverod a grade of cotton immune to i ' e depredations. After careful inspection, howevor, he found that these little ants protected the cotton by killing the wee vil. The ants are fond of the sweet liquid found in the nectarine of the cot tun plant. After the weevil getB in its work no nectar is forthcoming, Conse quently these police ants watch for the wi-evil and kill him by stinging him to death so that the plants wu bear their delicious food. "It is not intended," continued Dr. Galloway, "to release theBe ants upon the crop l Texas; we are merely going to experiment with them and see If they will do w hat we hope they will do. We shall take a coop, like that one yonder, open on all sides, snugly enclose it in mosquito netting, iuvert it over a boll weevil infested cotton plant, put three or four of the ants inside, a id see what happens. V e know some things and guess other things. We know that the boll weevil will eat nothing but the cot ton boll, and if he cannot get that food, he starves to death. We kno v that in Guatemala this ant will kill the weevil for reasons of his owu. Will he doit here under other conditions, and will he survive the Gulf States' winter? This we shall And out. Something radical must be done. If no preventive i found this weevil will advance to the Atlanti? leavins desolation in its path. Old weevils generally die as cold weather somes on, but they have provided for a continuance of their ipeciet iu the lar val, minal snd adult stages. 1 lie few that live till spring, breed to beat the band. One female will produce a pre eny of Ll.OOO.OOO in a season an un lucky number for cotton planters. If cotton hi planted very early it stands a good chance of getting out oi tne way before the weevils get in the way, and if every planter carefully cuts and burns nil ! old cotton plants and corn stalks, it will tremeuduously redm the dan ger by destroying places of hibernation." The Bureau of Agriculture has seventy Ave men in Texas investigating the rav ages of the boll weevil and trying to find a preventive. Kven if Dr. Cook's ants should fail, it is hoped that a cotton plant will be found that is distasteful to the weevil. He is an epicure and de mands the present boll, as far as is known, but by interbreeding and artifi cial selection, there have already been found cotton plants that are immune to certain diseases. The Bureau of Plane Industry and the Division of Entomo logy are working together at the agri cultural labratory established at Victor ia in Texas where a large force is en deavoring to solve this serious proolem along the lines of Darwin's evolution of Fpecies. A serious cotton disease in the Carol inas has been stayed by the gov ernment's interbreeding strains of sea island and upland cotton rhat have proved to be resistant to it. The aver age Doll weevil is about one-sixth of an inch long, and if he weresharded, would closely resemole in personal appearance the Cimex lectularious who, like the Guatemalan ant, is carnivorous, and does not hesitate to keep awake in any old thing that is called a bed, provided it is otherwise inhabited. Oregon Development League. A convention for the purpose of organ izing an Oregon Development League will be called to order promptly at 10 o'clock A. M. Tuesday, AugUBt 2, for two days' Bessioo, at the Marquam Grand Theatre, Portland, Oregon, under the auspices of the Portland Commercial Club, which will have for its purpose the development and upbuilding of the state of Oregon.

The Mayor of each and every city and town in the State, as well as the Couety Judge of each and every county, is urged to name ten delegates. The president or executive officer o' every commercial, industrial, agricul tural, horticultural, livestock, dairy, ir rigation, mining or other similar organ ization having for its purpose the devel opment of any industry is nrged to name ten delegates, and to add himself and secretary to the delegation, as active workers are especially desired. Iu order to secure the best results, every element of boom should be elimin ated. Exact reports as to what individ ual growers have accomplished aie what ia desired. Plain and direct statements are wajted giving actual results as to cultivation, growth and marketing of all agricultural products, fruit and livestock, accompanied by the name of the grower and location of the land generalities, no matter how delightfully put, are of little value. If you haven't n business organization in your community, or some other body through which vou can be represented, organize at once, and if your meeting is only large enough to select the delegates, name yourselves and come, for it la the willing workers who are to do most for Oregon. Be sure to bring vour wives, daughters. sisters and sweethearts, for while the men are busily engaged in the conven tion, the Woman's Club of Portland will loos after the comfort of the women of Oregon. The Oregon Water Power and Railwav Oompany have tendered the ue of four large cars for a trip to Canemah Park, beyond Oregon City one of the most de lightful trolley rides in America.

Immediately upon choosing delegates, please notify your It cal papers and send notice to the Portland Commercial Club. A program of brief but exnlicit speeches on various subjects will be ar ranged in advance, and .every possible etf rt will be made to bave this Conven tion result in bringing the Oregon people together and in forming plans which will result to the benefit of every portion of this great State. . Very Respectfully, Portland Commercial Clcb. Lodge Xight.
