OfficI Estimate Of Present Crop Issued By
The Department Of Agriculture
On Thursday.
A report issued from Washington
on Thursday by the department of
agriculture says that preliminary re
turns to the chief of the bureau of
statistics of the department of agri.
culture indicate that the actual
growth of cotton in the United
States in the year 1903-04 will
amount to 9,962,039 bales of an
average net weight of 490.8.
The area picked or to be picked,
is estimated at 28,014,86o acres, a
reduction of 892,495 acres or 3.09
per cent. from the average planted.
The total proportion of lint cotton
is estimated at 1,889,796,267 pounds
an average of 174 4 pounds per
acre. The estimated production by
States in pounds of lint cotton per
acre is as follows:
Virginia 180; North Carolina 21o;
South Carolina 178; Georgia 158;
Floridal,42;Alabama 161; Mississip
pi 211; Louisiana 223; Texas 143;
Arkansas 196; Teunessee 200; Mis
souri 232; Oklahoma 223; Indian
territory 231.
In addition to the reports of the
regular correspondents the bureau
of statistics has had the benefit of
an investigation of the effect of the
boll weevil upon the cotton crop of
1903, conducted under the direction
of the chief of the division of en
tomology. The results of this in
vestigation have been given due
weight in the present report and the
details will be published by the
division of entomology.
Through the courtesy of the of
ficials of the census bureau the de
partment also has had access to the
estimates made by the census agents
as to the amount of cotton remain
ing unginned. These estimates were
turned over to the department too
late to receive full consideration,
and they were therefore not used in
making the present estimate.

CURSE
OF
DRINK
RINK EVIL DRUNKENNESS
CUtED TO STAY CURED BY
HITE RIBBON REMEDY.
I annoutee to the world that I have
n absolute cure for drunkenness in
Vhite Ribbon Rernedy, based on thous
ids of cures made of the most obsti
ate cases. In a majority of cases
Vhite Ribbon Remedy was given sec
etly in tea, coffee or food, without the
atient's knowledge. By degrees the
atient gets a distaste for intoxicants
nd finally leaves off altogether. It is
ronderful. Many a hard drinker has
hus been reclaimed and restored to his
amily and friends. White Ribbon
temedy is easily given by following
he simple directions. It is tasteless,
dlorless, and perfectly safe to give or
Like.
White Ribbon Remedy will cure or
estroy the diseased appetite for all
lcoholic drinks, whether the patient is
confirmed inebriate, a "tippler," so
ial drinker or drunkard. Impossible
or any one to have an appet ite for al
oholic li<Iuors after using White Rib
on lemedy. It. restores a victiim to
ormal lh:th, giving him or hQr
toady nerves, and4 a determinetioll to
esist temptation. Bililds up the will
ower.

Woman's Christian Temperance Union.
Mrs. Anna Moore, Press Superin
endent of the Woman's Christian Tem

on Remedy on very obstinate drunk
rds, and the cures have been many. I
heerfully recommend and indorse
Vhite Ribbon Remedy, and advise any
voman to give it to any relative suffer
