Mrs. Julia Nelson Jackson died at
a Temple sanitarium on March 12, of
pneumonia. She was born in Lee
county 8th, 185!). At the age of 18
she was married to R. S. Jackson o?
Bastrop county Oct. 25, 1877 and mov-
ing to Williamson county, locating
near Taylor at which place they re-
sided 27 years. They also lived in
Bell county for a period of seven
years, but at the time of her death
resided in Milam county.
Mi-s. Jackson had been in failing
health for two years and had spent
the last few months in a sanitarium

but came as a great shock to the fami-
ly.

devoted Christian life. She is survi-
ved by her husband, six children, Mrs.
J. V. Winford and II. N. Jackson of

TO STAR! COTTON FLEA CON-
TROL MEASURES FOR GRANGER
The cotton flea or hopper caused an
enormous damage to the cotton crop
here last year and it seems that some-
thing should be done at Granger to
combat this insect as well as some
other insects and diseiuos of cotton
at Granger.
The places from which farmers may
get assistance in solving problems of
this nature are: (1) Uniteed Stales de-
partment of Agriculture, Washing-
ton, D. C.. (2) Agricultural Experi-
ment Station, College Station, Texas.
(3) Extension Service, College Sta-
tion, Texas. (4) Department of Agri-
culture, Austin, Texas. (5) Local
teacher of Vocational Agriculture.
(6) County agent. The cotton flea ts
a comparatively new cotton pest and
not much work has been accomplished
toward its control hut I feel thnt some
work done here at Granger may give
excellent results.
For this purpose, I am endeavoring
to get all farmers at Granger to meet
with me for a short series of meet-
ings to "swap" experiences and at-
tempt some practical method of con-
troling the cotton flea. If no other
benefit were derived from the series
of meetings than the rubbing of shoul-
ders with other farmers and learning
what they are doing, the time would
be profitably and well spent.
I am sending out circular letters
and trying to see as many people who
are interested as possible but if 1
should miss you be sure to come
right ahead to our meetings. We are
going to^meet Monday night, March
30 at the High School building at
7:30 p. ,m. and are expecting every
farmer who can possibly get off to
j be there. At this meeting plans will
i be started which will probably bring
many dollars in the fall to those tak-
ing part. Farmers of Granger, let's
get together and work together; for
i in this way only will we accomplish
| large things. Remember farmers
meeting Monday night at High School
| building.
