801 l Weevil Crosses
State Line Next Year
Atlanta, Nov. 26.—A year ago
last September the Macon Tele
grapl conducted its now famous
boll weevil campaign to acquaint
Georgia cotton growers with all
the known facts concerning that
ineradicable pest of King Cotton.
The prediction was then offer
ed, substantiated by State Ento
mologist Lee Worsham, who was
a member of the Telegraph party
and Pr. W. D. Hunter, of Dal
las, the government expert, and
the greatest living authority on
the weevil, that it would strike
southwestern Georgia two years
from that date, if che dispersion
continued at the normal area
annually. :
It is still the belief of Mr.
Worsham that the weevil will
eross the Alabama line and in
vade a few counties in the state
next year, unless unforeseen con
ditions stray its approach. This
invasion will be light, and may
not effect more than a half dozen
or even fewer counties, - but
it will mark the beginning of
Georgia’s great fight against it
From preliminary reports of the
government bureau in Dallas the
‘weevil is now aporoximately two
thirds of the way across southern
'Alabama.
Mr. Worsham is rreparing o
wage his campaign of prepara-}
tion with renewed vigor this win |
ter and next year. He began!
work last winter in the south
western counties by forming cot
ton clubs among the best farn.-
ers in many counties. These clubs
are working toward improved
varieties of cotton and early ma
turing kinds. It is a well estab
lished fact now that the grecatest
agency against the weevil and
the surest way to geta good yield
in spite of it is by growing cotton
that matures before the weevil
begins to get in his deadly work.
It is the fear that for a period
fiof years at any rate the weevil
[will completely knock out sea
island cotton in this state, hence
‘Mr. Worsham is concentrating
his energies now on getting a
long staple maturing early
enough to beat Mr. Weevil toit.

Washington, D. C., Nov. 26. -
It has just been discovered by
statisticians of the house that for
the first time in the history of
the lower branch of congress the
democrats of the north will out
number their party collegues of
the south. Never before has de
mocracy drawn its main strength
from north of the Mason and,
Dixon line, but as the investiga
tors figure it the party will have
in the coming house 152 northern
democrats and only 140 from the
south., In perty caucus, in case
of a split on sectional lines, this
‘would give the northerners a ma
jority of twelve. By reason of
longer service, the southerners
will control virtually “all of the
important committees and thus
practically wili be able to direct
the business of the house.
