THE BOLL WEEVIL MENACE
Thist ntuch-dreaded and abominable
peat ia in our midst and has apread
across Georgia In particular with a
surprising degree of rapidity. Hundreds
of farmers will have to face the menace
which it brings to them for the first
time in 1217, and it will not be Inappro
priate to suggest the pursuit of a meth
od of farm practice which is best cal
culated to enable them to meet its at
tack with the highest degree of efficien
cy. Now is the time to make plans for
next year, and on the skill with which
thias, is done will depend • the success
attending tne farmer's effort in 1917.
Therefore, a very caieful and detailed
*i>lan-of operation should now be thought
out and the preliminary work with ref
erence to (tarrying it into effect ac
complished with the utmost dispatch, it
will be fatal to wait until next spring
to pitch the crops and arrange and de
vise what to plant. The suggestions
offered below will apply with equal
force not only to the plantation which
has been infested for one or two sea
sons, but to the one which has recently
been invaded as well.
The first thing to do is to learn to
live as completely at home as possible,
which means that a variety of food
stuffs adapted to the nutrition of man
and beast must be provided. It is not
a difficult thing to do this in a climate
where the growing season varies from
200 to 3AO days in length and where an
almost endless variety of crops can be
;rown, and from two to three; crops
raised on the same land in a single sea
son. It will be good policy to make a
plan of the farm and divide It off into
(uitable areas. The farmer should not
abandon the cultivation of cotton alto
gether, but he should limit the area
planted because under bad weevil in
estation he will not be able to produce
probably more than one-third to two
hirds of a normal crop. The present
high price of cotton will make it ex
ceedingly difficult for the farmer to be
lieve this suggestion worth while, but
if he will inquire into the situation and
profit by the experience of his neigh
bors In states which the weevil has
infested for several years, he will find
JtM the advice given is correct in every
particular. •
When the plan of the farm operations
is being laid down, arrangements should
be made to establish a rotation of crops
so that cotton will not be brought on
the same land year after year, and so
that the right proportion of roughage,
grain, fruit and vegetables may be pro- 1
vided for the family and the live stock.
There are many directions in which the
farmer maj-, branch out and reimburse
himself for a part of the loss incurred
through the curtailment of the area de
voted to cotton. It has been the cus
tom on the part of most farmers to
grow cotton and buy their supplies
elsewhere. If the supplies are produced
at home, he can get along equally well
and live better with half the income
from cotton than he haa previously en
joyed. A good garden on every farm
may be worth several hundred dollars
to the owner and he may live off the
very fat of the land. Farmers do not
realize how impossible It is to secure
good vegetables in ths average town and
city, nor do they realize the high prices
which the consumer has to pay for what
he may have in abundance and with
comparatively little effort in the open
country.
The fruit plantation should be pruned
and sprayed and looked after and it
can often be extended to advantage.
Certainly, every farmer can raise a good
deal more poultry than is now being
produced. This is particularly true of
the states bordering on the gulf and
Xtlantlc coast where poultry husbandry
seems to have been a comparatively neg
lected industry if we consider the
amount of poultry which is shipped into
Georgia from other states. There is no
farmer so poor that he can not extend
his food supplies and his income, there
fore, through emphasizing poultry rais
ing. The high price of meat and the
strong upward tendency now evidenced
due to the demand abroad as a result
of the destruction of the animal life
of Europe means that poultry products
will bring even better prices than those
prevailing at the present time.
• The farmer who diversifies will not
be damaged by the weevil because the
weevil attacks only cotton and leaves
other farm crops alone. Therefore, if
he grows what the weevil will not eat,
he can live, feed and care for his live
stock and have a surplus of various
farm crops to sell which are tn good
, demand and which at present are fre
quently shipped Into the south by rea
son of the over-concentration on cotton
production which has characterized our
agriculture in the past. That there is
a chance to specialize in diversification
need hardly be pointed out since the
south ie adapted to the growth of such
a great variety of grain, forage, fruits

and vegetables, some or all of which
are always In demand at remunerative
prices not only at home but in other
sections of the United States.
Tn any plan which is adopted em
phasis should be laid on the growth of
staple crops for when this is done the
farmer is taking no risk as there is an
established market for such crops and
they are always in good demand. Many
economies may be practiced through a
rotation as well. For instance, the soil
may be built up rather than depleted
In fertllftv through allowing legumes
to predomlnstß In the rotations. Th<
amount ot meat needed for home con
sumption can be greatly minimized if
legumes of the right varieties are
grown and utilized for. food to the ex
tent which science has now shown to
be desirable. Legumes may be made
to supply protein which we have here
tofore secured almost exclusively from
meat at a much lower cost than
through meat.
Some of the ways in which the
needed supplies of protein may be se
cured are through cowpeas, lima beans,
snap beans and soy beans. Similarly,
balanced rations may be provided for the
live stock on the farm, and certainly,
all the roughage needed can be grown.
No farmer can consider that he is mak
ing a success of his operations who is
guilty of buying meat or grain unless
under exceptional conditions. Os course,
this statement would not apply in its
entirety to the men who are engaged in
dairying or beef or hog production
on a large scale, but it certainly does
apply to the average farmer in a sec
tion of the country where -land now so
abundant and comparatively cheap.
By following out a varied line of hus
bandry the farmer will also find his
time and that of any laborers he may
have available more uniformly employed
than would otherwise be the case. Many
of the crops which can be grown to ad
vantage will not require clean cultiva
tion and the labor entailed in their pro
duction will be less than that which
must be bestowed upon cotton. Hence, if
he cuts down the area of cotton to
a proper degree, he will be able to con
centrate enough time and effort on its
selection and cultivation to raise a fair
crop even under boll weevil Infestation.
This article is simply based on com
mon sense and on the experience and
observation of those who have tnet and
overcome the boll weevil Invasion with
a fair degree of success. As in the
case of any other pest or plague which
has befallen mankind, there are ways
of meeting the injury which the wee
vil will inflict with a high degree of
success. To do this one must study
the habits of the weevil and be prepared
to combat these with the utmost vigor.
He must also study and Institute new
methods of practice, which make him
in so far as possible independent of
weevil damage. When this is done there
is no reason why the farmer or his
family should not enjoy a high meas
ure of prosperity, be supplied with all
the food they need, and have a reason
able surplus to reimburse them for
their labor and to purchase the necessi
ties and the luxuries which go to make
up the sum total of human happiness.

FIGHTING THE NEMATODE WORM.
11. T. U., Macon, Ga., writes: I am
great-ly troubled with nematodes In my gar
den. Which crops and plains are most sub
ject to tills pest? What can be done to
correct thig trouble?
Crops which are very often troubled
With namatodes worms are the tomato,
cabbage and oollard, beans, peas, lettuce
and such flowers as carnation, pinks,
snap dragons and heliatrope. Other
garden crops are not ao likely to be at
tacked by this pest. About all one can
do of course is to use crops which are
most resistant to this insect pest. Un
der green house conditions this trouble
is overcome by sterilizing the soul before
it is put in the beds. One could of
course do this under field conditions if
the expense were not (prohibitive. In a
small garden it might be practical and
even profitable. When sterilization is
undertaken it is accomplished by distrib
uting steam pipes under the soil at a
depth of 12 to 18 inches. The pipes
should be perforated with 1-16 incn
holes every two Inches. The sterilizing
should be continued until the soil is
heated up sufficiently to bake a pototato
buried threrein.

HANDLING OLD ACID PHOSPHATE.
VV. F. H.. Cohutta, Ga., writes: I have
on hand wne acid phosphate which was
purchased last June. It haa been kept dry
but the Itaga burst and left tha fertilizer
exposed to the air. Would 1 be as safe
in using this as new fertilizer of the same
kind?
There Is no reason why yxra should not
use the acid phosphate Which you have
stored since last June. We frequently
have some left over and always use it in
the autumn under winter crops. In our
experience It has proven quite profitable
to use as much as 200 pounds of 16 per
cent acid under winter oats and we
would not object to using more If it
could be purchased at a fair price.
There is only one thing which is like
ly to have happened to your acid phos
phate. It is possible that a part of It
has reverted Into a form not so quick
ly available as It was last spring. This
is more likely to occur if there wax any
free acid in the material last spring. We
prefer to mix acid phosphate with the
soil and put It down at the same time
we plant our oats and other winter ce
reals. Os course we use a grain drill.
PLANTING WHEAT IN SOUTH
GEORGIA.
J. R. M., Baconton, tia. writes: Ploaiw*
advise me the best varfrty of wheat to
plant in thia section, when to plant, how
much aced per acre and what fertilizer to
use. What is the best way to treat oat
seed to avoid sinut? How does the polled
Hereford comoire with the horned Here
ford? Is the polled Durham a dual-pur
pose animal and how doe« it compare with
the Shorthorn?
Among the best varieties of wheat to
•dant under Georgia conditions are Blue
<tem, Georgia Red and the Fulcaster.
These varieties made an average of ap
nroximately twenty-five bushels pet
icre as a result of six years' test. This
eads to the belief that they are wel)
dapted for our soil and climatic con
'itions. It Is important that you securr
r ood seed of well selected strains of
hese varieties as there appear to be
arious grades of seed on the marke;
tnd some have certainly not been se
ected with care.
Tn planting wheat It la best to pre
pare a good seed bed even If this callr
or a considerable outlay In effort. I
s not essential, of course, that th
and be plowed, though this is goo<
'ractice. Harrowing and cultlvatio:
hould be continued until a fine sub
oil is attained. It will be good prac
les to use some nitrogen and phos
phorus on this land. Two hundred
pounds of acid phosphate and 100
pounds of cotton seed meal cun be used
;o advantage at this season of the
year. Top dressing with yard manure
during tlie winter is also an advantage
or in lieu of that you may use a little
nitrate of soda, say 50 pounds per acre
put on early in February.
Smut in oats may be destroyed by
treating with formalin, a 40 per cent
solution of formaioenyde. Dissolve 1
pound of formalin in 50 gallons of
water. Put the oats in sacks and im
merse in the formalin solution for thir
ty minutes. Then spread out and dry
before seeding.
The Polled Hereford is, of course, a
selection of the Horned Hereford. The
jiicd Hereford association is young
yet and, of course, will require time in
which to establish itself. No doubt
there are some very good Polled Here
ford cattle to be had. They naturally
have the advantage which any hornless
bfeed has over a horned breed. The
Polled Durham is a selection of the
Shorthorn. It is as much a dual pur
pose animal as the Shorthorn. The
Shorthorns probably excell some of the
beef breeds in this respect. This is
certainly true of some strains of the
Shorthqrns. Either one of these breeds
is well adapted to Georgia conditions
and you will not make a mistake in se
lecting a good individual of either
breed. Probably one will cost about
as much as another. It is important,
of course, that you buy only from Va
riable parties.
TVHEN AND HOW TO APPLY
GROUND LIMESTONE.
C. D. T., Corington, Ga., writes: I would
like for you to advise uie regarding the ap
plication of limestone for agricultural pur
poses.
We have been testing the virtues of
ground limestone for several years past,
not only on the college farm here at
Athens, but on some twenty-seven test
areas located in various parts of the
state of Georgia. We have applied
ground limestone in various quantities
and under various crops. A summary
of our experience would indicate ’.hat
this material can be applied to advan
tage on soils where legumes are grown.
In other words, it seems best to use
ground limestone under legumes rather
than cereal crops. In a few instances
we have had a profitable increase where
lime was applied to land where cereals
were grown, but taking our experience
as a whole the best results have fol
lowed its application to soils seeded to
legumes. For such crops as cowpeas,
soy beans and peanuts a ton per acre
would be considered a liberal applica
tion. It would probably not be neces
sary to use lime on land devoted to
these crops oftener than once in three
years. In the case of some extremely
acid soils it might be advisable to ap
ply lime oftener and even in larger
quantities. Under alfalfa we think at
least four tons should be applied, two
tons being applied before cowpeas are
sown as a preparatory crop to put the
(and in shape and two tons after the
cowpeas have been turned under. We
think at least two tons should be broad
casted over alfalfa at least every second
or third year and harrowed in.
The ground rock, as you probably
know, has only one-half the sweetening
lower of the caustic or builders’ lime.
Therefore, we advocate the use of one
ton of ground rock where 1,000 pounds
of caustic lime has been considered a
satisfactory application.
We think it is Important to use
ground lime rock in association with
peanuts, a crop, the area of which is
now being rapidly extended in Georgia
and which promises to be of value in
this section of the state infested by
he boll weevil, first as a source from,
which to obtain oil and meal and second
is a grazing crop for hogs.
A DESCRIPTION OF COLLEGE NO. I
COTTON.
G. M., Nieholla, G«., writes: Plesse give
me any information you may have concern
ing college No. 1 cotton. I would like to
know t|je alxe of the holl, percentage of
lint, and how It compares with King's
extra early as to earllnoss.
Sixty bolls of College Ttfo. 1 cotton
will make a pound of seed cotton. In
some instances it only requires fifty
eight bolls. You will see therefore
that it is a large boiled variety. We
have made no selections from plants
which showed less than 35 per cent of
lint. The per cent in so far as this va
riety has been tested out yet runs from
35 up to 37 or 38, and in a few instances
it may have gone higher. As to earli
ness, it is better in this respect than
any variety with which we are acquaint
ed. It has been selected and developed
with this end in view. We would re
gard it as a more satisfactory variety
than King's extra early, because this
strain sets on a number of bolls earlier
in the season and then stops growing.
On the other hand. College No. 1 con
tinues to fruit for several months.
Hence, there are new bolls developed
upon which the weevils feed as they
develop later in the season, thus leav
ing the early set bolls to mature a
crop of cotton. There is only a very
limited amount of College No. 1 avail
able. We have only been developing
this variety for two years and at best
you could not hope to secure more than
a small amount of seed.
We believe that in your section of
the state, Covington’s Toole and some
well selected strains of Cleveland Tri
umph and Simpkins and other early
maturing varieties would be found the
most satisfactory.

GERMANS EATING
BREAKFAST WHEN
BRITISH CHARGED
Assault in the Ancre Valley |
Came Without Warning and
Teutons Were Astonished
When British Appeared
(Copyright, 1916, by the Associated
Press.)
WITH THE BRITISH ARMIES IN
| FRANCE, Nov. 13.—(Via London, Nov.
' 14.) —The Germans were apparently
completely surprised by this morning’s
attack in the valley of the Ancre. An
evidence of this wag found in th® fact
1 that the garrison of the trenches around
Beaumont Hamel were preparing for
breakfast at the very moment when the
British infantry stormed the position.
The British, after partially clearing the
underground galleries and rounding up
700 prisoners proceeded to eat their pris
oners’ breakfast, telling the captives
they would be fed when they arrived
within the British lines.
A total of nearly 4,000 prisoners has
so far been sent to the cages, including
a regimental commander who was cap
tured in a dugout with a major, an ad
jutant and a number of other officers.
The majority of the prisoners are Siles*
ians and„ according to the British offi
cers, very inferior fighting material.
The’ German higher command depended
apparently on the supposedly impregna
ble character of the old front line and
its strongly fortified villages rather than
on the stamina of the troops. The Brit
ish officers believe the Germans with
drew their best men for service else
where on the British front where the
new and shallower positions to which
the defenders have been forced demand
greater resisting power on the part of
the Infantry.
The British losses were unusually
light owing largely to the unexpectedly
feeble character of the German machine
gun fire at Beaumont Hamel and St.
Pierre Divion. Large numbers of Ger
man dead were found strewn tn the
wrecked trenches of the original main
line. This line consisted of four paral- i
lai roads of trenches, the last being flush
with the western face of Beaumont
Hamel.
DANGER NOT REALIZED.
For some days past the sector attack
ed today and the area behind have been
subjected to successive bombardments
which rose to a record pitch yesterday
and resulted in the demolition of a large
part of the defenses. The garrison ac
cepted the morning’s deluge of shells as
part of the usual dally program and did
not fully realize their danger until the
British infantry was seen approaching
in the darkness.
The British advance north of Beau
mont Hamel was held up on a front
about 1,000 yards west of Serre. The
first detachment captured some German
trenches and passed eastward toward
the village. Suddenly hidden machine
guns and infantry snipers scattered irt
great profusion in the craters and other
shelter, began firing in the backs of the
attacking troops and necessitated their
withdrawal. North of Serre the British
gained ground but, owing to the failure
of the advance immediately south, the
position is subjected to an enfilading
fire from higher ground in the neigh
borhood of the village.
A number of isolated pockets are be
ing cleared of Germans in the interven
ing ground between Beaumont Hamel
and Beaucourt-Sur-Ancre. The British
are firmly established on the western
outskirts of the latter hamlet. The re
maining fragments of the old German
line Immediately south of the Ancre
which were “pinched out” by the Brit
ish flank pivoting to the northeast
around the elbow of the stream bad been
partially Isolated since the capture of
Schwaben redoubt. Three hundred Ger-1
mans, the only survivors of the bom
bardment, were captured in this exten-1
sive system of riverside caves. Prior
to the attack the only communication
between these caves and the German ,
rear was by a causeway across the '
Ancre which could only be traversed at
night.
Two Women Injured
