Today’s Atlanta .Journal contain ed the following news item®, which ill ho road with interest here: “That the invasion of Georgia by the boll weevil is only a matter of two months Is the assertion made Monday by State Entomologist E.

The march of King Cotton’s ar»ii “li(my eastward has progressed more rapidly than ordinarily in conse quence of the unusually mild weath- •*r, and the pest is expected to reach the Southwest part of Georgia during the early part of August, according to Mr. Worsham.

There are two or three sections in the state In the midst of which are set prosperous and growing towns, located remotely from county seats. As a result of this fact, these towns have suffered for lack of rond im provement. In one or two Instances U is said, all the road taxes their I eople have paid, have been put on ro/uli nearer the <ounty seat, and they have received no benefit from It. A striking Instance of this sit uation is afforded at Metter, Ga., in the extreme western section of Bul- loce county, and close to the line of Emanuel and Tattnall. Bulloch’3 policy in load lm;rovement has been to legiu at the county seat and work out, radiating in various direc tions Naturally Emanuel and Tatt- sham, “will reach that part of the 1 nail have not improved the roads #tnte in ample time to do great damage, and probably will destroy tain districts of Atlanta and in that I from a third to a half of this sea way rid the city of the social evil.

The advance into oth u r parts of Georgia will, of course, be gradual, but eventually tlie entite cotton belt will become Infected. “In addition to the boll weevil, the farmers in southwest Georgia have organized to fight it, and, If they persevere, can keep down the damage materially. They have been urged to plant cotton that matures early, so that the bolls wll* have time to mature before the insect comes out from its winter quar ters. “It is a fact that it can be fought successfully, but ideal farming Is essential to that success. “The cotton caterpillar is also on Its way here, but Its dangers and ruvages are checked infinitely more easily than those of' the boll weevl’..

MAYHEM TRIAL IN ATLANTA Atlanta, May 28.—Mayhem Is an offense that seldom comes up in Georgia court procedure, but it fig ures in a $2,500 suit for damages brought by O. H. Sutton against W. M. Henry. Sutton cha-g°a that his assailant attacked him with an um brella and trlei to poke out his eyes with it. The court paper it* a lengthy one, and describes i:i detail bow Sutton nearly lost his eyes. toward Metter because, although close to the line, it is in another county. The result Is Metter hasn’t a rea.ly first class road within ten miles of its limits. It Is pointed out that if Candler county Is created, it will immediately proceed to work the roads radiating from Metter and connecting with good roads into the county seats of all three of the counties from which it proposes to take a portion of territory. Possibly Bulloch and the other counties have done their best in road construction, but that has not re lieved the situation so far as it con cerns the people of Metter. There are one or two other simi lar situations in Georgia, and the people of the communities involved rea’lze that if they are to get good f-ds, th©. only promising method seems to b* to create a new county and go to work on the roads them selves.
