"The capital By J. W. FIROR County Farm Agent IN REFERENCE TO THE DESTRUCTION OF COTTON STALK8 The writer ha* been aaked many queetlona in the laat few day* about the destruction , of cotton stalks as a means of controlling the boll weevil during the *.ext cotton season.- These questions seem to be so persistent that it aeems worth while to give them some consideration from several angles. First. As a theoretical proposition ifMtritrtlnn of cotton otfilkf several weeks before the first kill ing frost will greatly reduce the number of boll weevils which go Into hibernation and thereby ies- tpe number that will Come out of winter quarters next season. To illustrate this in figure, tests have shown that where cotton stalk* were destroyed early In the fall and some several weeks before killing frost, 3 per cent of the total number of weevils lived through the winter while under the same condition* and on the same farm when stalks were not destroyed at nil 43 per cent of the weevils sur vived the winter. In addition to this advantageous difference In survival, thfere will not be aa many weevils to go Into winter quarters on those farms where the stalks are destroyed ns on those where the stalks are not destroyed.’ Although the number that wll* go Into winter quarters in the vicinity of a cotton field, on which the stalks have been destroyed, owing to several factors. It will usually be leas than 25 per cent less than the number which goes Into winter quarters near the fields tlon and will enable a farmer to get hie crops planted during adverse springe like the spring of 1328, where without fall plowing it would be Impossible to get the crop? planted at the times they ought to be put In. Also during good spring seasons he has more time to give to preparation for planting and subsequent cultivation la bet ter and requires less labor. Then there la a benefit derived from fall plowing in this section which the writer has never heard mentioned locally, that la the de-, •tructlon of the winter stage of the com ear worm, which la the same worm as attacks the cotton bolls and which worm did " onslderable damage during the past summer. This worm lives through the win ter as a pupa snugly nestled at the end of a small hole 2 to 4 inches bcV>w the surface of the ground The fall plowing 6t the land de stroys these holes through which th#moths emerge in the spring and also destroy* many pupae by breaking their popa cases. Around Athens With CoT. T. Larry Gantt I Some farmers, because they have not made cotton themselver under boll weevil conditions, do not like to hear of any one else making a fair crop of the ataple. In our crop reports we never fail to give the name of our authority, and always try to Interview rella- ble men.

S-. D. Fambrough, of Bishop, says he has 75 acres in cotton and is good for a bale to three acres. Mr. Fambrough says he had a fine prospect until late in the season, when the boll weevil hit h|'m hard and no amount of poison could keep them in check. Dr. Holliday says on his little farm on the Lexington road .he has made more cotton Ohan was ever grown before the appearance of the boll weevil. The doctor says ho has a mixture of his own composition that sticks,to the stalk ami' does the work. He says the Hill Mix ture, enles* fresh, kills not only the leaves but the. squares on cot- W. D. Griffith of Macon was in the city this week shaking hands with h.'s old friends, and their name is legion. Btll had so changed that we «¥d not recognise him as the same genial fellow we knew In . times gone by. He tells 113 that- the counties below the Georgia) road are almost stripped of neg-| roes and crops are very unprom- islng. Jim Price says that Walter Touchstone, of Spalding county, this year plantod 200 acres In cot ton and employed the Florida method of picking off the early squares, and thus getting rid of weevils. He has made 150 bales. Mr. Price says the state experi mental station tried all methods of fighting the pest and found the Florida plan most satisfactory. We have had an unusual fall for gathering crops and tftJs saved cot ton. But we cannot count on such weather and In pitching your cot ton acreage next year better not over-crop yourself. Only plant as much cotton as you can keep poisoned' with your force of work- Profs.

Some 800 thoroughbred ! pullets were sold at SucVon and they brought good gpices. They; were ot the different strains and all pedigreed fowls. A large crowd was at the sale from many coun ties. H. B. Meadow, near Smltlionla, says tie's year he had eight one- horse croppers and each planted from eight to ten acres of cotton. Thus far they have gotten out five bales each, and wll average con- sidf'-ably over half a bale to the acre. Mr. 'Mteadow says he plant ed one and a ljalf acres In late com and will sell about |150 worth of roasting ears. He has grown on his farm plenty of corn, meat and all else to run him next year, and will have some to sell. ttf Lexington, says there Is no foundation for this report; that their cheese factory is a great success and dairymen from near Athena are bringing milk to It.

And this number of weevils in each case Is 10,000. Let us fol low the theoretical problem. On field number one the stalks are destroyed three weeks before frost Seventy five percent of the adult weevils go elsewhere in search of food leaving 2500 weevil* to go Into winter quarters In the vicinity of that field, while from field number 2 the entire ten thou sand weevils go Into winter quar ters. Still* further, it is possible that only three per cent of th* weevils going Into winter qeartera from field No. 1 will live through* the winter by virtue of having their food cut short several week* before hibernating and being in poor condition to stand the winter and the number surviving the win ter from field No. 1 would be but seventy five weevil*: while from field No. 2 there would be 4100 sur vived which stalk destruction Is ad vocated as one of the best means of fighting the boll weevil and theory is based on sound experi mental data. grauv »«» now famous StribUng-McTlgue set forth to Its wa> gt TeD M well as the ap- \ lumhjii ’peacson ohrtil edwt ehrdl dhWJ ERWIN, ERWIN A NIX, £ara n ce of the Right Honrablu meys at , ^-aw for Ottumwa .

A meeting of cUtxene -HI be held at the county court houae to dartre plan, and many prominent speak er* will offer suggestion*, accord ing to Mire Claire Hancock tbe secretary of the local chapter. There will be no eubacrtptlona taken at tbe meeting Vch la to be a buatnea* meeting to formulate plana only. One of the principal subjects to be considered will be tbe propoeel that tbe DeKalb chapter take a aubscriptlon of sustaining memberahlps for the ad vancement of the work te tbe county In tbe near future . Some farmers In this county who throughly appreciate this great benefit that results In early destruo tlon of cotton stalks, have not u yet finished picking cotton and In some coses 10 to 15 pounds of lint per sere wilt open. As a practical problem, the nulka should not bs turned under until tbe cotton Is picked down to a point where what remains will not pay for th* pick ing or nearly so. And when this point ts reached If the farmer can do so, It Is certainty advisable to destroy the stalks by ripping up or turning under or by other means. There Is no doubt that every farm er who doee this will benefit by It next reeson. Some fields here and there could be turned right pow without losing sny lint and It would bs fine if thle were done. Pn connection with th# early de-. structlon of cotton stalks we have certain benefits to be derived Irani fall plowing. It Is practicable to plow land during the fall and early winter months and thereby reduce the amount of winter washing That Is by plowing on the contour and ridging the surface with each furrow. A great number of email terraces will hold mu* better then a few large onee, so a sue, cession of mixture terraces In ad dition to the regular terraces makes for the best protection against winter washing. As mentioned In foregoing grtl eles the advantage of plowing for stalk destruction In tbe fall Is very great In bool weevil controL Furthermore fields that have been turned In the fall are In better condition for early spring prepara- BEAUTIFUL FUR $| ) B° wn COATS 4 STUNNING DRESSES 12 95 As Low As Ladies’ Coats As Low As 095 Men’s SUITS As Low As 50 22 Ladies SUITS As Low As 24 5# t\ G* V SPLENDID MEN’S Overcoats AS LOW AS 23 95 O'* X
