Watch for chenu What Good Does It Do You to Know Something? Advertisements in all Papers and Magazines are all trying to appeal to the intelligent. Now this one is for the great majority. Reliable authority, in fact it was the Draft Boards during the War, figured out that the intelligence of the average Adult of this Country was that of a !13 year old Child. (Now that is giving us the best of it because a 13 year old Child is about the smartest thing we have in this Country), but the 13 year old Child they referred to was one who had been raised on the milk of human Kindness (which is mostly Water) and weaned on a Hard Boiled Egg. You know the smarter the Man the more dissatis fied he is, so cheer, up, let us be happy in our ignorance. What do we care how little we know if we get what we want? “Bull” Dur ham needs no Literacy Test, it is with minority in quality, and with the majority in usage. P. S.

Not so much was loaded at Bowers ville because of the lateness of the chickens there, but it is hoped that that place will do its part on the next run on this upper route which will be June 26th. Next Sale June 12th. The next sale at Hartwell will be June 12th, Friday. Stops will be made at Royston, Elberton, and prob ably Comer. Prices will probably be available by Wednesday afternoon, and you can get these by mail on a card, by depositing 25c for the pur pose of paying postage, writing cards, etc. We will endeavor to give you prices on bulletin board in court house, and otherwise. Prices last time were 20c for hens, roosters 10c, Leghorn fryers 30c, and others 35c, per pound. These prices are better than you will prob ably get on the next sale, because prices always drop at this time of year, and they are going to do it this time in spite of all that you can do. However, we cannot eat many fry ers at 35c per pound, and since there are large numbers to be consumed now, the prices will have to be less in order to get folks to eat them. There is money in them at the prices you will probably get. Os course we should all strive to get our fryers off earlier another year. Some cannot understand why the Leghorn fryers brought 5c a pound less than others. You who have tried peddling fryers in Anderson, and even in Hartwell, find that they are harder to get rid of. Ask your wife who has dressed some at home, and she will know the difference. Stuffing. We regret to say that many of the chickens brought last time were heavily packed with corn or other feed. There was some complaint about it. This is a hard thing to handle. No one wants to buy fry ers at 35c per pound and get a lot of corn along with it. If this stuff ing occurs again it is going to hurt the reputation of Hart county poul try, and thus hurt the price. If it continues to occur each lot will have to be examined, and those stuffed will be DOCKED, and this means that you will lose, because docking will always be heavy, in spite of what can be done. In addition it will lead to disputes, just as you have had in the past in selling stuffed chickens. It is not right to stuff chickens just before sale. It is alright to give them a good feed of soft dough, but to stuff them heavily will not get you anywhere in the end. Bean Beetle. We have noticed the bean beetle working heavily in several gardens. Better dust with calcium arsenate, one pound mixed with hydrated lime nine pounds, putting it on the under side of the leaves. Do not wait un til you see them. They will be there anyway, so prevent any damage by dusting before hand. Corn Worm*. Worms are boring in the corn tops now in many places. The remedy is not good, but arsenate of lead one pound mixed with five pounds of lime, and dusted in the top will pay, and may give control completely. Calcium arsenate will work, but there is more danger of burning your corn, especially young corn. Mix it with nine parts of lime, because it is more poisonous than arsenate of lead. Or the poisons can be mixed with water at the rate of one tablespoon ful to each gallon, and syrup and soap added, and sprayed into the top of the corn. It is well to add a lit tle lime also to the water. Club Leader*. The Hart county club leaders will meet at the court house Saturday af ternoon at 2:00 I’. M., for their reg ular monthly meeting. Spraying Pay*. We have heard numbers of farmers say this year that they never be lieve that spraying orchards would pay so well. We have seen more nice peaches this year in home or chards than we ever saw before. Go look at those orchards which were not sprayed and see the worms and how much rot there is. Many pruned the orchards this year but did not do a good enough job. Remember that it will pay to cut a tree heavily. Testing Cow*. It appears that several hundred cows will be tested over the county this week for tuberculosis. Full re port will be given next week. Every man should have his cows tested. Some are making too much out of the requirement for killing diseased cows, but we believe that this is not well understood, and that most people will pay no attention to this. The danger from tubercular cows is too great to allow anything like this to stand in the way. Soda On Cotton. Soda should be put around cotton as early as practicable. At planting or not later than chopping is the best time. Get yours on, 50 to 100 pounds per acre on average land at once. Corn should have soda when not over knee high. It will pay to put it on later many times, but as a rule this knee high time is best. JUNE THE CRITICAL MONTH IN BOLL WEEVIL WARFARE By The National 801 l Weevil Control Association. The month of June in most parts of the Cotton Belt will be a critical per iod in the boll weevil contest. The farmer who is enabled to protect or defend his cotton plants the nex’ few weeks will get a sufficient number of squares to make some crop in spite of whatever may happen hereafter. The farmer whose first squares arc punctured by the boll weevil will stand a small chance of making a cot ton crop this year. With the squaring of the plant, THE HARTWELL SUN, HARTWELL, GA., JUNE 5, 1925 dusting with calcium arsenate should begin whenever as many as 10 to 15 I per cent of the squares show punc tures by boll weevil. If the percent age of punctured squares is not more than 10 per cent at any given time, dusting will be needless expense for the simple reason that a large per centage of the squares will drop un der any circumstances and a 10 per cent infestation is causing no damage beyond this normal loss by shedding. Large Emergence. Reports from the observers of the United States Department of Agri culture and the agricultural colleges at typical points throughout the Cot ton Belt show that the emergence of weevils from hibernation has been rather large in most places and below normal at only one or two points. Hence the pest is entering the period of its most serious depredations in rather large numbers. What the de velopment will be during June will depend in considerable degree upon the weather conditions. The weather during May was rather favorable for weevil development and if the June weather conditions are the average of the last few years (omitting the exceptional weather of last June) the farmer may expect a heavy attack. The well informed and well prepar ed farmer has not omitted to poison the weevils that were found feeding upon the leaf buds before the plants began to square. That farmer has delayed the period of heavy infesta tion and his next step will be to use calcium arsenate dust when the wee vils puncture 10 to 15 per cent of the squares. The whole point of success in war fare against the weevil is accurate observation upon the actual condi tions prevailing at any given time. There is no hard and fast rule of uni versal application which will control the pest. There is no simple remedy. There is no dead shot machine. It is all a matter of close attention, thor ough understanding of weevil habits and readiness to give instant applica tions of poison after the period of squaring begins. Economy in Poiioning. Nor is there any invariable rule as to the number of poisonings or the intervals between poisoning because the need will vary as the weather is favorable or unfavorable to the in sect. The wise farmer takes advan tage of warm and dry periods and lets the weather fight the battle against the weevil. Experience shows that about 5 to 7 pounds of calcium arsenate per acre should be used at each application and generally there should be about three applications at the rate of one every four days but this rule is subject to modification ac cordingly as to whether it rains short ly after the poison has been applied. In that case the poisoning should be immediately repeated. The sum of the poisoning experi ence is that if no more than 10 out of 100 squares show puncture there is no need to poison, but if more than that percentage of squares are punc tured it is well to begin poisoning. Throughout the season the poisoning when properly made should keep the infestation of squares well below 25 per cent until the crop is completely made. If that is done the farmer will have obtained a normal cotton crop. WHEN BETTER AUTOMOBILES ARE BUILT, BUICK WILL BUILD THEM j Question: Why is a Buick so safe and so easy to steer? : Because of Buick’s wonderful steering mechanism. It is the most expensive type now installed on any motor car—and worth the difference because it adds to Buick per formance still another point of superiority. Hartwell Buick Co. A. C.
