“Coccidiosis”—An Infectious Poultry
Disease.
(J. H. Wood.)
Coccidiosis is a very infectious dis-
ouso and lins been found quite common
in' the South this year.
Tho disease appears in chicks from 44
to 10 weeks old. Stunting, droopiness,
loss in appetite accompanied by a slight
ly bloody diarrhoea aro common symp
toms. The writer hits found birds in
fected with it, however, showing none
of tho above symptoms.
A post mortem examination shows
tho caeca, or blond intestines (corres
ponding to the appendix in man) en
larged and some tini^e ijllc.d with, a-hnrdy
iflyMsy substance or a blood ip mis.
The death rate will be high, esjyeriuUy,
during cold wet weatlier, if tlie disease
is allowed to develop.
Disease is generally caused by Con
taminated soil or unsanitary housos.
Clean and spray houses every day thor
oughly. Disinfect, lime, and plow soil.
If possible, inovo birds to new soil.
Feed birds sparingly on Bcrateh grain,
morning and'night, and give-them all
the sour skimmed milk or buttermilk
they will drink. Place one level tea-
spoonful of common linking soda to each
quart of drinking water.
Crude catechu dissolved in the drink
ing water, using one-third teaspoonful
of powdered catechu to ench gallon of
drinking- water, will help to control
coccidiosis. Should bo used as long as
disease is present. A dose of epsom
salts, using one-half to three-fourth
pounds to 100 broilers, should be given
tho day before either of the above treat
ments are given.

A Now Method of Weevil Control.
Below is a detailed outline of the
Florida method of woovil control given
by Mr. J. ■*'. Bnzemore, Agricultural
Agent, Central of Georgia Railway
Company. We liavo studied this meth
od very carefully and have discussed it
witli Mr. Bazemoro, who made a special
trip to Florida in order to got first
hand information of this method. Con
sidering all the available information
wo aro able to get on this method of
control wo certainly believe that there
are merits in it and think it deserves a
try-out in a siijiaU way. We would
like to (jive whatever assistance we may
to any Who will trj> oi|t tjns'on a small
acreage 1 : May wo suggest that 'you
carefully read tho comments on this
method given by Mr. Bazomore below
and if interested in trying it out in a
small way write us at once. Consider
able inteTest is being shown in this
method in Georgia and ninny demonstra
tions will bo earriod on in the State.
And wo should have several in Carroll
county so that wo may see for our
selves under our own conditions just
tho value and adaptability of it to us.

The Florida Method.
Tho Florida method o$ weovil.control
is based on definite information which
has been obtained during the several
years its originator, Mr. George D.
Smith, entomologist of tho Florida Ex
periment Station at Madison, Fla., has
been working on the metliod. These
facts arc as follows:
1. Knowledgo of the time when the
weevils surviving the winter are out of
hibernation. For Madison, Fla., it is
known that 98 per cent of the weevils
are out of hibernation by June 6th,
3. Weeyils feed on practically noth
ing but cotton and reproduce in nothing
but cotton-squares and bolls.
S. There-is practically no, migration
Of wk'evils from one field to another
until late in-the season.
.4 It' has boon found that stripping
ADI. the squares from the stalks when
jjtliere is an average of from two to
’’ihretl large squares to the stalk, causes
(1) a fruitage stimulatiop to the ex
tent, that more forms will bo put on
(Hiring the season than if the squares
had not been stripped off, and (2) that,
.vyithiu,0,0 days q full crop of cotton will
be set from file bottom to top.
■. .3. It is definitely known that'cal
cium arsenate will KILL wvoVils if
properly applied.
With the above facts as known
quantities, they are applied as the
‘ ‘ Florida Metliod ’ ’ as-follows:
In' northern Florida, cotton planted
around April 1st, has an average of two
to three large squares to tho stalk
by June 5th when 98 per cent of tl*o
weevils arc out of hibernation. At this
time. ALL the squares are stripped from
the stalks, leaving only the terminal
buds for the weevils to feed on. Late
in the evening of tire day tho squaros
are stripped from the stalks, a heavy
application of from 5 to 7 pounds of
dry calcium arsenate is applied (o the
terminal buds with a hand gun, thor
oughly enveloping tho buds with the
poison. Within a co.uple of days ail
the weevils in the field have fed in the
terminal buds and have been killed
by tlie poison. In the event the poison
is washed off within 48 hours a second
application should be made. If prop
erly appiled, this is the end of the,
boll weevil fight for tlie season, and'
tire farmer is left, to concern liimsolf
with tlie proper cultivation of his cotton
crop.
Tlie members of tlie Agricultural de
partment of tlie Central of Georgia
Railway ninrlo a visit to Madison, Fla.,
recently for the purpose-of making, a.
study of the “Florida Method” so fts.-
to be able to advise tlie farmers ulong
our lilies who may be interested in try
ing tins'metliod out this year. We, weroJs
thoroughly convinced that it is a practi- r>!
cal method, and feel that it.shmild be
given-a thorough test in Gebriga, this
season and will DO very triad to co-oper
ate trith farmers who wish to give it, li
trial. For the benefit of those who ntay
raise the question as to the time when
we should begin, I wish to adriso that
Mr. Smith fools sure that we should be
gin, as they do in Nortlii Florida* three
days before tlie first blobm appears.
Further information ns to this method
may be hnd by writing the University
of Florida, Gainesville, Fla., for 'the
bulletin 'ifi5, or by communicating with
me at Griffin, On.

The confidence of the community in a bank is its greatest
element of strength.
The strength of our bank is evidenced by the confidence
of its large number of depositors and satisfied customers, among
whom are some of the best people in the country.
Our directors are composed of the best men of the country,
who actually direct the affairs of the bank. Men who have
made a success of their own affairs and are capable of handling
the affairs of the bank on a safe and sound basis.
Our bank is examined at frequent intervals by capable
auditors sent out by the state who come without our foreknowl
edge. We are also required to make and publish sworn state
ments of the condition of this bank at regular intervals. The
call for this statement comes to us based on certain dates, with
out our having any knowledge of when it is coming, hence we
are unable to “fix” for these periods, even if we were disposed
to do so. In addition to this we are required by law to carry a
certain per cent of our deposits in cash reserve in order to take
care of any emergency that might arise.
