The number of miles any product travels before reaching your home doesn’t
add one whit to its quality--more likely it will add to the price. There should be
no particular magic in a label because it bears the name of a distant city or state.
Distance may lend enchantment, but it unvariably adds to the price.

ABOUT THAT PASTURE WORK
Very soon it will be time to make
definite plans for placing in that bur
clover and any other plants to be plant
ed in the early fall in the pasture.
Arrangements should be niado for bur
clover seed now.
Visits to pastures have been made
out of the county and within the conn
ty and the possibilities for good past
ures are being realized. After these
t rips are all over, some one will always
ask why he was not notified, and add
that he would have been glad to have
made the trip had he known about it.
Having been in OnTroll county only a
short time, I do not know all of those
interested in pastures or any other en
terprise, so it would help you and me
if you would address a enrd to me say
ing that you are interested in improv
ing vour permanent pasture. 1 have
something on pastures to mail to you
now and will mail to you as soon us 1
have your name and address.
While you are thinking about it, and
whether you are interested in pastures
or not, please write me what you are
interested in. it may be
hogs .poultry, applying poison for boll
weevil or a number of other things.
At some time i may have something of
interest to you for your particular in
terest.—C. H. Ingram, County Agent.
CONTROLLING BEAN BUGS
I have inquiries every day as to meth
ods of controlling beau bugs. The vn
rious poisons are very effective in eon-
trolling this post but the question ill
ways comes: Will it lie safe to use
the beans after the poison has been
applied? The answer is yes, provi
ded care is exercised in washing the
beans thoroughly before using.
Calcium arsenate may be used and
should be thoroughly mixed with equal
parts of hydrated (water slaked) lime.
Lead arsenate may be used and
should be thoroughly mixed one part
lead arsenate to ton pounds of hydra
ted lime.
For either mixture a dusting inn
chine used for dusting cotton may be
used. In case a machine cannot be had
some hand device may be used to dust
the mixtures on the plant. It should
be placed on while plants are damp
and the plant should not be made white
but should only show greenish gray.—

The Mexican beau beetle is becoming
vervs serious pest on the leguminous
crops' in Georgia, particularly on the
Barden beans and their close relatives
It was first reported in the South axpuiu
Birmingham, P Ala., in July, 1920 Since
then it has spread rapidly in Alabama
and into Georgia, ia which state it ms
been reported from Darien and Thomas-
vile in the south to all of the northern
counties .iust south of the Ten#l:see
border. The beetle has also malW its
wav as far north as Kentucky an* Dr
yin in. This insect belongs to a *irge
group of beetles, among which we find
tho Irish potato bug and many other
beetles aro are injurious to young nouns,
cantaloupes nnd like plants. There aro
also beneficial insects in this group.
According to tho Alabama publica
tions, the bean beetle feeds on snap
beans, navv beans, lima or butter
beans, corn - field beans, beggar weed
cow-peas, flowering beans, soy beans,
sweet clover and alfalfa.. Velvet beans,
crimson clover, espendeza and vetch are
nirev attacked, while peanuts and Eng
lish peas do not seem to be hurt at all.
The adult beetle, when it is mature, if
:i bronze brown with sixteen black
snots The larva is yellowish nnd hairy
looking and it takes from four to five
weeks for the insect, to pass from the
egg to.the adult. The beetles spend
the winter as adults, coming out in the
early spring to lay their eggs and start
thoir depradations.
The state of Anbamft has had more
experience in fighting the bean beetle
than any other state in tho South, and
they recommend a dust made of foui
parts of hydrated lime, one part of dust
ing sulphur nnd one part of high grade
calcium arsenate. These materials
should be well mixed together and used
as a dust with a hand (luster. If large
areas are to bo treated, it takes about
twenty pounds of the mixture to dust
an acre. The first application should
be made ns soon as the feeding injury
by liibernnted beetles becomes common.
This is generally about the time the
blooming of tho beans begins. Treat
ment should he repeated every seven
days or so oil snap beans, nnd from foui
to five applications should be sufficient
to control the pest. On butter beans or
lima beans treatment should be very
ten days. No fear of poisoning need
be entertained from eating beans from
dusted fields as beans are always wash
ed well before cooking in the first place,
and in the second place very small
amounts of dust would be on any indi
vidual bean.

MRS. E. J. EARNEST
All of the friends of Mrs. Earnest
were snddened when the nows came
that her soul had taken its flight to
another world to spend all eternity.
Her body was laid to rest in tho Villa
Rica cemetery. She leaves a heart
broken husband and three children to
mourn her departure.
We can’t understand why this good
mother was taken, although we know
that our Father is too wise to mnko a
mistake. Stie was such a sweet wo
man. To knew her was to love her
Prof. Earnest taught school here at
Hickory Level some six or seven years
ago nnd we learned to love her when
we first know her. She made n host of
friends here qnd the ones that knew her
best loved her most. She tried to be a
friend to everybody and when you vis
ited in her home she couldn’t do enough
for you. She could make you feel so
welcome. '
She asked her loved ones to meet her
in heaven and to be good to eneti other.
Oh it means so much to dio a Chris
tian. She was such a tender loving
mother. We want to say to tho be
reaved husband and dear children to
live right, life is so short, wo will
soon go to meet her on that beautiful
shore. Heaven is denrer to us when
wo know that we have a precious loved
one beckoning us to come to that beau
tiful place flint God has prepared foi
us, if we only live hero as we should.

besides a large number of relatives and
friends to mourn her death.
She was laid to rest on the 3rd of

rapidy growing beans should be used
nnd liberal amounts of fertilizer should
tie applied to stimulate growth so that
tlie beans may afford to lose a few
eaves and still make a profitable crop.—

Whereas, Mrs. Tabiatha Bell Steed
was born January 16tli, 1862, and died
October 28th, 1922. Her husband, Mr.
Eli Steed, and two sons passed away
several years before her departure.
Whereas, she leaves soveral sons nnd

departure, and
Whereas, she was a faithful mother,
n true and loyal Christian, a cheerful

scarcely ever spoken of her,
Therefore, Be it Resolved:
1. That Roopville Baptist church ex

2. That tho church and community
shall miss her greatly and that our loss
is God’s victOTV.

—two log churches, two of lumber and
one of brick. We roalize that the
church lias not only lost her oldest
member but, a real mother in Israel.
She was no public speaker, but she was
such a fine homo worker. She was
loyal to her church ns long as she was
able. When we had Saturday meetings
a long time ago, she was always there
unless something was in the way. Sis
ter McColister was conscious that the
time for her spirit to take its flight
was at hand. She told her lover ones
bv her bedside that she was going to
die and for them to tell her loved ones
that were not present to meet her in
heaven.
We are so glad that when we put. this
dear one out of sight that we did not
liurv her influence of lienrlv a century.

Asleep in Jesus, blessed sleep,
From which none ever wake to weep;
A calm and undisturbed repose,
Unbroken by the last of foes.
Asleep in Jesus, O for me,

Securely shall my ashes life,
Waiting the summons from on high.
