The heavy rains during July, the important cotton growing month, with increas ed fertilization have caused a heavy and rank weed, shutting out in many places the sunlight and keeping the dust from reaching the vital places. The weevil will be migrating soon if he hasn’t already begun. Dust thoroughly a couple of times when you can make it stick for 36 to 48 hours without rain, and you will be surprised at the results you get. This with the topping of your big weed cotton will get good results for you. The rainy weather in July has been very favorable for weevil work. Farmers who, up until tne r-yis began, claimed that they had nJ weevils and were opimistic over the cotton outlook had better use every precaution to keep down dam age. These rainy days may change his viewpoint. Squares can be picked up as well in rainy weatner as in dry weather. Top big cotton, pick up squares and dust thoroughly. There is no question but that dusting pays when done properly, and to de stroy a square with a grub in it keeps the tribe from increasing.” FRENCH COAL OUTPUT NOW AT HIGH LEVEL PARIS, August 2.—jhe coal out put of France, cut in two. by German devastation, continues to increase, and in January went beyond the prewar point.

BOBBED HAIR CAUSES SCHOOL DISTURBANCE , MEXICO CITY, August 2. Bobbed hair already the source of nearly every other sociological dis turbance, now enters th» list as a subject for riot calls and troop action. Mexico City schools have been suspended until Monday , thou sands of embattled students arc in an open clash and Yhqui Indian sol diets have been called out to main tain orders—all because of the claim that bobbed hair is unwoman ly and an evidence of advanced feminism that cannot be tolerated. The authors of this opinion, the students of the first year prepara tory and medical schools, organized their ranks to oppose the “bobbed hair defense league” and attacked all th e city short-haired girls as they passed the school. They hacked their hair with shears, immersed the girls in tubs of cold water ar.d Carried several of them away in automobiles to the outskirts of rhe capital, where the offenders were submitted to further ill treatment. Seniors in the univeresity classes rushing to the defense of the bob bed hair girls, entered the class, rooms and launched a counter at tack against the molesters.

GBENT WORKERS' STRIKE TffiHTEIIEO Baltimore Manufacturers Draw ing Proposals in Hope of Set tlement With Union BALTIMORE, August 2.—De claring that accepting the demands of the International Ladies’ Gar ment Workers’ local would ruin the industry in BaltimoiL 1 , owners of garment-manufacturing shops con ferred today, drawing up counter proposals which will be presented to the strike leaders. The strikers urge in support of their demands the same conditions that are now in effect in New "h urk, Philadelphia am: other large centers of the industry. r.i refusing to accept the de mands the local employers contend that New York and other cities I sve natural competitive trade ad vantages over Baltimore and that were the same wages and working conditions put in effect here they would be driven out of the busi ness. A. S. Goldsborough, secretary of the Baltimore Association of Com merce, who has confered with both the strikers and the employer.-, hopes to bring them to an agree ment, he said. When the owners have their terms prepared. Mr. Goldsborough will confer with Sol Polokof, business agent of th e Gar ment Workers’ Union, in an at tempt to get him to agree to a set tlement of the differecnes. If this plan fails to settle the strike, Mr. Goldsborough will make an attempt to arrange an arbitra tion of the differences, he said. Mr. Polokoff said he is willing to have the matters in dispute arbi trated if he is assured that the em ployers as a body will accept the decision of the arbitration commit tee. He explained that unless all the employers agree to the arbitral method of setting the dispute he would be unwilling to submit the workers' demands, as the union de sires the same conditions to pre vail in every garment shop. OBERAMMERGAU VILLAGE TORN WITH DISSENbIUN OBERAMMERGAU, Bavaria, August 2.—Oberammergau is not the peaceful village that it was be fore Anton Ltng and his wood carving companions went to Ameri ca early this year. Local opponents of the trip to the United States have gained reinforcements since the re turn of the Lang party some weeks ago and the town has divided into bitter Lang and anti-Lang groups. The anti-Lang forces assert that the American visit of the Oberam mergau players was an attempt to commercialize the Passion Play, that the trip was a financial failure and they have threatened to sabotage the next production of the perform ance scheduled for 1932. Anton Lang himself has held aloof from his critics thus far and re fuses to answer them, contending that the charges are unfounded, and avers that the Passion Play will not suffer from criticism or jealousies of individuals. The meanest man in the United States ate a green apple so he could keep the family awake all night. BASEBALL MONDAY, August 4th, 3:45 P. M. Waycross A. C. L. VS. Macon C. of Ga.

Foster, worker’s party nominee for the presidency, on Debbs' intention to support the candidacy of Robert M. LaFollette . Debs’ letter states “he is unable to understand why you (Foster) should conclude that it (Debs’ en dorsement of the Cleveland pro gressive convention) “will come as a shock to thousands of workers,’ “I can readily understand,” the letter continues, ‘ ‘why it . would have suited you better had the so cialist party ended its career at the scene, or remained dissevered to cut as sorry and discrediting a figure as the communist party will in the campaign this year.” Debs declares that the commun ists were prepared to endorse La Follette at St. Paul and would have done so “had not La Folette pub licly denounced them.” In conclusion the letter says: “You may be right in your criti cism—and I may be wrong as I have often been before. Having no Vatican in Moscow to guide me I must follow the light I have, and this 1 have done in the present in stance.” If you don’t believe people still eat onions stick your nose into a cheap picture show and sniff.
