BORING INTO THE YOUNG BOLLS
Same Insect That Appeared In August
Last Year Has Renewed Attack
Upon the Young Cotton
Bolls.
Farmers in Americus yesterday
told of the appearance in their cot
ton fields of the same destructive in
sect that wrought havoc here last sea
son by boring the young cotton bolls
and thereby destroying it. The In
sect looks something like a weevil,
but is different from the Texas boll
weevil, though seemingly as des
tructive. Last year the insects made
their appearance here about August
20th, but this season are already up
on the scene a month in advance.
Last year a vast quantity of cotton
was utterly destroyed here by the
weevil, and coming thus early for
the new crop some little apprehension
Is felt. Wherever the weevil stings
a cotton boll it decays rapidly, and
vast deal of damage was thus done
In Sumter and other ' counties
south Georgia last season.

ATLANTA, July 20.—After hearing
from the great crowd of negroes who
voiced their opposition to the meas
ure, the house committee on- consti
tutional amendment adopted the re
port recommending for passing the
Williams disfranchisement bill. The
vote In committee stood 11 to T in
favor of the bill. The Williams bill
has already been unanimously re
ported by the constitutonal amend
ments committee of the senate and
set for next Tuesday. The measure
is so drawn that it will practically
disfranchise all of the negroes and
not' deprive a single white man of
the right to'vote.

Inside of a month the pamphlet
dealing with the business, agricultural
and Industrial conditions of Sumter
county and of Americus, and with
the opportunities offered^ here along
these lines, will be issued and ready
for distribution.
The handsome booklet will contain
from 32 to 40 pages, outside of tin
cover. It will probably be a forty
page book, with a heavy illustrated
and specially designed cover that
will be a very attractive frontis page
to the readable and valuable con
tents within.
Fifteen thousand copies of the
pamphlet will be printed. Of these
ten thousand will be reserved by
the land and industrial department of
the Seaboard Air Line Railway,
under whose auspices the work of
compiling and publishing is being
done. This department will use the
pamphlets to the best advantage, dis
tributing them throughout the, en
tire country wherever there is a
party thinking of coming to this sec
tion to locate either as a farmer, a
business man, a manufacturer, or rs
a mechanic.
The land and Industrial department
makes it Its business to get in touch
with men who contemplate locating
in the South and endeavoring to get
them to establish themselves In the
territory traversed by the Sea
board.
Great Benefits Should Follow.
Sumter county and Americus offer
so many magnificent opportunities,
and these opportunities will be set
forth to such advantage In- the pam
phlet now approaching completion,
that it Is Inevitable, that in the next
few years direct ahd lasting bent fits
will be derived from the little book.
The Americus Board of Trado
takes 1,500 copies of the pamphlet
and the City of Americus 1,000. The
other 2,500 are being placed among
business men. Only about 400 be-
main to be placed, and tills will un
doubtedly be easily dono during the
next few days.
It was through tho Americus ltoaid
of Trade that the Seaboard was In
duced to send its special representa
tives, Messrs. T. K. Bates and V. M.
Spiller, to Americus. It had not
been the Intention to take hold ot
any of hte smaller cities in this pub
licity campaign, but to Issue a pam
phlet as to Savannah and its ad
vantages, and also pamphlets dealing
with Montgomery, Ala., Atlanta. Oa..
and perhaps two or three othe- large
cities.*
When the matter was put up to
the Industrial Department by tho
Board ot Trade the justice ot in
cluding Americus and Sumter coun
ty was at once, appreciated. The
fact that the pamphlet is being issued
devoted entirely to this city and coun
ty, is entirely due to 'hte progressive
attitude assumed by the Americus
Board of Trade.
The pamphlet will be as complete
as It Is possible to make It. It is not
a question of crowding a lot of in
digested matter into a few pages as
possible.
It Is the Intention of those who
have the matter In charge to give a
very comprehensive review of the city
and county from every standpoint and
if It takes fifty pages to do it the
pamphlet will have fifty pages.
Special photographs have been made
of a number of buildings, residences
and factories, included, farm Beenes,
etc. Other photographs already In
existence have ben secured.
In all about seventy-five illustra
tions will enable the stranger to
come to a pretty definite conclusion
as to what kind of a city Americus
Is, and what kind of a county Sum
ter Is.
