Well, school is out, the picnic
over, and cotton not ready to
chop, so we will just have to read
our books for past time. But it
will be profitable to study our
Sunday school lessons and read
some good book instead of wast
ing time fishing and such like.
We can always find something
good to do that will help us if we
only try.
We are glad to note that Mr.
Ed Duffey is about in usual
health again.
Mr. John Gilbert, one of our
excellent young men, and Miss

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured
by local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There
is only one way to cure catarrhal deafness,
and that is by a constitutional remedy.
Catarrhal Deafness is caused by an in
flamed condition of the mucous lining’ of
the Eustachian Tube. When this tube in
inflamed you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely
closed, Deafness is the result. Unless the
inflammation can be reduced and this tube
restored to its normal condition. Rearing
will be destroyed forever. Many cases of
deafness are caused by catarrh, which ia
an inflamed condition of the mucous sur
faces. Hall's Catarrh Cure acts thru the
blood on the mucous surfaces cf the sys
tem.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Catarrhal Deafness that cannot
be cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure. Circulars

Suspicious Butts Bug.
Whether or not the boll weevil
has arrived in Butts county is an
absorbingly interest! tg question
that was forced to the front Mon
day afternoon when Mr. J. H.
Patrick, one of the county’s best
farmers, brought to Jackson a
specimen of bug closely resem
bling the Mexican boll weevil.
The bugs, there were three of
them carefully encased in a bot
tle, were taken from a stalk of
cotton on Mr. Patrick’s planta
tion on the Griffin road. A large
number of persons saw the bugs
and they were viewed with gen
uine interest.
Agricultural Agent G. E. Rice
was unable to state definitely if
the specimen shown him was the
boll weevil. He was inclined to
think it was the “acorn bug.”
Other persons who have seen the
real boll weevil in Texas, did not
think the bug captured on the
Patrick farm was the dreaded
Mexican boll weevil, though the
resemblance was declared to be
very close.
To settle the question definitely
Mr. Rice sent the bugs' to the
State Entomologist, E. L. Wor
sham, who is considered an au
thority on the pest. His report
will be awaited with animated
attention.
The reported presence of the
boll weevil in and near Butts
county has aroused the keenest
sort of interest throughout this
entire section. The people now
realize that the 'problem is one
that will have to be faced in the
near future —perhaps this season,

Some Oats.
Mr. J. F. Cocke completed the
harvesting of his oat crop last
week, and his total yield makes a
remarkable showing for the pro
ductiveness of Terrell county land.
Mr. Cocke had 26 acres of the
Fulghum variety, and his yield
was secured without the use of
fertilizer, and when the unusually
dry spring is considered it is phe
nomenal. Mr. Cocke has planted
this piece of land in oats for sev
eral years, following the crop with
field peas, and by this method he
has gradually built his land up to
its present state of productive
ness. —Dawson News.
