FERTILIZER HELPS TO BEAT THE BOLL WEEVIL ~ “If you are going to fight the boll ‘wegvil for the cotton crop have a crop worth fighting for.” In certain sections where the use of commercial fertilizer is necessary to produce a full crop many farmers are disposed to figure that if they poison they cannot afford the additional cost of fertilizer. But, say the boll weevil specialists, “if you are going to poison you can’t afford not to fertilize.” “If you fertilize, you can’t afford not to poison.” One is an insurance policy ‘to iprotect the other. At least, that is the igovernment view of the matter, based on ‘years of experimentation by spe cialists of the department of agricul ture at the Delta Laboratory, Tallu lah, La., and observations covering the entire cotton belt. ' “There is a tendency,” says B. R. Coad, director of the laboratory, “to expect’ the impossible of poisoning with calcium arsenate. Now, calcium arsenate dust is the one thing, as far as anybody knows, that will control the boll weevil, but that is all it does. It will not produce any more cotton than the ground would produce if there were no boll weevils. A great many farmers, however, get the idea if they must bear the expense of poi soning they can not afford to buy fer tilizer. Others get the idea that if they buy fertilizer they can’t afford the ex pense of poisoning. Both classes of farmers throw money away. Highly fertilized ground will, of course, grow more cotton sometimes than the wee vils can destroy. If it is exceptionally good ground it may grow so much that the owner does not notice the CALCIUM ARSENATE CAR COMING HERE WILL BE AT DAWSON ON MAY 24TH, AND SUPPLY FARM ERS OF THIS COUNTY. The Georgia board of entomology has arranged with the Central of Georgia railroad to operate a car through the points named below, on dates mentioned, to furnish calcium arsenate to the farmers at actual cost, which is 9 cents per pound f. o. b. your county seat. It is to be sold at the car door for cash, in packages containing 25, 50, 100 and 200 pounds: Griffin, Wednesday, May 17th. Barnesville, Thursday, May 18th. Forsyth, Friday, May 19th. Fort Valley, Saturday, May 20th. Montezuma, Monday, May 22nd. Smithville, Tuesday, May 23rd. Dawson, Wednesday, May 24th, Cuthbert, Thursday, May 25th. Coleman, Friday, May 26th. Ft. Gaines, Saturday, May 27th. Albany, Monday, May 29th. Arlington, Tuesday, May 30th. Blakely, Wednesday, May 31st. The state board of entomology has found by actual experiment that cot ton can be grown successfully by this method and it is furnishing calcium arsenate on an average of nearly 100 per cent less than it could be purchas ed for last year. This is an unusual opportunity for every farmer in the county to get this vear's supply of calcium arsenate at the reasonable price of 9 cents per pound, delivered at his county seat. Fewer Automobiles In Terrell County Decreased Wumber Also Is Shown Throupliout the State. _ or beipg drawn by old .. i ‘e more in order now than tieretofore, as shown by automobile vegistration in the office of the secre tary of state. There has been a sharp decline in practically all of the coun ties of Georgia. The number in Terrell has decreas ed from 911 to 853, a loss of 58. In neighboring counties the figures are: Baker srom 167 to 125; Calhoun from 352 to 296; Clay from 277 to 220, Early from 531 to 468; Lee from 267 to 234; Randolph from 569 to 261; Webster from 445 to 163. In Dough erty county the number of automobiles increased from 1,091 to 1,337; Sumter from 1,320 to 1,371; Stewart from 371 to 375; Quitman from 78 to 85. The same number. is reported in Schley for the last two years, 249. ; The smallest number of automobiles is reported in Union county, which has 23. Towns county runs Union a close second with 24, and Gilmer comes next with 69. All of these are north Georgia counties.

Dawson, Georgia boll weevil injury and probably thinks he is making a full crop. The manage ment of one of the biggest plantations in the delta—which means one of the biggest in the world—thought just that until we persuaded them to try poisoning as a check. They use calcium arsenate over the entire plantation now, and it has increased the yields a great deal. “But all-the increase in cotton that can be got by poisoning on poor land does not pay the cost of the operation. Liberal use of fertilizer and good cul tivation are essential to real success with poisoning on that kind of land. Otherwise, you are flikely to save a crop from the weevil that is not worth saving. If the farmers of the cotton belt will realize that fact, poisoning will save next season several times more money than it ever has saved before. : . “We are, off course, tremendously in terested in seeing the cotton growers realize hard dollars on calcium arsen ate poisoning. Some of us have spent the best years of our lives in making it possible for them to do that, and ,we naturally do not like to see the jopportunity thrown away for the lack lof enough fertilizer to make a crop. {lt is equally painful to us to see well tfertilized land producing poor crops for lack of poisoning. The two things go together. The more you fertilize the more you can afford to poison. And the more you poison the more you can afford to fertilize.” ' The Delta Laboratory, Tallulah, La., i will furnish specific information along lthis line to farmers who write for it. RECONSTRUCTS BODY FROM A SKELETON DEAD GIRL THEN IDENTIFIED AS PERSON MISSING FROM HOME NEAR BUFFALO. NEW YORK, N. Y.—From the skeleton of a young girl which had lain mear the summit of Cheesecock mountain, near Haverstraw, N. Y., nearly a year, when it was found by a boy mountain ciimber two weeks ago, Grant Williams, Patchogue, L. 1., expert in identifications, recon structed the face and upper half of the body of Lillian White before he knew it was she. Two sisters of the girl and Dr. Charles S. Little, superintendent of the Letchworth valley home for feeble minded, in Rockland county, N. Y., instantly identified the reconstructed face as that of Lillian, who ran away from the institution more than a year ago. And Lillian was but one of near ly a half dozen girls who have escaped from the home in the last two years. The two sisters, both married and living in Brooklyn, declared the work of plaster, putty, glass eyes and paint Williams had made from the frag ments of the crushed skul!, the wisp of hair and the teeth found on the mountain top was a marvelous image of their sister. Comparison with a photograph showed remarkable resem blance in contours and even in expres sion. Rockland county authorities, assist ed by the New York police and pri vate detectives, whose aid was enlist ed by women interested in the Letch worth home, began hunting following the identification for a man who lived until about the time the skeleton was discovered in a cave 200 feet below the summit of the mountain. Ne charge has been made against the her mit, but it is now believed the girl visited him, possibly lived with him a tme after the disappearance, INTERESTING CHAT FROM CHAMBLISSTON COMMUNITY Personal Mention and News Items of That Section of County.

Throughout the ages wise gray beards, callow youths, learned psychol ogists, pink tea drinkers and more lat terly that species of human kind known as the “lounge lizard,” have been preaching platitudes and deliver ing opinions on the query: “At what age isa woman most dan gerous?” Now, make way for Lady Angela Forbes, famous English writer and prober’Xfter the vagaries of man, who demands to know: “At what age is a man most dan gerous?” : Some prominent persons have very decided views on this subject, but all| agree in eliminating the ' “flipper” (the masculine of flapper) or umbrella cov er suited youth of today who sings a tattered tenor to the more strident tune of his. sister “flapper.”” “It's Not Their Age at AIL” One well-known woman who has had opportunity to know men well says she does not think thdt there is any age at which men are more dan-| gerous than at others. “From the stories told me by the girls who come under my observation I should judge that men are fatally fascinating from the time they utter their first ‘coo’ until they gasp their last breath.” A prominent member of the Wo man’s Club took a few minutes of herl time to comment on the frivolous question of man’s most fascinating age. “I don’t think a man’s age has a thing to do with his attractiveness,” she said. “It is the qualities he pos sesses that make him what he is. A very ycung man can be just as fas cinating as a more mature one. Some people may say that it is the mother instinct that attracts a woman to a young man, but while I consider that this great mother love is a part of all women you will find that they can ‘mother’ an older man the same as a young one.” A girl was found who believed like Lady Angela, that the most attractive age of man is between 30 and 40. “There :is no doubt in my mind that a man is more fascinating when he is’ a man of the world than when he is| qult a boy,” said this little dark eyedl girl.
