A DEMONSTRATION WILL BE
GIVEN BY DAWSON COTTON
OIL CO. ON THURSDAY.
The Dawson Cotton OQil Co. has
arranged for a demonstration of chlo
rine gas as a boll weevil poison to
be held on Thursday afternoon at the
farm of Mr. Ardelle Smith, west of
Dawson, \
- Chlorine gas was made use of in
large quantities during the war as one
of the many poison gases employed
by the combatants.. Chlorine is an
element always occurring in nature in
a state of combination and large
algou.nts of the gas were liberated by
chémists during the war by the ac
tion of sulphuric acid and manganeze
dioxide for use of the allied forces.
The war, of course, left a large sup
ply on hand, and it has been ascer
tained by chemists that the gas may
be used to exterminate boll weevils
successfully,
Experts will be present and apply
‘the gas late in the afternoon, as it is
not feasible to use chlorine in the day
time, due to its action in combination
with the sun. However, when applied
in this manner there is no danger to
anything but the boll weevil. Chlorine
being two and a half times as heavy
‘ase air will, of course, form a vapor
close to the ground over the cotton
plants, thus insuring prompt action
to the pests.
The Dawson Cotton Oil Co. is hay
ing this gas demonstrated in order to
help the farmers of this section arrive
at the best possible way to extermi
nate the cotton pest, and doubtless a
large crowd will attend the exhibi
tion.

At a meeting of the directors of the
City National bank on Tuesday the
surplus was increased to $lOO,OOO,

000, with undivided profits of $20,000.
This increase of surplus to the above

prosperity of Terrell county.
Never before in the history of
local banking circles have the differ
ent banks been on a better and firmer
basis, and with a good crop in the
fall and the price of cotton remuining}
high there is no doubt but that Daw
son and Terrell county’s bank clear
ings will rise to a new high level.
