WARNING TO PREPARE FOR BOLL WEEVIL FIGHT ISSUED That the farmers of Georgia ,are making little preparation for fighting the boll weevil this year, and that indications pointed to a large infesta tion from this pest was the statement of F. C. Ward, cotton specialist ot the State College of Agriculture, in a discussion of the boll weevil situa ton last week. “It is true that we had only a few weevils last year,” stated Mr. Ward, “and that many farmers made satis factory crops of cotton without hav ing made any fight on the pest. The reasons for this condition were that we had very few boll weevils to go into winter quarters in the fall of 1923; that in January of last ye -r all parts of the state had weather cold enough to kill most of the wee vils, and that last summer was an un usually dry one. “Conditions this year ar e different. We had more wevils going into hi bernation last fall than in the fall of 1r23 in nearly every section of the state and no part of the state has had weather cold enough to kill boll weevils during the past winter. This means that we will have a great many more weevils coming out of hibernation than came out last sum mer. Of course, it is impossible to foretell whether We will have anoth er dry summer, but it is not likely that it will be as dry as last season. “Cotton can be made in spite of the weevil if a vigorous and intelli gent fight is made. A committee of farmers, business men and scientists from the Association of Southern Ag ricultural Workers has studied all the boll weevil control measures used in the South for the past two years. This committee recommends poison ing with calcium arsenate. If there are weevils in the bud of the cotton before squares appear, the committee recommends mopping with molases calcium arsenate mixture or dustin'? with calcium arsenate. For lat poisoning only the dust is recommen 1 ed. PURE BRED SEED AS IMPOR TANT AS PURE BRED LIVE STOCK Tests conducted by the State Col lege of Agriculture with cotton va rieties have shown that pure and se lected cotton seed produce $lO to S4O worth more of seed and lint per acre than the common gin run see 1 of what w'as originally the same va riety. The conditions under which the tests have been carried out were identical, with the exception that on.* variety, was pure selected seed and the other was from the common gin run. Differences in the returns from such plantings have been in sonic cases as much as $75 per acre, which is attributed entirely to the quality* of the seed used. The only expendi ture necessary' to have obtained the increased return would have be r about $2.00 per acre for the differ ence in ti e cost of the seed, it is said. Further tests have shown that some varieties are adapted to cer tain soils and climatic conditions while others are not. For instance, the average yields ofl College No. 1 and a strain of Cleveland during t’’e past four years at the College Exper iment Station, valued at last season prices, have returned over SSO per acre more than other prominent va rieties. In these cases, pure seed were used of all varieties in the test. In view of these results farmers are . advised to consult the nearest experiment station in regard to the variety best suited to their soil and climatic conditions.

Call C. E. Ada Da tioLviHo, Secretary Loan Commuted Th is Week By Arthur Brisbane WAKING UP AGAIN WOMAN CHANGES THE MOVIES TODAY BOBBED HAIR HEADACHES The War Department, rubbing its eyes and waking up a little, or ders eighty-five flying machines, made in the United States. For ten machines by the Curtiss com pany $250,000 will be paid, and for seventy-five from the Douglas com pany $883,000, about. That’s a start, and, multiplied by a hundred, it would give the country a good beginning for an air fleet. Fortunately Henry Ford and his son Edsel B. Ford are in the air craft field. They will let us know what a flying machine ought to cost, and something about the theory that the “flying life” of an aeroplane engine is only about 100 hours. The Fords will give you an engine that, without expensive renewal of parts, will fly around the world ten times. They don’t believe in an engine as short lived as an ice cream cone. Just as the virtuous complain that women leave nothing to the imagination, they suddenly decide to cover up again. “Dress is to be more subtle” this season than in other seasons. That isn’t saying much, for there is nothing subtle about a lady barebacked to her waist in the evening, with a skirt above hei knees in the day time. c But fashion really means to re form for the moment. Arms that have been naked from the top o i the shoulder down, looking in some mottled cases like a butchei shop exhibit, are now to be cov ered with "soft mysterious veil ing.” Thanks for that, with or without the mystery. And shawls of brilliant colors, worn “to re veal porsonaUtv.” ’''ill cover up almost everythin;. • Thus again wt team that it i- always darkest before dawn. Women go just so far none di rection, then turn around and go the other way, that’s their charm, b Clothiers gathered in solemn conclave decide that the “real gen tleman'’ must have a different necktie for every shirt, thus “demonstrating his artistic taste and his exclusiveness.” Exclusive ness, doubtless, is desirable. But if each young American, for each fancy shirt and .necktie that he would like to have, would develop a real working idea, the country would be better off than with every necktie factory working full blast. A man known only by his clothes belongs in the parrot house. Twenty-one years ago about 250,000 people went once a week to the moving pictures. The price of admission was actually five cents. Now between seventeen and twenty-two millions go to see the moving pictures regularly, and the prices run up to three dollars a seat. Enterprises grow rapidly in the United States when people become really interested. If your friend has a bad cold, be polite, smile, bpw r , say “I never saw you looking better,” but don’t shake hands. . That is the advice of Dr. Sund wali, of Michigan University. Influenza is spread by handshak ing. You get the germs from your friend's hand, transfer them to your handkerchief and then to your nose. Handshaking is foolish and ar chaic, anyhow, as foolish as Indians rubbing noses. Primitive man stretched out his right hand to show there was no knife in it, and to reassure the stranger. That’s hardly necessary now. "The shingle headache,” or “bobbed hair neuralgia,” has ar rived, and was inevitable. Silly women, not content to cut their hair short, actually allow the bar ber to shave the back of the neck, uncovering that part of the body most sensive to cold, tlxe little hollow at the base of the skull. Cut your hair that way, then motor with your back to the driver, and you have found the short cut to acute neuralgia and pneumonia. At Council Bluffs, Jasper Mc- Donald, negro, twenty-seven years old, pleads guilty to criminal assault, and within an hour is sentenced to life imprisonment. That is better than a lynching because of the effect on public opinion and respect for law. There is, unfortunately, the possibility of escape. STATEMENT OF THE OWNER.

HOWELL COBB, Referee. Athens, Ga. March 31 1925 Blinding Headaches “For about twenty years,” says Mr. P. A. Walker, a well known citizen of Newburg, Ky., “one of our family reme dies has been Black-Draught, the old reliable. . . I use it for colds, biliousness, sour stomach and indigestion. I w y as subject to headaches when my liver would get out of order. I would have blinding headaches and couldn’t stoop about my work, just couldn’t go. I used Thedford’s BLACK-DRAUGHT and it relieved me. “About eight years ago my wife got down with liver and stomach trouble. .. We tried all week to help her,. . . but she didn’t get any better. One day I said to the doctor, ‘I believe I will try Black- Draught, it helps my liver.’ He said that I might try it and to follow directions. She was nauseated and couldn’t eat or rest. She be gan taking Black-Draught and in two days she was greatly Improved and in a week she was up.” ' Try Black-Draught. It costs only one cent a dose. Sold everywhere. p
