If troubled with weevils apply early one application on entire crop. Then apply again where weevils are in a week to ten days. You may have to apply four times during the season to control; you will have to be the judge of how often, for you must keep the pest down. Apply early ii\, the morning, late af ternoon or at night. You want the dew to hold the poison on. Dixie Brand Calcium Arsenate In 1920 we told a half million pounds Dixie Brand Calcium Arsenate, and are expecting this year to Bell more than we did last. Calcium Arsenate is not patented, but is a chemical com pound evolved by years of experiments and the expenditures of much money by our U.S. Entomology Department. After its worth was proven then it was that the great chemical manufacturers began making it for commercial use. This is our third year as manufacturers distributors, and we have many testimonials from farmers, and have acquired much information of benefit in controlling this pest and will gladly give it to you. Application —Calcium Arsenate is a very fine powder and should be applied by dusting machines. We recommend the Feeny Two-Row One-Mule Duster, retails for $65.00; Feeny Hand Duster, $18.00; Springfield Hand Duster, $9.60. Dis count to merchants.

EXPENSES OF OPERATING THE STATEHIGHWAY A Clear-Cut Statement Made Public Showing Just How Money Is Be ing Spent to a Total of Eighteen Millions. Atlanta Ga., June 26.—The following statement dealing with overhead ex pense of the state highway department, progress of construction on the state highway system, and reasons necessi tating bridge construction, was issued today by the state highway board for the information of the members of the legislature and the public in general: “What percentage of- the total high way funds handled by the state high way department has been consumed in overhead expense? “What progress has been mode by the highway department in constructing the proposed state highway system? “What was the necessity for building large concrete bridges in various parts of the state? “These three questions are being asked by members of the legislature, who naturally are desirous of obtaining the most thorough economy in the state's finances, and at the same time are anxious for the state highway sys tem to be carried forward as rapidly as possible with the funds available from the various sources. “Not only the members of the legis lature but the public as well are en titled to an answer to these questions, hence this statement by the state high way board presenting the facts. "The state highway department was created by act of the legislature at the session of 1919. The d:partment com>- menced to function on January 1, 1920. It has been at work, therefore, about eighteen months. “During that period the department has handled in round figures a total of $18,000,000, counting construction al ready completed and construction let to contract. Of this amount, the state motor vehicle fund has constituted not more than 16 per cent. The balance has come from the federal government and the counties of Georgia. One of the first things done by the department was to make available for immediate ex penditure on Georgia roads the accu mulated funds which has been appor tioned to this state by the foderal gov ernment, but which had not been ob tained'for the reason that Georgia had no highway department, fully organized and authorized to transact business, it was impossible to obtain the federal funds apportioned to the state. "The overhead expense of handling the above-stated total of $lB 000,000 will figure less than 6 per cent. This com pares favorably with the most econom ically administered state highway de partments in the entire United States. It is considerably less than the over head expense of a majority of the state highway departments, and only one state shows a smaller overhead, and it is only a fraction of 1 per cent smaller. The overhead expense of the Georgia department is smaller than the over head allowed by railroad engineers for railroad conslruction, and is smaller than the standard overhead of 7 per cent for architectural design and su pervision in building construction. “These facts, we believe, afforded a complete and conclusive answer to the question of overhead expense “As to progress of construction on the proposed state highway system: The system, as projected, will consist of 4,800 miles of highway linking to gether every county seat in the state with not less than two main roads ra diating from each. In eighteen months, since- the department commenced to function, it has been able to complete, or get under construction 1,200 miles of the state system. This is far better than we expected at the start. To have launched in einghteen months one fourth of the entire system without a state bond issue is a remarkable and gratifying record, we believe. It is sur passed only by the states which have had state highway departments in full operation for several years. “Not only this, but the work has been conducted simultaneously in all con gressional districts, as the law requires, and has embraced 112 of the 165 coun ties of the state, which is the very best evidence to prove that the distribution of the funds has been general and state-w'ide, and has not been confined to any favored localities. In this con nection, also, it should be kept in mind that the state motor vehicle fund was only 16 per cent of the above-mentioned total of $18,000,000 The counties them selves have supplied in round figures about $7,000,000 for the building of this 1,200 miles of the state highway sys tem and necessarily this has deter mined the location of the work to a large extent. “Having thus completed or let to con tract one-fourth of the entire system in eighteen months, the highway de partment is planning now, if author ized by the legislature, to take over im mediately for maintenance the remain ing 3,600 miles of the state highway system; and by means of maintenance thoroughly organized an dscientific, to put In serviceable condition in all wea ther the entire 3,600 miles, and to fol low maintenance with pavement as rapidly as the funds available from the various sources will permit. This plan, we believe, will enable our people to obtain from the state highway system the maximum of Immediate use and benefit in the shortest possible time, these benefits to be multiplied as pave ment follows maintenance. "Third, as to bridge construction: It has evidently seen. .1 to some observ ers, not knowing a., he facts, that the state highway department was build ing more bridges than roads. In point of fact, none of the state’s money, i. e., none of the motor vehicle fund, has been expended for bridge construction, but all of the bridges have been built at the expense of the counties on the federal government. They are all, how ever, located on state highway roads, hence they are links in the state sys tem, and their construction at the ex pense of the counties and the federal government was an immense contribu tion to the state system. Without these bridges, and others to come later, some of the most important and heavily trav eled links of the entire state system would be cut apart. Nature located the streams of Georgia, and nature's loca tion cannot be changed where bridges are concerned. “We believe these facts bear directly upon the questions above enumerated. We hap they will be read and remem bered by every citizen of Georgia who is interested in the highway movement. (Signed) “CHARLES M. STRAHAN, "Chairman. “R. C. NEELY. “S.

NEOSHO PLAN’S TRADE BUILDING RESULTS TOLD Advertising Convention Lauded Same Plan as Carried Out in Cartersville Monday. Atlapta, Ga., June 23.—A complete lack of Jealousy and unfriendly compe tition marks the conduct of the mer chants of Neosho, Mo., toward each other, said A. C. McGinty, a merchant of that city and one of the originators of the “Neosho Plan” of business ex tension, addressing a conference'of the community advertising section of the convention Monday. He said, in part: "The most important result of the plan Is the development of the co-oper ative community spirit. There is a spirit of good feeling between \he town country people, the value of which is hard to estimate. “Another important result of the plan is the co-operation of the merchants in Neosho. The spirit of Jealousy has en tirely disappeared from this town. When anew merchant opens a store here he is welcomed Into our council and assui-ed we will work with him and not against him.” The Neosho plan hag enabled mer chants of Waynesboro, Pa., to create additional “Saturdays" so far as trade is concerned, turning Mondays, usually the slowest day of the week, into such busy occasions that visitors to the town often ask if it is circus (lay. Robert It. Free, secretary of the Chamber of Commerce of Waynesboro, told about the town's experience. Big Sales Result. _ A merchant in a small Tennessee city sold 400 pounds of coffee in a single day j because he and other merchants, with the co-operation of bankers and others, adopted the co-operative plan for l ringing new trade to town, G. G. Fos l.ett, secretary of the Coulter Lumber Company, Clarksville, Tenn.. said. "Our out-of-town business has grown to such proportions that the L. & N. has put on anew train to bring our trade in from sixty miles to the south west, and a s-mtall branch line connec tion is held in Clarksville an hour each sales day to give people an opportunity to complete their purchases and gather up their bundles.” Adverse business conditions, result ing from the fact the community relies upon cotton to a large degree, would have forced some business men of Cam den, Ark., out of business except for the operation there of the Neosho plan, said C. A. Doak, secretary of the Chamber of Commerce of Camden. "Camden is located in the hard hit cottdn-raising country and we know that this plan could not have been started at a more adverse time “However, every merchant who has placed his whole heart in this plan and is giving actual bargains on sales days is reaping big returns and becoming more enthused each sales day. “Upon the other hand, we find that some merchants have never grasped the spirit of the plan and simply advertise some specials to fill up advertising space. They are not receiving benefit from the plan. Merchants Friendly. "There has been a great difference, manifested in the feelings of the mer chants towards each other. A more friendly spirit of co-operation exists than ever before.” “One of the strongest elements of the Neosho plan for trade building is the holding of meetings at the homes of farmers,” said'C. E. Buehner, of Ne osho. “Here the merchant meets his farmer friends for a social evening, -no business is solicited and the club dispenses with as much of the routine as possible, bringing only such business before the club members as is absolutely neces sary, after which the farmers and their friends are given an opportunity to talk. Criticism on the merchants’ ad vertising and business methods are asked, names are not mentioned, only the circumstances related and the far mer is requested to suggest a better way. Many splendid suggestions have come from these meetings and it cer- July Fourth Celebration July 2nd and 4th Southeastern Fair Grounds-Atlanta Auto, Motorcycle, and Horse Races Fireworks, Band 3 i S Two Pitt nf v t loa^fia—MMirtlii .This SUGAR AD TAKES THE PLACE Of Atco’s ‘Tote ‘Em Home’ ' fPRICE LIST This Week.

Clubs who contemplate establishing this method of co-operation sales days and others, too, especially in the smaller communities, should right now plan on having at least part of their summer meetings in the country." G. R. Lowe, of Neosho, one of the 1 originators of the Neosho plan, and ac tively engaged in helping communities put it into effect, said, In assuming his duties as chairman of the meeting: “The Neosho plan is one of co-opera tive effort for the betterment of rela tions between the farmers themselves; for extension of retail trade into terri tory not now being cultivated by the particular town in question, and to build a better understanding between the business man behind the counter and the business man behind the plow." j Piles Cured in 6 to 14 Days Druggists refund money if PAZO OINTMENT fails ‘ to cure itching.

PRESERVING EGGS WITH LIME If water glass is not obtainable, lime may be used for preserving eggs, say specialists of the United States Depart ment of Agriculture. It is not consid ered as good as water glass, as in some instances eggs preserved by this meth od have tasted slightly of lime, although at other times limewater has proved en tirely satisfactory. To preserve with lime, dissolve two pounds of unsiaked lime in a small quantity of water, and dilute with five gallons of water that has previously been boiled and cooled. Allow the mix ture to stand until the lime settles, then pour off and use the clear liquid. Place clean, fresh eggs in a clean earthenware crock or jar, and pour the clear lime water into the vessel until the eggs are covered. At least two inches of the solution should cover the top layer of eggs.
