COWETA FARMERS WILL EXPERI-
MENT WIH BOLL WEEVIL
POISON.
A number of Coweta farmers will ex
periment this month with a boll weevil
poison said to have been used with
excellent roBults in Southeast Gorgia Inst
yoar—notably in Washington and Lau
rens counties. Ono of tho most exten
sive plnntoi's in that section is Mr. Harry
Barrett, of Washington county, a brother
of Mr. E. R. Barrett, of this city. At tho
instance' of Mr. T. A. McMakin, one of
our progressive young farmers, Mr. E.
R. Bnrrott wrote his brother and re
quested full Information concerning the
poison mixture reported ns having boon
used so successfully in that section hist
your, ami in h totter dated Juno 27 tho
latter ropiled ns follows—
Tho formula is composed of tho fol
lowing ingredients; Two pounds of cal
cium arsenate, two quarts of, water, and
ono gallon of molasses, (Cuba molnssfs
preferred.) Mix water ami nrsonato
thoroughly boforo adding molnHses, con
tinuing to stir until you got n smooth
mixture. Then toko n rngjbout 4 inches
witlo and 6 inches long, wrap around n
small stick of Biifflclont length, to roach
tho cotton without stooping. Let about
half of tlm rag extend over end of stick.
Put tho poison in a bucket of conven
ient size to carry, and, with the mop-
stick in tho othor hand, walk along tho
cotton rows, touching each stalk near
tho top—doesn’t matter where, just so
it is on tho plant. Two or three drops
of'tho mixture to the stalk is sufficient.
One dipping of tho mop in the solution
should, cover a good distance, depending
on how well tho mop carries the poison.
In opon weather tho solution should bo
applied every tlireo weeks, and also im
mediately after a rain hard onough to
wash It off. The main thing is to look
cnrhfully to the mixing of the materials.
Unless this is dono thoroughly tho woevlls
will not take to It readily. Tho arsonato
is bitter, and unless well mixed with mo
lasses they won’t oat It,, or else eat tho
molasses that has but llttlo arsonato in
it and live right 1 along. Another thing
to watch is to see that your hands are
careful not to waste tho mixture in tak
ing tho mop out of the bucket and put
ting more on the plant than is-necossary,
Two or throe drops will kill a thousand
woovIIb. This treatment should be con
tlnuod until September. Mako tho liiHt
application when the plant begins to take
on second growth, ami you will have no
weoyllH left on your farm wliert fall
comes. Tho quantity of mixture named
In tills letter should bo sufficient to go
ovor threo or four acroB. Stick to the
formula givon above and watch results,

Some weeks ago the County Board of
Education decided I to consolidate the
Turin, Sharpsourgi Longstreet, Bethel
and Bailey schools and erect a central
building midway between Turin and
Shuvppburg. The territory embraced in
these live school districts was according
ly merged into one largo district, which,
upon petition of nearly one hundred
white citizens residing in the territory
affected, was named Starr district in
honor of Hon. J. M. Starr, County Su
perintendent of Schools, to whose enter-
prise and efforts in unifying. Bcntiment
and bringing about the consolidation
they felt much credit was due. It was
proposed to Orect at a central point a
school building sufficiently large to ac
commodate all white children of schflol
age in the consolidated district, have _ it
fitted,, throughout with modern equip
ment, and provided with a faculty of
able and experienced teachers. The plans
provide for a substantial brick struct;
are, the building and equipment to cost
about $20,000. The Board of Education’
agreed to assume half of the eoBt, prp
vided the citizens of tho new district
would furnish the remainder. It was for
the purpose, of raising' theii; -pro ’rata- 1 of.
