Thousands of voluntary letters from women, tell ing of the good Cardui has done them. This is the best proof of the value of Cardui. It proves that Cardui is a good medicine for women. There are ne harmful or habit-forming drugs in Cardui. It is composed only of mild, medicinal ingredients, with no bad aiter-eifects. TAKE Right Variety And Good Seed Necessary In Fight Against Boll Weevil, Says Board of Entomology The Womans Tonic \ou can rely on Cardui. Surely it will do for you what it has done for so many thousands of other womenl It should help. “I was taken sick, seemed to be . . . ,” writes Airs. Mary E.Veste, of Madison Heights, Va. “I got down so weak, could hardly walk . . . just staggered around. ... I read of Cardui, and after taking one bot tle, or before taking quite all, I felt much belter. I took 3 or 4 bottles at that time, and was able to do my work. I take it in the spring when run down. 1 had no appetite, and I commenced eating. It is the best tonic I ever saw.” Try Cardui. Atlanta, August, (Special)—There is a big difference between improved cotton seed and just "cotton seed.” Experiments conducted by the Geor gia State Bo&.d of Entomology have proven beyond question that the dif ference in value is as great as that betYveen pure bred hogs, such as the Durocs and Berkshires, and the piney woods "razor-back.” Many farmers have learned the fnv portance of tills difference. They have found from actual experience, involv ing losses, that it is not safe to plant the ordinary varieties of cot-on seed. So -Important is this problem of seed selection, that the board feels ft must strongly urge every farmer to make effort this year to iniprovo his cotton seed by mass selection at least. In mass selection the best stalks are selected and picked togeth er. This cotton Is carefully ginned and the seed planted next year for the seed patch. Enough) stalks should be relected Co plant for a bale Or at j least half a bale. I Pedigreed Breeding I Then, a few farmers in each coun- ! ty should take up the work of pedi- ’ greed breeding or individual selection, j Under this plan a number of the best and most resistant plants are chosen and the seed of each plant saved to 1 itself. The next season a short row is planted from each stalk. Planted side by side, the opportunity is given for easy comparison, and ascertain ing which is the most resistant and has the strongest transmitting power. ! This is important to determine, for ! plants, like animals, transmit their good as well as their bad qualities to , their progeny. 1 The seed from the row showing the 1 greatest resistance to disease and the 1 greatest yield, is saved and planted next season in a multiplying patch. The seed from this in turn is saved, | and the following season as many acres as possible should he planted ' with it. Thus, from one stalk, in | three years, a very large quantity of seed may be secured. In individual selection great care must be need in securing the best, plants. It is ofte.n noticed that plants vary greatly in the same Held. Tn making selections study the folloAV- iug characteristics: Resistance to wilt, root.knot and anthracnose; fruit* fulness and earliness; percentage, length and strength of lint; type of plant and distribution of fruit on plant. Watch The Type Of Plant Stalks of the predominating type in the row or Held, should be chosen, if equally resistant and well fruited as ethers. Get the form of the ideal stalk well fixed in your mind, and look for it. Remember the type from year to year, and don’t change unless you should change to a different strain or seed variety. Select from stalks having long fruit ing l.mbs close to the ground, and \\i;ii joints close together. Get those with fewer large stalked branches, but with the fruiting branches most nu merous. As a rule it is best to select the plants that have most of the fruit on the lover part of the stalk, for these begin fruiting early. Maintain Li.o fruiting and resistant qutuT.'.'cb h y "running.” Do this both in the progeny rows and in the field. This means cutting out the diseased and stunted stalks about July l and August 1, so as to prevent crossing with the fruitful nnd resistant plants. Get The Right Variety Every farmer should begin by get ting the variety of cotton that he wishes to grow, the variety best adapted to his locality, and then stick to it. Write for Bulletin No. 40 of the Georgia State Board of Entomolo gy on "Cotton Variety Tests;” this will assist you in selecting your va riety. Selection and planting of the right variety for your locality, is halt the fight against the boll weevil. The board of entomology has gins both in Atlanta, and at Thomasville. ISend your individual seed selections to the board at either place, properly numbered and sacked, and they v.lll be ginned and returned to you Tree of charge. The per cent of lint, each stalk makes will be determined and marked on each sack. Send your seed In as soon as possible after the cot- ion Is picked, so that it. may be gin ned without delay. Address it to the Georgia State Board of Entomology, either Atlanta or Thomasville, which ever place is nearest you. Write also, for any other information you may wish.
