I The war department has ruled that all fraternal orders will be allowed to operate at the camps. This is right and proper. With American soldiers in the trenches two having sacrificed their lives, four more wounded and a dozen captured, it is time to silence all opposition to the conflict and present a solid front to the enemy. . Billy Sunday should be proud of his critics. It's remarkably strange how some fellow who has never done anything for the uplift of humanity himself, likes to impugn the motives of the man who is really doing some thing. Senator Ha'dwick made a speech at Meigs last Saturday, the county of his birthplace, and though the county had been broadcasted with handbills and has a voting population of 2800, less than 300 people heard him; and if reports be true, less than fifty ot these were Hardwick men. Hon. W. J. Harris lias definite ly decided to make the race for the Senate to succeed Senator Hard .vick. With his record and loyalty to the administration and his wise administration of the affairs of, the Federal Trade Commission, we predict that he will prove that he is more than a match tor the man who boasted of his allegiance to the adnin- istration and has done all in his power to retard its success. EXTENSION SPELLS WHAT TO Y00 Ten ytears ago last month extension work began in Georgia with the ap pointment of five men for county dem onstration work and since that time its growth has been so marvelous and its scope so broadened until today few people realize the meaning of the w r ord extension in Us broadest sense. Forty women and forty-two men have been added to the force of coun ty demonstration agents under the war emergency measure recently pass ed and at present the State College of Agriculture has 100 women and 110 men working actively to help the farm er and his family in the interest of better agriculture. Every county in the state has the services of an agent. The extension division is working In co-operation with the Federal Food Administration and every effort is be ing made to plact Georgia in the forefront in maximum crop production mil food conseprattyk -- -p..- , McCarley’s City Mail Boxes Lunch Boxes Hair Brushes Shoe Brushes Book Satcels Enamel Buckets Lamps Egg Beaters Boy’s and Men’s Caps Men’s Collars Clocks Cups and Saucers Dental Cream Glass CuUmi-s Dippers Dolls Dusters Flags Tinware Lamp Glubes Graters Giaphophones \ 11 Ne-ales Hosiery Harps Coat Hangers Handkerchiefs Pocket KnivuS Butcher “ Kodaks and Films Mirrors Musical Strings Floor Mops Sewing Machine Needles Mobil Oil Gasoline Pictures and Frames Peroxide Clothes Pins Pipes Pocket Books Post Cards Po,:corn Poppers Syrup Pitchers Face Powder Toilet Paper Crepe ‘ ‘ Shelf ” Polish Fire Pokers Shovels Curtain Rods “ Scrim Ribbons Rugs Key Rings Stationery Soaps Arm Bands Shoe String's Shirts Suspenders Sifters Spoons Neckwear Thread CLASSIFIED ADS Money to Loon on Farms I can lend money on improved farm lands cheaper than any one else in the county.

Stalk destruction should be begun by October 15th and pushed just as rapidly as possible; for it is- the most important single thing that can be done in effectively fighting the weevil, says State Entomologist E. Lee Worsham. Proven By Results Results this year show, Mr. Wor sham states, that where stalks were destroyed early last fall, and where other instructions were followed in the spring, growers made a good crop of cotton in spite of the boll weevil. Dr. W. D. Hunter, cotton expert of the United States Bureau of Ento mology, says: “Fall destruction of weevils, (by destroying the stalks,) Insures a crop for the following sea son." The five following reasons are given for the important fall destruction of cotton plants: Feeding Fern». Ferns should be fed once every two to four weeks with dilute nitrate of soda solution, very dilute ammonia water, manure leachings, prepared plant food, or ground bone and wood ashes. * __ for each plant in the are killed outright. 2. Many more weevik'?. that are in the immature stages- u wietimes as many jfs- a hundred ' - <uach plant in the fieitl, are also killed. 3. TVie few adult weevils escaping will beSveakened by starvation. Most of th^H^will be too weak to pass through ,the winter. 4. The development of the late broods; -which furnish the vast ma jority of weevils that pass through tho winter, is cut off immediately. 5. Destruction of the infested plants with the weevils facilitates fall or early winter plowing, which is al ways good in cotton raising. Importance of Seed Selection. One of the next most important things after fall stalk destruction, is careful seed selection, about which tho department has already given advice in the state press. The use of good seed, and of pedigreed seed where ob tainable and the destruction of stalks in the fall, are the two most import ant items in boll weevil control. Every farmer should be assured as to the quality of his seed for next season. Any who are interested should write to the Georgia State Board of Ento mology, State Capitol, Atlanta, Ga., for bulletin No. 46 on seed varieties, and No. 47 on controlling the boll weevil. These will be of material help. Discouraging.
