TRIMMING A BONNET
There is a millinery shop in New
York which guarantees its hats
to go oil! of style. With every pur
clmse goes tlie understanding that in
five or ten years from now the lumnct
bought today will be just as attractive,
just ns much admired and even more
in vogue.
It is the Salvation Army “Millinery
Shop,” located at 120 West Fourteenth
Street, New York city, in which estnh
iislnnent every bonnet which enters
the tenement houses, rescue homes,
orphnnages, nurseries or slum settle
merits first secs the light of day. And
the shop does x rushing business. Three
hundred bonnets each week are trim
nied, boxed, sent out to all parts of the
eountry and started on their mission
of spreading cheer and hope to every
corner of ihe United States.

COMMISSIONER OF LABOR, H. M.
STANLEY, WARNS OFFICERS OF
LAW TO BE VIGILANT AND
PROSECUTE VIOLATORS.
State Commissioner of Labor, Hal.
M. Stanley, has addressed the fol¬
lowing letter to the sheriffs, chiefs
of police, county policemen and
bailiffs of Georgia:
“There is every indication that
a great many laborers ai»e being
carried out of Georgia into other
states in violation of the Georgia
law. It is the usual method for a
white man to employ negro helpers
in securing this labor. Any person
securing labor or attempting to se¬
cure labor to be carried out of the
State in violation of the law can be
arrested on four counts for each of¬
fense as follows:
“First—For failing to register
with the ordinary as an emigrant ag¬
ent.
"Second- For failing to pay the
Tax Collector, in each county where
such person operates, a fee of $ 1 ,
000 . 00 .
“Third—For failing to apply for
license; give bond in the sum of $ 1 ,
000 . 00 , and to make monthly re¬
ports to the Department of Com¬
merce & Labor.
“Fourth- For failing to secure
license from the Department of Com¬
merce and Labor.
“At this time no person in Geor¬
gia is qualified to act as an emi¬
grant agent and any person, there¬
fore, who is transporting or attempt¬
ing to transport labor out of the
State is guilty of each of the of¬
fenses named above. Every laborer
secured and every attempt to secure
labor is a separate offense.
“Labor in Georgia is scarce and
is needed for our own use. We can¬
not spare a single person for use
outside the State. Our farms are all
being rapidly depleted and every a
vailable hand is needed on the farms
now. It is not only right and proper
under ordinary circumstances to ap¬
prehend these emigrant agents, hut
it is now a patriotic duty to put
every one of them in jail. I therefore
urge you to watch carefully and, if
any person is found endeavoring to
secure labor for use in other states,
to immediatly put such person un¬
der arrest and prosecute him to the
full extent of the law. I would be
glad if you will advise with me from
time to time relative to this matter.
Any aid I can give you will be cheer¬
fully rendered, and I earnestly re¬
quest your assistance in stopping the
exportation of our much needed la¬
bor. Any movement of labor should
be carefully watched. It is a fav
■rite practice for these agents to
purchase tickets for laborers from
one point in Georgia to another
'mint, and then at the latter point
to either buy tickets to the objec¬
tive point outside the State or to
nay cash fares to the conductor. If
any considerable number of labo¬
rers are moving from one point to
another in Georgia, it would be
wise to carefully investigate to see
if in reality the objective point is
lot outside the State.
“I would be glad if you will in¬
struct all of the men under you to
•arefully watch for infractions of
the law in this regard and ask the
(id of all other officers.
“Trusting that at any time I can
ie of any service you will call on

Very truly yours,

lONTGOMERY LARGE CENTER
OF STOCK YARD INDUSTRY
There has been built up at Mont

nat is probably doing more for Ala
ama and the Central South than any
institution of the South. Montgomery
vas wisely selected as the logicm
enter for the industry, for it is the

The average intelligent citizen of
his Section does not realize the tre
nendois investment and value of the
Union Stock Yards of Montgomery.
With a daily capacity of more than
fen Thousand hogs and sheep, five
husand cattle and three thousand
horses and mules, the people of the
Central South are no longer depen¬
dent upon the long haul to St.
Louis and Chicago, but here at home,
a few hours of the market, the
fy 11 market price can be had for all
stock.
Montgomery, through the activi¬
ties and facilities of the Union
Stock Yards, has not only become the
live Stock center of the Central
but is doing much to encour¬
the live stock industry in that

POISONING THE
BOLL WEEVIL
Extensive Trials Show That Cal¬
cium Arsenate Properly Ap¬
plied Is a Profitable Means of
Controlling the Boll Weevil—
Method Perfected by Govern¬
ment Experts.
C. A. Whittle Soil Improvement
Committee.
Calcium arsenate, the boll weevil
poison, was applied to more than
.100,000 acres of cotton in Mississippi.
Louisiana, Arkansas and Texas dur
ing the season of 1919, under the di
rection of government experts, The
results obtained lead them to state
that a saving of 500 pounds of seed
cotton to the acre were not an un¬
usual matter, and. in some cases, as
much as 1,000 pounds were protected
from the weevil.
These savings have been made at
an outlay of from $<>.00 to $10.00 pm
acie, which includes cost of materials
labor and reasonable charge for de
predation of machinery, the pric‘d
at which cotton is now selling this
would indicate that it is well worth
while to poison the boll weevil.
It is advised by those who lia ve pei*
fected this means of holding the wee
vil in check that the additional cost of
growing cotton should not he aseumod
on very low yielding acres, therefore
cotton should be grown on the better
laud and be fertilized so as to pro
duce maximum yields.
In combatting the weevil with poi
son. it is not possible to exterminate
it, hut the object is to control it so
that they will not destroy more squares
of the cotton than would naturally
shed This. it. has been found. can
he dprte, thus assuring the farmer
that he can grow a full crop under boll
weevil conditions.
When to Begin Poisoning
Poison is not applied until about
10 to 15 per cent of the squares have
been punctured. The time to begin
can lie determined by going into the
field in various places, counting a
hundred squares taking all on each
plant, and if ten to fifteen out of
each 100 is destroyed, the spraying
can begin In large fields it ie fre
quently found that, the weevils be
gin near the woods. The poisoning
should begin there and need not be
put ail over the field until the in¬
festation lias extended to all parts e(
How Frequent »nd Often to Poieon
It. has been found that if the spray
ing begins when about 10 per cent of
the squares are punctured and if re¬
peated every four days that as a rule
three sprayings are all that is uece*
sary. if weather interferes and the
applications are more than four days
apart, then more of them must be
made.
Amount Required Per Acre and Cost
From five to seven pounds of cal¬
cium arsenate are required to thor¬
oughly dust an acre. At the present
time the cost of calcium arsenate is
25 cents per pound. With experi¬
ence in applying the poison, and a
good machine, five pounds of cal¬
cium arsenate can be made to do the
work satisfactorily.
Applied When Dew la On
Since the weewil is poisoned by
drinking dew which has been poison¬
ed, it is necessary to apply the poi¬
son while the dew Is ou the plants.
It is customary to put it ou at night,
using good lights witli which to see
how to do the work.
Machines Required
Unless a fainter can get a desirable
machine, it is better not to undertake
to use poison. The calcium arsenate
must be forced into the atmosphere
from a machine that will form a dust
cloud. Tills dust will settle on all
parts of the plant.
Three types of machines are to be
a hand gun that i« suilaiiie for
twenty-five acres and under, cart
and power sprays for larger
Various types of machines
tested by Professor (load and as
at Tallulah,- La., and they will
information as to which ar$ sat¬
In thie connection, these
men will also analyze
of calcium arsenate without
to see if they conform tq spec
It is essential that the inu
conform exactly to specifier
A few simple precautions are all
is necessary to prevent harm to
animate and operators of the
such as muzzling the horses
the men washing before eating
If Calcium Arsenate is not all usd
season it can be carried over the
and be just as good for use then
does not deteriorate if kept in a
place.
Some lew farmers have tried ea:
arsenate and claim to have ol
no desirable results, A mini
of these failures have been iuve:.
and almost invariably it hu
found that the reason they faile<
that they did not follow instructions
It is not considered advisable for a
of farmers to co-operate in btfy
a large machine to apply the poi
for the reason that the period when
must be applied is brief, and
weather interferes to some extent,
would be found that all the farmer
want the use of the inachim
the same time.
