The Appropriation Act approved March 4, 1911, carried the following item: "For the establishment of a fish- cultural atatlon, including purchaae of site, construction of buildings and ponds, and equipment, at a point In the State of South Carolina to be se lected by the Secretary of Commerce and Labor, $25,000.” The Washington correspondent of The News and Courier says the his tory of that provision Is that in Feb ruary, 1911, when the sundry civil appropriation bill was before the ap propriations committee of the Sen ate, and the matter of confirming a similar provision frfT a'Hsh-trHrhor’ .u Minnesota was taken up, »«uuior Tillman said that he would not like to object to any measure In which his friend. Senator Nelson, of Min nesota, was Interested, but that he could not let this provision go through without objection unless something of the same kind should be done for South Carolina. The Senator explained that at sev eral previous sessions a blit for the «5tabllshment of a fish-cultural sta tion In South Carollha had been passed by either the House or the Senate, hut that on each occasion ’be measure failed because there was not concurrent action. As a result of Senator Tillman s remarks, the paragrai b just quoted was Inserted tn th« Act by the Senate committee md became law.

The Southern Railway Is conduct ing a campaign in the South to en able the farmers of the cotton belt - r - » to overcome the boll weevil. The campaign Is educational in Ita nature and it is planned to Introduce im proved cultural methods. President Finley, dlfccusslng the work recently, said: The primary purpose of the organ ization of the county culture depart ment by the railway companies which contribute to Its support was to co operate with farmers along the lines cf those companies In the territory along the advance of the Mexican cotton boll weevil for the adoption of'-Ahpse cultural methods recom mended by the late Dr. S. ▲. Knapp of the United Statea agricultural de partment, for growing cotton under boll weevil conditlona. Dr. Knapp also advised that It would be advan tageous to adopt those methods Inde pendently of the presence of the ii.il. iho ituulis of lue fiisi year’s work of our cotton culture depart ment have demonstrated the sound ness of his advice In all respects. "In s circular, under date of Feb ruary 12, 1912, prepared by Dr. W. 1). Hunter, the boll weevil expert of the bureau of entomology, sad Issued by Dr. L. O. Howard, chief of that bureau, with the approval of the sec retary of agriculture. It Is pointed out that the weevils were Use num erous in 1911, owing to adverse weather conditions, and that the In sect was exterminated In an area covering about 23,000 square miles iu the northwestern portion of Texas and the portion of Oklahoma, where conditlona were particularly unfav orable. Dr. Hunter shows that, not withstanding these conditlona, the in sect continued to spread to the north- xlssippl an d Alabama. He says the reduction in numbers in 1911 waa due to a combination of climatic In- tluenres which can only be expected to recur at infrequent intervals, and that, with the return of favorable seasons, the weevil will again multi ply. He urges, therefore, that It is t.ecessary for planters to continue • hejr fight against the weevil accord ing to the methods that have been recommended by tbe agricultural de partment. These are the methods advised by tbe Southern railway cot ton culture department. "it should be borne in mind that •-stablished and that the prize of se- 'be cultural methoda recommended l uring the location will not t>e of y the late Dr. Knapp, and advlaed < xtonsDe induatrlal value to the com- ')’ our cotton culture department ' mutilty securing It.
