This ls a danger, hardly to he termed lin m burnt as yet, ard still it is a fore gone conclusion that the boll weevil will reach South Carolina and" An derson county within thc next few years. "The hoi! weevil ha.- about 2f.O mil es to travel before it reaches the South Carolina border and at Its av erage vate of migration this will re quire about five years,"- said B. II. Bawl, chief of the dairy division, bureau of animal industry, United States department of agriculture, In an address on the boll weevil deliver ed before the South Carolina Bankers' association recently In Charleston. On this premise Mr. Bawl developed plann for the people of the State by wb n they can better cope with the situa tion when the boll weevil appears and reduces the cotton crop about 50 per cent. He told of the ravages in other States and drew a parallel ot similar conditions for this State. His remedy ls that the farmers learn to grow other crops br to raise live stock and that thc bankers cooperato with them by lending them money to build up these new ventures. Mr. Bawl traced the gradual ad; vance of the boll weevil from th? time that it first appeared in the Brazos river region of Texas, and showed by statistics tho devastation that thia little animal has done. In Louisiana, for Instance In ,1904, the cotton crop was 'over 1 ,ooo,000 hales, but after the boll weevil had fully entered tho State tho drop decreased to less than 250,000 bales, and since then it baa not exceeded 400,000 balea per annual. But worse are thc figures for ten 'aunties in tho southern part of Mississippi. In 1906 they produced an aggregate of 262, 436 hales, which waa reduced in 1 '912 to 38.133 bales. -Speaking of the change in financial conditions due to this astounding de crease in cotton production. Mr. Bawl said; "Since cotton has become unproflt > able, why do thc farmers not raine liye stock? The answer ls, they do not know how to conduct, a live stock business and they have no money to get into it. The bankers are unwill ing to lend money for live stock pro duction, because they know that tho farmers are without experience In this business and therefore loans for j that purpose would bc unsafe. "You." he continued, "the hankers of South Carolina, have in your con trol the most^powerful single factor for dealing with this most perplexing problem. It ls the $37,000,000 that you lend annually to the farmers of the state for cotton prod notion. You cnn require as a condition of these loans that a small amount of them, say 10 per cent., be devoted to the production of money crops other than cotton. Yo'i can Increase their loans slightly with the stipulation that the increase and 10 per cent, nf the loan desired be used for something other than cotton." Air. Kawl then went on to show how the farm demonstration agent would give any farmer aid in carrying out some nf the plans of raising grain crops, cows, hogs, mules and other things, to take the place of tho coton. "The approaching boll weevil," ho concluded, "will bring to thc State the greatest economic problem that has confronted lt In the last half century. It must not be considered the merchant's and the banker's prob j ; On Can you co thing m ? i M f*f?? Cfc Wini the farmer's problem alone, for it ls lemmas well; in fact, every business in thc state will he affected by ir.. The task is difficult and the time is short, but there is a chance here for a great piece of constructive work for South Carolina and a chance for a great and good work for mankind." A SAU DEATH.
