THE BOLL WEEVIL AGAIN T ' Clemson College.?"Advice from rf any source to plow up or not to plow up cotton because of present heavy weevil infestation is "not dependable, n because there is no man who can adre vise you in advance," says Prof. A. lS P. Conradi, chief entimologist, in an?. swering inquiries on this subject, jt "The work of the cotton boll weey vdl is directly dependable on weather conditions. If the weather of June T_ and July as comparatively warm and n dry we may expect to make a cotton e crop so far as the weevil is con(r cerned. Abundance of wievil now is T no dndex of the loss that may be expected this season, because so far, the weevil has had every advantage and the cotton every 'disadvantage J On the other hand, if June and July w are comparatively wet, we may ex^ pect severe loss from the boll weevil, and we must remember that the >- average South Carolina weather conditions, especially over the southern k half of the state, are very favorable to weevil development. n "In this connection it may be L. said that during 1920 experiments [_ with poison in Georgia, Alabama and IfOuisiana showed gain notwithstanding adverse weather conditions while experimental work in' South L? . Carolina, where weather conditions J--? J. Ji- -1 J x. > - were ueciaetuy ,auwi?e vo pyisuoiiijj . showed no gains.

The most memorable were j The overflow of the Mississippi ill j April, 1912, with a loss of 500 lives j of destruction of $3,500,000 worth of property in scores of towns and j cities vin Louisiana, Mississippi, Arkansas ahd Tennessee. In Mairch, 1913, the Ohio and\ite ! tributaries overflowed with serious effects upon a large region, irifclud* dng the cities of Dayton, Hamilton, Zanesvlle, Columbu^ - and Cincinnati. ^.bout 460 lives were lost in all. The property ess exceeded $20,000,000. '! . More than 200 persons lost their lives in a flood which: overran the valley Qf^he San Luis Rey river in California in January, 1916. Thqj Bio Grande overflowed its banks following heavy rains in-. July, 1916, and several hundred persons perished, mostly on the Mexican side of the river. There were 75 deaths at*El Paso and hundreds were,made homeless. * % j The greatest American flood oc- < curred when virtually the entire city of Johnstown, Pa., was destroyed on ftfay 31, 1889, by the breaking of the Connemaugh dam just outside of it. The exact lo?9 of life was never determined bait reliable estimates placed the number of lives lost at about 2,500. A great part of the damage to Galveston in a teripfic hurricane of September, 1900, was done by water blo-sbi in from the Gulf of Mexico. More than 3,000 persons died and property worth $20,0,00,000 was destroyed. . 666 cure* Chill* and Fever. VARIETY TESTS WITH CORN Clemson College.?In -1900 the South Carolina Experiment Station began a series of corn variety tests at Clemson College. Later these tests were extended to the Pee Dee Station at Florence and the Coast Station at Summerville. The objects " - ? 1 .1 r. 01 tne experiments nave lkjcli, uiou, to determine which of the standard varieties most cdmmonly gro\m in this state are best adapted to soil and climatic condtiions, and secondly, to test new varieties which have - made exceptionally good showing in other states. The data obtained from these tests have been published by the Experiment Station as Bulletin 207, entitled "Variety Tests with Corn." The information enables the agronomy division to give the farmers of the state reliable advice regarding them erits of the different varieties and it is hoped to bring about the gradual elimination from the fields of the state . of a large number of inferior varieties. Comparative yields in 1920, for example, showed a wide difference in production per acre of the different varieties the highest yielding variety at Clemson College .making 62.2 bushels per acre the lowest 37.5 bushels. The difference of 25.1 bushels \. , ' ' /u--1 'Vi -,. - -jk." ?. between the highest and lowest yieldig varieties, due entirely to good seed of a superior variety, il- : lustrates the striking^ Importance of using seod of the best varieties. 1 I Beautiliil I ! jus i : * . i ? | j Fashion has dec [ I magic in combinat [ J cost in these totally \l * Youthful Ci E| Chine* Spor i > I * Beautiful! are these | J Chine Sport Suits.
