DUSTING DEMONSTRATIONS GIVE EXCELLENT RESULTS With the beginning of cotton pick- | ing, the dusting demonstrations con- < ducted on seven farms about Abbe- ( ville are showing excellent results 1 from dusting with arsenate.' Mr. T. < M. Cheatham, Manager of the South ern Cotton Oil Company, who is in 1 charge of the work issues an invi- < tation to all the farmers of Abbe- i ville County to visit the fields and ] examine the results for themselves. When given a careful examina tion on September 1st, the dusted areas showed 25 to 75 per cent more bolls on the dusted than on the un- i dusted arears and the dusted areas showed less than 5 per cent of the bolls punctured while the undusted showed from 15 to 60 per cent of the bolls punctured. Each field has signs showing which section is dusted and which was left as a check plot so that anyone can visit the fields at any time and study the results for themselves. Mr. Cheatham will be glad to take parties of farmers or others,interest ed in cotton growing to the fields and explain the demonstrations to them at any time if they will apply to him at the oil mill. The demonstrations are located on the farms of R. B. Ferguson, G. E. Mann, McKenzie & Johnson, W. F. Nickles, W. H*. Long, W. A. Ste venson and Dr S. G. Thomson. Those of Ferguson, Mann, McKenzie & Johnson, Stevenson and Long are conveniently located on highways where they can be examined in a few minutes by anyone passing in an automobile. The farmers of Ab beville can readily determine in a few minutes spent in any of these fields whether cotton can be raised successfully under boll weevil con 4-V? littA -P rtolni 11m uii/iuuo mui uic uoc vi senate. ai" SECRETARY DAVIS IN FAVOR OF BEER Chicago, Sept, 2.?James J. Davis secretary of labor, announced a stand in favor of beer for steel mill workers in a chapter of the autobio graphy of his life, which is now on the press. As a preface to his observations on that subject Secretary Davis likened the temperature in the tin mills in the summer tiime to the fourth of July in Abyssinia. "Water doesen't agree with the stomach as well as does beer," is one sentence in his autobiography Secretary Davis quotes himself dir ectly in conversation with what he termed an "uplifter." In another chapter the secretary I writes: "Capitalism, as the communists . call it, is an imperfect system. But I it is the only system that has ban . ished famine Under communism and feudalism there was hunger. "Nature is using communists, r slackers, sick men and fools to un ; d ermine the race that has con quered her. The man who says, quit work and divide our cake and eat it I is opening the way for nature to strike suddenly with a famine. "The man who advocates 'one big . strike to destroy our capital is the secret agent of starvation."
