Weevils Found So Far. a few genuine boll weevils leen found in the cotton fields insofar as the County Agent 3en able to ascertain. Two were;?found on cotton plants about ?oks ago by S. L.

Cotton observed by tho writer all along the way to Columbia recently looked worse, if anything, than cot ton in Oconee and Anderson coun ties. It seemed that much land was abandoned, and many weeds flour ished in that which was supposed to bo worked. The wet weather seems to have been very general over a great part of the cotton belt. shall Oconee Have a Fair? ?It seems that all near-by counties have county falrB, and with the groat diversity of agriculture possible In Oconee, that we should have one also. Agriculture will be more di versified than ever with tho coming of the boll weevil, and that is one of tho strong points about fairs the actual products of the region may ho SEEN BY ALL. If action on the matter of having a fair is taken in time there aro plen ty of products for exhibition. J. S. Abbott, of Walhalla Route 1, has done some wonderful breeding work, and has a fine stallion to ex hibit. Coke S. Campbell, of Seneca Route 2, has a fino herd of registered Hol stein cattle which would also look good on exhibition. I. Fate Lee, of Walhalla Route 1, has an "All-Pure-Bred Farm," hav ing nothing put pure-bred 'Jersey cows, a pure-bred bull, pure-bred hogs, pure-bred chickens, and possi bly tho hound dogs are pure-bred. .Many other farmers in the county have fine pure-bred animals and also some wonderful crops to exhibit. WI 11 OH TOWN will work for the fair? There should bo a building guaranteed tho exhibitors, suitable livestock pavilions or arrangements, and a guaranty of sufficient prizes to bc awarded winners in each depart ment. In Hie matter of amusement there might ho a foot-hall game arranged. A carnival may not be needed, as there may not bo that much extra money to spend this fall. Gt*OWS Fino Strawberries. K. 1). McDonald, of Richland, ls probably ono of the most successful Strawberry growers in this section Of the State. Ho states that last year ho gathered $80.00 worth of the lus cious rod berries from' one-eighth of an aero, mu} ho will continuo ga Ul eling this year's crop until frost, The variety planted is a rare one, re sulting from n cross between a Can adian ami Western strawberry hy a larmer living near Easley.

On grapes and apples Bordeaux mixture should be used, the formula being 4-4-50, or in smaller quanti ties 1-1-12%, meaning one pound of quicklime, one pound of bluestone, 12% gallons of water. The lime and bluestone are gradually dissolved with one-half to one gallon of water each, and then diluted separately to 6 M gallons apiece, then poured to gether nt the same timo into a third vessel, stirring vigorously. Wooden or earthen vessels should bo used. The bluestone will dissolve better in warm water suspended in a sack. Do You Want Peas? Those persons wishing to buy some Clay peas now for sowing may group orders through the County Agent at a saving. A farmer in Alabama has several hundred bushels for sale at M*0 ^??e?fehelv -The freight -willi be'about 30 cents per ?bushel, ma*k-i lng the delivered cost about $1.80 per bushell. Any 1 person wanting | these peas should make check pay able to "Cowpeas Account," Bank of Walhalla, enclosing check with or der for the full amount. 'This should bo done at once. More peas should be sown this year than ever before. Many Cans Ordered. There should be no scarcity of canned foodstuffs in Oconee county next year, judging by the fact that a Westminster dealer recently order ed 40,000 cans-a solid carload to supply the canners' of the county. If these cans aro all used there should be a smaller amount of money to send out of the county next year for canned foodstuff. Geo. R. Briggs, County Agent. Civil Service Examinations Again.
