F~IGHT'l THE CABBAGE WORMi WITH ARtSENICALS Clemson Colege, April 27.-In spite of the fact that the cabbage worm is not difficult to control the annual loss from this lpest is $1,300, 000, or one-tenth of the value of the entire crop. Repeated experi mnents have showvn, says George P. Hoff man, Extension horticulturist, that i.ot only this pest but most other cabbage pests can be best con trolled by arsenate of lead and Paris green. If Paris green is used it may be applied wet or dry, preferaly as a spray, at the rate of one poundl to 50 gallons of water. Applications of this spray should be madle soon after plants are set and~ as often afterwards as necessary. Arsenate of lead is now rapidly taking the place of Paris green and other arsenicals, is preferable for many reasons andl has not increased in price as Paris green has. Ar senate of lead comes in powvder and paste form. Two pounds of the powder to 510 gallons of water or Bordeaux mixture should he used. Four pounds of the paste is needed to 50 gallon~s of water or Blordeaut. Applications of Paris geenn or.r enate of lead can be made with ab oluje salet~y even after the heads re formed, since the poisons disap ear from the plants almost comn detely within two or three weeks, r even earlier with heavy rains. ----o - OPPOSES PENSION BIIL Washington, April 26.--In the dis ussi(on of the Pension bill in the eunate, Senator R. D. Smith took oc aitSon to express his strong olpposi ion to a certain provision in it, be ides his disapprobation of the gen ral tenor of it as a wvhole. The section wh ichi he particularly Lttacked proviedls that any widow of fedetral soldlier who had servedl in he Uniio narmy during the Civil War or a periodl of ninety (lays in any apacity w~ouldl receive a pension of 130 per month no matter how many imes she had been married or di 'orced since her' husb~and's death. The mly restriction placed against tho vife receiving a pension was the fact fa Present living husband or a di 'orce for mnisconiduct Of the wife. Senator Smith calledl attention to he fact that a wvidowv of the Civil NVar class, no matter how many times nartially removed from her soldier )ush~andl, would receive a pension, .vhile the soudiers of the world war 'ereived no penision except their in murance, for which they hadl to pay. FTe noted well that the pensions for he Civil War were borne by the whole country and benefited only a ;ection, whereas the burdlen and bone its of pensioning in the case of tho world war wouldl fall on all alike. ~enator Smith said the whole pension mng system was wrong because of polities. Nearly sixty years after the rlivil WVar the pension appropriation is by far greater, he said, than it was twenty years after and the fewver the nutmbers to receive pensions the ~reater the amount. ------ NOTICE The next examination for securing Teachers' Certificates will be held at the Court House on Saturday, May 1st, 1920, beginning at 9 o'clock.
