| WHAT IS ITT
It'* a worm, full grown, measures
about an inch and has a bill
With teeth sharp and keen. It 1b
destroying cotton on the farm of
Mr. T. H. Privette. It burrows into
the boll or hatches within, feeds
its peaky self on the germ, destroying
and killing the boll and bores
out like an auger. Mr. Privette j
and Mr. J. W parrow brought a box ,
full of the destroyed bolls to the
Messenger office last Saturday.
The editor mailed a few to Clemson
College requesting a report. Mr.
Privette discovered the damage done!
to his crop a few days ago. Twen- i
ty per cent of two rows two acres j
long, he said, had been destroyed. |

a caterpillar, but is not hairy. Can )
any of our farmer readers give ;
-V. the name of the worm.??
The above is from the Hartsville :
Messenger. The worm referred to
has made its appearance in this
county. Several days ago a farmer
on Mr. J. S . Thompson's place
brought a dozen bolls of cotton to
The Herald, showing the work of
the worm. It burroughs its way into
the boll, causing the boll to rot
S. " and drop from the stalk. Messrs. 8.
F. Stephens and F H. Hayes who
saw the bolls in The Herald office
were of the opinion that the Insect
Is known as the "wet weather" worm '
Excessive rains keep the ground !
damp, particularly where the foil-;
age is very thick, affording the |
worm a fertile field in which to '
R thrive. Mr. Hayes says the worm
is not a recent thing. , He found
A the same worm on hiB cotton years
cotton, but Mr. Hayes says they do
not breed fast enough to do any
material damage. It is not the boll
| weevil. It is the boll worm.
? TRAGEDY OF ERRORS ENDS.
Story of Twain Separated During
Civil War?Ohio Youth Left
Bride For Front.
Kenton, O., Sept. 1?As quaint
a romance as was ever written down
in fiction has found its ending here
in real life.
Philip Carr, remarried to the wife
he lost in the turmoil of the War
Between the Sections nearly half a
century ago, is enjoying with her
his second honeymoon. They were
re-united in wedlock a few days
since, but it was only yesterday that
the facts became known as to their
life's history. Separated by raiding
guerilias who captured the federal
mails; divorced because of a believed
desertion; each remarried and
^ each again widowed, they found the
love of their youth still aflame
upon an accidental meeting not long
since, and their new betrothal folr
lowed at once.
I Carr is now 74 years old and his
wife 68.
Marched to Front.
It was in 1862 that Carr, responding
to Lincoln's second call
for troops, marched to the front,
leaving his bride of a year and his
infant daughter behind. When some
months later his letters and remittances
stopped, she was induced
to apply for a divorce on the ground
that he had deserted her.
sometime later she remarried and
vent to live in the East
Mis Uride Missing.
When Carr returned home from
the war the bride was missing and
he learned of the divorce. Stung
to the quick he too married another.
Many years later her second
ih- husband and his second wife died.
Wit Recently he returned to the scenes
* of his boyhood arid here he met
? "the girl he left behind him" in '*>2.
He explained how the mails had
been raided and the letters written
5 with the stubs of a pencil in the
trenches often stolen with his slender
savings from his soldier's pay
of $13 a month. And he told ol
how, when her letters stopped he
too believed that he had been deserted.
Both the old people say, however,
that the tragedy of errors had
been made up to them by theii
happiness now .
