FIND MOLASSES METHOD GOOD 1 Farmers of Georgia Achieve Success in Fighting the Weevil. |: The Chronice hears from all sides ' of successful experiments being made|( fighting the boll weevil. Fanners arewriting to the Chronicle, telgraphingi The Chronicle, coming to The Chron- | icle office to tell of the progress that nis being made. The Chronicle this ( ye^- as last, is leading the bool weevl -jht for the entire south. So far r \as*^? know no other daily newspaper in the south pays attention to the boll weevil and very little attention to the ; farmer. The Chronicle is in this boll weevil fight with the farmers to win. We know that there is a gigantic 1 task ahead, but we are going to stay in it and we believe that agriculture ' win De savea in mis section Dy mieiligent methods of combatting the weevil. Of course, we shall probably *,never raise cotton in such quantities as we have raised it but cotton is a plant which is adapted for this section and a certain amount of cotton should be raised. Of course we should regulate the supply to such extent pi?tliat neither the New York gamblers nor the federal resere bank can rotr us after we have worked so hard to ' make it. |! Now, for the boll weevil fight. We hear during the past day or two of an increasing number of farmers who are using the molasses and calcium ar- ' senate mixture with great success. In order that every one may keep family iar with tills formula we are print-, ing it again. Two pounds of calcium arsenate dissolved in a quart of wa-, ter; two quarts of water will be let-,1 tei probably; mixed with a gallon of molasses. Apply with mop to each stalk of cotton, touching each stalk in the bud. Do not use too littie and i do not overdo it. Fanners tell us that they can poison in this manner for 50 cents per acre.

THE DIL vessel which you place the calcium arsenate molasses mixture in is clean.! A. bucket with u handle to it is best,) so that the mop can be held in one j hand and the bucket of poison in the other. The original formula for the molasses plan was one pound of calcium arsenate dissolved in one quart | of water and mixed with one gallon' of molasses. We have advocated doubling the dose because we feel! that you will be doubly sure of getting results. Messrs. J. S. Hardin and G. C. Bianchard called at The Chronicle of-' fice yesterday and reported splendid j success with the molasses poisoning. They live in Columbia county. These! gentlemen state that the windy nights: causing very little dew has not made! it as practicable to poison with cal-j, ciuui arsenate through cheese cloth,! as the molasses poisoning. The mo-| lasses can be put on at any time of day or night, whether the wind blows 01 not and the dew each morning' fieshens up the molasses on the! leaves, causing the weevil to go afterj it and drink it. They state also that' the weevils are attracted by thcj sweetness in the molasses. There is no doubt about the results being secured through dusting callium arsenate through cheese cloth iind the question is, which is the best method. Mr. Braswell, of Waynesboro, has written Mr. Willet of excellent results that he has secured and other farmers report success with it.j And by the way Mr. Willet's daily ar-| tide in The Chronicle which is always good, is better than ever rich! now for he is doing a great const rue-j live work for the farmer and for the! entire south. We maintain that the boll weevil problem is still a momentous question. We are making some progress in fighting him and we believe now that all of the fanners feel that calcium arsenate will kill him. The j question is how best to apply it, bow ?1 &UL ^LACK-DRAUGHT s She Has Seen Medicines Come le" Thedford's Black-Draught j c??J ix Jiajcu. feeling after meals. Sour stomach and sick headache can be relieved by taking Black-Draught. It aids digestion, also ssists the liver in throwing off impurities.

And be sure do not forget "to pick up the squares as fast as they fall. The Chronicle yesterday received the following telegram from Mr. L. Dozier Hill, of Georgia, the originator so we understand, of the molasses method of poisoning. Gough, Ga.. June 11. Augusta Chronicle, Augusta, Ga. Mr. N. L. Willet advises that three agents of the agricultural department will soon he in Augusta to experiment on the boll weevil. As your paper nas none nil possible to give the farming interest what information that you could get of a reliable character I will ask that you get your chamber of commerce and Cotton Exchange to ask the secretary of Agriculture to send two investigators here so that they can see the results obtained from the use of my preparation and the manner and cheap and quick way that it is applied. From actual results I am satisfied that a solution of the boll weevil has been found. L. Dozier Hill. The Price of Arsenate. Th" Chronicle hears that in some daces farmers are being charged HO tits per pound for calcium arsenate. Tl.i* is entirely too high. We have quotations from a very large rotnpany in Georgia out of Augusta at 1">1 cent p?-r pound f. o. l>. shipping point in 200 pound quantities. This is from the manufacturer.
