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

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 '

*,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

nor the federal resere bank can rotr

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

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. He sure that the

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

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.
I am glad to recommend BlackDraught,
and do, to my friends and
neighbors."
Thedford's Black-Draught is a standard
household remedy with a record of
over seventy years of successful use.
Every one occasionally needs something
to help cleanse the system of impurities.
Try Black-Draught. Insist upon Thedford's,

economical plan. What will we do
with n wet spell in July? Ilow effec-l
tive will the poisoning be under such
conditions? How often should poison '
be applied? All of these matters will
have to b?- determined by experience ,
and The Chronicle asks the fame is
to write us and keep us posted as to!
the results they are gettinu. 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.

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. There arc probably
other concerns that will sell it for
