Blizzard walked through the COttOn On his Bass r>lfirt? n#?r T.atto and found boll weevils in abundance. Mr. Blizzard says he'did not think he had a weevil on the place. He brought several blossoms to town and the weevils could be seen dowti in the t>ud eating the fruit in feverish haste. They appear to be greedy insects and If all of them work as rapidly as those Mr. Blizzard was exhibiting it will not take an army of them long to clean up & patch of cotton. The weevil is feeding on the top crop this " year and if he destroys this he will not do much damage as it has been a good many years since Dillon has made a top crop. ? o FORMER DILLON MAN DIES.

"I had the boll veevil last year on my Grove place tear Sellers," continued Dr. Stacklouse. "and 'I am getting used to ilm. He made his appearance again ?arly this spring and he has been rery much in evidence all the sumner. The wet weather of July and lugust has made him multiply rapdly. I don't believe the boll weevil vill do as much damage in the Pee as must yeupie sft'IIl IO I 111 n k ne ?ill. We have the advantage of the >ther sections of the south in that ve have tobacco to fall back upon, ind thus the boll weevil will not deirive us of our only money crop. I im making preparations to diversify lext year and on all my farms I will plant peas, corn, potatoes, pind>rs and other food crops, put up some encing and raise \ few cattle and logs, and reduce y cotton acreage. t I thought we would have a dry rune and July next year I would not are a snap about the boll weevil, but or the past three years July and Vugust have been extremely wet lionths and we have 110 assurance hat next July and August will not be he same. With the start the weevil Till get in Dillon County this year he rill play havoc with the crop if we lave the long mid-summer rains text year. Tl! j people have nothing to ;ain, however, by getting excited ver the situation. The best thing they an do is to keep their heads, do a ittle clear thinking, study th0 situaion as closely as possible and Ihey j till not be badly damaged.". 'i Ollie Hai Geo.
