PREVENTING COTT
Nearly every farmer who has grown
many varieties of cotton has at one
time or another suffered serious losses
from the fungus boll rot known as
mnthracac^ Anfhracnose le widespread
and very destructive. It sometimes
destroys all the bolls on a stalk
and frequently dee troys half the bolls
In a field. It attacks the seedlings
after they have come up and in this
Stage frequently destroys the stand
bt cotton. It attacks bolls when they
have began to develop and usually appears
on bolls that are from two-thirds
to Chree-fonrths grown as small brown
or pink spots.' Where such Bpots occur
on the surface of the boll, the seed
and lint of the Inside are usually found
discolored and rotten. The disease enters
the seed of slightly diseased bolls
and when such seed are planted the
following spring anthracnose develops
and attacks the young plants that
the seed produce. In this way Is anthracnose
carried from field to field
and farm to farm.
The anthracnose fungus lives in old
diseased bolls and stalks In the field
for about flfteea months. If the old

A Russian's Effort
to Lose Himself
By EUNICE BLAKE
Peter Trolenco was a member of one
of those circles that sprang up iu Russia
some forty years ago when nihilism
was first heard of. Tliey took their
* "-I- 1 1 ..I? nt-lrwilnla
name uvm rneir uuuci^nib |mui.ip?v
that nothing In government which existed
should continue. The Latin word
for "nothing" is nihil.
There was great secrecy In those circles,
the members of one circle being
completely Ignorant of those In anotbk
sr. FitBT ttllflff&kkl that aiBelW
circles worked in harmony through
their dilefB, but beyond this he hud no
Information whatever. And yet St
Petersburg (now Petrograd). where he
lived, was full of nihilists.
Peter was young, and there was
something captivating in all this mystery.
But one night there came to him
t terrible awakening. Lots were
drawn to decide which one of the circle
should assassinate the chief of police,
and Peter drew the fatal paper,
on which had been sketched a dagger,
all the rest being blanks.
All we romance mrenuing iue secret
meetings, the disguises, the many ingenious
plans of the propaganda of nihilism.
shriveled before tills terrible
deed which Peter was required to commit
and from which there was no escape.
He might tlee to the ends of the
earth, but would never know when
ome one, possibly bis best friend,
would strike him.
To add to his horror, he loved a
young girl, to whom he was expecting
to be married. Nina DimltrlelT was at
the time preparing her trousseau. Peter
feared that his misfortuue. which,
in any event would break their betrothal,
would kill her.
He spent a long while in making up
his mind what to do and finally decided
upon flight He would leave Russia
disguised and go to a land where
he would be lost to the world. But
what action should he take in reference
to his betrothed? After weighing
the matter, dreading the shock he
would cause her by telling her what
had happened, he decided to disappear
from her as mysteriously as from others.
He would confide only in his
mother.
A few days after he had drawn the
dagger he began a Journey to the bor
oer. uisguisea as a Deggar, ne.traveiea
by night and begged by day in the
towns through which he passed. What
money he took with him, added to what
be received from charity, enabled him '
to reach Genoa and take passage for
America.
For Ave years the fugitive kept
changing his residence, avoiding the
large- cities so far as possible, thinking
to lose himself more effectively Id
the country. But whenever be came
near a Russian he moved on. He dared
not write to bis mother for fejir his
letters would be intercepted, but before
leaving Russia he had laid a plan 1
for communicating with her at long intervals.
Finally he received word from ]
her that a friend of his in the circle to i
which he belonged had Informed her.
at the risk of hl3 life, that an emissary ,
had been sent to assassinate him.
One day Peter appeared In a small
town In Missouri to receive a communication
expected from" his mother. '
What was bis astonishment to see 1
walking on the main street Nina Dlmi-1 (

ON ANTHRACNOSE
'
stalks are plowed under In November,
the fungus does not live longer than
six or eight months. When fall plow*
lng and rotations are practised the
disease can readily be eliminated pro*
vided dlsease-frei seed are ueed when
cotton Is again planted on the land.
Seed free from the disease Bhould always
be used for planting. It Is best
to get these from a Held where there la
no anthracnoee, but If this is impossible,
seed should be selected from
stalks which are free from disease and
which are not near diseased stalks.
Anthracnose can also be spread at
the gin and care should be taken In
ginning seed for next year's planting.
If the gin haB previously been used to
gin diseased cotton, it should be thoroughly
cleaned out.
Anthracnose can be prevented entirely
by crop rotation and careful
selection of seed. Now Is the time
to make your seed selections and to
plan your rotation with a view to getting
rid of this destructive disease.

Beyond the Missouri were the plains,

descended the stream and reached
the Missouri in the morning. There he
found a boat tied to the shore. In the
bow he placed a paper, on which he
had written that, tired of being hunted
for his life, he ha# decided to drown

Cheraw Testimony Remains Unshaken.
Time is the best test of truth. Here
is a Cheraw story that has stood the
tst of time. It is a story with a point
which will come straight home to many
of us.
J. N. Stricklin, Editor of Chronicle,
fJreen St., Cheraw, ggave the following
account of his exi>erience in December
IblO. He said: "I have used
Dunn's Kidney Pills for Kidney eom[ilnint
and a lame and aching back and
they have ggiven me the best of relief.
I have found them to be just as repre(iml
T fMtitiirior tbeni a fine kid
