NEW ENTERPRISES ' (
Radio Corporation and Boll Weevil
Exterminator Co. Start
Business. a
. C
Xotiee of the opening of the books s
of Subscription of the Carolina Radio e
Corporation will be- found elsewhere
in this issue.
This enterprise is one that Cheraw u
should be proud of. in that it is a e
venture into an untried lield and one
that bids fair to bo a wonderful ^
developer of cur rural districts in a
both education and business. ^
The Carolina Radio Corporation
has as it's officers J I. M. Duvall, W.
E. Hurt, Jr.. and H. W. Mclver and ^
has secured the exclusive sales rights t]
for the De Forest Radio Equipment t<
for several South Atlantic States in- ,a
eluding South Carolina. Ci
ine maciimcs win ue soiu mrougii p
agents and will be distributed from
Cheraw. j
A receiving station has been fitted
up by them in the Ciub Building n
where the machines will be demon
strated to both agenis and prospec- ^
tive customers. Numbers of applications
and orders for equipment jr
are being received bv thorn daily and ^
as soon as the factory can furnish
their stock this concern will be a p
going enterprise in our midst.
tr
Another new enterprise of which j(
Cheraw may justly be proud is the
inventor and manufacturing concern 'p
which is building the Daylight Dew
Boil Weevil Exterminator an invention
of our fellow townsman Mr. n]
J. M. Brasington. This invention is
a horse drawn machine which dusts
calcium arcenic oir cotton plants for jr
the poisoning of the boll weevil. The tl
unique feature about the machine is 0]
that it carries force pumps which
forces water thro a very fine spray a]
thereby forming a "dew" on the cot- o(
ton plant in day time so that the
arcenic when dusted on with the
same machine will stick.
We understand that the machine
has bet 11 thoroughly tested out and c
works perfectly and a large numb r n<
of orders for the machines have been Q'
received for immediate delivery. v;

Another Stolen Car Found.
Chief of Folice Jacobs took into
custody, on Tuesday, a Ford touring
car which had been abandoned on the
Society 11:11 road several days ago.
It seems that on the night of April
4th, a well dressed young man ap-, s
peared at the home of Griffin Bradshaw's
and asked Mrs. Bradshaw if 1
he could g'-t some gasoline. Ho sai l j j
he had left his Ford car out on the j
road near the house, having run out
of gasoline. Mrs. Bradshaw told him i
that her husband would be at home
shortly and perhaps could I'd hin. I
have souk* gasoline. The young man !
then said that he was in a hurry and
would not wait ai.d left on foot lea v. i _
ing ihe ear on the roadside. j
Chief Jacobs obtained the car number
and found that it belonged to a .

THE WOODROTV WfLSOX FOO'DATION.
An Appeal to tho Pnbllc Schools,
The schools and colleges are railed
upon to assist in raising South
Carolina's quota of $30,000 to the
Wbodrow Wilgon Foundation. The
appeal should be particularly strong
to the school boys and girls of this
state, because Mr. Wilson spent a
part of his school days in South
Carolina.
It is not the amount contributed
which counts so much as the number
of individuals who show interest by
giving even small amounts. If the
average contribution from the school
children of the state were as much r
ten cent3 so their obligation would
be fully met.
It is proposed to rrise one million
dollars as a permanent r uuuiuuiuu.
With the income from this Foundation
awards will be made to individuals
and groups who have rendered distinguished
scJrivcei "to Democracy,
public welfare, liberal thought, or
peace through justice."
Governor Cooper is the Chairman of
thd Foundation in South Carolina,
and writes ime thus in regard to it:
"It seems to me the purpose of
this Foundation ought to appeal to
every person who believes in peace
through justice. By this means it
is hoped that we may keep constantly
before the American Public
the ideals for which Mr. Wilson
stood during the greatest crisi-j of
the World's history. It gives an
opportunity to every individual to
contribute some amount and thereby
become a charter member of
this Foundation."
The State Superintendent of Education,
Mr. J. E. Swearingen, to whom
the school system of South Carolina
lo AVAvlnctinclv indphtAd SAndo thJq
mesagc:
"The Wbodrow Wilson Pounda.
tion Is worthy of the cordial support
and cooperation of all Southerners
and Southern Democrats.
Public school teachers and pupil*
can very properly take an active
interest in the campaign for funds.
South Carolina cannot afford tc
omit her part of the work or her
contribution to its success.'" 1
Each school should organize a Committee
to collect money and send it.
together with the anmes of the subscribers,
to Gen. Wylie Jones, Palmetto
Nation Bank Building, Columbia
S. C. I hope that every school teacher
who reads this notice will take the
initiative in organizing the work and
carrying it to successful completion
within the next ten days.
Send the money and list of subscribers
to General Jones in Columbia?not
to me.
Very sincerely yours,
W. M. RIGGS,
President Clemson College,
C'iirm. Educational Section in
South Carolina, Woodrow Wilson
Foundation.

HOW TO BEAT THE WEEVIL.
The Eatonton (Ga.) Messenger.
1. Prepare your land in October
by plowing it up with dynamite.
2. Lay it off in rows 12 feet apart,
and plant your cotton seed in December.
3. When your cotton comes up
thin it to one stalk In a hill 23 feet
apart.
4. Spray each stalk twice a day
with Hoyt's German cologne.
5. Cover your cotton with mosquito
netting when it is two weeks
old, this netting to be stretched over
poultry wire.
6. Spread tanglefoot between all
your cotton rows, and replace it every
flay.
7. Burn off all the nearby woods,
and cut down dead trees and burn
them.
8. Dust the following mixture on
your cotton twice a day'?Epsom
salts, calomel cream of wheat and
the white of an egg.
9. Have two hired hands for every
acre in cultivation. Furnish barb-1
ers' tweezers to be used in pinching
the heads off of any boll weevils
which show up.
10. Mortgage your farm and buy
nitrate of soda and spread plentifully
around the roots of the cotton.
11. If any of the bolls should get
punctured have the place vulcanized
it once. Any good automobile tire
man can do this for you.
12. Begin picking your cotton in
February and try to have it all ginned
and sold by the 15th of March,
ind this will enable you to go to
work and grow corn, peas, potatoes
and hogs for your own homie consump
Lion. This kind of consumption does
not need the services of a doctor.

Flying Gas Cloud.
A cloud of glowing gas has bees
discovered flying through spuce at a
speed of 1,125 miles per second.
Readers may be relieved to know
that it is traveling away from us,
but even if It were coming our way
there would be nothing to fear, as
many thousands, perhaps millions, of
yeaTs must elapse before It could reach
us.
llow It manages to remain Intact
while traveling at such a dizzy speed
is a mystery. Equally mysterious Is
the manner In which It was able to get
up such a speed.
The most probable explanations are
that It has been shot from some
gigantic sun belonging to a universe
of stars far beyond those we can see,
or that It Is a gradual accmulatlon of
gas or gasses which ultimately will
be formed Lnto stars such as we see.
