Hendrix, a farmer living near Powder Springs came into the Journal office Wednesday and showed the results of the experiment explained below. Mr. Hendrix stated that he had visited farms in all sections in Cobb county and finds the boll weevil here in plentiful numbers.

Terrell, Committee L boll weevil or quit trying to raise cot- j ton. Believing Mr. Hendrix experience will be of benefit to the farmers of ' this section, we take pleasure in printing it here. May 23, 1922. Editor Marietta Journal:"I began to make war on the boll weevil on May 15, last, just eight days ago, since which time I have killed between 800 and 1,000 weevils with j calcium of arsenate. I have conduct-1 , ed a test to ascertain the most effective j way and at the same time the most j economical way of applying calcium | and i recommend a formula about as follows: Take 10 pounds of calcium, two gallons of sorghum syrup, or, four gallons of thin molasses, two or three boxes of ice powder and mix this with 15 or 20 gallons of hot water. Use an ordinarybarrel to mix it in and it will keep-for i 15 or 20 days. The ice cream powder may be eliminated if inconvenient to obtain. My reason for using it is that i it makes the mixture stick to the cotton plant better. To apply this mixture to the cotton , plant use a thread mop or a cloth mop can be very easily made by taking a stick some three or four feet long and fastening the thread or cloth to one end. If cloth is used in making the mop when the cloth is securelyfastened to the stick take a pocket knife and strip the cloth into small strips. This makes an excellent inop to apply the mixture. By taking a bucket full of the mixture in one hand and the mop in the other the mixture can be applied to the plant about as fast as one cares to walk along the cotton row. When the cotton is small just a drop or two of the mixture to : WE have adve months?

Of course as the cot- ton grows larger more of the mixture will have to be applied, and therefore the cost will be proportionately in- * creased, but the cost at no time will * exceed 45 to 50 cents per acre. n A small quantity of this may be mixed about as follows: Take two table spoon fulls of calcium, two of sorghum v and mix in about a quart of hot watr- ^ er. As an experiment I mixed up about a quart of this mixture and dipped into it some six or eight small cot- * ton plants, then placed the plants in * a jar in which there were 350 live e weevils. In ten hours after palcing the cotton plants in the jar with the weevils they were all dead. ^ The calcium may also be used in e powdered form instead of made into a liquid as above outlined. An eco nomical way to apply the calcium In powdered form to the cotton plant is c to take an old fashioned guano horn * and tie a piece of cheese cloth over the c large end. The calcium is then placed into the horn and may be du3ted t through the cheese cloth onto the cot- ^ ton plant. The dusting inu3t be done ? late in the afternoon for it to be ef- t fective. When the plant becomes lar- r ger a dusting machine made for the ? purpose will be necessary in order c to properly apply the calcium in pow- t dered form. t In order to encourage my tenants, ? as well as to destroy the weevils, I < am paying one cent each for all the i weevils caught on my farm. To date l we have caught between 1200 and 1,- i 500 weevils and we haven't been over 1 one time yet. j I am of the opinion that if we suertised this slogan for *jjc**#*!{c?s|e:5t.t * y v # * * IF YOU BUY IT FROM US IT'S * * WORTH THE PRICE. * * * ?**#*#**?*#$ ** ladies who will bring whose slogan it is, v in, each. f LE DAY ay \ / One day in each chinery, stock, proc e farmer. .1 bargains by this Ad sements containing ub J.

I tup dttdp ofvn rn C2 eed in making any cotton here this ? ear we must fight the weevil in every J|j mown way, and by every known meth- $g id. There is no use for one to throw v? iway his fertilizer, his time and labor, he labor of his stock and the inci- || lental expense of making a crop of m :otton, when, by adding a little more m ? ime, labor and a small amount of I noney one can make a reasonable Ja lomunt of cotton. Unless one plants :otton with the expectation and in- '?1 ention of fighting the weevil it would ^ >e better to leave the cotton unplanted ind cultivate the land in some other :rop. The weevil is here in large M lumbers and there is no question that m II le will utterly destroy the cotton crop |g mless some steps are taken to com- $ lat him. Let's put on our fighting togs md make a crop in spite of him. J. H. HEXDRIX. the past several 1 rfl the above clipfill be given a ? ? * u PI ? r< * L* 1". L* ; H $ 14 ri * .
