Further ; evidence that cotton growers have not lost faith in their crop is shown by the enormous increase in pur- j chaises of materials and equipment used in the growing of the crop. One manufacturer of a chemical used extensively for the treatment of cotton seed to prevent dampjng-off or sore-shin of the young plants reports sales in tho closing months of 1033 were 150 per cent better thai\ for the corresponding months of 1032. This iricreafce in demand for seed treating chemicals is interpreted to mean that cotton breeders and cotton growers are determined to give their crop every advantage during the coming season. It means also that the increased price for Cotton and the government payments to growers have revived the growers' spirits and encouraged them to adopt the latest and most efficient methods of producing their crop. The advantage of treating cotton seed with certain chemicals prior to planting is a comparatively recent discovery. To offset tho dangers of securing a poor stand of plants which in many cases required replanting, growers usually have followed the practice of planting large amounts of seed per acre. This was done with the hope that, after the daniping-off or sore-shin disease had taken its toll of plants, there would still be a sufficient number of healthy plants left fooa profitable stand. With the introduction of seed treating chemicals such as sulfuric acid and ethyl mercury chloride dust growers were enabled to reduce the I losses from damping-off and to be more certain of securing uniform stands of plants. Investigations by several of the Mate experiment stations in the South proved that treated cotton seed could be planted with reasonable safety 2 or 3 weeks earlier than untreated seed. Apparently the chemical applied to the seed protected it from rotting under the cool, wet , soil conditions prevalent during the early part of the planting season. Seed treatment has no direct effect j on losses caused by the 'boll weevil. However, it has beeen pointed out by j scientific workers that one way to rej duce the damage by the boll weevil is 1 to plant early. Prior to the advent ! of effective chemicals for treating j the seed, the cotton grower was placed in a serious dilemma. If he planted early, his char.ces of securing a good stand were execeedingly poor. On the other hand, if he delayed his planting until the soil conditions were more favorable, then he usually suffered heavy losses by the ravages of the boll weevil. Recent publications by several, of the experiment stations in cotton growing states call attention to the fact that early planting of treated seed will enable the grower to avoid much of his former loss from poor stands and from the weevil also, says Henry If. Green, County Agent. The. ( hieago jury trying Basil Hugh (The Owl) Ranghail, lor his part in the kidnaping of John Factor, returned a verdict of guilty. Jle was sentenced to id) years in prison. Banghai t was a member of the Touhy gang of kidnapers and bank dandits. Three members of the gang have already been convicted and sentenced to 9!) years each. Corn Stalk Borer May Be Controlled Clemson College, March 17.-^-The Southern corn stalk borer, occuring in every county in South Carolina1 and causing a 15 per cent damage to the state's corn crop in 1931, may be best controlled by destruction of corn stalks immediately after harvest, fall and spring plowing of corn stubble, late planting dates, crop rotation and cooperation among farmers. This conclusion is drawn from a now publication of the South Carolina Experiment Station, Bulletin 294 entitled the Southern Corn Stalk Borer in South Carolina, by O. L. Cartwright, acting associate entomologist. The bulletin is for free distribution and may be had from the ; Publication Department at Clemson College.. "It is doubtful if any one has realized or carefully estimated the extent of injury by the corn stalk borer and the value of the corn annually ; decileyed." says Mr. Cartwright urg1 ing farmers to secure and study Die ! bulletin. J "The lack of interest", lack of con! trol, and apparent tolerance of this , insect by the farmer are accounted | for by his lack of knowledge concornj ing it and concerning the loss caused by it. His lack of information in turn is due to the hidden insidious methods of attack employed by this enemy of corn. Its feeding is from within the stalk, its damage is evidenced in the decreased weight of the corn harvested; and neither of these is often noticeable enough 10 attract serious attention. "To awaken the grower, to reveal the insect's activity, and to aid the farmer in an intelligent fight, this bulletin presents information pointing out the destructiveness, importance, and estimated annual loss caused by the Southern corn stalk borer in South Carolina; it describes the insect, its habits, and its life history in South Carolina; and it suggests control measures for its suppression." Nudist Picture Banned Orangeburg, March 16.?A motion picture film purporting to show views from a nudist colony, booked by a local theater, was banned today by the city council following a protest from ministers. The theater management announced it "had no idea of showing anything detrimental to the morals of the com-j munity" and said the film had been ! endorsed by Y. M. C. A. officials, physical culturists, college professors, ministers and the national board of review.

Lawrence M. Pinckney, state director of the National Emergency Coun! cil, has been advised by NRA head| quarters in Washington that prepara- 1 'tions have been completed to enforce I ( more vigorously the provisions of the ' I various codes, and thnt when deemed I | necessary the penal provisions of the i National Industrial Recovery Act will be applied. I That strict enforcement is already under way is shown in the fact that within the past several days two firms, one in Charleston and one in Columbia, have been ordered to surrci ier their Blue Eagles and other NBA insignia for failure to comply \\ i h their trade codes. The Mute director's office is pre,?a:ed to investigate immediately all complair.t.s as to non-compliante with NBA codes, either labor or trade 'P*..elite, but ?uch complaints must be sp cific in nature and must be signed th nanus of complaints, however, w not he divulged. Makley Sentenced To Death Chair Lima, Ohio, March 17.?Charles Makley, second member of the notorious John Dillinger gang to face a ' charge of murdering Sheriff Jess Sarber, today was convicted without a recommendation of mercy by a jury j of 11 men and one woman. The ver; diet makes madatory a sentence of l death in the electric chair. A similar verdict was given a week 'ago to Harry Pierpont, named as the | trigger-man in the slaying which 'was committed last October 12 when members of the gang freed Dillinger from the Allen county jail here. With several batteries of machine guns manned by national guardsmen commanding all approaches, Makley and Pierpont now are prisoners in. 1 the jail, as is Russell Clark, who will be brought to trial on the same charge later. The special precautions to prevent a delivery of the trio have been maintained ever since they were brought here. Since Dillingcr's recent escape from the jail at Crown Point, Ind., the guards have been increased at times. When the three banks of Arkansas City, Ark., are opened each morning there is a police car heavily armed parked nearby in plain sight of the bank entrances to guard them against possible robberies by bandits.

Partly covered by sand from a freezing north wind that had been blowing for hours, the child was suffering from cold and exhaustion. He was rushed immediately to physicians. Those who found him said they doubted that he would recover. Wearing only a light pair of overalls and without a hat, the child wandered away from his ranch home at 4 p. m. Saturday. Lost' on the 1,600 acre ranch, he was hunted throughout the night. He apparently had fallen exhausted into the ravine not far from his home. Frank Carpenter, rancher, on whose ranch the boy's father, Ernest T. Carr, is a tenant, directed the parties. Arnold I. Rue, University of California student, claims to have lived two nlonths at a cost of 6 cents a day for food and suffered no loss of weight. ?^i?? On Display Today! Come in and See .?
