Humphries, who re- A turned to Union last year after livc ing in Darlington county for seven I years, recently paid a short visit to that county. He traveled to and froii Darlington in an automobile. We do ^ not publish the report he brought back to cause anybody alarm, but for a purpose. He says on the entire 1 journey from Union to Darlington ho * witnessed the ravages of the boll wee- * vil. In Darlington county and very ( much further up this way the boll %veevil got in his full work. Fields h containing great stalks of cotton v waist high and higher, there would be but two or three bolls of mature cold ton?not enough to make it worth j while to nick it. It is .i comnlete fail- s ure. Mr. Humphries says that last a year the weevil in Darlington county c was about us troublesome as here the j present year. Many farmers in Darlington county said they did not be- h lieve the boll weevil would ever "do ! much damage"?just what they are j, saying here. This year they are dumb founded to find such complete, over- t whelming failure as has come upon ' them. This year the Darlington farm- | ers are sowing much grain and they v are destroijyjifraott-nn .>tu.lks.^md Pr?- t paring to figfntufcTweevil. s What Mr. Humphries reports from Darlington is just what Clemson College has been telling us?the second year the destruction will be complete, unless we fight the enemy. We j are publishing the above story from t an eye witness to force home to the ' farmers the necessity for destroying * cotton stalks and preparing to fight . the boll weevil next year. It is non- j conoo i/v fo llr ^ ^ *- A. ? ? C .tv?iov w w?m Vi taiaillg I1U I'OLWMl. K Union County has been raising 20,000 11 bales of cotton a year. Union County should continue to raise 20,000 bales, L in spite of tne weevil. In addition to c the 20,000 bales of cotton Union Coun- c ty should raise every scrap of food 1 and feed stuffs that are to be used upon the farms and a bit more for ( i-ale to those not farmers. If we can f get into the fight in the right wav Union County will find the boll wee- r vil a blessing, not a curse. ______?? s Our cat says a noble life is an in- Pl spiration to all who come under its m influence. p; ? * ot Our cat says you cannot make ad- nc vance without honest striving. hu m * Our cat says hope long deferred is transformed into despair. di< Our cat says obedience to the law c'* leaves us without any defense save |,j( the law. tfo Our cat says a man who sells il-'^ licit liquor to line his pockets with V gold is a bad man. j /< Our cat says destroy your cotton J I stalks, do it right away. j \ | Three Inseparables * Ont fcr iiiikmwtVlRflNIA T One for mellowness, BURLEY One for arotna,TURKISH [ The finest tobeeoor perfectly < aged and blended ' 20forl5* I c is estimated oy the united States) biological Survey, that in the Western States, his last refuge, there are probibly less than BOO.

'isher, in charge of economic invesigations of the Biological Survey ays. "Since 1890 millions of dollars have eon spent in bounties," lie declared, and there has never been a case here the bounty did any permanent ood." The old bounty men, he charged, ere in ;t.e gume more for the money nd the living they could get out of , than for the purpose of ridding the auntry of wild animals. It was >und, ho added, that the bounty men fter hunting a season, purposely 'ould leave one or two pairs of # * : 1 *--- ? - - i?i co, lu iuimc mure waives, ior mare 3 unties.

"Some of them would write up here lying if they could only have the i of a shark, or the tip of a kaniroo's tail, they could surely lure ime into their traps. That was all ire superstitition." Although the wolf has attacked any persons, and hunted man i. icks in the steppes of Russia, and her parts of the old world, there is ? single case on record, Dr. Fisher pons, where a wolf has attacked n iman being in North America.

Soviet Russia, according to the igency's report, energetically protests igainst this act as menacing to the ?ar Eastern republic, and charges hat Great Britain which, in Lord Durzon's note, accused Russia of ueaking their agreement, is herself riolating the agreement by openly asii.-ting the enemies of the Far Fasten republic. What to do with the thousands of nder tf# command of General Baron iV'rangel who were thrown out of the Crimea by the Bolsheviki and took efuge in and near Constantinople, us been one of the puzzles which ias perplexed the Allied governments n Europe. In April last it was rejorted that Wrangel had asked the '?*ench government to convey his men o Vladivostok. The Soviet government of Russia ias bedfc-suspicious that the forces rould be used somehow against the > dshevik government and during the cist summer the official Russian new igencies ha\e put forth several retorts that these troops were U> be hipped to Vlyadivistok to aid the new ,nti-Bolshevik government there or to uke the field in Siberia against the ioviet government of the Far Eastern tepublic with headquarters at Chita. One of the reports was that Japan iad agreed withGeneral Wrangel to rove his troops to Vladivostok and hat the Russian Soviet government lad lodged a protest against it.

This, number has become a symbo since Governor Reily started making in official trip over the island which <j 1% expects will include every one of i ;he 77 towns. In practically every t own where he has spoken he has as- e serted it was his hope to take the one g ?tar from the flag of independence h ldvocates and place it on the Amcri- t :an flag as the 49th state in th v Union. Everywhere this statenien' \ ras been cheered except by independ 1; >nce advocats. c rNevfcr before has a governor or v Porto Rico adopted (the policy of governor Reily in visiting each towi f ind speaking directly to the people I [n every speech he has emphasized <i he loyalty of the vast majority of r :he people of the island to the United States and he has been severe In hi:' :riticism of the leaders of the ma jority party, the Unionists, who hav< opposed his campaign against the one-star flag and advocate of ind _ pendence.

Foch Unable to Feel Fatigue After Marshal Foch had finished the first leg of his American tour as i the guest of the American Legion his 1 hosts were flooded with letters and telegrams from the South and West ( hogging for an opportunity to aee the < Allied Generalissimo. The Marshal < withstood the strain wonderfully, in < fact, he gained 10 pounds during the ' trip. However, because of his seventy , years this hosts were unwilling to i :ommit him to an extensive swing i through the country, unless he felt j ready to undergo the arduousness of , >uch a trip. "Do you not feel fatigued?" he was < isked by Alton T. Roberts,.who is ' ;hairman of the Legion's reception 1 rommittee. "Fatigued?" he answered. "On the contrary I never felt so rested. When ?ne has been through four and a half * rears of warfare, when he has had to nake decisions that involved the lives >f millions of men and a score of ^ lations, the very motion of fatigue ^ vas dispelled. After that concentraion I find myself now in the capable lands of the American Legion.

In 1913 here wore 157 women and girls working pn the lines of street railway. In 1920 the number was greaty decreased and today but 16 of these onductorettes are to be found on the videly -scattered lines of the city. Romance was directly responsible or some of them deserting the cars. J x>ve Affairs sprang up between con- j luctorettes and motormen, with mariage as the result.
