Prevention of Stem-End
Rot of Watermelor
The Treat mfnt.
The treatment eon :s* ; of two step
1. Recruiting the stem of each nu
? n at the time of loading in the ei
vo that a fresh firm green surfa
may be obtained.
2. Applying a good disinfeeta
paste to the freshly cut surface.
Kxplanation.?When the melons a
lemoved from the vines in the field
they should bo cut with long sten
(three to four inches in length), hi
special care should be exercised not
break the stems off entirely or lea1
the melons with stems too short f<
recutting. The fungus which causi
stem-end rot is very active and is a]
to gi n entrance into the stems b
fore the paste is applied unless tl
stems are recut at the car and tl
paste applied immediately. Tl
stems, after recutting at the ca
should be one to two inches long, ?
the paste might be applied with
brush without smearing it on the nw
ons. It is not worth while to put pas
on dead shriveled stems.
Preparation of Bordeaux Paste.
Materials Used.?8 ounces of blu
stone, 8 ounces of starch, 1 gallon <
water.
Directions for Making.?Place 31
quarts of water in an enamel wai
vessel, add the eight ounces of blu
stone, and bring to a boil. Mix the
ounces of starch with a pint of co
water, stirring the starch until it
all in solution. As soon as the blui
stone is dissolved and the solution
boiling, add the starch solution, poui
ing it in a slow stream and stirrin
vigorously to prevent lumps. Coi
Linue the boiling and stirring until tt
mixture thickens to an even paste <
about the consistency or thick pain
This should take about two minute
after tile starch solution is added.
Thi paste is ready for use as son
as it coeds. It is best to use it fresl
but it may be kept for a week or tc
i.ays if placed in a glass or earthc
vessel.
Where commercial paste is used
should be prepared carefully accorc
intr to directions given on the pad
age. Such preparations wTien read
to use should contain 0 per cent c
him s:? ne as a fungicide.
On.* gallon of the Bordeaux past
will treat two to four carloads t
melons.
In olden days when a captain in tt
Britist navy wished to discharge h

his intention by taking away the ti

Mr. and Mrs. S. R. Lybrand and
this scribe motored to Newberry
Wednesday to attend the State Missionary
Conference leaving Union at
3 p. m.f arriving at Newberry at 5
o'clock. We were received by a committee
and assigned to the beautiful
s home of Mr. and Mrs. John Wicker,
this being the first annual conference
I ever attended. I was surprised at
the great work being done by each
auxiliary. The money being sent to
charitable institutions. I was deeply
J interested in the reports of the Junior
classes showing a large portion of
young people becoming more interested
in church work. There were many
touching incidents during these sessions
when the two outgoing missionaries,
Misses Alice McMakin and Myra
Anderson, who are to sail during
this month for Japan and Korea, were
presented with flowers and other
things and a purse of $800.15, then
an old charter member was introduced,
one who helped to organize the
first missionary society in Newberry,
44 years ago. There were a number
of girls to give themselves for life
service then altar call for the mothers
who were willing to give their
children up for life service and many
mothers went to the altar and then
the president of the Door of Hope
made her appeal for help and returned
iui nit- ?uii|iuri ciireuay given
her in caring for the fallen girls. Co__
lunibia should be proud of such an institution.
Every town and community
should have a place for the unfortuis
nate girls. There have been fallen
girls since the beginning and will be
to the end and it is up to us as mis?s.

)f Lepers Paroled
From Mount Happy
lAt
11 Honolulu, July 10.?Ten more ine"
ynates of "Mount Happy," formerly
** {known as the Kalihi hospital for
) lepers, have just been paroled by the
ls territorial board of health as the resuit
of treatments with the new
IS chaulmoogrn oil specific evolved by
Dr. A. L. Dean, president of the UniK
versity of Hawaii. They will be compolled
to report only occasionally to
the health board for examinations to
ascertain whether there has been any
' recurrence of the disease, as the
treatments have checked the leprosy
in their cases to such an extent that
I it is not considered dangerous for
them to mingle with persons who are
not afflicted.

TALK ON TOBACCO
Writer Discourses Amusedly Concerning
"Filthy Weed."
On* Reason Why Clgarott* I* Seldom
Seen In Old Man'* Mouth?
As to Women Smoker*.
Tobacco la a weed grown In a wnrm
climate and consigned to h wanner
climate by persons wlio have not Km rued
to chew or smoke It. A taste for
tobacco la acquired by mules during
the adolescent, or foolish period of
llf*, Robert Quillen writes in ihe Sat- j
urday Evening Post. Tiie small hoy
desires to smoke for the same reason
that he desires whiskers and long
pants. These things are to h!m tin
outward and visible evidence of niiiu
hood, and manhood Is desirable be
cause It niakes an end of restraint
II* would be a man, therefore he
learns the vices of a man. It is a
hard commentary on the nature of
mortals that boys covet the vhes
rather than the virtues of their elders
and think of maturity In terms of li
cense.
Every mother knows that noise Is
avMamsa rv..s-* -v.n j
ciutuvi ?/i 111 me. vuiei tuiiun-ii lire
engaged In mischief. When the bovs 1
of a neighborhood are playing together
out of doors and neither shout nor
laugh attests their Innocence one may
assume that mischief la afoot. If little
Willie comes to the house an houf
later very white about the lips and a
little uncertain In his gait and cotP
fesses a yearning to talk about heaven
one may assume that the mischief
had to do with a first rendeavous with
L'ndy Nicotine.
The chewing of tobacco Is more
prevalent In rural districts than In
cities. One who chews feels more at
ease Is wide-open spaces, where It Is
not difficult to dispose of the by-prod
act. Students of human misery know
little of their subject until they have
observed a confirmed chewer loaded
to capacity and held by convention
where no friendly receptacle Invites
one to lighten cargo.
As a rule tobncco chewerg enjov
good health, but one does not know
whether their physical well-being Is
occasioned by the tobacco or by the
necessity of remaining out of doors.
Smoking Is more nearly universal
than chewing. Cigarettes are smoked
by boys, by young men and by women
One seldom sees a cigarette In th?
mouth of an old man. It may be thai
an old man knows better; or It ma>
be that one who smokes cigarette*
doesn't llnge* here long enough tc
become old.
A boy may smoke cigarettes without
becoming either a bandit or an Idiot,
but he can't smoke cigarettes and
make the track team, nor can he
smoke cigarettes and head his class
In mathematics. The harm done by
cigarettes Is frequently overstated.
All proselyting la prone to exaggeration.
Until recent years women addicted
to cigarettes were divided Into
classes?those who had fallen ao low
that the opinion of the majority did
not Interest them and those who had
climbed so high that the opinion of
She majority did not Interest them.
Today smoking among women Is not*1
confined to a class or condition. Those
who wish to smoke do so without apparent
loss of caste. Doubtlese It is
their right. Yet an old-fashioned man
finds cause to be thankful that the
habit Is not general among women
who bear children. When I observe
a smartly tailored woman drawing solace
from a ctffaratte in the lobby of
n great hotel I am not conscious of
aversion. But I do not believe that
I could rise to equal tolerance If I
should observe a sweet-faced woman
in gingham darning holes In children's
stockings and pausing occasionally for
a deep pull at a cigarette.
A pipe Is pleasant company far the
one who furnishes the draft, but It
affords little pleasure to the Innocent
hvHtandor. As pity prompt* us to
esponne ffce cause of one wh? has
been cast out by society, so does our
love for a pipe grow as others frown
upon It apd sniff their displeasure
The erring son holds the greater part
of the nio.fher's love; the lost sheep
in ths most desirable In the flock; the
worth or a spipe may he measured by
the degree # It? disrepute. The pipe

as much tinHlas you possibly can to
combatting tm boll weevil. The characteristics
anff life history of the weevil
are moVoj jr less familiar to all,
therefore, wdTwant the best methods
of combattinj the weevil so as to
insure us a fa! r crop. In the first place
as I said, lat'l "put out" and keep all
the squares picked up at least once
a week. BuHk them. Don't let them
stay on the ground long enough to
hatch and escape from the squares as
the eggs layed in the squares hatch
in about three days and the grub begins
to feed immediately and after
7 to 12 days the grub passes into the
pupa stage, which lasts from 3 to 5
days longer. It then escapes from the
square and in 6 days more begins the
production of another generation, so
keep all the squares picked up. This
win prevent a second generation. Also
catch all the old weevils you can. The
old or grown weevil is principally active
from 9 o'clock in the morning
until 5 o'clock in the afternoon. When
disturbed it play "possum" and if the
plants are agitated it drops to the
ground and feigns death, so let's everybody
try and destroy every weevil
we possibly can and keep all the
square picked "P* Now a word toward
poison. It should not be used
unless the wevils are injuring the crop
seriously or unless the land is rich
enough to produce a half bale of cotton
per acre if no weevils are present.
Dont depend on calcium arsenate unless
you know that the cost of the material,
labor and equipment necessary
will insure you an increased yield of
at least 100 lbs. of seed cotton per
acre. Beware fake material to destroy
the weevils with and don't become
frightened over the number of
squares you find punctured. If the
weevil damage to the squares do not
exceed 60 per cent a fair crop may
still be obtained. The cotton plant
actually produces many more squares
than it can carry to maturity as bolls.
Under normal conditions abort 60 per cent
of the squares may be shed and
a fair crop obtained. You who have
boll weevils get to work among them
ind let yourself experience teach you r
now to destroy them. If this is such
a socalled fast age which we are liv- c
ing in now who will be the "guy" to
invent a puncture proof boll weevil? g
