CHOLERA AT COTTAGEVILLE
County Agent F. W. Risher has
been busy the past few days treat
ing hogs for cholera at Cottagevllle
ns the result of an outbreak of this
disease In that section. Mr. Risher
urges the people of that community
to bury or burn all dead animals
and shoot the buzxsrds in order to
prevent, si much as possible, the
spread of the dfseape.
Caterpillars May Appear Meet Any
Day New.—Cotton Should bo In-
tv
opeettd as Often as Possible.
The Entomologists at Clemson Col
lege are expecting a heavy outbreak of
the true army worm in the State this
year. This caterpillar Is an inch or
more in length and varies from gray
to black In color, with black stripes
and narrow white lines on the back
and a greenish color on the under side
Inspect your cotton as often as pos
sible so that the worms will be diseov
ered before they have advaned over a
large area.
Spray.
Where the worms have Just been dis
covered and are still confined to a
small area, spray with the folowing;
Arsenate of lead 2 lbs.
a ter .a.....,,,,,.... *, *>0 gals,
or
Paris green 1 lb. ..
Freshly slaked lime 2 lbs.
Water 50 gals.
Use arsenate of lead in preference
to Paris green, for there Is no possl-
billtr of arsenate of lead burning the
foliage.
Dust with Poison.
If the worm is over a large area
dust.the cotton with a half and half
mixture of arsenate of lead and air
slaked lime, cheap flour or fine ashes.
This Is very practicable where there
Is a large area affected.
Balt with Poisoned Bran.
Where spraying and dusting will not
do use the following poisoned bait;-
Wheaf bran 6b Ihs.
Arsenate of lead 2 lbs.
tor 1 lb. Paris green).
Cheap molasses 4 qts.
Lemons or oranges finely
chopped/ 6
Mix the dry bran and poison, then
add (he molasses. Work into n dough
and add the oranges or lemons. When
the dough is too thick, add a little wa
ter Broadcast this bait over the In
fested field, or among the worms when
they are on the march.
^ ' Or Dttch.
When the worms are moving in a
mass, they may l>e halted by digging
a ditch across their path. The ditch
should be narrow with steep aides.
When the worms fall Info It. kill them
by dragging a log up and down through
the ditch. ''
Mature Is subject to heavy losses
from several sources. For instance
maay farmers lose practically all their
liquid manure, yet this contains more
valuable plant food than the solid
There are a number of ways to save
stable manure and every farmer
should exert himself to get the most
possible out of his manure

CONDUCTOR SMITH OUT
In last week’s Issue of,The Press
and Standard we announced that an
evangelistic meeting, conducted by
Rev. Jno. B. Andrews, would begin
in Walterboro on the 25th of Feb
ruary. A letter from Mr., Andrews
states that the meeting will begin
Sunday, March 4, the time of the
meeting having been delayed one
week on account of the demand of
the people of Richmon, Missouri,
where he is now holding a meeting
that he protracted it. As announc
ed last week this will be a union
meeting. / The Christian people of
the community are called upon to
a» much preparatory work as possi
ble that the largest results may be
obtained.
The Richmond Missourian, of Jan.
25th. has the following to say in
reference to the u^eetlng now being
conducted by J^r. Andrews in Rich
mond, Mo.:
As faithfully as a man ever labor
ed for the betterment of any com
munity describes as nearly as we
can the preaching of Evangelist
John Andrews, who is winding up
the fourfly week of the revival in
the Methodist church,
j The attendance from the very be-
' ginning of this revival has been on**
{of the most remarkable things about
it. The weather man has seen fit
! to send a brand that w as chilling,
'snow falling and real wintry winds
'prevailing. There has been rain,
‘followed by the natural result—
slippery pavements. But nothing
1 proves the power of Evangelist An
drew« more forcibly than tbe-'-fact
that from 700 to 1000 people have
heard every sermon he has preached
at night, while every day of the
four week the afternoon services
have been largely attended by the
people who know that there is gen
uine merjt in every word that this
good, true-to-God and man evange
list utters.
The Missourian pays what we be
lieve is a just tribute tills morning
to a man who has been telling so
! often his personal expci ieifee about
j “before and after taking’’ the eter
nal life medicine. He has had a
thrilling, wonderful, strikingly un
usual experience in life. His ser
mons all come from the greatest
'school the world will ever know—it
is commonly referred to as “The
j College of Experience.” \
Looked at from every standpoint,
it has come neater being a» old-tini'*
revival than has enmfi to pass in
Northern Missouri foV many years.
Miss Anne Andrews has very con
clusively proven that her ability to
preach wcW. - she is a splendid
j sneak®ly-'fiml she has been sowing
; seed jfl'the minds and hea-ts of the
yoirfic ladies of Richmond and vi-
elnitv that. w ill,, he productive of in-
ralt liable
The friends of Conductor/^. M.
Smith will be pleated *0 learn that
he has go far recovered from his'
recent illness that he was able to
be out on the slreets of Bamberg
Saturday for fhe first time. Mr.
and Mrs. Smith expect to move to
Ehrhard>>ln Jhe near future.
