agricultural extension work to be earned
on with Federal and State tunds'
through the State agricultural col- t
leges in cooperation with the United j?
States Department of Agriculture, by s
means of instruction and practical e
demonstrations in agriculture and c
home economics to persons not attend- t
ing the colleges. ?
The Smith-Lever Act. appropriates f
money as follows: ?
(1.) $10,000 of Federal funds annually
to each of the 48 States. ,
(2.) In addition to the $480,000, the l
act appropriates for 1915-16 $600,000
cf Federal Smith-Lever funds. This ;
sum will be increased annually by
$500,000 of Federal Smith-Lever
funds until 1928, when the annual i
Government appropriation will be set
at $4,580,000. The additional appropriation
is divided among the States
in the proportion that the rural population
cf each State bears to the total
rural population of the States . Any
State, however, to share in this extra
Federal Smith-Lever fund must appro
priate and spend in extension work at
least an equal amount of money from
sources within the State. The money
from the States will brin gtlic joint
demonstration fund to $1,680,000 ir
1915-16.
In addition to the Smith Lever fundv
however, the Department of Agriculture
during 1916 will expend from its
own appropriations for farmers' cooperative
demonstration work and for
other direct field instruction in special
subjects over $1,025,000. The States
will raise from sources within the
State .and spend for demonstration
work a total of .$2.Of0.000. This will
make a grand total of $4,750,000 to be
spent in the fiscal year 1915-1 f> in
bringing.practical and helpful instruction
to the farmer and his family in
their own communities.

COTTON WAREHOUSE
TO RE PERFECTED
Law Needs Changes Which Will
Make System Right
For Farmers
Columbia, S. C., Oct. 1.?Governor
Manning and Warehouse Commissioner
McLaurin held a lengthy
conference in the Governor's office a
few days ago, discussing the advantages
of the State Warehouse system
and the legislation necessary to perfect
the law governing it. No statement
was given out after the conference,
but it was learned that both
Governor Manning and Commissioner
McLaurin are agreed that certain defects
in the law should bo remedied i
and that there was a practically complete
agreement between the Governor
and the Warehouse Commissioner as
to what is best to bo done in perfecting
^ this law that means so much to the
cotton producing interests of South
Carolina. It is likely that Governor
Manning and Commissioner McLaurin
will hold frequent conferences on
this matter before the Legislature
i meets in January and the results of
these conferences will probably he embraced
in a message from the Governor
to the Legislature during the early
part of the next session. The
following editorial from the
Yorkvillc Enquirer of Sept 21st refers
to this subject:
I "As a result of a conference between
Governor Manning and Warehouse
Commissioner John L. MeLaurin,
it develops that Governor Manning
is not secretly hostile to the State
warehouse system, as was legitimately
deduced from published remarks
recently attributed to him. It is quite
clear that if there should be a reguj
lation providing that managers ol
! State warehouses should be absolutely
| disinterested parties, neither (/ners
of the warehouses nor of the cottor
stored therein, 'there .could easily doI
velop a situation very different frorr
that under which all present progress
has been made. But from reports
| of the conferences referred to it ap
pears that the governor is most sin
; cercly solicitous of developing th<
; warehouse system along lines tha
will work to I he interest of the producer
of the cotton first, an,' the puhli<
generally, second. The conference
referred to, we understand, developer
that there was practically complete
agreement between Mr. McLaurin aiu
Mr. Manning as to what shall he don<
and the outlook is that such recommendations
as the governor shall set
proper to make to the general assembly
with regard to improving ant
strengthening the warehouse system
will be made only after complete
agreement between the governor and
1 the warehouse commissioner."

UNUSUAL SPREAD OF
TEXAS BOLL WEEVIL
Went Into New Territory This
Season at Double Quick
Time.
NEW TERRITORY IS
TAKEN IN GEORGIA
impression is Tha,t Pest is
D3'ing Cut in Eastern
Texas.
Washington, 1) .C., Oct. (?.?"Under
normal conditions the boll weevil advances
into new territory at the rate
of about 50 miles each year, but during
a period of only two weeks during
the present season there was an advance
of about 100 miles. This movement
carried the insect into Georgia
for the first time, and 25 counties in
i that State became infested. Several
counties in Fiorida have been infested
j for several years but 8 additional ones
became infested by the same movement.
Twenty additional counties in
Alabama were also invaded. All of
tuts spread vook pWe bVwcen t]/?
loth and dlst of August. "* -v ^
There were several conditions according
to the entomologists of the
United States Department of Agriculture,
which contributes to this unusual
dispersion. One of them was
, the drought in Alabama and Mississippi,
which caused the plants to cause
i fruiting and deprived the weevils of"
> the squares upon which they prefer
to feed. Two more important condi?
tions, however, was a series of a very

i days toward the northeast. The wee.
vils were thus carried much farther
i than they would have gone by natural
5 flight or even by the aid of ordinary
51 winds.| tW_..
-1 The Department has placed all
-! available forces at work to assist the
3 j farmers in the territory that has j\1s?
t become infested. Most of the cotton
- j is now open and this will allow an un31
usually early picking so that the
; | broods of the weevil can be destroyed
1 by uprooting and burying the plants
? or burning them where necessary. The
1 Department strongly urges the buryi
ing of the plants wherever can be
- done prompt 1\ as the humus thereby
i placed in the soil is of very great im
portance. The Shtite agencies are co1

partmcnt, and a very active effort
, will be made to reduce the number of
j weevils to the extent that will allow
an approximately normal crop to be
produced next season.
Another feature of the boll-weevil
problem which is attracting considerable
attention is the dam* ge that is
being done in Texas this season.
There is a more or less general impression
in the eastern part of the
cotton belt that the boll weevil has
died out in the State of Texas, but the
investigations of the Department
show that the abundance of the insect
in that region depends on climate conditions
During the present season
I these conditions have been extremely
j favorable with the result that the inI

i time since it invaded the State The
( lesson to be drawn from this fact is
that the planters in the eastern part
j of the cotton belt must make a strenu;
ous fight, and should realize that
' since the boll weevil has not died out
either in Texas or Mexico, it is not at
( all likely to do so in any other region
I
j that may become invaded. They
1 should adjust theii systems of farm'
ing to boll-weevil conditions without
delay.
