WEEVIL MEETING
WELL ATTENGED
Mrs. G. H. Mathis Enlightens
and Warns the Farmers of
Barnwell County
SAYS STOP WITH COTTON
AND RAISE OTHER CROPS
Other Crops and Livestock
liaising' Only Way to Get
Ahead of the Pest.
Barnwell.?A large and appreciative
auiiience attended the boll weevil
convention held here yesterday
'1 no court hosue was crowded. Tne
meeting- was called to order by P.
ivi. Buckingham, who introduced Mr.
Libble, the president of the Bank of
Western Carolina. Mr. Dibble presided
and introduced Mis. G. H. Mathis,
who happened to be the only
one who spoke, the others, for some
unaccountable reason, being absent.
.Mrs. Math is is an interesting- and
elective speaker. She is intensely
in earnest, and held her audience
spell-bound for nearly two hours.
She wasted no time on a dry history
of the boll weevil's movements for
the past twenty years, but at once
tcok up the subject in a concrete
way. She dilated upon the ravages
of the weevil in Louisiana, Mississippi
and Alabama, and painted a
vivid picture of the ravaged districts
new almost depopulated. She next
described the way in which the insect
migrated, its mode of attack,
and the methods used to combat it
by picking and trapping. She strong
ly emphasized the futility of attempting
to arrest it. It could not
bo fought successfully, therefore,
the only thing to do was to plant
something else besides cotton, she
said. >\Sth convincing statistics she
pointed out the serious thriftness of
the South.
Mi's. Mathias described humorous
1> the strenuous efforts the Southern
farmer made to keep down
grass, which is one of the most profitable
crops in the country. She show
ed that the South paid every year a
billion dollars for food and feed, all
of which it could easily make at
home. She next took up hog raising,
mentioned the requisites for
success and proved by statistics that
this was one of the most profitable
of occupations. She appealed to the
merchant and the banker, showing
t'.iat they wore primarily responsible
for the campaign of diversification,
because thoy furnish food and fun.Is
to the farmer. She closed with a
touching panegyric on farm life.
Mrs. Mathis' speech is considered
one of the best that has ever beer
made in Barnwell, and it is hoped
that much good will result from it.
o
DRIVING OUT CATARRH
If people knew how the presence
of catarrh is a constant menace,
thoy would have none of it. It
infests sonio part of the delicately
adjusted body and makes it useless,
thus throwing on tho other organs
more than their share of work. It
affords a carefully prepared seedbed
for the germs of colds, grip,
tuberculosis and pneumonia. It so
disarranges Nature's delicate plans
as to make possiblo asthma, hay
fever and other respiratory disorders.
It spreads until it becomes
systemic, thus involving many organs
and debilitating the entire
system with serious results.
Catarrh is easily neglected, and
it rarely gets well of itself. It
needs proper medicinal correction.
For almost half a century many
thousands have found help in Pe1
runa, a valuable tonic with special
efficacy in catarrhal conditions.
The aim is to clean out waste matter.
to dispel tho catarrhal inflam- I
manor., ana tone up the whole sys*ts
UHCI'a willingly testify
that It has dono xi 11 this and oven
ir1 ore for catarrhal sufferers. What
it has done is the best prdof of
i what it will tk, You may rely on
