BESCTAR1T1ES OF COTTON FilR BOLL WEEVIL CONDITIONS. CJciitsou Collego.?Ttee boll weevil' has made its appearance in ten; counties of South Carol titta. In several: of, tt:?*se counties the.- wcevii ie uu-morons enough to darsage the cotton* crop, to a eonsldei ablu extent in 1919* { Consequently, some <tbanges in tfcuc tnelbvHi of produciug; cotton must be* tuaifee to combat thl* pest. Among these ch&age-n will he plttnting of better, seed of earl'or frmting varieties t!ian are now, g?'U^n?Ily used. A variety must be uaedt cfiat will begin to., fruit early amU sot a pood crop of h^lls by the first of August, for after tdhis time the weevils ire usually abundant enough to dent rov all squares that appear. It should l)o a good yielder with, a high percentage of lint. A medium size plant is desirable. It should. Utavo but 3 or 1 vegetative branches, but fruiting branches should be numerous, both sots o? branches coming out near [ tne ground. I The cost of growing an acre of cotton from the best seed i? no greater than the cost of growing the same acre from inferior seed, but the difference in yield will often bo from IIOO to 500 pounds of seed cotton per acre in favor of the good soed. At the present nrico r?t* ontfrvn V N i D - ...... ... IHIO n IllliU IJ *7 v" i *east $30.00 por aero, not counting tho *eed. The. abovo (Inures are confervaflvc, for in variety tests consisting only of varieties considered standard for the State, results have boon obtained showing a greater difference than abovo between the highest and lowest yielding varieties, though in many cases the yield of the lowest yielding variety in these tests would be greater than from "gin mixed" seed of inferior varieties commonW used by many growers. t'onsoqiu nlly. those who use low grade seed in the weevil infested area will suffer a double loss, while those who use tho vest varieties adopted to their sections will lose only to the extent of damage duo to the weevils. That many farmers .are beginning to realize this fact is indicated by the many inquiries for better varieties and sources of seed. There is no such thing as a "boll weevil proof" cotton. Select a variety that has boon tried and has proved Itself adapted to the section in which it is to be grown. Then purchase seed from a good reliable breeder as near home as possible; for results show that seed ordered from a distant state where conditions are entirely different lo not produce as well as native grown seed. Early fruiting and late fruiting varieties should not be planted in th<u same community, as the weevils will I nave nau lime to multiply in the fruit formed on the early cotton and be 1come numerous enough to destroy ! practically all fruit as fast as formec ! 3ii the late variety. I During the last two years more that ; twenty of the best varieties have been '.ested in Edgefield, Aiken, Barnwell, 1 Hampton, Boaufort. Charleston, and Dorciiester Counties. From the remits so far obtained and.from observation as to fruiting and growth, there ire several that seem to be well adapt Ml to these sections. Of the short staple varieties tlia< can be commended for South Oarolii conditions, Cleveland Big Boll, Coo . Dixie Triumph, and Dixio are the privij cipal ones. The first two are wc-1 Klapled for all sections of the State ?xcept where the land is wilt-infected. Cleveland is now more generally jrown in the State than any other a iet /. Several thousand bushels grown and bred in the State are sold eve y veai in the weevil district further South and it is giving good results. Seed of this variety can be obtained from reliable breeders in the State, svbo have for several years been soecting and breeding for earliness. I'his is considered one of the best varieties yet developed for South Carolina conditions. Cook ranks among the highest yieldng varietioc in the Stute, but is not is generally grown, as anthroooose or boll rot seems to be worse in this variety than any other. But several breeders have strains that are now practically free from this disease. On wHt-infeeted land nothing but vilt-resistant varieties should be planted. Of these Dixie Triumph an*I Dixie lave given best results. Dixie Triimph is a new variet> developed by a prominent breeder of the State. It is early, with medium size plants, large jolls, and is a good yielder. Seed of his variety cannot be obtained for planting the coming season. Mexican Big Boll and Sawyer are ihort staple varieties that are eiM-ly ind have yielded well in the lower counties of the State. Sawyer is a semi-cluster cotton with large bolls on medium to small plants. It sets fruit uirly, matures quickly, hut (loos not ;zvV. high >" yield, and sheds fruit 'icavily in unfavorable weather. Webber 40 and Webber 82 are tho sarliost long staple varieties. Both are well adapted to the State, fruiting as ?arly as the short staple varieties and frequently yielding as much seed cotton per acre. In securing seed of any of the above varieties get seed that have been bred for earliness from some reliable breeder. Tho extension f^ervMco of nicmson College will furnish farmers with a list of the best sources of seed .n the State u^on application. i I 'tvery CaI- &^ WAKiNSlCNGTRIP IN AEROPLAKEt Four Travel Stained Machine; at.

GOVEHHT Authorize Sweeping Inquiry ot Activities in This Country of Bolsheviki MEETING IN WASHINGTON STIRS UP LEGISLATORS Congressmen Who Attended It Bitterly Assailed?League to Enforce Peace. Washington.?Bolshevism is to be investigated, analyzed and catalogued, and the dissemination of its doctrines in the United States is to be made other than the safest indoor sports. The Senate to-day unanimously adopted this resolution, extending the power of the sub-committee of the Judiciary Committee that has been delving into German propaganda: Wide Scope Given Committee, j Resolved that the authority of the Committee on Judiciary conferred by Semite Resolution No. .'.07 be and hereby is extended so as to include the power and duty to inquire conc? rning any efforts being made to piopogate in this country the principles of any parly exercising or '.aiming to exercise any authority . Uus ia. whether such efforts origiate in this country or are incited or in/mced irom abroad, and further to inquire into any effort to incite the v.crthrow ot the Government of thia umtry or all Governments by force, . ' y the destruction of life and prop lty. or the general cessation of indust ry. Senator Overman, Chairman of his committee, did not welcome the new job with enthusiasm, but when . was thrust upon him he started light in to work, and already the ommittee is getting up lists of wit ami preparing to do a thorough job. * Although the resolution which wan ffered by Senator Walsh, is directed .b inquiring into any effort that is bring made to advance the propaganda of overthrowing government by force, it will not be confined to a report of the doings of the missionaries of the doctrine of chaos. Such proponents of the Lenine-Trotzky need as are within reach will be called on to particularize what they are aiming at and how they expect to accomplish it. What Stirred the Senators. While there have been fugitive speeches about Bolshevism in Con- * gress, it took a Bolshevik meeting, held under the noses of the statesmen, to bring them to a realization that a menace was incubating that deserved attention. It was not a particularly fierce meeting at that? simply one that dispenses the usual generalities about the superiority of the Soviet form of government to our own, and decried the persecution of the alluristic Bolsheviki by the imperial Governments of the world? with Representative Billy Mason ris ing in a box and announcing that he was ready to go to jail presumably for the Bolshevists' cause and charging that the money intended to save the Russians from starvation was being used to pay the interest on the bonds by J. Pierpont Morgan & Co. Incidentally, Mason came in for a verbal castigation in the House for his part in the meeting of the Reds, and it is among the possibilties that the right of a member entertaining such views about the United States Government to hold his seat will be questioned before they are through with the incident. # , But it was in the Senate that the big fireworks were set off. All hands took a turn at , denouncing Bolshevism, and Senator Borah turned the debate to account by lugging in the League to Enforce Peace and infercntially the League of Nations* as being of the same bolt of cloth as the Soviet doctrine of internationalism. o MORE AND BETTER FRUIT.
