SOME OF RULES
FOR POISONING
Wholesome Advice Contained
In a Circular On killing
Weevils
AS IMPORTANT
AS CULTIVATION
All About Dusting1 Machines
and How to Use Them
Against Weevils
n?> H Riuht Or Not at All
M/\ny valuable lessons have I>0011
pained from the recent expansion of
commercial weevil poisoning. It has
auain been shown that the I>??11 weevil
can he poisoned with profit if conditions
are favorable and if proper
methods are used, hut it lias been
emphasized anew that unfavorable
conditions and improper methods can
lead only to failure. A urvev of the
poi oninu' by farmers in 1020 shows
that an unfortunately laree proportion
were not properly informed as
to the conditions under which they
should poison and the methods they
should pursue. As a result there were
many unnecessary failures. If better
vpsults are to ho secured in the future,
thorofopr. I ho operation must
ho more thoroughly understood. The
pro-ent circular is prepared to give,
in as hriof and conciso a form as possible,
the informal ion needed 1 >y a f.armer
in deciding, first, whethm* it will
pay him to poison and, second. the
methods ho should follow.
Woovil poisoning is fullv as important
an operation as cultivation and
deserves as much serious thought and
attention. I'nless you are willing to
undertake it in this mariner you should
not attempt to poison. Study these
instructions carefully and follow them
as closely as your conditions will por?
mit.
Where Will It Pay You to Poison?
It will pay to poison?
\ If the weevils are really injuring"
*your crop seriously, and
If your land is sufficiently fertile to
yield at least one-half hale per acre
with weevil injury eliminated, and
If your farming organization is
such tlv t you feel assured that the
poi-on applications will i>e made ai
the right lime and in the right manner,
and
If you are willing to spend Ihe full
amount necessary to provide an adequate
supply of dusting machinery
and poison.
The general gains from weevil poisoning
under average, fairly favorable
conditions seem to he from 200 to 100
pounds of s'M-d cotton per acre, hut
owing to variations in degree of weevil
injury it is not safe to expect
Dili' h more than the lower figure.
Con fl uently, you shou'd not poison
if the cost of the calcium arsenate.
the eost of the labor to apply it,
and the depreciation on the dusting
machines will total more per acre
thai the current value of 100 pounds
of eed cotton.
Hand gun hould he figured as depreciating
100 per cent in a sc. on
and the larger machines about 2o per
cent.
What Dusting Machine Should
Von Use?
M ike your acreage allotment according"
to the following schedule, and
buy a surplus rather than shortage of
machines, a this will save you money.
Hand (inns.
Do not allot over eight acres to one
hand gun.
[)o not attempt over twenty-five
acres in one organization with hand
guns.
Do not supply individual tenants
with hand Runs aim o.xpeci, t-mn L,,
care for his crop successfully independent
of the others.
Uso hand guns only when no other
machine is suitable.
One-Mule Machine.
This term is used to describe the
new type of one-wheel, one-mule machine
which is just being* placed on
the market. It sells at a medium
price and is suitable for small farmers.
This machine will cover from fifteen
to twenty acres in ;i night of operation.
It should not be allotted more
than sixty acres for the season.
This machine has only two nozzles
but will usually cover three rows at
a trip.
Cart Machine.
This toi*m is used to describe the
two-wheel, two-mule machine which
straddles a row of cotton. It is the
type most suitable for large farmers.
This machine will cover from twenNATIONAL

Valuable Results Being Obtained

Experiment Station
Clemson College, Jan. 26.?A tost
consisting" of about thirty-four varieties
of cotton is beinn1 conducted at
the main station and /it each of tlu
sub-stations, according to a recent report
of Prof. C. P. Rlackwoll, agronomist.
Good results were secured at
both the Pee Dee and the main station
at tlx4 college. Last year the project
was also carried out at the coast station

road along that route which they
d thought would do the most good to
I. the greatest number.
Citizens of the Greenwood section,
r as well as those of Martin's Hill.
wanted the road very much and they
" took steps to secure the rights of
way, and these would not have cost
t the county a cent if the road had
gone that way.
The board decided on the river
route and for various reasons,
n among them, the fact that it will
cost much less to place the road
along a route where a road has already
been opened and built. It is
said that the funds for the use of
the new road arc not any too large.

WARRANTS FOR
RICHARD HAND
Alleged That lie Traded Mortgaged
Property and
Other A sis
Warrants have been issued fo:
Richard Hand, a colored preachei
who formerly lived in the neighborhood
of (Ireen Sea. He made moiltfages
to the Lori- lirocery Company,
of Loris, and when he failed
to pay the debts secured l?y tli
mortjraffcs, and they sent to see
about tbc property; it is allowed that
it was found ho bad morttfaj.vod property
that bo evidently bad not ow ned
I! appeared further that some of the
property covered by tbe mortu'aufes
bad been taken off and sold last
Summer it Cerro Gordo, N. ('.
Warrants were issued ami placed
in tbe hands of Sheriff .Jas. A.J
Lewis.
Not lon?>- before the cearch for
this property was made, Hand
moved away from ibis State and took
up his residence in tbe city of
Wilmington, N. 0. There it is said
he has been conducting a woodyard.
A requisition will be asked for tbe
return of Hand to this State for
trial, unless he agrees to come back
without that.
ON ft HALF M ILK
The location of tbe highway from
the end of Fourth Avenue, round bv
iU- 1?-i . - - -
tut* .Vinson place, instead or taking
the nearer way along what is known
as the new road, makes it about 0110half
mile or more out of the way.
The saving; of this for the years to
come should have decided the location
along: the new road. Using' Fourth
avenue of the town, if that is necessary,
did not make it necessary to
take the sandhill route in preference
to the other. Connection with the
new road could havo boon made just
as well from tho end of Fourth avenue
and yet have saved the distance
that people must travel through tho
years to come.
The winter of 1021-22 is fast passing
away and we have yet to experience
the h;ir<! \se ither that was predicted
by the weather prophets hefore

Hon. \V. A. Prince arrived in Conway
last Saturday in time to keep
his appointment here to make ;i talkon
the new road bill introduced by
Senator Jeremiah Smith; and on the
matter of taxation generally. He
also had an appointment at I.oris on
the same day. I
The representative arranged for
these meetings by reason of the f/ict
that just at this time there is dissatisfaction
with the present road
law, and widespread complaint about
the burden of taxation and there is
much discussion as to the best ways
of relieving this tax burden.
So far as the income tax law is
concerned .us it has been introduced,
the citizens' association recently
formed in Columbia, are opposed to it.
They argue, and rightly so, that the
rate of tax is too high; that instead
of aiding the people by ri'iding them
of some of the burdei\> they are hearing
at this time it will add to the burden.
There is no better way than Mr.
Prince's plan for a representative to
find out the wishes and desires of the
people represented.

pooled is said to bo of much bettor

In commenting further on the situation,
ho savs: "As there is little tobacco
outside the pool, it is expected
that all the unpoolod tobacco will be
sold within the next two weeks."
The Kentucky Asociation will begin
to offer theirs over their 1 .??0 worn
