C.?"As the responsible agencies for scientific research in the States, the agricultural colleges can recommend to the people only such methods as have been fully established by adequate and dependable scientific data. Until proof shall be available, new or untried methods and devices should be used with caution and with a view of testing their efficiency rather than depending upon them for self-control." This was the advice Dr. Andrew M. Sou!, president of the Georgia State College of Agriculture gave in an address at the Eastern Carolina exposition to the farmers fighting the cot^ ton boll weevil. The speaker's address was devoted to a technical discussion of the methods of combatting the weevil and was heard by a large number of planters. "A resume of the situation shows," Dr. Soul said, "that th#> hnll woavi'1 has spread over practically all of the cotton-producing territory; that he has come to stay; that his complete eradication by any method now known is impossible and that wherever he invades a locality for the frst time his advent is attended with great loss and discomfort and with a complete unsettling of the farm practices in vogue," he asserted. "Later, the people are able to adjust themselves to the new conditions which follow in the wake of the boll weevil invasion, and the community again becomes permanently prosperous and continues to grow cotton with a considerable degree of success. The researches and investigations made up to this time indicate that while no one definite means of controlling the weevil has been discovered that through the wise employment of all the facts and information known, fair crops of cotton may still be raised. "In this connection it is of the utmost importance that the farmer realize that only those methods of control which have been proven effective ?1 i ? IIIUUIVI IIC CIII^IUJCU. r??

MAB. 29, 1923 r In GOOD FORMS NOW IN USE An unrecorded Land deed, covering a little five-acre parcel of dirt in the Wampee neighborhood, has caused no | little trouble and comment of late. .R. L. Bell owns the larger part of the original tract of five acres conveyed from J. V. Jones to R. W. Wood, and he bargained this portion to Ernest Hardwick. Rardwick had the title searched and could not find any recorded deed from Jones to Wood covering the property, and on this ground, as the principal reason, he refused to carry out his contract I of purchase with Mr. Bell. Then a report got out to the effect that the deed from Jones to Wood I 11 _ nau ueen written m express terms so as to give a lifetime right to Wood only, and after his death that it should return to the heirs of him, (J. V. Jones.) For some time rumors floated about as to the exact wording of this deed. When Jones sold the five-acre parcel to Wood more than twenty years ago, Wood went into possession of the parcel he bought and in the course of time he sold off little pieces of it. He conveyed one acre of it to the late R. Livingston and on the acre Livingston located a store which had several partners and was trading under the name of Wampee Supply Co. One of the partners in the store business was J. C. Livingston, and another, it is said, was W. L. Bellamy, of Wampee. In the course of time the store business went down and R. Livingston died, leavinc his intpvpsf- in thn one-acre lot as part of his estate. Some time after his death the surviving partner, J. C. Livingston, caused a suit in the court to he brought whereby the one-acre tract was sold, and at the sale J. C. Livingston became the purchaser. J. C. Livingston kept the land for a number of years and in the course of time sold it to R." L. Bell. R. L. Bell had already purchased a part of this same five acres of land from either R. W. Wood or someone to which Wood had conveyed some of it. It appears that R. L. Bell, at this time owns a good por 2, "Men Not Wanted"?play. &. "Look out for Louise"?play. 4.

It was heart-breaking to say goodbye to our teachers and students after being with them so long. But we wish them much joy and happiness, and if we never meet again on earth, we hope to meet in a more beautiful, glorious and brighter world, where parting will know no more. A STUDENT. o CAUSING LOT OF TROUBLE An organization of eminent lawyers formed "to promote the clarification and simplification of the law and its hotter adaption to special needs, and to secure the better administration of justice, and to encourage and carry on scholarly and scientific legal work," has been formed at a meeting held in Washington, D. C., which was attended by four hundred of the leading jurists of the country. Former Director of the Budget Dawes says the country is tired of rule by organized minorities which thwart the will of the unorganized majority. The Right Reverend Thomas F. Gailor, Bishop of Tennessee, lays at the door of the "reformer" much of the disrespect of law, of which the country complains, and says that laws which restrict personal freedom and makes crimes of natural acts cause contempt of courts. Evidently something is wrong! When the lawyer, the layman, and the churchman all agree that something is awry in our legal structure, something probably is! One man's guess is as good as another's as what; but there is a decided undercurrent of belief in many quarters that one of our troubles, if not the cause of all our legal tangles, is too much law; too much adding statute to statute, regulation to regulation, practice to practice, without any clearing out of the dead wood of old and worn out ideas. There are even those who say Uiat much legal trouble is caused by lawyers; there is too much reverence for tradition and precedent, and not enough common sense, and therefore not enough expedition in law processes. That the lawyers themselves are forming an association to investigate and initiate reforms is comforting; th^^lxey may have the vision to call to their aid some common sense viewpoints from laymen and churchmen, for whom the laws are made, is devoutly to be hoped!?Selected. _o Habitual Constipation Cured In 14 to 21 Days LAX-FOS WITH PEPSIN" is a specially, prepared Syrup Tonic-Laxative for Habitual Constipation.

V. Jones to R. W. Wood. Durinpr nil this time when changes were beinja: made in the ownership of the land, the deed from Jones to Wood remained in the possession of Wood .and he never had it recorded. Since all of the trouble arose and the contract of purchase of some of! the land bv Hardwick from Bell was not carried out. R. W. Wood was applied to and he had this deed recorded. Its lanjruasre is nothing like the reports that had been Koingr around about it. Tt does not contain anv clause which says that the land shall cro to Wood for his lifetime and then return to""the heirs of Jones. It is r.niv a sample, it annears. of the many defective deeds which were made in former years, and sometimes even now. by men who do not understand the law and leave out some word or ? . *??*? tunc snonin ho inserted in order to express the meaning' of the parties in legal +erms. : In this deed, which is now placed for record, and therefore made public, there is an absence of the words "heirs and assigns" in the habendum clause. The habendum clause of a deed is that part which begins, "To have and to hold, etc." In the warranty clause of this deed the grantor. Tones, warrants the title to R. W. Wood his heirs and assigns. The consideration of the deed is $15.00. which nuts the land at *3.00 ner arre and which was considered a good nrice for land at Wampee. uncleared nc this was, at the time this deed was made. R. L. Poll, who is now in possession of all of the land, so far as is known, except a part of it which Wo<id did not sell, and which is now owned by his heirs at Wampee. says that it can be proved by the witnesses to this deod that it was intended as a good title and that the omission of the words from the clause above mentioned was a mere mistnV? _ V/II VIIU \JC\l 1/ U I the person who nrepared the deed for the signature of the grantor. He is home out hv two things appearing on the face of the deed. The warranty clause warrants the land to the grantee and his heirs. This was not regarded as a conclusive indication of what was intended by the parties but it is a circumstance which bears out the contention in many cases. The other matter is the expression of a consideration which would show that Jones was selling the entire estate and not merely a life estate in the property. I Tt is perhaps a deed which the court will reform by ordering the omitted words to he inserted. Numerous cases of this kind have gone through the courts of late years. On the records of the court appears a judgment against J. V. Jones in favor of the Stone Brothers, of Little River. If it- were held that the estate of Jones had any interest in the l.and. it would be covered b.v the iudir ment. The land involved is a part of the same original tract that was owned by Jones, and .a part of which he sold off years ago to M. B. Thompson, and this Thompson farm figured in a lawsuit at Conway in 1921, when O. J. Bell brought suit against M. B. Thompson and Carrie E. Thompson, alleging a breach of contract to sell him, O. J. Bell, this Jones farm and also another place known as the Jake Floyd land, owned by Mr. Thompson. The incident is mentioned to show the importance of being careful in making and execution of land papers. While it appears that this particular deed may he corrected by the court, owing to the circumstances which haVe been mentioned, yet the fact that it was not properly drawn means a lot of lost time and a lot of trouble caused by the error. In former times in this county the people did not have the advantage of printed forms of deeds such as they oan buy now. They would employ some preacher, justice of the peace, teacher, or notary public to write out their deeds on different kinds of paper. Some times the writer of the deeds knew what he was doing, or thought he knew, and sometimes he was only anxious to write something and quit at that, and he did not know what he was doing when he wrote it. o QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS From Specialists' Correspondence With Farmers What is your opinion of feeding rye to mules??P.

This should be .applied during March and the vineyard cultivated immediately so as to mix the fertilizer into the first three inches of soil. In cultivating grape vines care should be taken not to plow too near them, as the majority of the roots of grape vines are within a few inches of the surface of the soil. If, after applying this fertilizer they do not make satisfactorygrowth during June, give them a light application of nitrate of soda. o FARM GOSSIP A club bov and his nuvehrpd nior .r I are not soon parted.
