number of conccb|j6ns and pirns of
control, yet the pnly one that has
shown profit enough to warrant its
use is the calcium arsenate dust. At
one time there were a great many
farmers that advocated the use of the
well known mixture of syrup and.
arsenate, but very little is being heard
of liquid poisons these days. This
was largely due in this section to the
fact that one or two large prominent
farmers were strong advocates of thrs^
plan of poisoning. •’ They "’ho V" -have
ing the dusting
Where one “finds that there are a
great number of weevils-now begin
ning lb puncture squares, it is just
one indication of the number that
have emerged this Spring, which is
ten times as many as last year up to
the same tipie of the year. Farmers
should now be getting ready to do
systematic dusting as soon as the
weevil is seen to become damaging
(prior to teri per cent of the squares
being punctured). ^ I find there is
more interest than ever in thp proper
dusting, and where it is done as
‘it should be it will pay.
The names and places v wfll 6e given
next week where demonstrations will
be carried on. In the$e demonstra
tions a check will be left to show the
value of the poison and all farmers
are urged to observe these demonstra
tions.— By County Agent Boylston.

the bird by the jjpck.jlrove a mile to
the home of a negro. Unable to break
the bird’s grip by beating and choking
the negro was forced tp cut the lead
ers of the bird’s leg before he could
withdraw its talons, the longest of
which probably measured an inch and
a half. i■ —■
The lad was brought to Johnston
for treatment.- Several scars were
showing in his arm. , v
Quite a number who viewed the bird
declared it to be an eagle, while others
thought it was a hawkj From the dic
tionary of natural history we find the
following description of the goshawk
6r goosehawk: “Goshawk.or goose-
hawk—-A voracious bird of the hawk
family, larger than th€ cOHVmori buz
zard, but of a more slender shape. The
general-color of the plumage is deep
brown, the breast and belly white.”
The bird ha« been sent to the chief
game warden for identification.—The

Tallahassee, Fla., and states that
since that time he has hatched off
240 chickens. He extends an' invita^
