Hat Crop of Cotton ’
in Spite of Woeril
inf/’ published in Atlanta, tells about
a Georgia farmer who has made good
crops of cotton ever since the advent
of the boll weevil, and it la estimated
that he will gather 300 bates from
400 acres this year. He protecta his
ooAton by poisoning one time in a
most inexpensive way. His method,
being simple and cheap, is worthy of
a trial by the farmers of Barnwell
County next year. Read what the
Atlanta farm paper has bo say, then
clip this, out and file it away for ref
erence early next Summer:
The dreadful boll weevil problem
which many of our farmers thought
the weather oorvditkxnw of 1926 had
forever settled for us, has loomed up
agaiif and unless effective steps are
baton’ to control this pest, the cotton
crop of 1928 wijl be reduced. When
we begun. to nefalie| the extent .of the
damage that the weevil was doing,
we at once felt a desire to go see
Dr. W. B. Taylor, of Dexter, Ga., and
to see for ourselves just how well Dr.
Taylor’s theory of boll wevil control
was working in such a wet and try
ing season as we are having.
So Wednesday, July 27th, we were
at Dexter and rode out with Dr. Tay
lor to see hip cotton crop. Dr. Taylor
was the first man in the South to ad-
vacate the theory of killing or of ex
terminating the old mother weevil as
soon as she came out of hibernating
quarters, and before she could lay
thr eggs that would produce the new
crop of young weeveils. He has done
this persistently and effectively on his
farm, so that he has been able to
gather, for the past ten years, from
256 pounds of lint to an average of
400 pounds of lint cotton per acre.
This year with one of the worst kind
of rainy seasons, we found his crop
of cotton excellent. It was fruited to
the bop and we believe he will gather
300 bales from his 400 aores. Dr.
Taylor us«s poison only once. He
taken one gallon of black molasses,
five pounds of calcium arsenate and
mixes it well in fifty gallons of
water. He has the nice* arrange
ment for applying it that ever was
invented. He haa twelve half-gallon
glees bottles that contained grape
juice. He had a tinner to make 12
little apouts with email holes in them,
just like the end of a water sprinkling
pot, then he had a band made around
the big end out of a piece of cotton
.1.
tie end a round stick handle fastened
bo it so ss to easily hold the bottle in
an lnvarip(j poaltion. - Then he befeght
twelve small funnels and hie outfit
was complete, and cost him only 50
cents each. Any boy, girl or negro
hand, can fill these bottles and go
down the cotton rows, and by a sud
den jeik nicely aprjnkle the poison
on every cotton plant, on eight to ten
acres per day. Thi? poisoning does
not cost for material over 15 cents
per acre. Dr. Taylor furnishes the
poison free to his tenants, and all
he asks of them, is to put it on, at
the right time and he says, "the vic
tory is won.” He says, that syrup or
sweet does not attract the weevil, but
the molasses does make the solution
adhere to llhe plant. It is simply
wonderful the results that Dr. Tay
lor obtained and marvelously strange
hovi* difficult it is to get our farmers
to follow out hits system. Dr. Taylor
has developed a variety of cotton that
is a great help to him, in boll weevil
control. It has a tough rind, that
the weevil can not puncture after
the boll is from- 14 to 15 days old.
He has tested this out by putting
bolls in/ a wire cage where 100 weevils
were confined. He says that he will
give any man $100.00 to find a boll
in his field, that has been punctured
after it is 15 days old, and he has
proven that other soft shucked varie
ties had every lock mined after they
were 21 days dd. If you doubt what
we say, or want further information
go to Dr. Taylork farm and see for
yourself. It is simply criminal to
lose your cotton crop when by fol
lowing Dr. Taylor’s simple system
you can produce a normal crop, In
spite f *he rainy weather and in spite
of the boll weevil. For he does it!

THE WAT OF A SHIP.
MARK TWAIN WOULD WONDER.
DOG AND PERFUME LAMES.
AND ONLY ONE STAR.
-..n... .. . ...I.. I , !
The way of a ship in the midst
of the sea has changed since
mon, the son of David, wrote* his
Proverbs. The hardy Phoenician,
bringing precious freight for Solo
mon^ temple, and the American
tourist of the General Grant-Mark
Twain period would wonder at the
ships of 1927. ♦
This is written on the Aquitania,
one of many floating cities that
cross the ocean, as free from ro
mance as the moving .pictures
shown on Deck A. ^Whoever has
crossed in old days rubs his eyes,
like Rip Van Winkle.
—
Along the deck, much wider than
Fifth Avenue’s sidewalk, and al
most as steady, comes a wheezy,
short, fat lady, leading a small dog
to match, with all its owner’s qual
ities, plus a disposition to snap at
passing legs. They turn at the
notice, “No dogs allowed forward
of this sign.”
The dog wears a beautiful rib
bon, the lady, possibly a grand
mother, wears brilliant pink silk
stockings, of such high visibility
that an old time captain might
have put her in irons. Much gold
on her dress and on her cheeks
rofusely spresd the rouge that
lezabel wore, in Racine’s descrip
tion,^ pom reparer, dot one, firre
parable outrage.
That modern seafaring lady
passes, and here comes another,
forty years younger, forty times
worse. As she pastes, in bright
red, she scatters all the perfumes
of Arabia, which are the worst,
stickiest perfumes on easth, and
smokes^an ostentatious cigarette.
’ The cigarette is used as a wand,"
waved to emphasise a speech that
she is making, deeply appreciated
by a young man with black, sleek,
greasy hair, a stomach caving in
ward, a foreign accent, and no
more bade bead than a Russian
wolf hound.
The young woman's father prob
ably has money.
Hundreds spend a week ia this
floatii\£; hotel, not realizing that
they are on the ocean until the
fog horn blows. Then some any
**1 don't like that sound.” The
more nervous drown the fog horn
with two more cocktails.

Modern American wealth has
changed ships into cocktail and
breakfast food emporiums. There
are thirty kinds of mucous mem
brane destroyers listed as cock
tails on the smoking room pro
gramme, and indignant Britishers
on their own ship wade-through a
Htt of American breakfast foods
that amazes and outrages them.
In old days after dark sentimen
tal young people stood whispering
behind the wheel bouse. The olu-
er, more serious, looked at the
starry sky. muttering about Arc-
turus, Orion and Pleiades and the
Chambers of the South.

That is “old stuff” now. There
is no wheel house accessible on a
moderh ship, and you are aot sup
posed to look at the stars.
The only one of six decks from
which they.can be seen is da ‘
IT To*
there is to Ihternipt your musings
by falling over shuffle boards of
imitation green* for golfers.
On modern ships one star is
enough. The one to be seen to
night is . wondrously beautiful,
deep and soulful. Her picture, iq
colors, just outside the dining
saloon, shows her pretty tiny
nose, pressed close to the nose tip
of some gentleman. The sign says
Pola Negri in “Good and Naugh
ty.”
In the smokin.T room pools are
auctioned on the ship's daily run,
the pools running to thousands of
dollars . The chief smoking room
steward, generously remembered
by the winner of each pool, giets
twice a; much as the ship’s captain.
That al*o is modern. Many a boot
legger gets four times as much as
the President of the United States.
On this voyage Mr. Newmark
and Mr; Lehman display strange
knowledge as to how fast a ship
will go. Martin Conboy, of New
York, looks on and says it's too
complicated and not worth the
bother anyhow.
News comes through the ether
from both shores, and unlike the
brother of old Jenjme, of Travers
and Jerome, you don’t wait ten
days to learn that Wall Street has
rained you. Yea kaex It the tame
Car Turns 0*er.
WJUk^oft, Aug.’ 28^-CMrlea H.
Smith, well knowtn Williston fanner,
whole returning to Williston last
night was painfully but not seriously
hurt when his oar turned over just
aero* the Aiken County line on
Highway No. 27. He was blinded by
the lights of an approaching car and
ran off the eoabanioMat.
