THURSDAY, MAY 25TH, 1933 If it costs a.! much to play golf as some devotees claim, we wonder how in heck it got its Scotch origin. Down in Allendale town stray cows ’n’ pigs ’n’ other varmints got to be each a nuisance roaming at large on the streets that the city daddies pass ed a law “agin” it. Some people’s idea of a hick town i* one where grass grows in the streets and cows graze thereon. The People-Sentinel does not say that Allendale is a hick town. Some of its streets are paved. But cows ’n’ things roam at large. I Nobody’s Business By Gee McGee. »X^X»<».X»-X>4>-X~fr»+ The Simple (Ton) Life. A fellow dropped in to see me a few days ago, wanted to rent a “halves” crop. I don’t know how he found out out that I owned some farm lands; I tried to keep that fact a secret for 5 or 6 years, but 1 have bragged on it .»ome in the past, back yonder when land was called goo< collateial at a bark. This prospective tenant recom mended himself pretty stout to me. He said, “Oh, you know me. I have 9 younguns big enuff to work, a!s.. a mother-in-law and her third hus band, be.-idea me and my wife, and none of us is afraid oi work, but 1 dont do anything myself as 1 g t a fall in 1915 and sprained my wrist. He asked me for a chew of to bacco and as I lidnt chaw, he st il wanted tobacco, but he wanted on; “I ainr got no money and no mule or nothing, but I won’t need but about 905.00 per month, and I won't take m thing but the ca^h. 1 can manage my own affairs; I always have”—(Meaning that he did not want anyone to '•furnish him.) --.mi* .poor lazy guy wanted me to adopt him and his huu-h Id f"i a few months. He didn't own anyth.ng ex cept a fine appetite, a crowd of chil dren that have done their beat to keep him *U|rplied with the necessities of life, and a few ear relatives. He said he was thru with cotton, and wanted to plant goobers, torn and talers. We did NOT trode. It is unfortunate to be a land- owner. The few hundred acres of farm lands that I own would possibly fetch half th«ar present assessed value at this writing, about $7.50 pyr acre, if they were put on the tdock, and that possibility looms just over Ahe horizon. I have sever*! farms rented for the taxes and that’s charg ing the renters too much. But I be- tlieve inflation will make me rich again. PRE-SQUARE POISONING TO CHECK BOLL WEEVIL Clemson College, May 22.—Boll weevil emergence in all parts of the state warns the necessity of prepar- injf to fight the eariy invader, by the in thc A"'"' 1 ®’*- PM 1 ' * h -“l Bodiford—Morrison.

Bodiford announces the marriage of - Leyied upon as the property of her daughter, Pearle. to RichArd Tillia Harry Holman and stld to satisfy the Morrison, Jr., April 28, in Barnwell. Mrs. Morrison has been a teacher use of pre-s.quare poison. By killing the overwintering w'eevils, many of the early squares will be saved and the first generation of weevils will be materially reduced, advises Alfred Lutken, extension entomologist. The mixture of one pound of cal cium ai.senate, one gallon of water, and one gallon of molasses has been popular with cotton growers of the state for a number of years. Factors which have brought about the popu larity of this well known 1-1-1 mix ture are (1) cheapness of materiaL', equipment, and labor; (2) effective ness as a poison in the pre-square stage; and (3) the small amount of arsenical that is added to the soil. The last point is of considerable im- poitance since many of the lighter soils have been injured by heavy ap plications of calcium arsenate dust. The first • application of poison should be made, Mr. Lutken says, as soon as squares begin to form, if weevils have been found in the com munity. Additional applications sould be made at inteivals of five to seven days. By the time three or four applications have been made the squares are so large that the weevils are feeding n them and sweetened poison is no longer effective. Following the pre-square poison, Mr. Lutken suggests frequent infest ation counts and when about ten per I • cent of the squares are punctured, at least one application of calcium arsenate dust, four or five pounds to the acre, will help to check the weevils until the early bolls are too hardened to be attacked. last five years Mr. Moirison is the son of Mr. and Mrs. R.
