BOLL WYEEVIL PROGRESS

U. S. Department of Agriculture Issues
Map Which ShonYs Laurens County
Included In Weevil Infested Area.
A map of the Cotton Belt showing
the limit of cotton boll weevil disper
Aion to iDecember 31, 1919, has been
received in the offlice of the County
[Parm Demonstrator, showing that the
weevil - reached dLaurens County dur
Ing the past season. 'This map and a
statement accompanying it, which
were issued by the U. -8. DeparUneni
ft Agriculture, are of interest to all
cotton farmers. It shows that.of the
34,500 square miles net gain made by
the weevila, in 1919, 25,'100 square miles
were made in Tennessee, .Georgia,
South Carolina and North Carolina. In
South Carolina alone the weevil cov
ered 18,400 square miles of new ter
ritory in 1919. The line showing the
present limit of the -weevil im the state
passes through Anderson -in Anderson
County to Laurens in Laurens county,
crosses the southern end of Union
county, runs through Cornwell in
Cheiter county and -Pleasant 1-1111 in
Lancaster county, then extends to
Chuesterfleld in C0hesterfleld county and
across the northern end of Marlboro
county, leaving the state just north of
MeColl.
The importance of boll weevil infesL
tation in South Carolina is indicated
by figures of the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture which indicate
that only ai)out 2 per cent. of the cot
ton produced in the state is grown in
uninfested territory.
County Agent Aloore states that a
request has been made for a number
of copies of the 1919 boll weevil map
for' posting in public iplaces about thc
county. '

Stringent Measures are 'Taken to En

Chicago, Feb. 23.--An expedition
bent on ironing out, by force if neces
sary dificulties of prohibition en
forcement in the Michigan uipper pen
insula, Avas started from Chicago to
night. Major A. V. Dalrymple, federal
prohibition director for the central
states, left with a party of prohibition
agents for Iron county, Michigan,
where county officials are said to have
overpowered governinent agents last
week and taken contraband wine 'which
had been seized by the government
men.
"We'are not starting a wild west
show and we do not expect any armned
resistance," Major Dalrymple said. "If
we do meet resistance, we will be pre
i)ared to' cope with it. I intend to ar
rest prosecutor McDonough of Iron
county, two deputy sheriffs and tho
police officials of Iron River and place
them in jail charged with conspiracy to
interfere with the carrying out of the
prohibition law.
"We will ask United States Commis
sioner Hatch at Marquette to issue
federal warrants, but we will make thc
ar-rests r-egardless of whether ho acts

Kramer- at Washington, and. assistani

ENOINES COLLIDE
NEAR CHARLESTON
Two Southern Railway Trains In
Smanshiup. No Fatal Injuries.
Chairleston, Feb., 21.-Twenty-four
passengers and eight railway men
were injured in a headon collision this
morning between Southern Railway
trains Nos. 16, from Columbia, and 13
from 'Charleston, which came together
at IBennetts about six miles from this
city. No fatalities resulted, most of
the injuries received being of a minor
charater. The two locopmotlves were
practically demolished, and the engine
ien had a narrow escape from ,death,
as the cabs were mashed flat by the
impact. They jumped in time, after
putting on brakes and reversing their
engines. The collision occurred
through some misunderstanding, not
ye't officially cleared up.
There were about 1~>0 passengers on
the two trains. All were severely
jolted, but. of the 24 listed as inured,
none is apiparently seriously hurt.
Engineers W. P. Sullivan of No. 16,
and liugene Conlon of No. 13, Con
ductors Fickling and 'Kennedy, and
Engineer O'Brien of the A. C. L., who
was on the train, were sent to Roper
hospital for treatment, wile two
porters and an A. C. -I. inspector, .1.
.-I. Hurbige, also hurt, went to their
homes. All are of Charleston, it is
understood. None of the injured Ints
sengers found it necessary to go to
the hospital, so far as has Ibeen
learned. The passengers of both
trains and tra inment were brought to
Charleston on the -Atlantie Coast Line
trala No. 85, which came along soon
afte' the accident. Work of clearing
the track was beg.-iun proiptly, and
the two trains will resume operation
by toimorrow. Another track at this
point enabled general traffile over ie
Southern to be handled as usual. None
of the cars left the rails, the impact
being heavy but much lessened by
precautions taken by the engineers,
who saw the collision coming in time
to slow tiII. Among t:assengers who
received injuries, all said to be slight,
are the following: A. C. Knight, C. -L.
Schiver, Joseph Walker, San Wolfe,
C. P. Kennedy, Mrs. T. W. \Vilson, M.
W. 'Cowan, Mrs. J. F. Pandarvis, It. M.

Immediately upon being notified of
the tyreck, Frank ,W. Shealy, chairman

wreck. A hearing will be held at 9:30
