Poison Without Delay
The Early Boll Weevil
CLEMSON COLLEGE, June 3.—
With boll weevil emergence in the
eastern and central parts of the
state somewhat greater than for
the same period last year and with
the advanced stage of cotton
growth, pre-square poisoning im
mediately is urged by Alfred Lut-
ken, extension entomologist, who
suggests also that the first genera
tion of weevils can be greatly re
duced if the fallen squares are
picked up and burned.
The pre-square poison that has
proved so satisfactory and popular,
Is made up by mixing one pound of
calcium arsenate with one gallon of
water and adding-this slowly and
with vigorous stirring to one gallon
pf cheap molasses. This mixture
may be applied with a burlap mop,
dragging it across the tops of the
young plants and using one to two
gallons per acre. Mr. Lutken sug
gests the first application when
squares are forming, with two ad
ditional applications at intervals of
five to seven days. In all cases the
application will need to be repeated
If a heavy rain falls within 24
hours after poisoning.
Publications giving details re
garding boll weevil control may be
had from county farm agents or
from the Division of Publications at
Clemson College.

Jesus on th» Cross
Lesson for June 11th Mark 15:1-47.
Golden Text: Romans 5:8.
We have arrived at a supreme moment in the dramatic
story of Jesus. He is now on the Cross, soon to die after
unspeakable anguish. It is the blackest day in history, the
day of mankind’s most atrocious crime. But such is the
paradox of the crucifixion that we call the day of the Mas
ter’s death not Bad Friday but Good Friday, and think of
Him, in His agony, not as a miserable failure, but as a King
on His Throne.
We are aware of the magnetism of the Cross, so well
expressed in that great text in the fourth gospel, “And
if I am lifted up from the earth will draw all men to me.”
The novelist Thackeray felt its attraction, for we are told
that one day, as he was walking in Edinburgh, he saw the
wooden crane of a quarry sharply etched against the sky.
He stopped, gazed earnestly, and quietly said, “Calvary.”
Note, too, the spiritual power centered in the Cross,
the power of a victorious Redeemer whom, as Paul says,
“God hath highly exalted.” The shame of the Cross is a
badge of glory. For wrong does not win. No, indeed.
Right wins, for God's Spirit is there, and that Spirit is in
domitable.
Again, the Cross is the Way of Life. The early Christ
ians eagerly kept the Cross in sight, and were known as the
companions of the Way. We Christians of today are also
comrades of the Way.
Now what do we mean by the Way of the Cross Two
things. First, we mean the abandonment of those forces
of evil responsible for the execution of Jesus, and all sim
ilar crimes. Second, we mean a dedicated life of complete
sacrifice and devotion. And both of the&e are hound up
with the crucifixion. How are we to get rid of sin? By
the saving power of the Cross. “Christ died for our sins,”
as Paul assures us. And how are we to launch ourselves
into the selfless ministry of the Christian adventure? We
are to do so by following the path of the Via' Dolorosa even
unto Calvary.
