To Lessen Weevil Damage Clemson College, Oct. 24.?The cotton boll weevil has had most ideal conditions this fall for spreading over a wide territory. When the dry weather set in and the fruiting stopped, migration started, and at the present tirtle the weevil has reached a line passing a little south of Gteen^ Vpod through Bookman, Camden, and v: proximately Darlington. Weevil damage on many farms in the southernmost part of the state waa severe during the past season, ^ but dj^orticn of the damage for which the weevil is held responsible was due to weather condition, says Prof. A. F. Conradi, State Entomolo" ? - V 4. _ J grist. Serious injury may oe expecicu in Beaufort, Charleston, Hampton Allendale, Barnwell, Colleton and / Bamberg counties next season. It is exteremely important, at this time, that the very best attention is given to the destruction of all cotton stalks at the earliest possible date. Over many farms in the southern part of the state the fruiting of cotton is over, and the stalks can be destroyed with out any loss in the crop. This may be accomplished by chopping the stalks with a stalk cutter and plowing them under. Where horse-power is available they ^py. be plowed under by having a beam attached to the plow to knock down the stalks so thai: they may be covered. It is immaterial what method mayj suit the individual farmer best, but W to allow stalks to remain on the cot^ ton field is a most dangerous practice under boll weevil conditions and is a sign of very careless farming. Destroying the cotton stalks is the most effective control against the Weevil. o Special sale on bycicles Fair Week. KINGSTREE HARDWARE CO. PE-HU andMANAUN Mrs. E. M. Harris, R. R.

For Mary is going blind. She has already lost the sight from one eye and is rapidly losing the other. She needed money for an operation by a specialist in an attempt to save the sight of the remaining eye. So Mary stole. And little Rita helped her, according to the story the girls told the police following their arrest. The girls coniessea stealing sevcial ornaments and a watch in a jewelry store, selling the plunder for $4. Mary hid the money in her home?in an old stocking. It was a start at least So the girls started out the next day to continue their campaign of gaining enough money fo.* Mary's operation. But the "start" was also the finish. The jeweler whom they had visited the day before was looking for them, saw the girls on the street and had them arrested. "Oh, I'd do anything," Mary told a reporter, as she brushed away a tear, "if I could only see! I'd go without good clothes and everything. It's awful, mister, to know that some day you are going to be so that you can't see the flowers, or the birds, or Mount Hope, or any of the pretty things. "If I don't go completely blind, I will be happy. But I guess 111 go blind, for the doctor said it would take an operation to save my sight, and poor mother hasn't enough money to pay for it." o Your wife's health means more to you and your home than can be estimated.
