Boll Weevil and Winter-Quarters 1
Clemson College, Aug.?23. The i
^ cotton boll weevil finds his hotel for j
^ the winter in old stalks, weeds and (
dead grass in the field. He will find i
splendid winter-quarters in unkept t
terraces, weeay anon caputs ana iences,
in neglected orchards, in underbrush '
along the woods and roadsides, etc.
The weevil requires for successful
wintering a place with a given amount
of moisture, failing in such places
where moisture is heavy. Therefore
the cover crop that is used for preventing
land washing and the leaching
of soil fertility, and for maintaining
soil texture is of the greatest value
under weevil conditions, because it
acts as a cleansing crop which keeps
down weeds and winter food plants
and destroys protective covering for
the weevil and other destructive insects
-during the winter. *
It is time now for farmers to think
about these matters and not let this
work go until the last moment, adInses
Prof. A. F. Conradi, entemolob
'st who says that we want to clean
ap our farms this fall as we have
never done before. These wintering
. ?laces mentioned must not be per\r
?ted; they must be removed or destroyed
by one method or another.
Kuftius is our greatest deficiency in
fanning and for that reason vegetable
matter should be properly incorporatkL
io the soil whenever possible; but
tanydAL ? a great many cases wnere
BKfcfflbe done; and yet should
dead grass, etc., remain
W^v> mter they would form
suc^p.Wintering places for the
boll v 'vil. iniing may be the only
resort Ly which they can be distroyed,
and if so, burning should be imN
. ployed.

Farm Profits of the Future
The big profits in fanning during
the next twenty years will come to an
altogether different type of man than
has been the case during the past
twenty years. During the past twenty
years those men made the most money
who were ke$n fudges of land and
who were real feetate dealers primarily
and fanners only secondarily. From
now on chiefly those men will make
a big success who .are extraordinarily
afficicnt as farm managers. We have j
:ome to the time when inefficient;
farmers will be remorselessly weeded j

?The United States Department of
Agriculture, through the Bureau of
Public Roads, has about 12,500,000
pounds of salvaged picric acid to distribute
free among landowners to
stimulate land clearing operations,
rhis explosive was used in large
quantities during the World War. Because
of its high cost of manufacture
it can not be classed as an agricultural
explosive; but as a salvaged war!
naterial it is recommended to farmers
who can obtain it at a lower cost
than they would have to pay for comnercial
explosives. The only charges
nade by the government will be for
sacking and transportation. The headquarters
in each State will know how
nuch these amount to for the differ;nt
distances.

What Mother Gives
They always wonder what mother
gives,
But I tell you the list is long?
Comfort and cheer and grace and love
And sacrifice and song!
They often question what mother gives
And I answer that she gives all?
Her life and her hope and her trust
and dream,
Her heart and soul to the call!
She gives, ah, how shall we count
The million things there are
That she gives so those tl!8t she loves
may walk
'Neath the light of a lucky star
She gives her patience, her rest, her
rights,
Her pleasure, her chance, her turn,;
And maybe they'll never render you
one
Of the milion crowns you earn,
Why, nobody gives what mother gives
l^obody could give more,
Day by day through the rolling years (
She gives from her little store.
Tireless, cheerfully, all her life
A gift for the sake of others;
And how many children really know
What a beautiful gift is mother's, i
