LAKE CITY WILL 1 GET WAREHOUSE ? ASHTON H. WILLIAMS WRITES HERE THE CITIZENS ARE AROUSED NOW. Lake City \yill cither buy or build 1 i. tobacco warehoi'.se and turn it over I to the Tri-Svate Tobacco Growers' Cooperative Marketing association, if none of the present houses are available, Ash ton H. Williams, prominent citizen of the lower county city writes T. B. Young, of Florence, director j of the association. "I have made inquiry among practically all the business \nen in Lake City," writes Mr. Williams, "and 1 i have found the sentiment is almost unanimously in favor of giving the association all assistance possible. In fact this sentiment is so strong that a committee has been appointed with instructions to buy or build a warehouse and turn it over to the association. The refusal of any owners of warehouse property to sell or lease to the association seems to hav?> created in the minds of people all; ever the tobacco belt the impression I that Lake City is fighting the asso-1 ciatior You can rest assured that) there will be a warehouse here for { the association and that the business men intend to see that the association is given every assistance possible here." f MARKED INCREASE IN MEMORIAL FUND (Continued from page 1) ~ * 1 A AA Ij. 5. weir.Derg iu.uu , Clarerce Alsbrook 10.00 Harry Britvon 10.00 H.

Farmers of Williamsburg. 1 j Under the present boll weevil conditions, it seems impossible to grow cotton. In the boll weevil infestive area, but with good, careful attention, proper work and management, 1 and the use of calcum arsenate you can produce from a half to two-thirds ( of a crop of cotton. The proper and , profitable way to control the boll weevil with calcum arsenate is to apply ! from five to seven pounds per acre ] about once a week. Put it on ear- . ly in the morning or late in the afternoon or at night while the dew is ' on the leaves and the fruit of the ' plant. It seems like the farmers 1 have gone to sleep in the cotton belt. ] They have had about 25 years notice j to prepare for the boll weevil and they have done nothing towards 1 helping themselves, except just wait- ' ing and trusting that it was only 1 a joke. 1 I guess they have learned that its not a joke but a re3l fact. The experiment stations have been working hard trying to fine something to erad- ] icate the bell weevil but so far they j have been unsuccessful?they have found, however, that calcum arsenate . is the only thing that is effective against this insect, and is about the cheapest. It can be bought on the ( market at 9 cents per pound, and its < well worth that if you rre going to j try to grow cotton. i Some of the few other things that will help increase the yield of cot- ' ton is planting early. Get an early 1 maturing variety, and by pushing j your crop forward as rapidly as pos- j ?' ?-- * -ii ~r it.. .iUt.1i!

That keeps the crop 4 growing and prevents him from at- , tacking the bolls that are almost matured. The boll weevil crossed the Riogrand river into Texas in 1894, but didn't do very much damage until 1896. From this time to the present day the farmer in the cotton belt has been warned continually to prepare for the pest. Since 1896 the boll weevil lias been continually on the go, invading the cotton belt as rapidly as possible, j He hit South Carolina an awful blow last year. And by June 1922 he will be invading North Carolina and as far into Virginia as cotton grows. It looks like it would be far better * OTITQtr ?*r\m I or trie launeia uy X4v?. , cotton for a while and try something else as a money crop, also raise products for their own consumption instead of raising cotton and buying their meats and flcur and other food stuff that they can raise just as easy and much cheaper. Economical conditions lcok far better now than it did a year ago, for the reason the fanner is trying some- j thing besides cotton. There is still; room for several good farm enter- i" prises, such as raising pure bred cat- : tie. Pure bred cattle and hogs is the ? cry all over the United States; so | above all things, if you are going to j raise cattle, raise pure bred stock for the first thing a man buying will ask "is it registered," if not he don't J want it. ! Raise your home produce at home I and then you wont need so much cot- j ton. Your farming expense wont be near so great. But cotton .is the South 3rn farmers' hobby. Why not try sweet potatoes? There is always u demand and a good market for them. Form a potato glowers association and put up potato curing warehouses. | You will find that it will pay a much , better profit than cotton. Raise more corn, more hogs, more | cows and have better looking stock on your farm, but if you are going to raise cows be sure and get the types that are suitable for your locality. If you are goihg to raise beef for the market get the beef types; if you are going to raise for j dairying get the dairying types. I sincerely hope the people of Williamsburg will wakeup and try to grow and raise something besides cotton. D. R. Rowel 1. ~ o A news dispatch from Greenwood TWiof ie KaliovoH hv those in 30jr0< f?
