HOW GEORGIANS MET INVASION OF WEEVIL (Continued from page one, Part II) clare; and unless earlier fruiting crops can be produced this industry will he a thing of the past. In South Carolina, especial attention must be pai l to the Sea Island cotton. Expeits from Clemson college will give attention to this, and will be glad to advise with the growers of the Sea Island variety in the coast counties. J. D. Prrce, commissioner of agiiculture in Georgia, in a recent statement issued describes the conditions Miat he found on a .'100 acre field of cotton. The weevils were on the job, attacking each young boll as soon as it appeared on the parent stalk. Their ravages were so complete as they went from stalk to stalk that the commissioner declares that the whole :.CO acres, trivintr evidence of a line field three weeks before the inspection, "will not make a handful nf cotton." Doubt Cost Him Money. By being skeptical about the coming of the weevil and minimizing the damage the pest could do. the farmer during the course of three weeks could do nothing but watch the weevils turn his crop into .'100 acres of barren stalks. He did not heed the warning offered him and the result is his year's work is gone to nothing. He estimates that he lost $18,000 on the cotton. There are many farmers who have suffered likewise. Some were wise enough to make their own food and feed crops at home. There are many cases reported where farmers went into debt to grow cotton only to find lemselves on the wrong side of the ledger at the end of the year and wivaivsuv caii^y WllUll 1 VJ I mc 111 <l I l\Ul. However, these farmers can not buy supplies on time apain next year? that is, if they propose to prow nothinp but cotton apain. Speakinp of conditions in Georpia, the Atlanta Constitution said in an editorial: "Those Georpa farmers in the southwestern section of the State, who were disposed to doubt the warninps piven them repardinp the invasion of the Mexican cotton boll weevil will assuredly think better of their attitude another year and proceed accordinply. Notwithstandinp the fact that for two or three years prior to the first appearance of the boll weevil in this State, the State board of entomolopy kept continually before them the fact that it was inevitably on jts way, and that its advent was just as certain as death and taxes, there were not a few farmers on the southwestern border line next to Alabama who unheedinply went ahead and made no alteration in their plans. They are now sorry they did it. To meet boll weevil conditions next year the farmers in the infested territory must begin work now. It is vitally important to clean the fields, to plow under the dead cotton stalks, to clear up the stubble and rubbish and burn it. In this way many of the weevils are destroyed, and are defeated in their efforts to tret into safe winter quarters. This year's experience has proven the value and importance of the warnings. Next year the weevil will invade more Georgia counties. Farmers in the danjrer /.one can profit, if they will, by the experience of their neighbors. They are foolish to stand in their own light, if they fail to do it." cooper is rur.ei) to be candidate Pressed to Announce for Governor Two Years Hence?Friends Will Meet. Supporters of Robert A.

Once upon a time Norman Jones, serving in the National Guard at El Paso, returned to camp after a strenuous 1"> mile hike foot-sore and legweary. He had not been long in active service and his shoulders, back and limbs felt the after-effects of marching. Remembering Smart's Liniment, Jones applied it to the sore spots and went to bed. He writes: "I arose the next morning feeling line; in fact, I had entirely forgotten about the hike and went out for a four-hour drill in the sun as spry as ever." Private Jones passed the experience along, and many a boy on the border relieved the agony of sprains, strains, bruises, insect bites, cramped muscles. rheumatic twinge, etc., l>y the use of Sloan's I-iniment.

Calomel is dangerous. It crashes into sour bile like dynamite, cramping and sickening you. Calomel attacks the bones and should never be put into your system. When you feel bilious, sluggish, constipated and all knocked out arid believe you need a dose of dangerous calomel just remember that your druggist sells for 50 cents a large bottle of Dodson's Liver Tone, which is entirely vegetable and pleasant to take and is a perfect substitute for calomel. It is guaranteed to start vour liver without stirring you up inside, and can not salivate. Don't take calomel! It makes you sick the next day; it loses you a day's work. Dodson's Liver Tone straightens you right up and you feel great.
