Adv, ONLY ONE WAY TO 1 BEAT THE BOLL WEEVIL < t , Following closely the announcement of the discovery of the boll , weevil in Chesterfield County comes , news of a like nature from Lancaster ] County and from Union County, N. < C. In commenting on the situation , thus presented the Monroe Journal , says: , With the boll weevil in Jackson , townshinp, in Lancaster and Chcs- | terfteld counties,this county may soon find itself in the predicament of old Isaac Wingate, a darky of the Meadow Branch community, who was so beset with trouble that he uttered this prayer: "Oh, Lord, there is trouble on the left, trouble on' the right, trouble behind us, and trouble everywhere." There are some who do not think this f ar of the boll weevil is justifiable, for they thoroughly believe our occassional cold spells present a barrier to the pest. For a time The Journal was inclined to this view, but recent testimony on the subject, particularly that of Col.- Fred Olds of ltaleigh, which was printed in these cohimns week before last, proves to us that the argument is fallacious. The department of agriculture is also quoted as saying that the boll weevil is a hardy pest, and acclimates itself to any section, no matter how severe the weather. The weevils found in Jackson township, as reported by Novus Homo, may be a few in number, but when we remember that a weevil can breed twelve million of its kind in the course of a few years, the peril to the country that a small Farmers We have receive guaranteed to be the be: It will 3ay you to i interesting to you.

' Only one method is known that will successfully combat the weevil and that is the production of cattle, logs, grain and corn?things that it :annot thrive upon. Those who commence an attack at once of this kind will have nothing to fear from the invasion of the weevil. It is the farmer wedded to cotton, who refuses to heed good advice, who will suffer.
