they must have and what papers they

MONTHS TRIAL FREE.
Breathe Hyomel Three or Four Times
Daily and Be Cured of Catarrh.

The Dawson Drug Co., one of the
most reliable business firms in Dawson,
have seen many instances of the re-
markable power of Hyomei TO cure ca
tarrhal troubles and other disorders OF
the respiratory organs.
Results in this treatment have given
them so much confidence in HYomel
that they will give a months trial
with the positive understanding that II
at the end of that time cure Is not
effected or enough relief gained TO
warrant a continued use of the treat
ment tor a while longer the money
will be refunded.
Hyomei is the only treatment for
catarrh that has ever been sold under
mo cure no pay" plan, and the only
one where months trial treatment Is
free unless it cures.
Hyomei is not pill or liquid. Just
breathe it through the neat inhaler
that comes with every outfit, and bene'
! fit will be seen from the first day 9 use.
Breathed in this way, the health-giv'
ing Hyomei penetrates to the minutest
air cells of the lungs, and drives
catarrhal germs and pOisons from the
system.
The complete outfit costs but 81, and
extra bottles of Hyomei may be oo'
tanned for SOC.
Remember that if Hyomei does not
cure you after months trial the
Dawson Drug Co. will refund your
money and the treatment will be abso-
lutely free.

The appearance of bug closely re,

as stated in last weeks News, caused
considerable apprehension among the

which were brought to this office were

the letter aud the specimens to the
state entomoogist
1t Is now believed by many that the
insects are the little bugs that are 80

and the continued drought and close
cultivation OF crops having left moth
log else for their subsistence they
look to the cotton plant as a last re-
sort. The letter of the entomologlst
Is as follows:
"ATLANrA, GA, May 49, l9Oi.-Mr.
z. l.. RatueY, Dawson, Ga. Dear Sir;
Your favor of the l4th inst, addressed
TO Hon. O. B. Stevens, has been re-
ferred to this Office for reply.
The beetles from the field of Mr.
Pinckuey Hannah closely resemble
the genuine cotton boil weevil, and, in
fact, belong to the same family or
group of insects They are, however,
a distinct species, and there are a
number of points of difference between
them aud the genuine boil weevils,
specimens OF which we have here for
comparison. For one thing, the beet
lee which you send have the entire
body covered with minute DOS or pits,
whereas these never occur on the boil
weeyu. Your specimens also have
apou the front femur a minute spine,
whereas tue boil weeyil has always
two spiues upon the front femur.

NOT The BOIL WEEYIL, But RELATED TO IT
the Insect Found in the Cotton Fields OF
Terrell County Will Seriously Inure the Plant Rec
omn1ends That Paris Be Used

am not inclined to blame these insects
/ for the death of the cotton where they
have appeared, although of course IL
is possible that they are doing some
slight injury.
SIN case further close examination
and observation show that they are
actually injuring the young cotton L
would suggest busting the latter with
paris green, or better still with a
mixture of one part paris green and
ten parts air-slaked lime. This MKT
ure can be distributed from sack
made of fine cotton cloth, such as
sheetiug, and the distribution should
be comparatively light. It would only
take a small amount OF paris green,
and in case too much is placed upon
the plants it may scorch the foliage.
Not over three-tourths OF a pound OF
paris green should be used upon an
acre Of cotton. Respectfully yours,
"WILMON NEWELL,
estate Entomologist.
