blance to the destructive little insect.
The News forwarded the bugs
brought by Mr. Garrett to Hon. o. B.
Stevens, commissioner of agriculture,
with the request that he hand them to
the state "bug man" and secure his
verdict. No answer has yet been re-
ceived from Mr.. Stevens or the ento-
mologist.
Mr.. NJ r. Holman, who farms east
of Dawson, and MIR. J A. Ferguson, of
near Graves, have also found some OF
the same kind of bugs on their cotton.
The insects seem to suck the sub
stance from the stalks, and wherever
they have appeared the cotton has
died.
The News does not believe that the
little bug is the boil weevil, though
there are many who Thick that it is.

FROM CALF OF THE LEG TO ANKLE
a SOLID SORE. y

Three years ago q common boil ap-
peared on the calf Of my limb. Not yield
ing to simple home remedies, cons Gited
o physician, who prescribed a poultice,
fax seed, supposedly. BY some fearful
mistake I was given corrosive subli-
mate, and after having it on for a few
minutes I could endure the pain no
longer, SO took off the application and
found that my limb from the calfto the
ankle was in an awful condition. 1 i'm
mediately sent for another physician,
who told me L had been poisoned. My
limb from the calf to the ankle was one
solid infamed sore. I was advised to
begin s. 8. s., and improved rapidly
under it's use, but about this time had
an attack oftyphoid fever, and this set
tied in the original sore. This, of course,
caused q back set, but having confidence
in the ability of s. s. s., began it again
as soon as I was over the foyer, and to
make a long story short, was completely
and permanently cured. Two years have
elapsed, and have never had return Of

TRAINING WORK
Corbett and Nelson Prepar-
ing for Contest Before
the Hayes Valley Club
GETS DECEMBER PERMIT
Board of Supervisors Allows
Yosemite Club to Conduct
Exhibition Next Month

Young Corbett and Battling" Nelson
have begun training for their battle be-
fore the Hayes Valley Club during the
last week of this month. Nelson is in
fairly good shape, as he has been &C
lively fighting during the last year. 1t
is nearly a year since Corbett has en-
gagged in a battle and during this time
he has taken on many pounds Of su-
perfiuous flesh, which will require some
hard work to get off.
In Nelson Corbett will meet one Of
the strongest fighters he has ever en-
countered. 1t will not do for him to
enter the ring in the same condition
as when he met Hanlon the first time.
Nelson is unusually game and has a
hard blow. Though he is regarded as
all awkward boxer he has style in
which his opponent finds hard to guard
against.
The Yosemite Club has not decided
the attraction it will give the public
in December. The winner of the Cor
bett-Nelson fight and Britt would make
a strong card and 1t is likely that they
will be matched.
The Board of Supervisors yesterday
by vote of eleven ayes to five noes
adopted a resolution granting the
Yosemite Club a permit for pro-
fessional boxing exhibition during De-
cember. The Police Committee rec
Commended the granting of the per-
NIT. The vote on the resolution was:
