MORGAN DELIGHTS
 HIS AUDIENCES
TALKS AT AUBURN ABOUT BOIL WEEvIL, COW TICKS AND VEIL LOW FEVER MosoUlTo-ATTEN- DANCE STILL LARGE.

Auburn, July S1.-(Special)-The attend ance at the farmers summer school reaches today 222. The wealth of topics seems inexhaustible in variety and lh- terest, and the farmers are unfhagslhg in their attendance and discussions.
 The subjects discussed by Professor Morgan are perhaps of the most lar reaching and vital interest of any yet elaborated Professor Morgan was Tor years connected with the state experi- ment station at Baton Rouge, La, and was actively engaged in waging war against the encroachment of the cotton boil weevil from Texas. He is at present director of the station of the univer- sity at Knoxville Tenn. It is simply won derful the amount of work that he has expended upon, and the amount or ln- formation that he has acquired regarding the boil weevl. the COW tick, and the yellow fever mosquito. He has delivered three addresses on these different topics of the most comprehensive and engaging nature. He says that no system of agri- culture can succeed without the cattle lh- dustry as a basis, and that the cattle lh- dustry in the south is an impossibllity un- iii the tick is obliterated or it's ravages n some way obviated. He thinks the problem capable of solution. In regare to the boil weevil he is satisfied that Tn course of time 1t will encroaeh upon Ala hama. He says it's extinction IS lmpos- sible. and that the only way 10 com bat it is in cultural methods lo use varieties of cotton hat mature early ana after the gathering of the crop pastur- ing the fields, then blowing, then erao- icating the stalks and burning them. Fro- lessor Morgan has highly entertaineu HIS audiences.
