A Victim Of the Storm.
Mr.. Sam Mccall, of Glover, who is
advertising his farming implements
Tor sale today is one of the farmers
who was so hard hit by the storm of
August 8. Mr.. Mccall was renting
land from Mr.. M. L. Smith, and was
expecting to make thirty or forty bales
OF cotton along with corn enough to
do. He had good crop and the yield
would likely have been up to expecta-
tions. AS 1t Is he gets about three
bales Of cotton, and although Mp.
Smith was inclined to waive all claims
he insisted on giving up the half. Since
the storm, Mr.. Mccall, who is a first
class brick mason, has been laying
brick on the mill at 1915 a day. When
asked yesterday about his plans, he
said that he was not definitely decided
as to what he would do. The thing
that concerned him most was to pay
off the obligations he had incurred for
supplies and labor in making his crop;
but that he seemed to feel sure that he
could manage somehow.
To Get Rid of Anthraenose.
This, sent out by H. w. Barre, state
pathologist, is timely, and is published
In the hope that 1t may be of benefit to
some OF our cotton growing readers:
"A number Of articles have been writ
ten from time to time on seed selection
as an important factor In controlling
anthracnose. There seems to have
been some misunderstanding about
the kind of bolls from which 1t Is safe
to select seed. When the investigation
was first undertaken here, we secured
results which indicated that 1t was
safe to pick healthy looking bolls for
seed from diseased stalks Expert
ments conducted for the past three
years prove that this Is safe. Last
season our worst diseased cotton was
where we had planted seed from
healthy looking bolls taken from stalks
which contained diseased bolls. The
same thing Is true this season. We
are confident now, therefore, that 1t is
necessary that seed be selected only
from healthy stalks We have been
able to get rid Of anthracnose in one
season by carefully selecting seed
from stalks which show no sign Of
disease and which are not near diseas-
ed stalks. No seed should be selected
from a stalk which has single dis
eased boil. After such cotton has been
selected for seed 1t should be ginned
on gin that has not been used to gin
diseased cotton or on gin which has
been thoroughly cleaned II this is
done and then the disease-free seed are
planted on land which has not been in
cotton for one year, anthracnose will
be eliminated"
