COTTON CATERPILLAR IS
IN SOUTHWEST GEORGIA
EntomoIogiSt Says MuzzIe
Stock to Prevent Eating
Poisonous Remedy

ALBANY, Ga, July 22.-That the cot
ton leaf worm, or cotton caterpillar,
will be in southwest Georgia almost
before the farmers know it, is asserted
by State F,ntomoiogist Worsham in q
letter to A w. Muse & Co., cotton
warehousemen of this city.
few days ago this company sent
to the state entomologist a quantity of
cotton squares that had been badly
damaged by some kind of insect, ask
ing advice as to what kind of insect it
was and how to fight it. These cotton
squares were brought to Albany by IL.
A. Harris, of Leesburg.
Replying to the query, the state ento-
mologist stated that the trouble with
Mr. Harris cotton was cotton boil
worm, each boil having been punctured
by this insect. Mr.. Worsham advised
the application of arsenate Of lead in
the same way as it is recommended for
cotton leaf worm, army worm, etc.
Said Mr.. Worsham in his letter: IF
you will apply it now it will serve a
double purpose, because you are sure to
have the cotton leaf worm during the
next few weeks. 1t is now in southern
Alabama and will be in southwest Geor-
gia almost before we know It,"
Messrs. Muse & Co. asked whether or
not this poison, even in the diluted
state recommended, was not deadly
poison to live stock. I'VE understand, .
said their letter, "that a mule eating
even a part of a cotton leaf with some
of this diluted poison on it would die.
If this is true, is there not some anti
dote that could be given a mule so af-
fected? We think that the danger to
live stock will prevent a great many
from using it, even should the cater
pillar put in an appearance"
Replying to these queries, Mr.. Wor-
sham wrote: mo one should hesitate
to apply poison to corn or cotton on ac-
count of danger to live stock. 1t is sim
ply a question of application of poison
or destruction of crops. 1t is true that
if stock should eat corn or cotton where
poison has been freshly applied there
will be some danger. but it is such an
easy matter to muzzle the animal and
prevent its eating such crops. There is
no antidote. The only thing to do is
not to let stock eat freshly sprayed cot
ton or corn. There is absolutely no
danger after a few weeks"

Especial Dispatch to The Journal.)
ADMISSION, Ala, July 22-"The OPEN
Ing OF the Coosa river from Rome to
Mobile will mean thousands of dollars
annually to Admission" said Wilson M.
Hardy last night.
Mr.. Hardy is secretary of the Man
ufacturers and Merchants association
at Rome. and vice president of the Mo-
bile Basin association. He arrived in
Admission last night on business. and
expressed regret that Admission was not
represented at the annual convention Of
the Mobile Basin association held in
Rome Thursday.
1T is naturally difficult said Mr..
Hardy, ito arouse the people of Geor-
gia and Alabama to a true appreciation
Of the Coosa-Alabama river, and to what
a commercial asset il will be when
opened for navigation all the way to
Mobile. Transportation rates, like the
tariff, are so intangible and so confused
in the public mind that most people give
up the problem and content themselves
with making the best of bad bargain.
ADMISSION is only 20 miles from the
river, and with two lines Of railroad
connecting her to IL. When the river is
opened, IL will be possible for Admission
manufacturers to ship their products by
water all the way from Lincoln to San
Francisco or New York or Vladivostok.
The Importance Of that fact can be re-
allied. especially with reference to An
niston's pig iron and iron products,
when you consider that il actually costs
more today to ship from here to Mo-
bile by rail than it does from Mobile to
Liverpool, England, by water.
Upon the completion Of the Panama
canal and the opening of the Coosa,
Alabama's iron-and that means the
iron OF the Admission and Birmingham
districts-can be delivered on the Pa
cific coast cheaper than any other iron
in the world. The same is true Of the
entire west coast of South America"
