WILL HOLD MEETINGS
In SOUTHERN GEORGIA
State ERtOmOIOgiSt viii Visit
Section

Atlanta, Ca, March Am order 10
make further plans to meet the coming
of the boil weevil to Georgia this year,
State Entomologist E. Lee Worsham
will hold a number of meetings this
month in certain counties in southwest
Georgia where it is liable to strife
first
The dates set for these meetings, all
of which will be held at 10:30 o'clock
in the morning are as follows:
March II, Sylvester, Worth county.
March IL, Moultrie, Colquitt county.
March 10, Donaldsonville, Decatur
county.
March Ia, Blakely, Early county.
March Is, Fort Gaines, Clay county
The boil weevil is almost sure to
strike the extreme southwestern Sec
ton of Georgia this year. A year ago
it was only so miles away from the
Georgia line in South Alabama, and
its rate of travel has been from so to
100 miles a year and even more.
Mr.. Worsham has been requested to
return and hold meetings in the south
western border counties, because they
are sure to be infested by the boil Wee
vii this year unless something unfor-
seen happens. He will be accompanl
ed on this trip by Mr.. A. C. Lewis, as
sistant state entomologist; either Com
missioner of Agriculture J. J. Conner,
or Assistant Commissioner ]. j.
Brown, and a representative of the
United States farm demonstration
work.
These second meetings are held in
response to requests from the counties
interested, and it is proposed to take
up the entire matter anew The pur-
pose of the meetings will be to tell the
farmers just what it is necessary foI
them to do and to instruct them in the
use of improved methods, including
the planting of early maturing variet-
les of cotton which should be well
fortified and cultivated rapidly.
The organization of the farmers into
cotton clubs to work in cooperation
with the state department of entomol.
ogy in developing these new and i'm
proved varieties will be sctill further
perfected.
The past winter has been an ex-
tremely mild one and it is probable
that the boil weevil will cover a much
wider area than at any time in the past
three years. For this reason, Mr..
Worsham found it advisable to retur
to Decatur, Early and Clay counties,
as it will strike those counties some
earlier than anticipated.
These meetings are of the utmost i'm
portance not only to the farmers, but
to every citizen of the counties inter
ested The boil weevil will strike at
the very vitals of the business and
finincial life of the community, and 70
successfully meet the problem, active
and general cooperation is essential.
Every farmer, lawyer, merchant, doc
tor and others interested in the well
fare of the county should attend these
meetings. There is not one of them
WHO cannot do something to help.

Standing In front of q hostelry
one day, old chap, and, being a
biggish bit undecided as to
whether I should engage a con-

by rawther seedy driver of a

sirous of obtaining patronage
rather than permit the taxicabs
to have it and urged me as fol-
lows:
"Hey, Chawncey, pass up

does look like Noah's lifeboat on

~ NCE upon a time there was lit.

daughter should marry. and sc
one day he called her to him and told
her 1t was time she chose a husband.
Tell me the man you would wish tc
marry" he said to her. and I will find
him.
SHALL he be short or tall. fat or slim
shall he be dark or sunny haired, and
shall he be grave looking or with a jolly
face?'
II will wed when find a man unlike
any other man have ever seen." replied
the princess, for she was a willful lass
and did not want to marry until she de.
decided for herself.
Very we'll" said her father. Il will
wait until you find such a man. but dc
not put 1t of too long"
But a year went by and still the prin'
cess did not wed. Every man who came
into her presence she would dismiss by
saying Il have seen a man who looked
like this one
At last King kofa would wait no long
er, and he told the little princess ht
must marry at once.

face with walnut oil. which made II

then he mounted a coal black horse and
set out for King Kofa's palace. for he
knew II he married the little Princess
he would be able to get all OF King
kofa's lands and money. and this was
what he wanted. OF course, King Kofa
did not recognize him. and while he did
not think he was very nice to look at
still he rode a beautiful black horse.
and was dressed In the richest kind OF
robes, besides being followed by many
servants.
The little Princess drew back when
she beheld him. but King Bore said.
Your highness wished to wed man
unlike any one you had ever seen. I am
that man, and you cannot refuse to wed
me-
Seeing there was no way Of escape
the Princess said she would marry him.
and King Kofa ordered a big feast to
be prepared, and the wedding took place
at once.
The Little Princess-or Queen she was
now-rode away with her strange-look-

his name. and he took her to his castle

When they arrived she was shown to
