Washington, July 8.-Plans for the
federal government to raise barrier
against the boil weevil of the south
western states invading the Atlantic
coast states are being drafted by
Senator Smith, of South Carolina.
Secretary Houston of the department
of agriculture, is said to have given
the proposition his tentative approx
al.
Senator Smiths plan is for the fed
eral government, with state coopera-
ton, to prohibit the growing of cot
ton in a belt which would separate
the Atlantic coast states states from
the southwestern states. AS the boil
weevil migrates only from cotton
field Ito cotton field, the senator be-
lieves this belt would save the states
to the east Of it from the pest, which
has cost cotton raisers in the south
west millions of dollars annually.
NarrOwest Belt in Alabama.
According to investigation already
made, the narrowest belt where
barrier might be raised would be in
Alabama between the mountains
near the Tennessee line and the gulf.
This would be a distance of about
150 miles. The boil weevil already
has swept over Texas, Oklahoma,
Louisiana, Arkansas and is said to
be travelling eastward into Alabama.
Senator Smith is preparing to urge
upon the senate that this narrow belt
will be a practical barrier if imme-
date action is taken to establish it.
If effective, it would protect most of
Alabama and all of Georgia, Florida,
South Carolina and North Carolina
from the weevil.
Must Be so Miles Wide.
The barrier to be effective must be
30 miles wide, it Is believed. The
growing of cotton in that zone would
be prohibited, but the farmers could
raise any other crops.
Senator Smiths plan is to have the
federal governmen compensate the
farmers in this zone for not planting
cotton. He is investigating the ac-
ton of the federal government In
out yellow fever in Louisia-
ma, and in establishing forest re-
serves in order to have precedents
for his plan.
Senator Smith today consulted
Senator Kern, of Indiana, the dem
ocratic leader, and won his approval
to feasible plan to accomplish the
desired object.

been satisfactorily worked on a small
scale by the growers of Paonia this
winter, and fancy prices have been

yertising which resulted
The other plan is a combination of,
first, he three fruit growers associa-
tions in the Grand valley and later the
associations of the entire Western
Slope, along much the same plan as
the Citrus Fruit exchange and the
California exchange of the Pacific
coast.
Extensive advertising of Mountain"
brands of fruit would be done in the
eastern newspapers and magazines.
Those opposed to this plan, who favor
the retention of the old association,
declare that this would be in viola
ton of the Sherman antitrust law.
To avoid this the complete dissolu-
ton of all the associations in West
ern Colorado would be necessary.
Those in favor of the plan declare
that putting the several associations
under one management would curtail
the operating expenses.

was followed by a poem read by its
author Mrs. Plumb, descriptive of the
stress under which poetess labors in

with an inspection of the cartoon by
