ATTACK ON COTTON CROP
The Cotton Worm in Several Miss.
issippi Counties Conditions
Similar to Last Year.

The cotton worms made their
first appearance this year in practi-
cally the same places as last year.
They are about ten days later but
this is Offset by the fact that the
cotton crop is at least two weeks
behind the crop Of 1911. The
worms have appeared in Alabama
and have already done considerable
damage in Texas. In all probability
the worms will increase rapidly
and the next generation which will
appear early in August may be
large enough to do considerable
damage. 1t is likely that every
county in the State will be infested
before the close of the season. No
one can be sure what these insects
are going to do, but we have last
years experience to help Us. Last
year many planters lost heavily
simply because they could not buy
poison. The demand was so great
that the supply Of Paris green and
powdered arsenate of lead was soon
exhausted.
Last year experiments were car
ried on to determine the value of
poisoning for this insect. The poi
SOD was applied twice-August goth
and August Both. The cotton that
was poisoned averaged 14l4 pounds
of seed cotton per acre. The cot
ton that was not poisoned averaged
only 767 pounds per acre.
The two poisons to use are Paris
green and powdered arsenate of
lead. Paris green is an old poison
and is well known. 1t is more poi
sonous than powdered arsenate of
leaf and one pound is usually
enough for an acre Of cotton. 1t is
likely to burn the foliage if applied
too strong. Each pound should be
mixed with at least two pounds of
fiour-to make it stick better and
to get 1t more evenly distributed
over the plants. Last year the
persons in charge of poisoning the
cotton worms at the Experiment
Station thought the Paris green
was more satisfactory than the
powdered arsenate of lead. Ex-
periments in other states have
shown that Paris green will ma
terially check the fruiting of the
cotton and is therefore not recon-
mended as highly as the powdered
arsenate of lead. The powdered
arsenate of lead is a new poison
that is rapidly replacing Paris
green as an insectlcide. 1t does
not injure the plants and it is
therefore not necessary to mix it
with -four or lime. 1t is necessary
to apply at least three pounds per
acre. but there is no danger of
getting it on too thick as there is
with Paris green.
The quickest method of applying
the poison is to dust 1t through
sacks carried at the ends of a pole
or narrow strip of board by a man
on a mule.

FOR A TRUCK INDUSTRY
Meeting to be Held to See if Profit
able Enterprise Can be
Revived.

There will be a meeting held at
the City Hall in Brookhaven on
Saturday, August 23rd at IL a. m. /,
for the purpose of organizing a
packing association.
1t is proposed that we organize
this association for the purpose of
packing and shipping tomatoes and
other truck. but especially toma-
toes. In this way our stuff can be
sent out under a guarantee that
every crate is the same aud contains
exactly what it is represented to
contain. We can ship or sell in
car lots to responsible parties and
get the true value of our products.
We can save in the purchase of
crates about one-half. by buying in
quantities early in the season.
We will thus avoid the necessity
of having to have extra labor in
harvesting except where the acre
age planted is large.
The expense Of operating will be
covered by the commission the
association charges, which has here
tofore gone together with a large
share of the returns) to parties
who are on the lookout for truck
shipments to speculate in.
The trouble with tomatoes has
not been that they have not been
worth raising, but that we have
not known how to sell them.
Come and bring every neighbor
who is interested and one year
from now you will be convinced,
if not before.

No matter how glaring or in

to the probing busiIy plying 10 our

nual auditing Of the books of all
public Offices. And. as far as that
is concerned. the business manager
and book-keeper of any firm or cor

purpose and conscientious discharge
Of duty, court investigation into
bis financial record each recurring
year. This would save many an
honored name from the humiliation
that has come to some in recent
months and would insure more Of
strength in moments Of weakness
and temptation.
