FARMERS To
MEET ON FOURTEENTH

Preston, Ga, Feb. 4-(SpeciaL)-
There will be meetings of vast import
ance to all the farmers and business
men in the immediate territory, AZ
Cussetta, Chattahoochee county, on
Friday, February 10, and at Preston,
Webster county, on Saturday, Febru-
airy IA, for the purpose Of discussing
methods for the control of the black
root or wilt disease in cotton and es-
sential preparations to be made for
the coming of the Mexican boil weey;l
to Georgia. These meetings will be
held in the courthouse in these respec-
tive cities at 10 o'clock in the morn
ing.
1t is of vast Importance to agricul-
ture and to business generally to have
the wilt disease under control when
the boil weevil gets here so that only
one serious cotton problem will nave
to be confronted at time.
The speakers who will address these
meetings and present plans for the
best solution of these problems, are
Commissioner of Agriculture J. D.
Price, State Entomologist E. Lee
Worsham Assistant State Entomolo-
gist A c, Lewis, Ira w. Williams and
Mr. Oliver.
Georgia must continue to grow cot
ton in spite of it's serious pests, says
State Entomologist Worsham The
important thing to do is to get ready
for the coming of the weevil and thus
prevent the Generalization that follows
its first appearance.
One of the most serious pests
known to the cotton plant is black
root or wilt disease This disease
should be eradicated from every farm
in the state before the weevil apears
1t is only necessary to rotate crops
and to grow wilt resistant varieties OF
cotton.
The state board of entomology is
anxious to get in touch with all farm
ers in these counties whose lands are
affected with wilt disease, and will be
glad to supply them with wilt resistant
seed.
I'VE propose to explain to the farm
ers how they can grow cotton in spite
of black root and the weeyil The most
important feature is careful selection
Of seed. Every farmer should know
how to select his own seed scientific
ally, and that is what we propose 70
tell them at these meetings"
Every farmer and business man who
can possibly do so is urged to be
present at these meetings which will
be Of gerat Importance to the whole
country.

would call a peculiar thing-we are

about Penslar Remedies.
For instance. This is the time of
year when everyone takes, or needs

This is the time to get rid of them

Editorial Comment
No Toga for Blease.


(Brooklyn Standard Union)
The defeat of Governor Blease for
United States senator from South
Carolina is decidedly one of the most
creditable things the voters of that
state have done for years. 1t would
have been a severe shock to the
Nation to have this reckless pardoner
of criminals thrust upon 1t.
The area of Blease's official ac-
tivity is abundantly large in South
Carolina, and to have increased it by
making him senator was posi-
bility which the public could not con-
template with equanimity. While it
is true that Biease would not have
been able to turn felons loose if
elected to the Senate. he would prob
ably have found other ways of max
ing himself an Objectionable figure.
1t is sincerely hoped that Blease-
ism has been extinguished by the re-
fusal of South Carolinians to let him
represent them in the Upper House
of Congress-

The Mexican Menace.
(Washington PoSt)

Overshadowed by the titanic strug-
gle in Europe, the situation in Mexico
nevertheless is assuming more alarm
ing proportions and presenting greater
possibilities of trouble for the United
States than at any time since the fall
of Porfirio Diaz. The war in Europe
has turned American attention from
the irritating neighbor on the south,
but the danger there has not been les
sened.
The sinister REFUSAL of Carranza TO
guarantee amnesty to sympathizers of
Huerta or to any of the noneombatants
can have but one meaning. II it were
not his intention to engage in whole
sale slaughter he surely could have no
hesitancy in giving such guarantees
and thus obtaining peaceful control of
the capital. The exodus of Mexieans
from the capital gauges the vividness
of the impression that Mexico City
may be turned into charnel house
when Carranza and his hungry hordes
arrive.
Meanwhile, the breach between Car
rama and Villa has widened. There
is no intention on the part of Car
rama of placating Villa. The latter is
quietly recruiting his forces and wait
ing for the time when his former chief
takes control OF the capital. Villa has
not been invited to join in the march
to Mexico City, and apparently is pre-
pairing for another revolution.
Conflict between Carranza and Villa
was inevitable. An army of outlaws
had been organized and the free and
easy life, the loot and rapine. have
made the outlaws unequal to the task
of adjusting themselves to the ordi-
nary and rather improbable routine
of peaceful occupations.
Carranza has never been any too
careful of the feelings of the United
States. Under the cover of the Euro
pean war he may give free rein to his
army when he reaches Mexico City.
feeling that the United Sttaes at such
time cannot afford to adopt measures
of reprisal. Finally, even though he
should conduct himself with decorum.
there is still the menace of another
revolution, under the guidance of
Villa
American attention naturally is d.
verified to the greater struggle in Eu-
rope, but it would be a mistake for
the United States to relax its vigilance
with regard to the smoking volcano in
Mexico.

Is Roosevelt a Bourbon and Reac-
tionary?

In his speech to the Massachusetts
Progressives at the Arena Monday,
August II, Col Roosevelt said: When
any man comes out in defence of the
Payne Aldrich tariff, he shows him
self, however sincerely, bourbon and
a reactionary."
When he made this statement the
Colonel must have overlooked the fact
that in a signed article in the Outlook
for September II, 1910. over year
after the Payne-Aldrich law took ef
feet, he said: Il think that the pres
ent tariff (meaning the Payne Aldrich
act) is better than the last (the Ding
ley act) and considerable better than
the one before the last" (the German
Wilson law
This is pretty nearly as strong as
President Taft's remark that the
Payne Aldrich law was the best tariff
ever passed and certainly it would
deter most men from demagogie as
saults upon any other supporter of
the Payne Aldrich act.
In his letter of acceptance in 1904,
while the Dingley law was in force, a
law which he admits was not so good
as the Payne-Aldrich tariff, Theodore
Roosevelt said: Surely we have a
right to say that the protective tarih
policy has passed beyond the domain
Of theory. and a right to expect that
not only it's original advocates. but
those who at one time distrusted 1t on
theoretic grounds, should now ac-
quissce in the results that have been
proved over and over again by actual
experience"
The Republican party by platform
declarations Is pledged absolutely for
the establishment Of a permanent
non partisan tariff without prejudice
in every industry touched by tariff
schedules and advise tariff rates prop
er for the various schedules and their
findings. No better plan has ever
been proposed and the proposition is
decidedly Republican proposition for
which the Republican party should be
given full credit. On the other hand.
1t Is acknowledged that Republican
tariff schedules as enacted by Con-
gress in past years are the best tariff
measures the country has ever had
Why attempt to fool Maine voters
into the belief that Progressive tariff
policies are anything but the estab-
lished policies Of Republication?

Boy Scouts, Attention!

The Boy Scouts of Maine and their
parents, scout masters and others will
be deeply interested in the public in
structions by Lieut.. Gen. Sir Robert
Baden-Powell just issued to the thou
sands of troops Of Boy Scouts in the
British empire. The instructions are
in the form Of a statement under the
heading The Great War which in
part follows:
The sudden rush to arms on the
part of the great nations of Europe

lively small incident in Servia. shows
why 1t is so essential to be prepared
at all times for what is possible even
though it may not be probable Also
1t shows how little are the peoples of

impossible between them. This will
De SO until better understanding is
generally established. Let us do what
we can through the scout brotherhood
to promote this in the future. For the
Immediate present we have duties to
our country to perform"
Gen. Baden Powell says that In this
time Of national emergency comes the
opportunity for the scouts to show
that they can be of material service to
their country And they will be util-
lied, says the statement, to take the
lighter work Of men in order that
these might be released to the more
