PRICE WILL APPOINT
FERTILIZER INSPECTORS

Atlanta, Ca, Aug. 11-An interest
ing question has come up in connec-
ton with the race for commissioner Of
agriculture as to who will make the
appointments for fertilizer and oil
inspectors for the next two years, and
the law shows that regardless of who
is elected these appointments will be
made by ]. D. Price, the present COM
missioner.
The point came up in connection
with the charge brought against ]. ].
Brown that Mr.. Brown and his friends
are promising inspectors appointments
as inducements to get people to vote
and work for Mr.. Brown in the pri-
mary.
The appointments for the year just
passed during which Mr.. Price has
been commissioner were all made by
Mr. Prices predecessor and he had a
perfect right to make them under the
law. When Mr.. Price came in there
were few vacancies for him to fill
and the same law and same situation
now hold good for the coming term.
Whether Mr.. Price is elected or de-
feated he will make all the appoint
ments for the next two years, and
even if Mr.. Brown we're elected, he
would not be able to make any ap-
pointments.

GREAT PEST OF COTTON
Seen in SOUTH GEORGIA
Cotton CatGrpilIarS Are In
Thomas County
pointnentS

Sumter county farmers are free of
caterpillars, so far as known, as their
appearance in the fields has not been
reported in Americas. However, con-
tinued wet weather and absence Of
hot sunshine is calculated to promote
the growth of these destructive insects,
once they get strong hold in the
rank cotton. Caterpillars now, along
with other troubles besetting the far
mer, would prove blow, indeed
E. Lee Worsham, state entomologist,
has been telling farmers and others
of the appearance in Decatur county
of the cotton caterpillar, having re-
ceived reports recently from two
agents in south Georgia Mr.. Worsham
was quick to point out how this pest
can be checked, if not exterminated.
He declared that Paris green in the
proportion of one pound to fifteen or
twenty of flour or slackened lime,
busted on the plant, is a good remedy;
also powdered arsenate of lead, one
part to eight or ten parts. The pest
eats off late cotton leaves. 1t was
not expected until September.
c. S. Spooner. agent of the depart
ment in Thomasville, will help the far
mers fight it in that section.

Enough Rouge TO
Paint British Fleet.

Doubtless there is enough rouge inn
ported at present to give the whole
British fleet nice coat of paint
There is but one consolation; we
will not have to bear the odious com
parison between our morning and ev-
ening appearance.
Maybe being deprived of massage
creams, consumer of time in making
various rotary motions on our faces
and other means of cultivating our
beauty, we shall turn to cultivating
our brains. That would be a dire
calamity. We shall then fulfill the
prophecy of that hateful old college
professor who said that the woman of
the future would be bald-headed and
would grow hair on her face, because
she would develop gray matter, and
would neglect her complexion.
