.BOLL WEEV|L IN
 SOUTH ARKANSAS
FARMERS ARE WARNED TO START AN EARLY CAMPAIGN BY
 c. W. WATSON.
SHOULD FORCE CULTIVATION
Declares Each WeeviI ounctures at Least Forty 8olls During His
 Lifetime.
Little Rock.

L1JIie ROCK
 The boil weeyil is now prevalent ir nearly all of the counties in Southern i Arkansas. according to the reports of county demonstration agents received ny C. W Watson. state agent for the United States Department of Agricul- ture. The weevil will cause consid.
 erable damage MT. Watson urges.
 unless measures are taken by the farmers to prevent the ravages of the pest If the weather remains wet and cool. there may be several more crops of weeyils before the season is over. Heavy foliage and dampncss may ac- eomplish the same result. even in hot weather
 The most effective way of getting rid of the weeyil is by going through ar infected field and catching the in- seets and destroying them. The eggs may be kept from maturing by pick ing up the infected squares as they fall to the ground. and destroying them. The weeyil appears only in cer- tain areas, and does not migrate until August. The farmers should do their work during the remainder Of July be- fore the weeyil begins to migrate from field to field. During July. il all the infected squares are destroyed and the weevil killed out as much as pos sible. there will be little damage Al ter the first week in August. it is of no use to try to fight tho weevil, for the insects migrate then, and if de- stroyed. another crop may come in from neighbor's field
 Tt is also beneficial to the crop to cultivate it well and force 1t to pro. duce more foliage on which the weevil can feed without bothering the bolls. Intensive cultivation will also help bring the plant to maturity earlier and place it beyond the harm of the in- sect. Each weeyil punctures at least 40 bolls during his lifetime. and pre- vents the growth of at least one and one-half pounds of cotton

WILSON PREPARING
 REPLY ID GERMANY
PRESIDENT WILL CoLLABoRATE WITH SECRETARY LANSING IN
 COMPLETING NOTE.
DETAILS ARE WlTHHE D
Declares There Is Little Likelihood There Will Be Further Discussions
 of Principles Involved.

Washington. - With the return of President Wilson, the formation of the policy to be pursued by the United i States as a consequence of Germany's | last note on submarine warfare will | be begun.
 The president will collaborate with | Secretary Lansing in completing a note to the German government that has bsen tentatively prepared, to be dispatched probably the end of the week
 While details as to the course which is to be followed are withheld, it Is known that both the president and MT. Lansing have practically made up their minds that a definite statement of what the consequence of further violations of American rights would be should be given to the German gov ernment in the next communication. There is little likelihood that there will be any further discussion of the principles involved.
 By the recent attempt to destroy the British liner Orduna carrying a score of Americans, on her voyage to the United States. with no munitions or contraband, officials here feel that the position of the United States as stated in it's previous note has been materially strengthened. They de- clare it bears out the American con- tention that the character of a vessel, her destination and her cargo can be safely determined only by visit and search.
 As yet, official information is lack ing to show whether the Orduna was attacked without warning and what the circumstances were of her encoun- ter with the German submarine. In discussion of the case, stress is laid upon the fact that the vessel was en route to the United States and car rled no cargo of importance, making the attack on vessel carrying Ameri- cans seemingly wholly unwarranted
 A statement Of the circumstances probably will be made by American passengers aboard the 0rduna to the State Department, although the Ameri- can government might take cognizance Of newspaper statements. A thor ough investigation of the facts will be made and a request probably will be sent to the German government for it's report of the affair.

Now that the filmiest of faces are made by wonderful machinery and are 50 plentiful and so cheap, every wom- an should indulge herself in a dainty negligee. If ever there lived a wom- an without a longing for this strictly feminine and most luxurious of be longings she must have been feeble minded. for every well-balaneed daugh- ter of Eve acknowledges their fascina- tion.
 The most enticing of negligees are made of crepe de chine or thin. SUD- pie silk, with laces and ribbons.
 Color plays so important a part in the makeup of these garments that the fabric is the second consideration All the beautiful and rich eolors may be set down as available, and the more fowerlike the better Also the more frilly and frivolous and altogether ir-

In the matter of lingerie one may choose between much-trimmed or lit ue-trimmed garments, providing they are made of sheer, well-woven cotton or linen fabrics The great majority are made of cotton because it is cheap CT than linen, is just as good-looking, and does not muss so easily. Linen Is thought to be more durable and Is therefore sometimes selected for lin gerie which is to be and-embroidered. By comparison with cotton fabrics. such as fine voiles, woven of hard twisted thread, durability lies rather in favor of cotton.
 The best known tub fabrics include nainsook, batiste, long cloth. voile, null. lawn and the fine cotton crepes. One of the first three named is chosen for the great bulk of all lingerie.

 These house gowns are easy to make, as may be gathered from the very good example shown in the pic ture. A long. plaited skirt is set on to a short baby waist having elbow sleeves covered with rows of plating that are edged with narrow lace A wide ribbon girdle with a rosette bow at the front, is tackled over the join ing of the waist and skirt.
 A coatee of shadow lace. with draped sleeve, adds the final touch of dainti- ness and new style feature at the same time. Light pink crepe and cream-white lace make as good color combination as any. but one may consider becomingness and en- vironment and choose whatever is most pleasing.

satin ribbon that adjusts the gown t. the figure. It is finished with an edg- ing of val. The sleeves are made sep arately and decorated with beading edged with val. Ribbon is run in the beading and tied in little bows, with hanging loops and ends. by way of dainty decoration
 The three little figures sketched in the picture suggest gowns more sim ply trimmed but equally pretty. Each borrows the refinement of lace and the glow of color in ribbons. and each is gracefully cut. Thus they embody at fractions that merit the interest and the admiration that women always ac- cord tasteful lingerie.
 Crepe de chine and wash silks are having a considerable vogue in under garments, but they are merely extra luxurious and not more satisfying than the garments of cotton that emerge from the laundry time after time az good as new

The decision of the Crawford Coun. ty Circuit Court in sustaining the act ] of 1913 establishing the Bureau of Vi. tai Statistics and providing for the appointment in each township of a registrar who is to be paid 25 cents for each birth and death notice re ported by him to the bureau, was one of importance to the state. Dr c. w Garrison. state health officer. said:
 Because 25 of the 75 counties in the state had declined to pay the fee until the test case was decided the bureau WAS having a hard time in se- curing registrars" he said. Since this decision there will be no such trouble as it is not believed the case will be appealed.
 Arkansas was the last state to adopt law providing for the record ing of vital statistics and it would have been especially bad had the law been declared invalid. The statistics are of value in the matter of life insur- anee suits, enforcing the compulsory education laws. child labor laws and in ether legal matters. The bureau has calls every day for information con- tained in its files Fifty of the coun- ties paid without protest tue fees given to the registrars. one in each town ship. If the law had been held invalid t would have been impossible to have collected the statistics and to have maintained the bureau"
