UNUSUAL SPREAD OF
THE BOIL WEEVIL

Washington, D. c., Oct. 1.--Under
normal conditions the boil weevil ad-
lances into new territory at the rate
CT about so miles each year, but dur
;ng a period of only two weeks dur
Ing the present season there was an
advance of about 100 miles. This
movement carried the insect into
Georgia for the first time, and 25
counties in that State became in
tested. Several counties in Florida
have been infested for several years
hut 8 additional ones became 'infest-
ell by the same movement. Twenty
additional counties in Alabama were
also invaded. All of this spread
took place between the 18th ond 31st
Of August.
There were several conditions ac-
cording to the entomologists of the
United States Department Of Agri-
culture, which contributed to this
unusual dispersion. One Of them
was the drought in Alabana and
Mississippi, which caused the plants
to cease fruiting and deprived the
weevils of the squares upon which
they prefer to feed. The more i'm
portant condition, however, was
series of very high winds which be-
gan on August Is and blew continu-
ously for several days toward the
northeast. The weevils were thus
carried much farther than they
would have gone by natural fight or
even by the aid of ordinary winds.
The Department has placed all
available forces at work to assist the
farmers in the territory that has
just become infested. Most of the
cotton is now open and this will al
lew an unusually early picking so
that the fall broods of the wee1il can
he destroyed by uprooting and bury
ing the plants or burning them where
necessary. The Department strong
ly urges the burying of the plants
wherever this can be done promptly,
a. the humus thereby placed in the
soil is of very great Importance.
The State agencies are cooperating
with the agents of the Department,
ard very active effort will be made
to reduce the number of weevils to
the extent that will allow an approx
nately normal crop to be produced
next season.
Another feature of the bool weevil
problem which is attracting consider
sble attention is the damage that is
being done in Texas this season.
There is a more or less general i'm
preston in the eastern part of the
cotton belt that the boil weevil has
died out in the State of Texas, but
the Investigations of the Department
show that the abundance of the in
sect in that region depends on eli
matte conditions. During the pres
cnt season these conditions have been
extremely favorable with the result
that the insect has been as abundant
as at any time since it invaded the
State. The lesson to be drawn from
this fact is that the planters in the
eastern part of the cotton belt must
make strenuous fight, and should
realize that since the boil weevil has
not died out either i'm Texas or Mexi-
CO, it is not at all likely to do so in
any other region that may become
invaded. They should adjust their
systems of farming to boll-weevil
conditions without delav.

fronts as they are now developed.
1t would be wise to say that the
real number, counting hundred ac
cessory units drawing rations upor
the very front, top the 100000
r.ark.
Well, if the enemy at this moment
the opening of September, 1915, has
suffered in permanent losses $780,
I0O0-with a great margin OF temper
s.ry losses still in hospital or remov-
ed from the fighting line; if lis total
potential can not. .be-as VIC have
proved that it can not be-much over
the 12,O0O,0OO, and if his front orig
inally demand close on the 100000
what remains?
What remains as theoretical max
irum is easily computable--it is a
tsife less than 100000 reserve man
power, and l have no doubt that some
people would, up to this point in my
argument, draw, from my own figures
Though not acknowledging their
source,) the conclusion that the Teu-
tons had 100000 fresh and hearty
young men ready to fall upon US and
eat us up, unless we speedily accept
a shameful peace.
To begin with, behind the men, on
the absolute fronts there are at least
q million occupied upon communica-
tions in the strict sense of that term
and excluding the bureaus. Next, let
it., be remarked that of set purpose
the enemy has expended in his at
tempt to attain victory, in spite of
failure, his best human material. The
margins he can now call up are, for
the most part, those rejected for ply
seal reasons-those too young or
those too old.
Lastly, if may be excused home
ly metaphor, the provision of the last
reserves of an army can not be COM
Pared to drawing water from a tap;
it. must rather be compared to the
pouring of treacle out of a jug.
Like Southern States in the Civil
War.
When a government is at its last
stretch for men, as was Napoleon in
1915, or as were the Southern States
in the last year of the American Civil
War, numerical calculation upon pa
per begins to fail. The very last hun
dred thousand are not what the first
hundred thousand were. The pro-
portion of auxiliaries to. the fighting
line increases alarmingly. Transport
chokes, provision wavers; the end of
any effort is never exact and clean ;
it peters out.
The Teutons still have many hun
cred thousand in reserve. Millions
they have not. And with the ap
proach of autumn and winter they
approach actually declining numbers
in the field.
We must never lose grasp of the
converse and less pleasing truth that
a decision reached by the Teutons
in their favor would altogether upset
this balance. Supposing one of the
allies to make peace; or supposing
cne of the allied forces to be virtual
ly put out of action, it is manifest
that the fronts here examined would
no longer be the same, and that the
talance the Tuetons would have in
hand for action in a then reduced
field would be immensely increased.

Officials Travel
On Free Passes

Boise, Feb. i3.-There will be
joy among state officials, sher-
ifs and their deputies in the var
ious counties Of the state for the
governor today signed the pass
bills, house bills Nos. 1919 and 1870
the first requiring common car
riers to give them free transport
tation and the second designat-
ing that they are entitled to re-
ceive the passes upon certifica-
ton by the public utilities COM
mission to the carriers that such
transportation or passes are re-
quired. The paSs bill proper,
No. 1870, is blanketed so far as
state officials are concerned and
includes all state officials. The
act was so AMENDED as to permit
their receiving passes when trav-
cling on state business OF other
wise.
Originally the bill carried a
provision that these officials
could receive passes when such
officers or employees are travelling
exclusively in the transaction of
public business" This was
stricken out of the bill through
amendment however. Sheriffs
and their deputies can receive
passes on their travels over the
state, for it is generally recog-
nized that in their line Of work
they are OF assistance to both the
railroads and to the state as a
whole.
The law was also amended so
as to include veterans Of the civ
III war which will be a boon to
many Of the old soldiers wishing
to go from one section Of the
state to another. 1t is believed
the issuance Of passes to the Of
lhcials named will result in the
saving of thousands OF dollars
heretofore paid out for transpor-
tation. Just what attitude the
common carriers will take to-
wards issuing passes is not def
initely known. They are under
stood to be favorably inclined tc
issue the passes.

Sh6rtaee Greater
Than Reported

In letter addressed to the at
torney general Governor AleXan-
der declares the discovery has
been made that the shortage in
the state treasury steal is great
er than shown by the report FL
ed with him by w. H. Gleason,
expert accountant who for three
months has been investigating
that department. The announce
ment created something of SEN
sation. The governor does not
disclose what his discovery is and
refused to give a statement other
than the letter TO the attorney
general. Gleason reported the
shortage to be S92,5t7 embezzled
by defaulting Treasurer o. V. AL
len and his deputy, Fred M. Cole
man, now in the state prison.
The governor disclosed he Is
aware Of a greater shortage in
order to serve warning on the at
torney general, who is preparing
to proceed against the National
Surety company Aliens and Cole
mans bondsmen, to protect the
state. The governor does not
want a settlement made until the
entire shortage is definitely un-
earthed

Extra Session
May Be { allied

Boise, Ida, Mar. i4.-The fact
the general appropriation bill
carrying S6iO,273.5O was not
itemized in detail as finally pass
ed by the recent legislature, the
Joint conference committee hav-
ing revised the items made by the
senate finance committee, there
by blanketing numerous classes
of items that had been carried
as seperate items in the bill, has
again led to reports that an ex-
ira session Of the legislature will
be called TO undo its acts in con-
nection with this important mea-
sure. In the meantime the bill.
unsigned as yet, runs the chance
Of being disapproved in its en-
tirety while the state will under
go the novel experience Of oper-
ating without funds until such a
time as the people can begin to
appreciate the acts of its recent
lawmaking body.
Inquiry at the governors Of
fee failed to throw definite in
formation on the extra session
reports. The significant state
ment was made, however, that the
general appropriation bill re-
NAMED unsigned. The govern
or had not been able to give the
bill the full and detailed atten-
4ion that it requires owing to its
late arrival.
That there is a possibility of
an extra session Of the legisla-
ture was learned from excellent
authority last night. It hinges
entirely, it is said, on just how
far the blanketing has gone III
the general appropriation bill
That will soon be ascertained
after close scrutiny Of the mea-
sure. Governor Alexander in
sisted on an itemized bill. The
bill as it originated in the house
The record. [volume] (St. Maries, Idaho) 1913-1918, 1915-03-19

was not itemized. 1t was passed
in that form. When the senate
finance committee came into pos
session of it a majority of that
committee insisted that it be
itemized. 1t was held by this
committee the governor was right
ir his attitude with reference to
the act being itemized in detail,
as he has the right to consider
it in this form in the event he de-
sired to disapprove of any of the
items it contained. For a time
il looked as though a deadlock
vas possible between the two
branches of the legislature over
the bill, the impression having
been given out the house would
Rotl concur in the senate pro-
gram. This was prevented by
the conference committee com
posed Of members of both houses
Now it appears, however, since
She bill has finally left the leg
islative channels, that many of
the itemized appropriations were
consolidated again by the con-
ference committee with the re-
suit the measure mas not reached
the governor itemized as fully as
had been expected. 1t is this
fact that has again given rise to
reports of an extra session.
