1t is said that the carnival COM

BOIL WEEVIL ON STREET
ONE OF INSECTS FOUND CRAWL
ING ON PAVEMENT MONDAY.

Pronounced by Those Who Claim to
Know to Be the Genuine Next
can Boil Weevil.
When coming to town Yesterday
morning Mr., j. P. Allen saw a bug
crawling on the pavement in front of
the Dawson Inn. Recognizing it as
resembling the hnll weevil he picked
1t up and placed it in a bottle where
II was inspected by Farm Demonstra-
tor Kent and others familiar with
the Mexican boil weevil, who pro-
nounced it to be a specimen of the
cotton enemy.
Mr.. X. S. Worthy was exhibiting
glass jars yesterday morning con-
tanning cotton bolls punctured by the
WeeVll and some grown weevils. The
Dolls and weevils were secured in a
cotton field near Pachitla. west of
Shellman, by Mr.. Worthy and DR..
Crlttenden of Shellman. DR.. Crit
tenden had previously sent some of
the specimens from the same field to
state Entomologist Worsham, who
pronounced them the boil weevil.
There have been many people who
seriously doubted the statement that
the weevil had penetrated this coun-
ty and other sections of the state, but
there is now no doubt that Terrell.
as we'll as other counties in this Sec
ton are face to face with the boil
weevil problem, and it behooves ev-
cry farmer to begin an active cam
paign on the invader.

MesSrs. j. ID. Weaver and L. b. Raines
VIII Soon Receive Number of
Thoroughbred Cattle Also.
Mr.. w, J. Mathis, one of Terrell
progressive farmers, who is deter
mined to face the boil weevil problem
with diversified farming, received a
carload of Shorthorn cattle Saturday,
including eleven heifers for breeding
purposes and % steers to fatten for
the market. The heifers cost him
about $50 apiece, and are beauties.
These cattle were shipped from North
Carolina, where they have already
made cattle and stock raising sue
cess, and where the farmers consti-
tute the wealthy population who live
on their farms in comfortable and
we'll equipped homes.
Messrs. j. d. Weaver and 7. B.
Raines will each soon receive car
load of Shorthorns from North Caro-
lima.
These gentlemen, together with
Messrs. j. r. Mercer, H. A. Petty,
are pioneers in the stock raising in
dustry, which necessarily means di-
versified and progressive farming
and the abandonment of the all-cOt-
ton falIacy, and their lead will be
followed by other farmers who must
realize that the appearance of the
boil weevil increases the cost and I'M
certainty of cotton production.
This movement, led by these pro-
gressive farmers, is no doubt the be-
ginning of an era of prosperity for
Terrell county that will make the
war and boil weevil scare an ulti-
mate blessing.

10000 BALES GINNED IN
COUNTY THIS SEASON

This Is an Increase Over Same Period
For Last Year.
There have been something more
than sixteen thousand bales of cotton
ginned in Terrell county up to date
this season. This number exceeds
the amount ginned for the same pc
riod last year. This is accounted for
by the fact that the weather condi-
lions have been exceedingly favorable
for opening cotton.
1t is conservatively estimated that
the yield this year will not be much
if any over half of normal crop.
