THE SOUTH SPENDING $50.
100000 A YEAR ON ROADS.

Detailed reports compiled for The
Manufacturers Record from govern.
ment figures which will shortly be
issued show that during 1915 the
South spent over $50,OOO,OOO upon
highway work, or an increase com
pared with 1904 of 44S per cent.
This section is spending annually
two-thirds as much as the $4,000,
600 which the government recently
voted to spend during the next five
years in cooperation with all the
States in the Union
Under this bill, helpful as it has
been in co-ordinating the road-con-
struction activities of the country
and that is the most important fea-
ture of it-Florida, for instance. will
secure during the next five years an
aggregate of aDout sS5O,OOO, while
one county In that State recently
voted a bond issue of $1,5OO,OOO for
road work, which is Almost double
the entire amount that the State vii
receive from the National govern
ment for road work during the next
five years.
This is typical of the spirit with
which the South is pushing it's road
construction activities. The stats.
tics given in our Washington cor
respondence on the subject would
show that in the aggregate there was
roads and bridges OF the United
States s2S2.0OO,OOO. of which more
than s5O,0OO.OOO was expended by
the South. This will show something
OF what is being done toward chang
ing our whole country oy supplant-
ing impossible mud and sand roads
by great National highways.

BOIL WEEV|L NOW
IN SALUDA COUNTY?
HAS EXCITED THE FARMERS
All Opinions Agree That Bug
Shown is Genuine Cotton
Boil Weevil.

Saluda, Nov. 6.-From best infor-
nation obtainable here it seems that
Saluda county has been honored by
the first visit of the boil weevil in this
state. An insect, believed to be a
boil weevil, was on exhibition here
Saturday and caused great amount
OF discussion and comment among
those who saw or heard of it. 1t was
brought to town in bottle by Ar
thur Rushton, of the Coleman's
Cross Roads section, few miles
from town. Mr.. Rushton says that
he found it in his cotton and that he
has plenty more like them. He fur
ther states that the boil weevil, or
whatever the bug may be, did con-
siderable damage to his cotton crop
this year.
From the statement of Mr.. Rush
ton the bug works like the weevtl
and is very destructive to cotton
Many who have seen boil weevils ex-
amined the insect here today and
pronounced it a genuine boil weevil
Some specimens recently brought
here from Alabama were compared
with this Saluda county bug and they
could not be told apart Although
they differed some in color, they wer,
about the same size and shape, and
it was noticed that even the weevils
which all came from Alabama diff
fered among themselves in shades
of color.
The insect brought here was
shown to B. B. Hare. OF the United
States Department Of Agriculture.
and he pronounced it as his belief
that 1t was genuine boil weevil. al
though he stated that he was not an
authority on the boil weevil Others
to whom it was shown believed that
it was a variety of the boil borer or
stingaree which bores into cotton
bolls and kills them after they are
nearly grown. c., S. Patrick. county
Aa.m demonstration agent, was not
in town today and has not yet had
the opportunity to pass Judgment on
the insect.
Everybody who saw the weevil
said that it looked like all the pic
lures they had ever seen of the boil
weevil. and others who had seen
specimens from other States gave it
as their belief that it was the same
thing. Mr.. Rushton says that 1t is
the next thing to 1t, and can vie
with the boil weevil in damage to
the cotton crop.
Saluda county farmers are expect
ing the weevil within the next few
years but are not prepared to receive
him with open arms just at the pres
ent, and the finding OF this boil Wee
vii, or near-boll weevil this early
came as bomb among the farmers
An effort will be made at once to
discover the true identity Of this in
sect. and those who saw it today are
hoping against hope that this VIII
prove to be some entirely different
species Of bug.
