be a factor in the future cotton pro

of entomology of the United States
department of agriculture, in its out
line of the life history of this pest,
has brought out among other things
the following facts, which help to
solve this apparently hopeless prob
lem:

on nothing but cotton.

mainly in or near the field Of its dep
relations.
go. Comparatively few weevils
survive the winter and emerge in the
spring.
"(4. The over-wintered weevil
feeds upon the terminal buds of the
young cotton plants until the forms
or squares develop, then the female
deposits her eggs in the squares, ex-
clusively at first, but later deposits
them in the immature bolls.
"(5). The life of the adult weevil
when supplied with food is about 70
days. II deprived of food it lives for
only six or seven days, except in hi
bernation.

from winter quarters the weeyil is
comparatively sluggish and while feed

picked or poisoned.

in the field where they locate in the

Some Are Hard to Convince.

There are a lot Of people who are
wont to speak lightly of the home pa

town and hamlet in the United
States, who think that the paper Is
not read outside small circle Of
subscribers and as an advertising
medium it is not worth very much.
Ardmore has few OF this class.
They do not think it pays to adver-
tise. They seem to think that money
invested in newspaper space is virtu'
ally thrown away. They think that
they are so well known that adverus'
ing is not necessary.
A few weeks ago an article ap
peared in the columns OF the Ard
moreite announcing that the Cham
ber of Commerce was figuring on or
ganizing band and securing the
services of a competent director. II
was not much OF an article and was
not dressed up with a head thai

skeptical one thinks that advertising

merce, and see what he says abou
the matter.
A few days after the article ap
peared the returns began coming

Compulsory Life, Health
and Accident Insurance
For Wage-Earners Urged

Atlantic City, N. J., Oct. lin a
report submitted to-day to the conven-
tlon OF the American Electric Railway
Association, in session here, a special
investigating committee strongly rec
commended compulsory life, health and
accident insurance for all American
wage-earners The committee, which
consists of E. w. Rice, Jr., president
OF the General Electric Company; H.
q. Bradlee, a Boston banker, and
James d. Mortimer, president of q
New York bank. has undertaken to
cover the same ground as that studied
oy the Federal Industrial Relations
Commission and to investigate the
economic status of the wage-earner
and his relations with the employer
The report submitted to-day was
conhned to insurance for wage-earners
one of the conclusions reached by the
committee was that the compulsory
social insurance system of Germany
is the only one that provides reason
ably adequate protection for all work.
crS. voluntary insurance systems
have failed to carry life insurance pro-
lection generally into the lower wage
levels. where it is most needed" said
the report. "In the absence of COM
pulsory regulations the American
workman will go without life insur-
ance protection"
State insurance. the committee de-
olares, has not been a conspicuous
success" and labor unions. as now or
ganized, do not and cannot be expect
ed to provide the insurance needed by
wage-earners and their families" Re-
garding the public pension systems,
the report says that "the failure to
make adequate provisions for the ac-
cruing liabilities under these pension
plans has been the universal short
coming of such administration"
The committee, of which Mr.. Morti-
mer is chairman. plans to devote its
attention during the coming year to
old age pensions, minimum. wage, en-
ployes thrift and the productivity basis
of wages.
