hands and the meetings are but an
evidence that some resistance is 60

The fun of it is in the deliberate
planning and the latter execution of
these plans with religious precision
and faithfulness. There will be farm
ers who will not make bale of cot
tel to the ten acres. They will be
Tic first to proclaim the destructive
nces of the weevil and they will
charge their losses TO Mr.. B. Weevil.
Be it remembered at the outset, these
same farmers are not now making a
bale of cotton to every so many acres.
They have never made more than a
baie of cotton to ever so many acres
of land.
Weevil clubs are not for this class.

force as may be necessary to prevent

so much to save his cotton crop from

been so closely devised that it fooled

believed he was running the weevil
out with a connection which did not
smell good to the weevil. 1t is pretty
generally determined that anything
with a smell that will drive the wee.
VIII will also drive the negro and the
mule and will likewise kill the cot

CADDOCK TURNS DOWN BIG
PURSE FOR MATCH ON lilly .

Earl Caddock, of Anita. world S
champion heavyweight wrestler. has
decided not to engage in any cham
pionship matches for while Mr..
Caddock turned down $4,000 guar
antee for his end for a match in Sioux
City July 4. He also turned down
a match in Omaha July 4, which
would probably draw the heaviest of
any match ever held in this section
of the country. Mr.. Caddock feels
that the public has had calls for do
nations to the Red Cross and many
deserving charities. and to engage in
match at this time would be over
taxing the public purse which he does
not consider good craftsmanship.
''If he does not go to war Mr.. Cad
dock will start his fall campaign and
meet all legitimate contenders. but
will give no notice to sO-called wres-
tiers who are making an effort to Sc
cure a match with him in order to Sc
cure the short end of the purse. This
class of wrestlers will be ignored en-
tirely, said Gene Melady, manager
for Caddock.
Caddock has wrestled five matches
since he decisively defeated Joe
Stecher in Omaha April 8 thereby
winning the championship of the
world. This Is probably more con-
tests than the average champion
would have in a wears time. which
shows the public that Caddock is the
real wrestling sensation of the
world.
