Horrors of War.

They were in the squad under train ing at q certain military center and furnished a contrast not uncommon these days. One was tall and wiry, the other short and puffy, and an hour of Swedish drill had set the lesser of the two blowing hard.
 T can't stand much of this" he whispered. I'm simply all in," and at that moment the drill sergeant inti- mated that he would give them an- other spell before they were dismissed
 This was too much. The podgy pa triot felt it was time to protest.
 'Im really awfully sorry to seem unmilitary in addressing you, sir" he said, "but this Swedish drill is more than can face in my present condi- tion; besides" he added dolefully. T never knew we were at war with Sweden"

PINK BOLLWORM SITUATION

It is believed that there is no longer danger that the pink boliworm will be- come established near Hearne, Tex, fol- lowing it's discovery in cotton field at that place two weeks ago, This opinion was announced by the United States de- partment of agriculture today. Twenty five entomologists of the department and Texas, in charge of a force of 400 labor CTS, have been at work around Hearne for the past week and a half They have uprooted and burned all cotton from 20 fields aggregating 105 acres in a radius of nearly half mile of the Hearne oil mill, and have carefully examined grow ing cotton over a much larger area. It was from infected seed brought by the Hearne bill from Mexico that the insect found in an open field is supposed to have escaped.
 In addition to the first insect diseov- cred in an eight-acre field. second was found during the clean-up operation in a nearby field of p acres. No other pink boil worms were encountered. and it is confidently believed that the infes- tation did not spread beyond the two fields.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1917-10-04

The labor employed in the destruction of cotton around Hearne was paid for ny the federal horticultural board. Farmers were reimbursed for the destroyed crops from a fund made up by public-spiritea planters and business men of the neigh borhood.
 The situation is now believed to be so- favorable in the vicinity of Hearne that the 25 entomologists who have been at work there have been Lrverted in small groups to the 10 other oil mills in Texas which received cotton seed from Mexico prior to the enforcement of the quaran- tine November 1 1915. These special ists will conduct in the vicinity of the other mills intensive examination silni- lar to that made near Hearne. If infes- tation is found, the fields will be de- stroyed like the infested fields near the Hearne mill Even if no infestation is found, the fields nearest the cotton mills will be cleaned up as a measure of pre- caution. All cotton and seed of the pres ent years crop from fields in the vicinity of the Il mills will be so treated as to eliminate danger of spreading pink boll- worm infestation.
