belongs to the class of insects which pass through the winter in dor mant state", said MT. Thomas, it cold weather is the less vitality the boll-Weevil consumes during the wint- CT months. EntomOlogists rave found that the boll-weevil awakens and be- comes active only after the tenn perature has risen to 70 degrees or above for some period of time. Con sequently during a winter where the temperatures vary exceedingly the
 weevil is frequently forced out of hibernation by high temperatures and
 again chilled into insensibility by the following cold weather. Such weather conditions are much more trying on the boll-weevl that Is con tinued cold weather.
 Continued cold weather. while 1t is destructive to insects who hiber' nate in the ground, does not effect the boll-weevil so much as he spends the winter ill old stumps, trees and rubbish and around and under cotton houses.
 Up to the present time the winter has been very wavorable for the sur vival of the boll-weevil now in hibar- nation and there has never been q time when it is so important as now to begin preparations for combating the weevil during the coming sea- son.
 Important measures to consider are winter breaking of lanHs to he planted in cotton, better drainage of all lands where drainage is needed. the destruction of stumps, dead trees and other rubbish about the fields, the procuring of fertilizers on lands where they are needed and the se- lection of early maturing varirics of cotton. It is also highly advisable to secure enough seed for heavv rate of seeding as early plantings require heavier seeding than later r!antirgs. In fact. it will be race to peat tic weevil to the crop by employ l'lg every means for the securing of an early crop.
 "There will be more weev'l pre- valent during the coming season than during the year. 1917 T think, because merely material for the breeding of boll-weevils and the continued cold dry weather has certainly brought the boll7wkeNils thus far into the winter in better condition perhaps than any year since they appeared in Jefferson county. Unless we have alternating warm and cold weather between now and spring it is my opinion that there will be more over wintered weevils next season than ev. CT before and that is all the more reason why earlier prepara tions for the fighting of this pest should be made"

BOUGHT PUBLICITY WITH PRIZE HOG;

Mountain Home, Jan. 5.-George Bodenhamer, a well-known stockman at this place, and widower, made the editor of the Bulletin, local news paper, an offer of 200-pound hog, a year ago, if he would secure him a wife by advertising. The editor ac- cepted the offer and gave him a glow ing write-up on the front page. of his paper that was copied by papers in most all parts of the country. The publicity brought results in the form of over 300 letters and photographs from women in every walk of life.
 Thursday Bodenhamer came in and told the editor that his hog was ready for delivery. He will not confess to his marriage, but circumstantial evi- dence is considered enough to con- vict.

County Agent States That Winter Thus Far Has Been
 Favorable for the Pest.
PREDICTS MORE
 THAN EVER IN 1918
Urges That Farmers of This Vicinity Make All Preparations Possible for the Combating of the
 Enemy to Crops.

That the cold weather during the past several months has not killed the boil weevil and that there will in all probability be more boil wee vii among the cotton crop next sea. son than ever before, was the state ment made yesterday afternoon by c. H. Thomas, county agricultural agent.
 Mir. Thomas urged that the farmers of Jefferson county begin now in making preparations to fight the pest and make all efforts possible to bring about his extermination. He stated that unless the weather be tween now and spring is both warm and cold at intervals the boil weevil will be present in this community next season in greater numbers than ever before, as the extremely cold weather which has existed this winter has not taxed the vitality of the pest, but on the other hand has kept him a state and insensibility and allow ed his to go thru the winter thus far unharmed.
 A large majority of the people fin this vicinity are under the impression that if the winter months are very severe the boll-weevil is frozen to death and will npt be prevalent among the cotton crops daring the summer and fall. However, accord ing to Mir. Thomas, this impression is false and very people really under stand the large amount of vitality that boll-weevil hs.
