Boil Weevii j, Charleston.

Charleston.-The boil weevil has
been discovered in Charleston county.
the insect and the eggs having been
identified by J. A, Burley OF the ento.
mology division OF Clemson College,
working under the State crop pest
commission. Mr.. Burley was in Char.
lesion county during the latter part OF
last week and after an examination
OF several farms found the boil weevii
in st. Paul's township and on Wad.
malav Island. II is stated that the
pest which is so dreaded by cotton
farmers has been discovered on the
farm Of T. G.. Legare at ST. Paul's
township and on the farm OF f. W.
Towles at Wadmalaw. The eggs have
been iden tilted on S. J. Rumph's farm
at Messetts and it seems likely that
other farms are likewise infected. The
boil weeyil has thus reached crops
within ten miles OF the city limits.
The discovery OF the boil weevil in
this county has come somewhat as a
shock TO the farmers OF this section
and the rumor which has been preva-
lent for several days that the cotton
pest has finally reached Charleston
county caused considerable anxiety
and the farmers have been anxiously
awaiting authentic confirmation or de-
nial

liquidation, caused some irregularity
but the tone was generally steady with
May selling up from 29.65c to 29.9oc
and closing at 29S3c compared with
29.75c at the close of the previous
day. The general list closed steady, net
point lower on February and March,
but generally to 10 points higher.
The opening was steady at de-
cline of 6 to II points under Liver
pool selling, and scattering liquida-
ton, but prices very soon steadied up,
on announcement that the heatless
Mondays had been abandoned in all
states south of Virginia. This was
taken to mean that southern mills
would go back to their normal sched-
ules, and the announcement that the
embargo on less than carlot shipments
on one of the lines east of Pittsburg
had been lifted was also considered
favorable feature.
The advance was checked around
80 soc for March by the appearance OF
liquidation and there were reactions of
several points during the early after
noon There was no change in the gem

advices, while reports were received
from Washington that cotton was like
~ to be excluded from the price fixing
bill now under consideration by the
House committee on agriculture. This

trading was more active late in the
afternoon with May and later deliv-
cries making new high points for the
day. July sold at 2930c and the close
was within 5 or points of the best.

New York Futures
New Orleans Cotton

New Orleans, February S.-Conflicting
Influences made for narrow price changes
in cotton here today while business was
restricted by the triple holidays follow
ing the end of this week. Last prices
showed net gains of to points and the
tone was steady during the late session,
chiefly because of the announcement
from Washington that heatless Mondays
had been abandoned in the southern
states Traders with bullish inclinations
took this to mean that from now on those
southern mills which are well supplied
with fuel and raw material may work
full time.
Around the opening the market fell off
. to 4 points, but soon recovered and
went 20 small net advance on the adj
vance of expected rains in Texas. The
upward movement carried prices II to u
