Human Interest Stories of
Police Court Happenings.

In Again.
The reform school don't always re-
form.
For Instance-Chancellor Payne. He
it
Last November thcy let Payne out
on parole.
The reform school authorities looked
over his record very closely-they
thought sure that when they turned
him loose on the community he would
surely behave himself.
Well-he did for a while. But the
novelty soon wore OF.
To Payne, being good was such
lonesome job.
So he swiped a watch. Then he
swiped another one.
But he bungled both jobs SO that
the cops soon had him again.
His parents heard about 1t and II
worried them most to death.
He is only I7-and apparently he
knows as much about crime as II he
were twice that age.
1t was clear to the court that Payne
didn't appreciate his freedom.
He couldn't see where he had any
duty towards society in general.
And SO there was nothing to do but
to send him back-and IL he does not
behave himself now. he has four years
confinement ahead Of him.
They Never Forget.
Once there was a man who thought
that a woman could forget.
His name was Tobias Hit. And he
Irene Brenner.
Said offense committed about six
months ago, consisted Of smack
ing Irene in the kisser when she re-
fused to let him kiss her.
1t was at a dance. Toby had brought
Irene there and he expected that she
was going to devote her entire at
tention to him-at least during that
| occasion.
But she did not. She talked with
| other men. She danced with other
men.
Toby and Irene had a spat about
this matter. Then they made up.
And Toby then asked for q kiss
Irene said no.
'Ah Will git 20 70 dat ef It takes
million yeahs," Irene is reported to
have said after Tobias's open palm
had landed across her lips.
Then he ran. He ran for six
months, because he knew that Irene
would keep her word.
A cop picked Toby up at the Union
Station with warrant already made
out.
He was foolish enough to come back
to town. And now he Is in jail for
thirty days.
Let EN- Scrap.
Some people have mighty queer
pastimes.
Bessie Francis and Lulu Richard =
son, two laundry girls, found time
hanging heavy on their hands one
evening last week. -,A-' -.
And Bessie, it seemed, suggested
to Lulu that they while the hours
away by seeing who could call the
other the worst names.
After about a half hours contest,
Bessie won out
We can't print what she called
Lulu-it's too scandalous.
Anyhow when Lulu found herself
beaten at this game, she became
possessed of burning desire to get
even. - ..s..- -a...
So she picked UP a pitcher and
let Bessie have it on the coco.
Then Bessie suggested that they
both go outside and fight 1t out.
They did. A cop came along and
caught both in the act of lighting.
Loose hair and hairpins were all
over the place. Both girls had
their clothing torn.

In regard to fighting the boil weevil.

quent cultivation of the cotton; third,
the thorough and persistent fight on
the boil weevil; and, fourth, to the
rather dry season in July and August
which was detrimental to the increase
of the boil weevii.
Warning To Farmers
As the yield of cotton has been so
satisfactory this year in many sec
lions of Georgia, 1t is feared that many
of the planters will wish to increase
their cotton acreage next year. The
State Entomologist desires at this time
to warn the farmers of the loss that
may result from this, for, il the sea-
son should be rather rainy in June,
July and August, favoring the develop
ment Of the boil weevil, they might not
make profitable cotton crop. He adj
vises the planters not to plant more
than five to ten acres of cotton to the
plow, depending upon labor conditions,
so that they can fight the boil weevil
and cultivate and fertilize the crop as
it should be under boil weevil condi-
tons.
The Georgia State Board Of Ento-
mology conducted quite an extensive
series ofsdusting experiments at VAL
dosta on the control of the boil weevil
by busting the cotton with calcium ar
senate and other similar materials.
These busting experiments, while
somewhat encouraging, did not give
the results desired, and hence no rec
concentrations can be made at pres
ent for the control of the boil weevil
by busting. The experiments, how
ever, will be continued next year on
larger scale, and it is hoped that if
the Board is able to continue this
work for series of years they may
be able to develop method Of COZ
trolling the boil weevil by busting, if
such a thing is possible.
The Georgia State Board Of Entos
mology will issue bulletins in the near
future, giving the results of their va
riety tests and other cotton expert
ments for 1918, and parties desiring
copies of these or other bulletins
should write to A. c. Lewis, State En-
tomologist, Atlanta, Ga.

that time to the present it has grown
in the confidence and estimation of its
yearly increasing number of users.
Through all these years it has steadily
grown in popular favor.
Its wonderful building up power is
shown in the experience of Mrs. e. E

The Cordele dispatch. (Cordele, Ga.) 19??-1971, 1918-12-04

Atlanta. Ga, December 4.-(Special.)
The State Entomologist announces
that the State Board OF Entomology,
In cooperation with the Bureau of
Entomology, United States Department
of Agriculture, Washington, ID. c.,
has just completed its survey of the
northern limit of the boil weeyil In
Georgia for 1918.
THE boil weevil has been found this
fall as far north as in the following
counties, beginning on the west side
of the state and running to Augusta:
Chattooga, Floyd, Barlow, Cobb. Full
ton, DeKalb, Rockdale, Newton, Nor
gan, Greene, Taliaferro, Warren, Nc
Duffie, Columbia and Richmond In a
few of these counties the boil weevil
was found this year somewhat further
north than it was last year. This will
make the boil weevil line for 1918
about the same as it was last year.
For this reason there twill be no
change made in the quarantine regula-
lions for the remainder of this year.
Next spring the quarantine regulations
may be changed somewhat. The slow
advance of the boil weevil this year
in Georgia is largely attributed by
the State Entomologist to the hot, dry
weather we had in July and August.
With Us For Five Years
The boil weevil has now been in
Georgia five years and has not yet
covered the entire cotton growing sec
ton of the state. 1t has, however, ad-
vanced steadily each year, and if a
favorable season for the development
of the weevil should occur it may
cover the remainder of the state in
one season. The damage to the cot
ton crop in Georgia from the boil vice.
vii this year was not as great as it
was expected to be. 1t did, however,
do considerable damage in a number
of counties in the southern part of the
state, where more rain fell than in
other sections.
In cotton variety tests conducted by
the State Board of Entomology in diff
ferent sections of Georgia, the yield
was very good, in fact better than
last year. The yield in these tests
will average from three-fourths to a
bale and half per acre under boil
weevil and wilt conditions. In the
ten-acre boil weevil experiments that
were conducted in over 100 counties,
the yields will run from two-thirds to
bale and half peg acre. In these
