ENTOMOLOGY BOARDS TESTS
FOR BEST COTTON VARIETIES

| fall, with the greatest amount Of cot.
ton at the first pickings. Only few
varieties possesses resistance to wilt
| IN s high degree, and only the best of
| these are recommended for use where
wilt is present.
For Wilt-Infected Land
"In South Georgia where wilt is
present, says the new bulletin, none
but the very best wilt-resisting varie-
ties, such as the Corncil-Toole, Lewis
63, DeSoto, Dixie Improved and Dix
Aft (long staple) should be grown.
In fact, our experiments and the ex-
perience of hundreds of farmers in
trying to grow non-resistant varieties
on wilt-infected land, have demonstrate
ed time and again the futility of at
tempting to grow any but these wilt
resistant varieties on land affected
with this dreaded disease"
Outside of the wilt-infected land in
South Georgia, Cleveland and Cook
varieties can be successfully grown, if
seed of the earliest and best strains
are used. Cleveland is the best all
round big-boll variety, and the Wanna
maker strain is the earliest known.
In all sections of the state where
there is no wilt infection, Express
and Weber No. 40 are the best up
land, long staple varieties to grow.
The Express is the earliest variety;
the Weber is big-bolled, the earliest
strain being No. 40.
For late planting in North Georgia,
outside of the boil weevil limits, it is
usually best to grow the early matur-
ing varieties, such as King, Broadwell,
Bank Account, and so on. None of
these varieties, however, have been
bred for pure seed strains under the
boards direction.
OF the varieties which are now
being bred under the boards direction,
in different sections of the state, pedi-
greed seed of few Of them are now
available through the cooperative
breeders. All inquiries for seed ad-
dressed to the Georgia Board of En-
tomology will be referred to parties
having for sale the purest seed obtain
able of the varieties desired.
The new bulletin gives some vain.
able suggestions with reference to the
growing of upland long staple cotton;
and advises that farmers who are not
familiar with these varieties, should
carefully consider every phase of
growing, handling and marketing
them before attempting to grow them
extensively.
In the bulletin detailed report is
made upon the variety tests conducted
at each point mentioned; so that the
grower may see at a glance which par
ticular variety produced the best re.
suits under identical conditions.

Ministers Live Longest.

Statistics show that a religious life
tends to prolong existence in this
country. and that ministers are among
the longest-liveu individuals. Brain
workers live longer than those who
labor with their muscles, women long
er than men and the married longer
than the single.

THE TOWN CRIER
A Reporter

Though when taken altogether
We're pretty groggy lot
And as heavy as feather
There are times when we are not.
There are times, beg to humble,
When our upper floors commence

With bit OF common sense.
So if you'll take it rightly
That we deign to give tip.
We will touch, perhaps but slightly,
On common mental slip.
When you play up red sensation
In story wild and ions,
And you say with resignation
IT'S the peoples will You're
wrong!
When you say, Il know its's rotten
But the people like it hot
It's the best that can be gotten
For the readers" it is not.
Every reader OF the story.
When he sees the headlines faunt
Says, Il hate this yellow glory
But it's what the readers want"
Everybody thinks his neighbor
Likes to read the thrilling bunk,
While the neighbor tries to labor
Through the stuff he knows is punk.
When you hear of elevation
You declare the folks would balk
If you stopped assassination
And relied on staple talk
Oh the readers! Suffring readers!
How you seem to think they'd storm
If you stopped your flbert-feeders
And adopted type reform.
Several years ago somebody wrote
that the wiser a man gets, the more
he knows he doesn't know. Since
that time, it has become highly pop
ular among the smart and near
smart to admit they don't know any
thing.
Ice men regretfully announce they

all the available supply of water is
frozen up, which makes it very hard
for them.
In fact, even when in liquid state,
most OF the water around these parts
is hard. The bituminous coal man
alone, leads soft life.
A good many food dealers. realiz-
ing they cannot help the country by
actually raising food, have resorted
to the next best thing, and are rails

FEW FAIL TO RESPOND
Liberty Loan Committee Checks Down
to Less Than 800 Who Have Not
Yet Made Good on Their Bonds.

The liberty loan committee worked
all the sales made at the banks with
the committees loyalty cards, with the
result that out of CIT names of per-
sons who were supposed to have re-
fused to respond on the bond sale, less
than 800 now remain unaccounted for.
Some had moved away. Some even had
his rolls year ago. and many had &C
tually purchased at the banks.
Every person whose financial worth
makes it possible for him to buy
bonds owes it to himself and to the
committee to see that his card is clear
in the public records. Nobody wants
the faint of ycllowneSs to attach to
MIN either among MS neisilSoTs, ii the
public records of this county, which
will be preserved by the county histor-
ical society. or at Washington. where
governmental inquiry may subject him
to the charge of dIsloyalty and conse-
quent notoriety.
The committee, composed Of the
busiest men in Marshalltown, has Ia
bored many nights and many days to
put over a million dollar bond sale In
Marshall county, and there will not be
much patience shown to individuals
who plead that they have been too
busy to respond 20 the call that has
been made upon them to volunteer
with their dollars. Every man in this
city can well afford to lose one full
days time and one full days pay. y
that were necessary, to see to it that
he does his full share toward the sup
port OF his government in this war.
He will be expected to go to the city
council chamber in the basement OF
the court house Thursday and clear
himself from suspicion if he receives
a summons from the Eoerty loan COM
mittee. Otherwise his troubles, most
certainly will begin.
