HOT WEDNESDAY; ONLY
81, SAYS OBSERVER

The faith of the public in the wea-
ther man was in no wise increased
today by the report of J. M. Bryan,
local Official observer for the U. S.
Weather Bureau, to the effect that
Tuesday was hotter than Wednesday,
and that neither day hung up record
temperature for the season. The
highest so far this year has been "a
degrees, recorded in June and early
in July. The highest reached Tues
day was SO degrees, said Mr.. Bryan,
and Wednesday only 92 was recorded.
Mr.. Bryan is certain that the re-
cent cloudy and cooler, damp period,
permitted the average person to for
get how hot it had been heretofore
and imagine that records were being
broken during the last two days.

CLEAN UP PREMISES
WARNS DR.. CHAMBLISS

please tell the people of Americus
to clean rp their premises, was the
request made of the Times-Recorder
today by DR.. J. w. Chambliss, city
physician and health officer. There
are a good many mosquitoes about
the city just now" DR.. Chambliss went
on, (which are the result of old cans,
bottles, barrels and other receptacles
lying about back yards and vacant
lots, many of them buried in weeds
and their presence unknown to
property owners. These make ideal
breeding places for mosquitoes, hav-
ing been filled with water by the re-
cent rains, and we are now experienc-
ing the result. The law requires
property owners to keep weeds cut
down on their premises, and the city
will make cases against persons who
fail to observe the requirements"

DELTA LABORATORY, Talulah, La.
July 81, The following supplement
to the boil weevil poisoning circular OF
May 10, has just been issued by R, G.
Coad for the information of cotton
growers:
Owing to the rather unusually high
weevil infestation and the extreme
lateness of the cotton crop this year,
we have been recently receiving num-
erous requests for advice about poison
ing under conditions which seem to
cali for rather especial consideration
Many farmers have apparently not
become alarmed about the boil weevll
until their fields were practically taken
nv them and are now insisting on try
ing to get poison and busting ma
chinerv in a hurry for use under these
extreme conditions and it appears that
dusting is being attempted in many
cases where it is absolutely not war
ranted by conditions existing in the
fields. Consequently, there are sever
alpoints which the Department most
strongly urges planters wishing to
poison to consider carefully before de-
Gliding
In the first place, is your cotton al
ready completely infested with wee
wills? If so, the fight will be doubly
hard in attempting to control them.
Starting in with complete infestation
is quite different proposition from
simply holding in check a developing
infestation. We have on numerous
occasions started in poisoning tests
with complete infestation and fore
ed the weevil back sufficiently to
make a fair crop, but remember that
this was under the direction Of exper-
fenced men and also that 1t requires
much more poison per application and
several more applications than would
have been necessary if treatment on
the same cotton had been started
earlier. Starting with a complete in
Hesitation is always very hard fight
and right now is to be considered a
rather poor risk
If your cotton is not already com
pletely infested, are you sure you can
get busting machinery and poison to
YOUR fields before the weevils are prac-
tically beyond control? At present
the supply of poisoning materials is
apparently very short indeed in the
South and almost the only stocks
available are those in few Northern
factories. Shipments from these are
bound to be slow at best and are al
ways subject, of course, to risk of de-
lay. Consequently, before purchasing
any material, every man is urged to
make sure that he will have reasona- !
bic period for delivery before his in
festation is likely to be beyond control !
Another question which should be
considered is whether or not
the cotton is actually worth poisoning |
There is undoubtedly a great deal of |
cotton this year, even in the best pro
ducing sections, which absolutely will
not Justify the expense involved in |
1t has been in the grass so
long and then cultivated so severely
that it has been stunted beyond re-
demption and 1t Is absolutely waste
