DESTROYING BoRERS IN PECAN
TREES

o. M. A, Tenn1lle, Ga, writes:
I have a pecan orchard begin
ming to bear. Very small borerS
have recently killed three trees,
and are now in the trunks OF
three others. What can l do to
destroy them and prevent their
return?
The best way of controlling borers
attacking pecans is as follows: TAKE
a sharp, fine pointed knife and cut
the borers out. The wound should
then be painted so that it will heal
quickly. Trees Should be examined
at least twice year for borers, and
every one which can possibly be To-
Gated should be Immediately killed.
Injury from borers is often encour-
aged by careless laborerS who
abrade or injure the bark of the
trees. Trees which are not making
a hearty, vigorous growth and those
which have been injured by sun
scald are most susceptible to this
trouble. Clean cultivation and liber-
al fertilization of the orchard will
often minimize the damage which
might otherwise be done by pests of
this character.

Are you perfectly sure you
did not make an engagement
with both the young men? I
know girls pretty well, and a lit
tie about boys. Girls are sweet
and dear, but they will tell little
fibs about their love affairs. If
you were innocent of any wrong,
and your best beau took offense,
let him alone. Do not lose your
selfrespect or pride by catering
to a man who is so narrow as all
that, Let him alone. Keep his
presents and ignore him entire
ly. But secretly hold to him if
you care for him. He will event
ually come around, if he cares
anything at all for you. Give him
time. Then, if he does not try
to see you and make up with
you, and you have any presents
given in an engagement form,
return them, but L do not be-
lieve in returning presents given
in any other spirit. Would you
give back the presents you get
on Christmas from any other
friend? A gift is a gift. And
men should not be so free with
their money and buy girls ex-
pensive, presents unless they
want them to keep them. It
may teach them lesson or two.

MARY MEPEDITH'S ADVICE
TO LONELY GIRLS At HOME

Here comes a Moth Carolina girl
for advice. 1 was going with a
nice young gentleman regular until
one night he called to see me without
an engagement. At the same time
[ was going with a boy just once
in a while, and that night the young
gentleman came the other boy was
to see me. Neither of them had
an engagement with me. The young
gentleman and l were very close
friends, but he has not been at my
home to see me since that night
But I went away to his home town
to visit my aunt, and he came to
see me almost every day and night.
I still have his ring and few very
nice presents he's given to- me, and
he gave me his picture the last time
he came to see me. We've not had
any cross words at all. / wrote to
him since 1 came home and before
[ went to visit, and he will not or
has not answered my letters. Tell
me what he means by acting SO. He
says he loves me as dear as ever.
What would you advise me to do?
I've offered him his ring and all the
presents he gave me, but he will not
| take them back. He says he has no
reason for wanting them, as he is not
mad with me.
Please answer this letter in the
paper. PET.

The Uned States Supreme court on Monday uphed coh-
stutional prohibition. In sweeping decision the court
declared that prohibition amendment to the constitution
is valid and held that the Noscad enforcing ut is
stituo1al The courts action that the Nolstead
law prohibiting the sale OF any beverage containing one
half OF one per OF alcohol must be enforced
in the Union regardless OF whether the state
has ratified the a,andment State laws providing for
higher acoholc content has been enacted i'll New
Jersey, Wisconsin and Rhode Island nulliMcd. The
decree after three months legal attacks the law by the
liquor interests and complete victory for the
federal government and the prohibition forces 1t is so
far reaching that it settles for all that national pro-
hibton will stand until tile prohibition amendment is
from the constitution by the action OF tee-tourths
of the states All contentious made by the most sEiliu
lawyers swept aside
The press dsatchcs tell that Johnson arrested
in Colorado Springs for cruelty beating horse and
pay fine OF SIS and receive Is lahes with
the whip he used on the horse. No could be
induced administer the iashes No doubt Johnson de-
served the punishment bit glad nobody else
brutal as Johnson could be found.
The late census gives New York City population
5621,l54 making it the populous city in the world,
1t will probably be before the city OF Yerngton
reaches such huge populations but i'll the years
is good bet that rapidly proportion
present number than Gotham WILL and that citi
will be worth money per capita than those OF the
big Eastern metropolis.
