constitution. This element, which has
steadily defended the Mexican con-

Wall street agitators when the latter
called for Il war of conquest by the

that Mexico had caught some of the
industrial revolutionary spirit Of Eu-

permit him to run the presidential

At one time, before the constitu-

decree making strikes and strike

CASE AGAINST SANDERS.
Anderson Man Refuses to Surrender
His Office.

Columbia, March 10.-The petition
of G. c King, of Anderson, and the
state of South Carolina against J.
Lion Sanders, former sheriff of An
derson county, will be heard in the
Supreme court Tuesday morning,
March 80. Governor Cooper recently
revoked the commission of Sanders
as sheriff of Anderson county for al
legged immoral conduct, and appoint
ed King to the office. Sanders has
refused to surrender the office, and
King is petitioning the supreme
court for relief The court decided
four years ago that the governor
could not remove a sheriff, but as
Sanders is an appointee to fill out
the unexpired term of former Sher-
iff Joe Ashley, the governor acted
under the statute which allows him
to remove an appointee.

HOW TO KILL WEEtlL.
Prof. A. r. Conratii Sums Up Import
ant Facts.

Clemson College, March 14.-The
Association of Cotton States Ento-
mologists held a call meeting at
Vicksburg, Miss. Prof. A. F. Con-
radi, chief of the entomology divis-
ion of Clemson college, who attend
ed this meeting. says that there was
a large attendance of entomologists,
representative Of state departments
of agriculture, extension workers,
manufacturers and planters.
Among other things the boil wee
vii situation was discussed in detail,
especially with reference to poison
ing in 1920. Following are some
facts and conclusions gathered by
Professor Conradi at the meeting:
1. Experience shows quite posi-
lively that successful poisoning de-
pends largely on using proper ma
chimes built particularly for this
work.
2. Attempts at poisoning with the
bag and pole method or with the old
types of busting machinery proved
unsuccessful in 1919.
3. Though several manufacturers
are interested in producing properly
constructed busting machines, pro-
duction is yet necessarily limited and
only comparatively few machines
will be available in 1920.
4. Farmers should make sure of
a. suitable machine before buying
poison, which is useless without ma
chine.
55. The supply of calcium arse
nate, the approved poison, is greater
than the supply of machines neces
sary to dust it.
6. The manufacture OF calcium
arsenate is by no means standa rdized
and is used for various purposes be-
sides poisoning weevils.
z. A special calcium arsenate pro-
duced is needed for weevil poisoning
for satisfactory results.
8. The specifications of the Unit
ed States department of agriculture
for this material should be followed,
namely:
Not less than 40 per cent. arsenic
pentoxide.
Not more than OTIS per cent. wa
ter soluble arsenic pentoxide.
Density not less than 80 or more
than 100 cubic inches per pound.
9. The buyer should secure con-
tract to this effect and, upon receiv-
ing the material, send sample taken
from different packages for free
analysis to Delts Laboratory, Tallu-
1ah, La
10. Analysis are made free and
as promptly as possible. Instructions
for collecting samples can be had
from 'Delts laboratory or Prof. A. F.
Conradi.

In order to enjoy your meals, to do your

Pale, weak, nervous people frequently

way to supply the iron is to follow the
example OF Mr.. Clayton Wooten, of Scot
land, Ca, who used Ziron Iron Tonic and
has this to say about it:
81 have taken Ziron according to direct
ions and can truthfully say that it is a
fine tonic. 1t has done me all the good.
Since began taking it, have gained eight
