could tell you things so much more
terrible than those have mentioned
that you would not believe me. But
there are only two things to remem-
Der. First, if food stops coming from
America those people will perish.
Second, unless that little nation is
given assistance they will perish from
massacres. In the congress Of the
United States there is resolution
known as the Williams resolution
which advocates recognition Of the in
dependence of Armenia, and asks
naval aid for these people and it Of
fers them financial assistance from
the United States in the form of a
loan. The South Carolina Legislature
has passed a resolution favoring the
adoption of the Williams resolution or
some similar action and l pray you
gentlemen today that you will do
likewise. Let this great nation, so
great that we do not know our own
powers, come to the front as a de-
fender of this, one of the smallest, the
Oldest and most crucified Christian
people in the world.

POISONING BOIL WEEvIL

What is claimed to be the most Of
fective method yet devised for COM
batting the boil weevil is that Of poi
soning it with calcium arsenate. The
method was perfected by B. r. Coad
Of the United States Department of
Agriculture, at the Tallulah, La, sta
ton, after several years Of expert
menting. The weevil is poisoned by
busting the cotton at night or while
the dew is on, using busting ma
chine to apply it. The material poi
sons the dew on which the weevil de-
ponds for his drinking water. The
weevil is killed, but there is another
generation Matching out, so that the
poison must be applied three or four
times at week or ten days intervals
Experiments show that the weevil
can be kept down to such an extent
that they can not do serious damage
The cotton saved Is worth far more
than the cost.
1t is important that the right kind
Of calcium arsenate be used. There
are different kinds, made for differ
emit purposes. The wrong kind may
be too weak to kill weevils, or toe
strong and injure the cotton plant.
There lie no use to begin busting
the cotton plants before about ter
out Of every 100 squares are punctured
by the weevil. It will be waste Of
money to undertake to spray field
thoroughly to when there are fewer
weevils In the field. While 1t will
kill practically all that are alive, the
new hatch will have to be taken care
Of by subsequent sprays. It is not I'D
vised that any one undertake to dIst
the plants with anything else than thu
regular busting machines. The pole
and bag methods has not proven sue
cessful.
The poison material will cost TO
four applications from 50 to 81 pc
acre.

FERTILIZER SITUATION
OUTLOOK FOR COMMERCIAL
|, PLANT FOOD IN SOUTH
Prices Not So High As They
Were, But Materials Are
Reported Not Equal
To Demand

Atlanta, Ga.-A survey OF Inc Ao1'
tilizer situation by those familiar with
It indicates that there may be short
age of commercial plant food In 1920.
The reasons assigned for this are prin-
cipaly that strikes have interfered
with the production of materials. In
addition, there has been some diff
Guilty in obtaining shipments over the
railroads.
To be more specific, the long drawn
out strike of miners in the rock phos-
phate fields Of Florida prevented
supply of rock phosphate being ship
ped to the factories. This and the dit
ficulty of getting prompt shipments
when the mines resumed work, it Is
claimed, has put the manufacture OF
acid phosphate more than three
months behind, besides reducing the
possible supply.
AS to ammoniates or heterogeneous
materials, it is pointed out that the
coal and steel plant strikes greatly
reduced the possible output OF sui
phate Of ammonia. Tankage and cot
tonseed meal are so much in demand
as feed as to be unavailable or too ex-
pensive to use as fertilizers. MI
trate of soda is being shipped in larger
amounts, but not as cheaply as was
expected 1t seems that the demand
for nitrate Of soda in the orient, es-
pecially, has kept up the price higher
than was anticipated.
AS for potash, there is going to be
q fair supply, the first time since the
European war began. A considerable
amount of potash has been shipped
from Germany to France, while there
Is quite an accumulation Of stocks
Of desirable American-made potash on
hand.

ing out information to southern farm
ers urging them to order their fire.
tilizers early and for immediate ship
ment. The reasons given are that
there is toing to be great difficulty
in supplying the demand, and the
sooner it Is known how much the
farmer wants, the sooner the manu-
facturer will know how big job he
has on his hands and how hard he
must work to accomplish as much Of
1t as possible.
It is also stated that the railroads.
are anxious that fertilizers be ordered
early so that they may be able to pro-
vide cars, else there will be serious
difficulty in getting fertilizers deliv-
cred on time. The railroads are also
insisting on full carload shipments,
which makes 1t necessary to have or
ders early so as to consolidate them
into full carloads.
It is stated that the indications are
that there will be heavy demand tor
fertilizers throughout the South this
year on account of the promising
prospects for southern crops. 1t is
stated, also, that the orders coming
In to the factories reveal that the
farmer is now wanting higher grade
fertilizers than ever before.

nected gas tube caused the death of Mrs.
Alice Brady, sixty years old, and her

Mr. Natanson's reappearance in the
mark as a buyer as well as a seller is
rerarded in optimistic q arters as a sign
that the big operators are about to re-

discounts entirely the dampening EFFECT
