the tide has turned They poison the
weeviPs drinking water. His drink
is the dew on the cotton leaves in
the early morning. So they poison
the dew and that is the end Of the
boil weevil.
Last year this method was tested
out on an abandoned farm where the
farmer had said, 4 give it up and
had moved. The department divided
the field into three strips; the unpois-
oned strip on one side produced for
ty-eight pounds of cotton, the other
strip on the other side produced sixty
pounds of cotton; the strip down the
middle, where the drinking water was
poisoned, produced 480 pounds of cot
ton. What does this mean to Amer
lea? What does it mean to you that
this department should be equipped to
do these things?"

SAYS ANTI-SALOON
LEAGUE IS DEFUNCT
ATLANTA PRINTING HOUSE
ASKS RECEIVER FOR GEOR-
GIA BRANCH.

ATLANTA, Ga.-Webb & Vary, a
local printing house, in suit filed
this afternoon against the American
Anti-Saloon League to recover I'M
paid printing bills charges that the
organization is defunct; that its re-
cent campaign to raise funds with
which to enforce the laws of the uni
verse and make the world dry was a
fiat failure; charges that $4,000 was
expended in Georgia, including debts
made to that amount, whereas only
$4,000 was taken in subscriptions
that the International or National or
ganization is not only insolvent but
is more than 100000 in debt.
The Atlanta branch of the League,
in the conduct of the campaign in
this State, the printing firm charges,
contracted debts to the amount of
$4.609.58 which the firm has no pros
pect of collecting.
For all of these reasons the petit
ton asks that the court appoint re-
ceiver to take charge of the subscrip-
tons and whatever funds the Anti
Saloon League has, and to apply the
proceeds to liquidation of the debt
to Webb & Vary. The petition furth-
er alleges that the League admits the
debts, but refuses to pay on the
ground that it has no funds. There
are aggregate debts in this section
the petition says, of $4,000 or more.

NEW YORK.-In terms of the ad
vertising manager, Secretary of Ag'
riculture Meredith told the members
of the Merchants Association of New
York today of his ambition to in
crease the output of the departments
e5ief product-service.
Farm Workers
The number of farm workers in
1919, 100000 was contrasted to
the number in 1870, 100000, the
secretary added. That in the five
years, 1916 to 1919, the average pro-
duction of cereals per farm worker
was Ais bushels.
'These figures are interesting" ne
said, "and particularly so in connec-
ton with the high cost of living. If
there are more men on the farm
farming more acres, each acre pro-
ducing more per acre and each man
producing more per man, giving each
and every one of US today more of
the six leading cereals per capita
than we have had before, it seems to
me the farmer is doing his part pref
ty WELL"
Farmers increased during the war
their planting acreage, 100000
he said, and their yield by 635,000,000
bushels adding that this was in re-
Spouse to the departments request.
Secretary Meredith urged the ne
cessity of expenditures for fighting
crop pests"
To Fight Pests
"Take the cotton boil weevil," he
said. "You know the fight there has
been on this pest for years and years.
We have been spending money-and
you have paid some of it in taxes-to
fight the insect. 1t has been discour-
aging work, but the experts of the

STRAW HAT AND OTHER
SIGNS INDICATE SPRING
Seasons First Has Appeared on the
Street. Everyone Just Feels
Like Spring, Anyway.

Like spring, Anyway.
Spring is about upon us. This fact
is proclaimed in a number of ways
A number of ladies have been
seen with spring headpieces, and
straw hat appeared on Main
street yesterday. 1t was Worn by a
man. Same person, displaying the
advance spring styles, including the
straw hat, had the nerve to appear
on Main street. He seemed en-
tirely unafraid, and stalked about
as if he was not doing anything
out of the ordinary.
The boys may be seen flying
kites. Now everyone knows boys
do not fly kites in the winter time,
so spring must surely be upon US.
A game of marbles is not a winter
sport, but one may see boys play
ing with them at this time.
Just look at the stores. They
show evidences of springtime. Their
windows are decorated for spring
and display spring clothes, both for
men and women.
The weather also tells one that
spring is knocking at the door and
is about to be admitted. Yester
day was beautiful spring day. To
day, if it doesn't rain and turn cold
will be another.
After taking all these things
into consideration and breathing the
spring-like air, one is almost pre-
pared to proclaim that spring is
here.

Union Meeting at Des Arc.

September 5th, 1920, Rev. o. Stay
lor and his son began a battle against
the devilat this place in the Baptist
church.
1t was a united effort by all Chris
tians of Des Arc to wage a battle
against sin. For about a week it
seemed that the devil and his helpers
held sway, but, thanks to Almighty
God, there are a few people in Des
Arc who r old -fashioned enough to
pray and they held on to God for vic
tory. The second week God laid the
messages on the hearts of the people
in such a way that folks began to fall
down at the altar and cry out for mer-
cy and pardon in the good old-fash-
Toned way, and the tide ran higher
until people all over the church would
fall down at their seats under awful
conviction.
At this writing 40 have found peace
to their never-dying souls. Such a
wonderful outpouring of the Heaven
ly Spirit is seldomed witnessed in this
day. Such wonderful messages that
came from that man of God we will
never forget. He gave the Gospel,
pure and simple, backed by the Holy
Ghost, and convictions seized their
hearts and the faithful Christians held
on in prayer and "would not be deni-
ed" Bless His name forever!
I can never praise Him enoug h for
the wonderful peace that reigns in my
soul just now. | will shout His praise
in Glory for this great meeting and
for the many souls already saved, and
| have the vision just now that many
more are coming into the fold before
this meeting Closes, O! I am 10 glad
that God hears the cry of His child
rem and answers prayer.
There we're twelve baptized Sunday
afternoon and such a flood of Glory
filled our souls as we beheld them be-
ing buried as Christ was in the river
Jordan, and raising straightway up out
of the water and the spirit of God
bearing witness with their spirits say,
"These are my beloved children" O.,
Glory to His name, forever and ever!
Sunday night such a crowd is sell
dom seen in a community as gathered
at that little church and packed it to
overlooking before time. Several
more precious souls found Him.
Now I want to say right now this
mighty man of God and his son can
surely help any church or community,
if they will call him. They have an
swered the call of God and, Glory to
His name, He is using them. don't
know when this meeting will stop, but
we are obeying the Spirit. s.
