CANT BEAT THE
WEEyIL," SAYS GEORGIAN.

Mr.. and Mrs. E. T. Boswell. Jr., of
Sloan. Ca, spent Saturday with Mr..
and Mrs. l.. G. Brady. Mr.. Brady
visited Mr.. Boswell at his Georgia
home several weeks ago and spent
several days looking over Mr.. Bos-
wells cattle farm. He bought several
fine COWS from Mr.. Boswell.
You can't beat the boil weevil,"
remarked Mr.. Boswell to a Herald
representative. "and the man who
tries 1t is going to come out at the
little end Of the horn." continued Mr..
Boswell. "All his life my father had
been welded to cotton. He owned
quite number Of acres of good cot
ton land. He knew how to farm and
he believed till the last that he could
beat the boil weevil. About 20 years
ago began to go back and forth from
Georgia to Texas buying cattle. On
each trip I saw that the boil weevil
was slowly but steadily making his
way towards Georgia. There was Tex
as. then Oklahoma, then Louisiana,
Mississippi, Alabama. then Georgia.
The GeOrgians, like the Texans, the
Mississippians. the Louisianians and
the Aabamians. thought they could
beat the boil weevil. but they found
out they were mistaken. The only
thing that saved me and my father
were those trips I made back and
forth to Texas buying cattle. Every
time l made a trip 1 became more
and more convinced that our day
was coming. and each year 1 persuad-
ed my father to plant less and less
cotton and raise more COWS and hogs.
By the time the boil weevil hit us
we had reduced our acreage to the
extent that we scarcely felt it. Our
neighbors, many of whom were large
farmers. continued to plant cotton
and many of them went bankrupt. 1
know of one large planter who has
something like 900 acres in cotton
this year from which he will gather
about 20 bales He is a man of
ample means and he used every de-
vice money could buy to fight the
|, boil weevil. He planted cotton in
wide rows and sprayed it regularly,
yet the weevil got him. In addition to
raising cattle we make syrup, peanuts
and other food crops. Labor is plenti-
flu; and we keep standing offer of
SO cents a day to any man who wants
to go to work. We don't care how
, many men apply for a job-we will
find something for them to do. The
offer holds good the year round. We
, adopted this rule because there was
actual suffering and so cents a day
, will keep a person from starving"
Mr.. Boswell has made success of
. the cattle business. He made arrange
|, ments while here to ship in car load
of fine cattle during fair weeek which
, he says he is going to sell to the peo-
: pie of Dillon county at mighty close
i. prices. He says he knows 1t is just
question of time before they will
be looking for place to buy breed
cattle and he wants to get in on the
ground floor. Mr.. Boswell also had
with him samples of some fine cane
syrup and placed several barrels with
Dillon merchants.
