MATES MONEY TO PURCHASE
OLD CAPITOL BUILDINGS.

WASHINGTON, D. C.-There was
jubilation among the workers OF the
national woman's party on Saturday
when announcement was made that by
the gift of $4,000 by Mrs. O. P. H.

chase of the watch tower buildings to
$4,000 Mrs. Belmont gained the dis
tinction of having given more to the
cause of women" than any other in
dividuai, her total gifts now exceeding
S223,000.
The buildings will not be turned in
to a social club, but will be used for a
workshop out of which it is hoped re-
suits of far reaching consequence to
women of the world will come. The
houses are in an excellent state OF pres
ervation and will be furnished. 1t is
planned also to open a restaurant IN
smaller building on the grounds.

An expose of drug addicts in Los

investigator OF the California state

Peoples and his agents have been

before the scandal involving Roscoe
Arbuckle turned national attention to
alleged immoralities in Hollywood, mo-

"We have 10000. addicts listed IN
southern California, Peoples said;
"The condition is astounding. Wen

and unbe1ievably powerful combina-
ton if our program were made pub

It is known that one raid on an eX-
tensive "hop joint" recently was con

FARMERS OF THE SOUTH
FACE GERAT PROBLEM
COTTON GROWERS ARE TRY,
ING TO CHECK DISASTROUS
RAVAGES OF WEEVIL.
is CAUSING HEAVY DAMAGE

Mexican Pest Destroyed $250,00o,o0O
Worth of Cotton Last Year. Fed
eral Government Giving Aid to Elk
terminate the Little Bug.
The south is facing today the great
est problem in its history, that Of the
Mexican boil weevil, which has very
nearly completed its infestation of the
entire cotton belt, and which in the
cotton season now ending is estimated
to have caused not less than $4,000, 600
damage and possibly, according to
conservative cotton men, 100000, 600
damage based on the present price OF
cotton.
The boil weevil has destroyed this
year between 100000 and 100000
| bales of cotton, and if the coming win
ter is mild and IS followed by wet
summer there is no way of even guess
ing the tremendous loss it will cause
| in 1922. The seriousness of the situa-
ton is fully realized by the southern
people, but, to their credit, there is no
sign of panic.
A Permanent Factor.
The boil weevil has become per-
manent factor in the agricultural life
of the south. Reports OF federal agents,
state agricultural commissioners, bank
ers, farmers and business men in every
part of the south are on file in the main
United States experimental and inves-
tigation station at Tallulah, La. These
reports show that in South Carolina
the infestation varies from IS per cent
to 90 per cent. In Georgia the infesta-
ton is about the same
In Alabama, due to the prolonged
drouth, the weevil pest is not so heavy
as in other states. In southern Mis-
souri,, throughout Louisiana, in parts
lof central Texas, in the southern coun-
ties of Oklahoma and southern sec
tons of Arkansas ravages by the boil
weevil in large sections have reached
maximum proportions. In some sec
tions cotton has been left unpicked, as
the yield was. so small that the har-
vesting cost more than the crop would
bring.
Remedies Being Used.
Federal agencies are cooperating
with southern farmers in fighting the
pest and it is believed that eventually
the boil weevil will be exterminated,
but all realize it will be long fight.
! A calcium arsenate preparation work
! ed out by the government experts will
| kill the weevil if applied in sufficient
quantities to the plants during the ma
turing periods.
One result of the boil Weevil inva-
sion has been, to a considerable ex-
tent the Investigation of crops in the
south. The south is now raising its
own corn, alfalfa has become stand
ard crop i'll some sections, and truck
ing has assumed increased proportions.
Farmers are being urged to rotate
their crops, as one more way to check
the spread Of the boil weevil.
