THOUGHT BOIL WEEVILS
WERE EATING HIS PEAS

VALDOSTA, Oct. 20.-F. Burnett,
Of Waverly, Fla, believes the Georgia
boil weevil is eating up his pea crop
this year. He has sene specimens
here for Identification, saying he
bought his pea seed in Georgia this
year and two or three stalks of cot
ton came up in the field. He found
the weevils on the cotton and peas
and feared the weevil was attacking
the pea crop. The weevil, according
to Valdosta experts, is not the boil
weevil. .

AN ISLAND CANNERY

A move is on foot to establish
a cannery for Vashon Maury
island. This plan was brought
about by the experience Of many
of the berry growers last season
who produced big crop of fruit
and then could get little or moth
ing out of it-being at the mercy
of the commission merchants or
the broker.
The plan originated with some
of the Cove berry growers and
they have reached out to interest
other sections of the Island with
the result that committee com
posed of Magruder Beall, w, G,
Doyle and W. V. Crosicr was duly
appointed and this committee will
make a favorable report on next
monday night at the Cove Com
munity Hall. To the meeting on
Monday evening every one inter
estcd in the growing and handling
of fruits is asked to be present.
The plan is to establish a can
merry at once TO handle all kinds
of berries next season,
The News-Record most heartily
approves of this undertaking,
hopes it will be kept entirely in
the hands of local parties, that it
will be opened in time to care for
the coming seasons crop, and
under conservative business man.
Iagement, believes it will be a
mighty good thing for the Island
in general and for berry growers
in particular. With such men as
now compose the preliminary
committee, as printed above, at
the head Of such an undertaking,
we have no doubt but that it will
30 through and then prove a pro-
aoumced success. Everybody give
it a boost - it will help the whole
of Vashon Maury.
