! The truth of the matter is that
many of our leading citizens here IN
Brunswick and Glynn county have
come to the conclusion that we must
develop our back country, as we de-
! velop our city, if we hope to grow
and prosper as we should.
There has recently been awakened
in the community new thought and
new movement along this line all
| over the county and many of our pao
pie are giving it real consideration.
R. D. Miller, the agriculturalist, at
the Community chool, is among those
of our citizens who have been think,
ing and working on the subject as .
result of the new agitation he has sent
the following communication to Ti4e
News, which we believe is interest
ing: q
e
cat this time of the year three very
common insect pests are to be found
attacking cabbage plants. Probably
tie mcst common pest is the green
cabbage worm which can BE- success
fully combatted with arsenic of lead
spray to which soap has been added
to increase the cohesion Of the spray
One pound of arensic Of lead aitG,
three pounds Of soap will make fiftV
gallons of spray. Use the same pro
portions for smaller amounts.
"On the under side Of the cabbage
leaves will sometimes be seen small
graenish or brownish insect that caus-
ese the leaf to curl and eventually
die. This insect is the cabbage aphts
and is killed by tobacco or nicotine
40 sprays. Cigar stumps or tobacco
Of most any form may be used 10
n axe tobacco spray. The spray should
be the color of tea and should be
Tade of one to three pounds of to-
bacco, two to five pounds of soap TO
fifty gallons of water Since the iE-
sect is found on the under side of the
leaves care should be used to get the
spray to that point.
Two other insects found both or
cabbage and turnip leaves are the
Harlequin cabbage bug and the four
teen spotted punctata. Both of these
insects have from nine to fourteen
spots on their backs and are yellow
brownish or reddish in color. Upon
being disturbed they fly and are hard
to locate sometimes. The spray of ar
senate CT lead recommended for cab
bage worms is also used in combating
these bugs.
"The common mole cricket or
ground puppy is a very hard insect
to manage. Poisons are ineffective
against him. Some birds, however,
eat quantities of ground puppies. Es-
pecially is this true of the purple
grackle. Where this insect becomes
pest il would be a good idea to EN-.
courage birds in the neighborhood by

JURY AWARDS
 BELLOWS $500

George H. Bellows was awarded $500 by a jury in Superior court, at the conclusion of his damage suit against the Campus Restaurant and Lunch company. An award of $10,- 900 was asked, it being alleged that negligence in the car and lighting of a stairway leading to the basement wash rooms of the restaurant caused the plaintiff to suffer a fall on Sep ternber 2, 1919.
 Subsequent to the accident Bellows suffered injuries which did not show at the time, eventually causing partial paralysis of the left side and making him unfit to work at his business of selling insurance. The defendant de- nied negligence. and produced expert witnesses to prove that the physical condition of Bellows since the fall was not due to the mishap in the restaur ant. The Campus lunch was formerly operated at the location of the Shelf field dairy lunch on John street, The case was hard fought and of some length. It was heard before Judge John E. Keeler who accepted the verdict of the jury, which was imme- diately discharged, thus completing the term in Superior court.
