The Life cycle of the Wccyil
The complete life cycle of the boil
wcrvil takes place in from ten to
tw"!," days depending some on the
weather. The egg stage usually
takes from two TO four days to hatch.
The larIa stage from to 8 days
duration. The pupa or sleeping
stage is from four to six days. The
adult or grown wecvil is true in
sect for the fact that il has the four
stages of it's life cycle, three pairs of
legs. and three divisions OF the body.
Description.
The adult weevils are brOwnish
in color being about IA inch long
and of the beetle family. The pupa

movement of the abdomen. The
larva stage is a small grub or maggot
about 1-2 inch long with only head
and abdomen and is white in color
with a dark line occasionally along
the back.
Damage to COttOn
Only two of the stages of the
wc"vils do damage to cotton, the
adult and the larva. The adults
damage In two ways: by feeding and
laying eggs. The larva damages by
eating out the central part of the

Greece, Turkey and the Powers

King Constantine has gone over to
Smyrna to supervise in person the
Greek military operations in Asia
Minor. and it is interesting to note
that about the same time notes have
been sent by England, France and
Italy asking Greece to postpone her
offensive against Turkey and accept
their mediation. Whether there is any
relation between these two circum-
stances is not disclosed. Judging from
dispatches from Constantinople, Con-
etantine has not had a particularly good
effect upon the troops, many Of whom
are Venizelists and whose loyalty to
the crown is naturally, therefore,
somewhat in doubt. The king, it ap-
pears, has been seeking, since his ar.
rival at Smyrna, to restore the morale
Of the army by appealing to the Hell.
lenic sentiment Of the troops, regard.
less Of political affiliations. But the
Cretans and others, still feeling the
influence Of Venizelos, have been cold
toward these overtures, and military
Judges are inclined to the opinion that
the Greek army as it stands today is
incapable Of q successful campaign.
The fiasco Of the first move against
the Turkish nationalists was due
chiefly to bad leadership and In some

Canada and Bergdou.

Some time ago it was intimated that
the Canadian government might take
a hand in the matter of Grover Cleve-
land Bergdoll, American military de-
serter now sojourning in Germany, on
the ground that he reached Germany
on forged Canadian passport. 1t
has now been announced by the Cana
dian minister Of justice that the gov
ernment at Ottawa has this move
under consideration. This is perhaps
in consequence Of a recent petition by
the American Legion asking the Cana
dian War Veterans Association to
bring the case Of this deserter to the
governments attention.
If Canada can get Bergdoll back to
that country his extradition thence to
the United States will be an easy mat.
ter to accomplish. Official relations
have been restored between Great Bri.
tain and her dependencies and Ger.
many. II Bergdoll actually got away
from this continent through Canada
by forged Canadian passport he is
probably subject to extradition on de.
mand from Ottawa, preferred through
London. It remains to be seen whether
the government at Berlin will sur.
render him II such . regulation Il
