RAG WEEVILS-NOTB BOIL WEE
Wills.

Mr.. T A. Bowen, County Agent,
wishes to have the following letter
published fer general information as
&C. the wo"vilS found in the rag weeds.
Do not become alarmed about this
wccvil but keep in mind there is yet
plenty f holl weevls to be found.
Mr.. (. a. Rowen, County Agent,
pckcE.. :. =
Dear Mr.. Bowen
The, wecvil occurring on rag weed
is commonly known as rag weed wee
vii. In the West where it was first
observed commonly on account cC
wccvil invasion. it is called horse weed
wcevil. It's scientific name is Lixux
sylvacus. 1t is not related to the boil
wcfvil and is not injurious to cultivc-
ted crops. A closely related species
is the rhuharb wcevil. which is not
widcsprcad in this territory.
So far as the boil wccvl occurring
in rag weed. we are absolutely safe in
saying that there is nothing to it.
Yours truly.

ABOUT TAXES

Dear Editor:
AS am subscriber to your paper
ana also tax payer of PicKcnS coun-
ty, would you please allow me a small
Space in your paper tor a briel letter
III reply to some letters in the last
issues about lower taxes.
1t seems to me like some of them
40 not understand why taxes are
so much higher than they used to
be. | will admit that we have too
many officers and that most of them
gets too large a salary. But when
we look around over our county and
see all of the new graded schools that
have been built in the last five or six
years we can see where u lot of our
tax money goes. don't suppose that
ten or fifteen years ago there was a
graded school in Pickens county tha,
country child could go to, and now,
most every child in the country has
the privilege of going to graded
school and best Of all we have a law
to make them go and if you will wait
Tor few years you will see some of
the results, when every young man
and woman in our county will have
a good education. And apothcr thing
l want to call your attention to is the
improvements on the roads in Pickcns
county. A few years ago we did not
have top soil road in the county
and now we have such roads between
every town.
And of course all Of these improve
mcnts cannot be made without rails
ing our taxes, and if taxes were to
be lowered of course schools and road
building would come to drag.
What | say about it is let us have
schools ard roads and then pay for
them. Henry Pike.

TO HIS HONOR, JUDGE FRANK b.
GARY.

We, the Grand Jury, beg leave to
make the following pnesentment.
We have passed on all bills handed
us by the Solicitor. We have ap-
pointed the various committees to in
vestigate ten different offices and in
stitutions and report at the next term
Of court.
We have received the report of the
Rural Police and the same is attached
to this presentment. We wish to COM
mend them for their faithful services.
We wish to call the attention of the
people Of the county to the fact that
it is ii violation of the law to allow
saw-dust from lumber mills to get
into the running streams Of the coun-
ty.
1t has come to our attention that
some of the school districts do not
have enough funds to provide for
their incidental expenses and we re-
commend that each District make pro-
vision for these expenses.
We also recommend that the legis-
lature make an Appropriation suffici-
ent to pay a Janitor to care for the
court house and grounds.
We also wish to recommend that the
supervision take steps at once to i'm
prove the heating system of the Court
House.
We wish to thank the court and Of
ficers for their courtesies and beg to
be excused from this Term of Court.
Respectfully submitted,
