1t is the last weevils that 60 into
winter quarters that cause damage in
the cotton crop the next year. If all
Of these were starved out by destroy
ing cotton stalks early there would of
course; be an end of the weevii. While
one car not expect that cotton will
ever be destroyed early and complete
ly enough to accomplish complete
eradication of the weevil, it is true
that to the extent that this is done
the number Of weevils and their DAM
age will be reduced.
Chopping down cotton stalks leaves
stubs that sprout new growth on
which the weevil can feed, therefore,
the only safe way is to uproot the
stalks or else, with the aid of drag
chain, 70 turn them completely under
the furrow slice.
Knowing that many c6ttoE f1fmsfs
do not .plow deep enough to cover up
cotton stalks, the safest general ad-
vice is to uproot the stalks with a
plow and to watch that no new growth
starts up.
AS long as there is green cotton
growth left In the field, the weevil will
be found.
1t will crawl into q lock of cotton
or half opened bur to keep warm and
come out when the sun shines to feed
on the green stuff.
Don't burn the cotton stalks. Let
them lay on the ground. When the
ground is plowed they can be turned
under where they will decay and add
the organic matter which the soils so
much need.
Why not organize community
wide, or countrywide movement for
the early destruction of cotton stalks.
1t means less trouble from the weevijs
next year.

Sheep Industry
Recovering From Collapse

Chicago, Sept. 28.-Five years will
be required to overcome the effects Of
the recent collapse in the sheep indus
try, according to survey made pub-
tic here today by the National Insti-
tute of Progressive Farming.
How close the sheep industry in
this country came to annihilation dor
ing the imitation period is not realized
by the general public" stated the sur
vey. at was all but wiped out. I'M
ported rams were butchered and sold
as meat owing to the collapse of the
market"
THERE'S a mad scramble to get back
into the business now that the market
has retIrned to asatahle level, the sl,r.
vey states, and herds which almost
disappeared are being revived.
The supply of breeding stock, sheep
association officials say, is the lowest
in 2 Oyears and the demand for such
stock on the Pacific coast is the great
est seen in double that time Texas,
Idaho, Wyoming and Montana also
report large demand.
"In the corn belt where the maize
crops can be fed to three dollar NUT
ton, the problem is to find the lambs, -
declares the survey. "It appears tina:
higher price for fat lambs will pre-
vail this fall, despite the present al
titude.
"The institute believes that wood
growing shold be conducted as side
line rather than as an essential in
dustry. Sheep men are in the habit
OF virtually ceasing business when the
wool market is against them, and
then slowly working back when the
tide turns. While the United States
cannot compete in the wool markets
of the world with Australia and Ar
gentine, yet it is unthinkable that the
whole agricultural system should be
thrown out of the balance by ignor-
ing WOOL"

Chicago, Sept. 28.-Consideration
at the Protestant Episcopal triennial
general conference of divine healing,
and the question of giving it official
sanction as a part of church work,
draw attention to the fact that sew

already maintained classes In faith
healing.
Among such churches are the
Church of the, Redeemer, of which
Rev. Dr.. John Henry Hopkins is rec
tor, and St. Chrysostom's, OF which
Rev. DIR. Norman P. Hutton is rector.
The Rev. H. p. Pullin, assistant rec

the purpose of the class at this church
was not to supplant the physician, but
to cooperate with the physician By
strengthening faith and mind.
