NEW METHODTO
CONTROL WEEVIL
Worked OH In Florida But Be
Iicvcd Possible In This
Stale

GAINESVILLE, Fla, Nov n (By
the Associated Press.)-BulIetins
were being sent out today by the
State Plant Beard of Florida detail
ing at length the improved method
of Controlling the boil weevil" as
evolved by Dr.. George D. Smith, as
siatant entomologist Of The board,
and announced Saturday night by
DR.. Wilmon Newell, director.
While expressing confidence that
Florida growers Of upland cotton by
following the new method are assur-
ed Of at least 90 per cent of a nor
nal crop, DR.. Newell points out at
the outset that Dr.. Smiths expert
ments were made under Florida con
ditions and thc method evolved is
adapted to this state, bat there seems
to be no reason ION theoretical
grounds at least" why the method
cannot successfully be adapted to all
sections OF the cotton belt.
The substance Of DR.. Smiths plan
is to clear the fields of wecvil infes-
tation early in June and then give
the staple free growth until August
when the annual immigration Of the
weevil sets in. The staple has grown,
however, to such an extent by this
time shat harm from the weevil then
is unconsequential.
In this state, the bulletin points
out, the crop is usually made" by
August Is.
DR.. Smith recognized in the begin
ming of his experiments that the boil
Americus times-recorder. [volume] (Americus, Ga.) 1891-current, 1922-11-14

wcevil could be effectively poisoned
before it reached the quares" or
flower bracts OF the plant. His inves-
tigation therefore had to 10 with rid
ding the plant of the last of the over
wintering wecvils which appear later
and deposit their eggs on the squares.
His plan evolved meets this obsta-
Gle by the simple process of removing
the early squares and then thorough
ly disinfecting she boil itself with
poison His experiment disprovcd
the belief that removal of the carly
squares would lower the cotton yield.
mi this state, the bulletin contin-
ues, by removing the squares early
in June and cleansing the boil, the
plant then has almost as long a pc
Rod in which to set fruit as it en-
joyed in normal season prior to the
coming Of the wcevil.
AT first thought the bulletin
continues, 1T may appear that
considerable amount of cotton would
be destroyed, or lost, by removal Of
the first few squares, say, an average
of about large squares to the plant
throughout the field. 1t has been
demonstrated that the cotton plant
normally sheds about so per cent of
its fruit during the growing season.
Therefore a loss of two squares to
the plant on the average, should not
affect the yield.
Nothing that the planter has at

AT THE RYLANDER

One of the most important book
ings at the Rylander for the coming
season is The Cat and the Canary
the famous mystery play now in It's
second season at the National the
alter, New York city and which will
be seen here on Thursday, Novcm-
Der 16.
The Cat and the Canary is by
John Willard, actor, artist, cowboy.
miner, and army aviator, who
thought out the thrilling story while
bombing the Germans who is now
reaping the reward Of having written
the most sensational drama success
of many years. One New York
critic described this play as zone that
Poe might might have written, :"
while another warned his readers
that, The Cat and the Canary will
make every hair on your head on
end. incidentally the play is repletc
with fun and romance in addition 10
the innumerable startling and in
genius situations.
Thomas Harold saw "Thc Cat and
the Canary" last week in Atlanta ana
says:
"Americus, Ga, Nov. u, 1922.
MIR, Walter Rylander, City.
Dear Sir: I understand that The
Cat and The Canary is to show as
your theater Thursday night, Nov.
/ 9Th. | only wish to say that saw
this play in Atlanta last week. 1t is
one Of the strongest plays l have ever
seen. 1t is on the order of "The
Bat" but in my opinion far excels
it in that it is full of humorous situa-
tions, that go far to relieve the
tension Of the play. The actors arc
all fine; not stick in it. If the
people here want to get many a thrill
for their money and like good clean
play, well acted and filed with su,-
prises, advise them to see this play
Use this as you like, Walt, or not at
all, as you prefer. l mean every
word of it. I took my daughter and
several other Agnes Scott college girls
to it, and they enjoyed every moment
Of it. Yours truly

ter-Isvers from Albany, ElIavilIe,

the spirited music of the splendid

pnunciation the shades of the depart
ed spirits of minstrelsy in Al G.

came down on the assembled min
strels in khaki costume, it was one
continuous roar of fun and laughter
and thunderous applause from a well
pleased audience.
And the performers appreciated
enthusiastic acceptance of their eff
forts, for not only once did they re-
spond to an encore, but many times
doing superb dance acts, and singing
again and again verse and choruses
Of the songs giving such general joy:
The audience went wild with
cheering at the appearance Of Las

a handsome suit of crimson satin,
with touches of white, who sang and
danced and joked to the hearts con-

portrayed an old plantation scene,
with the pickaninnnies and the
stunning banjos, the cotton fields
and the moonlight on the river, with
Old Black Joe and Nanny sitting
before their humble cabin. In per-
feet keeping with this scene, old
plantation melodies were sung as the
steamboat race between the Natchez
and the Robert E. Lee was viewed.
A unique feature Of the musical
attractions was the superb rendition
on the piano-accordian by an artist

touch and determined resonance shar-
ed honors alike. The entire program
was a rare treat, the scandinavian
folk songs making special appeal,
and the audience deemed themselves
fortunate as listeners. A return en-
gagement is hoped for and no one
should miss it. The following num-
bers were given.
