The scourge, in the opinion of many
newspapers, is being taken altogether
When it dawns on the people that
the price of cotton and all cotton
goods is directly affected, they do not
believe the country will take 1t so
I calmly. Apparently, we are already
feeding half our shirts to the boil
weevil. Last year it destroyed 10
per cent of the cotton growing in
the United States. An Associated
Press dispatch from Washington
stated that the Department of Agri-
culture report for 1927 gives the dam
age of the boil weevil at G,277,000
| bales of cotton. This is an increase
of 80 per cent over 1920, and the end
is not yet. Reports coming in for this
year tend TO show a considerable in
crease over 1921. Last month alone,
the damage is estimated at $4,000
bales, and if the rate of destruction
keeps on going up, 1t may soon
amount to a million bales a month.
| Since the production of cotton for
1921 was altogether some 7,954,0O0
bales, the boil weevll with its con-
sumption of over 6,000,000 bales was

chinery is driven by electricity gener-
ated miles away and transmitted
through cables. The harvester the
threshing machine, the mower and the
trGctOr-drawn plow have supplanted,
to very great extent, human labor on
the farm. Farming, as 1t Is conducted
today, could not be carried ON without
the aid of machinery.
Yet with all the advance that has
been made in labor-saving machinery,
one Of the worlds greatest and impor-
tant crops-cottOn--is still gathered
by hand, just as it was 1000 years
ago.
Now, however, comes cotton pick
ing machine. operated by electricity,
which may be destined TO revolution
lie the business of cotton growing.
This machine, according to its promo
tiers, has demonstrated that 1t will pick
cotton four times as fast as IL can
be picked by hand; that the cotton so
gathered contains much less dirt and
trash than is the case with hand
picked cotton, thus giving the cotton
higher grade, which commands Il
correspondingly better price; that 1t
will reduce the amount of seed cotton
needed for planting.
This machine, the invention of a
Memphis (Tenn.) man, represents ii
years of study and experimentation
on the part of the inventor.
II consists of set of two revolving
brushes operated by a flexible shaft
and incased In frame or head, n few
inches in diameter; the frame hav-
ing an opening large enough to admit
q cotton boil. The frame or head is
attached to flexible tube two inches
In diameter and about twenty feet
long, connecting 1t with the receptacle
In which the cotton is deposited by
the machine as 1t is picked. Part way
down the tube is small electric
motor which drives the flexible shaft
that revelves the brushes. Al tie
opposite end Of the tube from the
brushes is combined suction and
blower apparatus, driven by another
motor. The entire device is suspend.
ed on a flexible frame so evenly bal
anced that child could swing 1t In
any direction necessary to bring the
brushes into contact with the cotton
bolls.
-Four of these devices are assembled
to make up a machine, and the four
sets are mounted on tractor which
is driven by gasoline engine. This
engine not only drives the tractor
through the field. but runs genera.
tor which supplies electricity for oper.
ating the motors. Thus the cotton
picking machinery is operated nj d
speed which is constant and uniform,
and quite independent of the move
ment OF the tractor.
Five rows of cotton are covered AT
each trip, each of the four lines OF
tube being carried TO the Individual
cotton plants by the employee operat-
ing IT, The brushes revOlve toward
each other, and when they are brought
into contact with the cotton they
guther It up with comb-llke move
ment. AS the cotton Is freed from the
plant it Is drawn into the tube by sue
tion created by the motor already men
toned and carried along to the con.
tainer on the tractor. On its way TO
the container the cotton Is subjected

plantation near Little Rock, Ark,
showed that men who had been pick
ing 100 pounds of cotton day by
the hand method could pick 400 pounds
day by the use of the machine. aud
this after only q few dnys' training
This gain in speed means that the
planter is able to gather the cotton as
1t ripens and before It's value has been
deprecated by the weather 1t is said
that but half the cotton crop of the
South is now picked before it has
been Injured in this way.
1t also means that the amount of
labor for which the planter must now
make provision in order to have suffi-
cient number of hands available to
pick the cotton will no longer be nee
essary. He will not have tn provide
means for keeping this labor en-
ployed at other times Of the year in
order to have 1t on hand during the
cotton picking season
Incidentally, this will pave the way for
the more general adoption of the trac-
tor and other farm machinery in the
South, which has not hitherto been
adopted to the extent that it would
have been had there not been so many
employees available for plowing, plant
ing, and other farm work.
The Importance of gathering the cot
ton as it ripens lies in the fact that
picking cotton is not ike harvesting
wheat or corn or any other crop
which ripens at one line. Cotton
picking extends through two months
or more, the cotton plant producing
three distinct crops. The price re-
ceived by the grower for his cotton is
determined by the grade and the length
of its fiber or staple. The grade of
cotton Is its quality in regard to color,
cleanliness and the amount of damage
done In ginning.
When the cotton becomes ripe ahd the
bOll opens, the color is creamy white.
or white with a bright luster. This Is
the color necessary to make the high
grade. When the ripe cotton is left
unpicked In the field 1t steadily de-
creases In weight and the dews and
rain dull its color. When left unpIcked
through the storms of November and
December. the cotton becomes stained
yellow or blue from exposure and mil
dew. Stained cotton grades much low
er than that which Is picked white,
and sells for IA much lower price be-
cause the fiberS are weaker and the
cloth made from II will not take dye
evenly and appears "blotchy." To
secure the highest price cotton must
be picked as fast as 1t rIpens, and
while II is white, and the electric cot
ton picker makes il possible for the
grower TO do this.
In the meantime the cOtton-growing
South is genuinely scared over the boil
weevil scourge.

posed the other day in the senate that

GREAT RECORD OF DISARMAMENT CONFERENCE FOB
PEACE ON EARTH EVIDENCED BY SIX COMPLETED
TREATIES AND MANY DECLARATIONS OF
NATIONAL POLICIES

Washington, Feb. 6.-The history
making conference on the limitation
of ornaments and Far Eastern ques-
tions came to its end today with the
signing of treaties and a farewell ad-
dress by President Harding.
With its work characterized by Mr..
Harding as "the first deliberate and
effective expression of great powers,
in the consciousness of peace, of wars
utter futility," the great conference
went to its niche of history to await
the judgments and developments of
the future.
In the great assembly hall of the
Daughters of the American Revolu-
tion where all it's open sessions have
been held, the delegates of the nine
nations assembled marched in turn to
space at the great green baize table
and affixed their signatures to the
treaties and agreements which are all
parts of the structure built to lift
from war worn world the burden OF
excessive naval ornaments; to pro.
mote the peace of the Pacific; to give
new bill of rights to China and tC
remove from the Far East, particu
larly the clouds of war. And as each
delegation affixed signatures, its
plenipotentiaries pledging the honor
their respective nations to the gooC
faith of the settlements agreed upon
the great audience expressed the
hopes Of the world in its loud and pro
longed applause.

EDITORS PLAN BIG
Time IN MONTANA
National Convention VIII Bring Hun
dreds of Best Writers in Two
Special Trains.

The National Editorial association
In a recent issue of the monthly Bull
letin which it publishes, makes the
following comment upon the annual
convention which will be held in Mon
tana next July. The association will
tour Montana stopping at various
cities going to and returning from
the convention. At Bozeman these
men, numbering 800, viii stop for a
day and VIII be entertained by the
business men here. An effort is being
made by the association to have Pres
ident Harding accompany them.
Here is what the executive secre-
tary of the association says of the
trip:
This years convention Of the Ma
tional Editorial association will be
held in the city of Missoula, Mon
tana, with side trips over the state
and including visits to Yellowstone
and Glacier National parks. In many
respects it viii be the best tour that
has ever been Offered the association;
many courtesies have already been
assured the delegates, among them
special concessions in the Parks.
Montana is truly a wonderful state
and those who participate in this
Seeing America" trip will indeed be
astounded at the magnitude of the
resources of the Treasure State. The
hosts are determined that the editors
shall be given a true western well
come and they have many plans in
mind for their entertainment and
pleasure. These will be a revelation
to those who have never visited Mon
tana which possesses perhaps more
scenic attractions than any other sec
ton in America.
Montana is a great empire in It
, self, the third state in size in the
whole galaxy of states. It's resources
are marvellous, almost beyond belief.
i 1t is true the country is new as COM
pared with some other sections of
! America, yet its cities are as progress
sive and up-to-date as those to be
found elsewhere.
Very shortly valuable data regard
ing the convention and trip viii be
mailed every newspaper man in this
: country. It is very likely that the
party will have to be restricted as it
will not be desirable to run more than
two special trains because of the ac-
commodations to be secured in the
Park. Full information will be sent

BISHOP w. F. FABER
HOLDING MISSION
Services Being Held Daily At st.
James Episcopal Church by
Bishop of Montana.

The Rt. Rev. William F. Faber, D.
D., bishop of Montana Diocese of the
Episcopal church, began a series of
mission services at the st. James
Episcopal church last Sunday. Bishop
Faber will conduct three meetings
each day for the rest of the week
at the church.
Known throughout the state of Mon
tana as one of the most forceful
speakers in the church, and with a
delivery most pleasing, the sermons
preached by Bishop Faber hold the
attention of his hearers. Those who
have not attended any Of the mis-
sion meetings should avail them
selves of the opportunity. The mem
bers of st. James parish are very
fortunate in having the bishop with
them for an entire week and should
not miss any of the services.
Each evening during the sermons
Bishop Faber viii answer questions
that have been placed in the "ques-
tion box" the evening before. These
questions are in keeping with the
series of sermons discussing the re-
ligious life of a Christian.

Ralph Schuyler Gives Illustrated Talk
to Rotary Club IN Developing
Electrical Power.

Earnest Edsall presided at the
Tuesday monday meeting of the Ro-
tary club in the absence of L. w.
Truitt, bringing credit to himself for
the thorough business-like manner in
which he handled the meeting.
A special feature of the day was
an Illustrated talk given by R. L.
Schuyler, manager of the Bozeman
plant of the Montana Power COM
pany. A motion picture reel was
used showing the power plant at
Great Falls, Mr.. Schuyler describing
and explaining the many details of
the various parts of the plant as they
were shown.
In taking up the subject the speak
er recalled the statement of an east
ern man made several years ago,
which caused all corporations to suf-
fer from prejudice of the people for
long time. He then told of the in
vestment made by the power COM
pany and the desire of the company
to render a service that will give the
people square deal, increase the serv-
ice and reduce the cost of the service
The company places men in charge
of the various plants and offices who
have come up through the service
and know every feature of the work
When a strike is on, Mr.. Schuyler ex-
planned, there are no strikebreakers
called in. The company depends upon
those in charge of a plant effected tc
keep up the service. He illustrated
the methods used by telling of an in
stance of a strike in Butte, during
which the manager, and other Off.
cials did the work of those on strike

At the conclusion of the ceremony
of signing, President Harding deliv-
cred his address formally closing the
conference as he formally had opened
it little more than u weeks ago.
The president, as he read slowly
from his manuscript, frequently was
halted by bursts of applause. At the
conclusion of the address, the Rev.
Abernathy stepped forward and pro-
nounced the benediction.
"May it be in the heart of every
nation and every man." he beseeched,
"to hasten the bringing of the era of
good will"
The prayer ended, Secretary Hughes
raped with his gavel and at 11:19
o'clock announced:
"The conference is adjourned sine
die"
The final session of the arms con
ference was called to order just after
10 o'clock this morning.
