THE BOIL WEEvIL DANGER

The nation whole, and saddest of all, the
farmers of the South have not fully grasped the dan
ger of the boil weev TO the cotton crop Of the south
ern states In ten years the ravages of this pest has
increased six times reaching the enormous total in
dollars for 1921 of over six millions.
The weevil has rapidly spread until it now infests
the entire cotton belt and the estimated damadge
from reports this year indicate that fifty per cent
of the entire cotton crop will be destroyed by the
weeyil.
Calcium Arsenate and other systems of combat
ting the cotton weevil has been tried with varied
results but at the present rate of increasing damage
it appears that something must be done on larger
scale if cotton is to be raised in the United States
many years.
Many OF the countries largest magazines and news
papers are commenting on the dangers of theweevil
and the affect at will have on the cotton industry

A NEW BARLEY FOR ALASKA

All early crops of the Federal ex-
pertinent station at Fairbanks, Alas
ka, matured last year, notwithstand-
ing a frost-free period of only 95
days, according to reports to the
United States Department of Agri-
culture. A barley hybrid, produced
by the station, matured in 80 days
from seed. Seed of this hybrid will
be distributed to farmers in Alaska
as rapidly as it can be produced, and
1t is expected to replace all older
barleys. 1t has stiff straw, a long
beardless head, and hull-less grain,
yields well, does not lodge readily,
and seems well adapted to northern
latitudes.

INSECT DAMAGE CABLES

Insects may damage metals and
other materials, in addition to crops.
According to reports received by the
United States Department of Agri-
culture, the termite Captotermes
niger Snyder is causing serious dam
age to lead-covered cable at the locks
of the Panama Canal. These ter
mites work through the lead, often
causing large opening, and then tray
ell between the two wires of the Du-
pick cable. Since the space between
these two wires is not large, they eat
away the insulation. Another ter
mite, Nasutitermes ephratae Holm
gren, is also very serious offender.
1t does not care for lead, but works
havoc in rubber, cloth, and other in
sulation. Studies on these and other
termites are being made.

BULL ESCAPES
FROM FREIGHT
DEPOT CRATE
Objects to Red Lighted
Switch and Creates
Real Thrill

The passengers on the north
bound "air line" Tuesday after
noon were given a real thrill Just
as the train reached the station
when a young bull that had quiet
" stood in a crate on an express
truck for several hours heard the
call of the wild and broke away.
The animal was evidently fright
ened by the approaching train on
a track parallel to the one where
the train soon to start west was
standing. Breaking the fastening
on the two ropes that held his
nose ring he smashed several
heavy Stats on his crate, jumped
several feet from the truck to the
ground and started up the track.
The first thing that attracted
his attention We a red lighted
switch and after examining it he
continued up the track.
In the me- ntime switchman
Edward Cleary saw the wild ami
NAL approaching and mindful of
that railroad slogan "Safety First"
made a rapid getaway into the
dim recesSes of the Ide coal sheds
The bull continued un the track
and as he neared Portland street
had the highway all to himself.
George Bonneville. the express
agent accompanied by his assist
ant, Mr., Fay, started after the
animal and found him quietly
chewing the cud in the vacant
land near the junction of Bay
street and Portland street. With
skill that would do credit to lion
tanner they APPROACHED the animal
and placing their arms around his
neck led him back to the express
office From there he was led
neighboring stable and the CON
signee received the animal by ex-
press Wednesday morning.
The bull was shipped by the
Appletree Point farms of Burling-
ton to A. f. Bishop. a well-known
Lyndon farmer and aside from a
sore nose sustained no other in
iulies in his somewhat exciting
episode.
