New Use For
Wireless Telephone

Washington, July 1O-A new use
for wireless telephone in connection
with mine-safety and mine-rescue
work, is proposed by the United
States Bureau of Mines. The sugges-
tion has been made that the rescue
cars and trains stationed at various
points throughout mining regions, be
equipped with apparatus, and that
high power apparatus at the Bureaus
safety stations and experimental lab
oratories in the regions be installed to
broadcast hurry up messages in case
of mine disaster.
Aerials have been successfully in
stalled on trains in Germany it is
pointed out, and the Bureaus rescue
and training cars could easily be. So
equipped. In this way, it is said, not
cnly could warnings and calls for aid
be sent without delay to those points
best equipped to offer aid, but mine
salty programs and other instructions
could also be broadcast. Field engi-
neers of the bureau have reported
that the radio is already In wide use
in the different mining cen;ers.

application should be made when the
cotton begins to fruit. The second
application should be made when 10
per cent of the squares have peen pun
ctures. Infestation counts should be
made frequently and can be made by
any farmer who follows the simple d-
rections furnished upon application.
The object is to keep the cotton thor
oughly busted until the weevils are
under control. If weevils should be-
come sufficiently numerous to severely
injure the young bolls, one or two
more applications late in the season
should be made. In case of a heavy
rain within "a hours after dusting, the
application should be repeated immed-
lately.
After all, weather conditions during
July and August will have more to do
with cotton production in South Caro-
lima than any poisoning program. If
these months are hot and dry compar-
atively little weevil damage will be
sustained regardless of what method
of poisoning was used and even If
none is practiced. On the other hand,
if weather conditions are adverse, poi
soning with calcium arsenate dust in
strict accordance with government
specifications will, we believe, give the
largest money returns.
Later the Extension Service will be-
gin its annual campaign for the early
plowing under of stalks, the destruc-
tion of the weevils' alternating quar-
ters, the planting of winter cover
crops, and the saving and use of early
maturing varieties of seed. These are
most important measures in the con-
troll of the weevil for next year.

Insects and Control Measures.
The Colorado potato beetle is prob
ably the most serious insect pest that
the potato grower has to combat, but
it may be controlled easily by spray
ing or busting with parts green, or
arsenate of lead. In spraying, a COM
bined Bordeaux -arsenate mixture,
made by the addition Of to I l-2
pounds of aEsenate of lead powder or
pounds of wet paste to so gallons of
the standard mixture, recommended
for control of blights, may be used
as a control measure for both blights
and beetles; otherwise, spray with 1

Varieties and Time of Planting.
OF the many varieties suitable for
fall planting the Lookout Mountain is
usually recommended as being the
best and most popular in South Car
olina, not because of it's superior table
quality but by reason of it's good yield
and excellent keeping quality. Sub
sttutes for this may be such spring
varieties as the Cobbler and the Early
Rose, each Of which is good but Meth
er of which is nearly so good for the
fall crop as the Lookout Mountain
This crop should be planter from July
10 to about August l depending upon
climatic conditions of the section in
which it is to be grown,-warmer
climates calling for later planting.
Fall varieties amount to very little
when planted out Of season, and this
is especially trut Of the Lookout
