Another new enterprise of which
Cheraw may justly be proud is the
inventor and manufacturing concern
which is building the Daylight Dew
Boil Weevil Exterminator an inven-
tion of our fellow townsman Mr.
J. NJ. Brasington. This invention is
a horse drawn machine which dusts
calcium arcenic on cotton plants for
the poisoning Of the boil weevil. The
unique feature about the machine is
that it carries force pumps which
forces water thro very fine spray
thereby forming a dew" on the cot
ton plant in day time so that the
arcenic when busted on with the
same machine will stick.
We understand that the machine
has been thoroughly tested out and
works perfectly and large number
of orders for the machines have been
received for immediate delivery.
