ARECHECK ON THE
BOIL WEEVL PEST
An Early Emergence Of the
Cotton Pest Is
Noted.

Tallulah, LA aeck on boil
weevil survival throus the past win
ter is being conducted at the United
States department of agriculture's lab
oratory at Tallulah, B. R. Coad, in
charge, announced this week, but the
work is complicated by the weeviPs
unusually early emergence this year.
AS soon as the last cold snap ended,
according to Director Coad, large num-
bers of the weevil left Information, es-
pecially those in the moss, and as a
consequence the live weevil records be-
ing kept by the laboratory are running
somewhat lower than the preceding
examination The number of dead wee
wills found virtually is the same as be-
fore, this, according to the govern
ment experts, probably indicating
emergence rather than mortality.
1t is pointed out, however, that the
figures on dead weevils is not strictly
accurate because a great many of these
fall from the moss after dying, due
to wind action, ETC., through the win
ter months. Their dropping off, &C
cording to Mr.. Coad, is usually a slow
procedure and if there has been any
considerable mortality there would un
doubtedly show some increase in dead
weevils.

New Orleans, La.-American flag
vessels in the gulf trade are carrying
30 per cent of the cotton for export,
against Is per cent last year, says a
statement issued by division head
quarters of the shipping board at New
Orleans Monday. This increase has
been due, it was explained, to the es-
tablishment of regular scheduled sail
ings in the shipping board service to
the United Kingdom and Continental
Europe from New Orleans and Gal
weston during the first of the year.
Without thus far missing a sailing
date by so much as a minute from the
two ports, the managing operators
have maintained a semi-monthly serv-
ice and have removed the sole objec-
ton found to American vessels by ship
pers of cotton and all other cargo, for
that matter, which was the uncertain-
ity of the time for departure.

Low Curved Ball Is
Worry to Babe Ruth

Southpaws make more trouble
for Babe Ruth than right-hand-
ers, despite the fact that Babe
has made a great many home
runs off the portsiders. A low
curve ball on the outside is
Babes worst enemy. Nehf Of the
Giants used such a type ball in
the world series and in one game
struck Ruth out three times.
Because of his peculiar stance
at the plate, it is very difficult
for Ruth to hit a low curve ball
outside. 1t is the curve ball In
side, whether low or high, that
Ruth murders.
A pitcher who has change of
pace and can slow up on Ruth,
also is troublesome to the big
fellow whether he is left or
right-handed. Shocker of St.
Louis and Kerr of Chicago are
such a type. While Ruth gets
his home runs off the deliveries
of these two pitchers, they more
often make him look foolish.
