GOVERNMENT RULES
 TOPOISION WEEv|L

Directions for poisoning boil weeviis with calcium arsenate, prepared by the government department of agri- culture, were kindly furnished the Log Cabin Democrat for publication by Manager P. F. Cleaver of the Con- way Cotton Oil & Gin Company. The rules were submitted to County Agent Williams and met with his hearty endorsement. Farmers who are planning to combat the weevil with the poison this year should clip this article and preserve it for future reference
 Rules for Poisoning.
 Don't use poison on land that is not fertilized to grow at least half bale of cotton to the acre
 Get adequate dusting machinery.
 A hand gun costing SIP to $20 can handle only 8 acres. Larger machines are much more desirable.
 A one-mule machine, selling around for the season.
 Cart machines costing $250 to $500 are capable of handling 100 acres for each machine.
 Start poisoning when the weevils have punctured from 1O to 15 per cent of the squares.
 Make three applications of poison at four day intervals.
 If later in the season the weevils become abundant enough to attack the young bolls, make one or two more applications.
 If heavy, drencking rain falls within "A hours after an application of calcium arsenate is made, put on another immediately. The washed off application does no5 count.
 Use 5 to 2 pounds of calcium ar senate per acre with each applica- ton
 Apply poison any tim" day OK night, when the air is calm, but pre- ferably when the dew in on the plants
 Use only standard calcium arsen- dIe lHdL COHlOTinS U government specifications A sample may be sent through a county or district agent to the government laboratories, Tal- lulah, La, for free analysis
 If calcium arsenate is not applied in strict accordance with the rules laid down by g Wernment boil wee vii experts, it will not pay to use it.
 Therefore, intelligent and exacting supervision must attend the use of calcium arsenate.
 Unless the infestation is heavy enough or unless the yield is great enough for calcium arsenate to make a saving of more than 100 pounds of seed cotton, it will not pay to poi son the weevil
 Keep the cotton acreage down low and do everything possible to in crease the yield per acre. It costs just as much to poison ona-quarter bale per acre cotton as bale per acre.

DOCTORS DISAGREE AS 10 SMALL POX STATE HEALTH OFFICER Dr. C. w. Garrison Also Uncertain
 After Examining Three Gases
 Here-Advises Vaccination.

Following a difference between To- cal physicians as to whether several suspected cases in Conway were small pox or chicken pox, Dr. C. w. Garrison of Little Rock, state health officer, addived here late Saturday and was asked to pass an opinion upon the cases.
 After examining three of the cases Dr. Garrison, in the presence of sev- eral members of the local medical fraternity and a representative of the Log Cabin Democrat made a statement in which he said he was somewhat uncertain himself as to the character of the disease, com mended the action taken in isolating the cases and urged the importance of universal vaccination, regardless of whether the cases here were small poX or not.
 The first two cases examined by Dr. Garrison, which had practically recovered, he said he was inclined to believe were chicken pox and the third case had some but not all symptoms of small poX and he in cined to the opinion that it was small pox. He said, however, he would not be positive as to any of the cases, but stated that in all such sus- picious or "border line" cases the safest procedure was to consider them small pox until proved other be taken if 1t were certain that they were small poX. The state health rules, he stated, require isolation of the patient and immediate vaccina- tion of all who have come in contact with the case, with the alternative of IA days isolation for those who refuse to be vaccinated
 Dr. Garrison said he could be pos tive that none of the cases were of the continent or virulent type of small pox.
 The present situation will prove a blessing to your town if it brings about thorough and universal vac cination of all your citizens, a mat ter which the state health authori- ties have been urging for years" said Dr. Garrison. Even if you have no small pox now, the chances are very great that you will have before the winter is over and there is a pos ibility that a case of the virulent type of small pox that has been pre- valing in Oklahoma, Kansas and oth- CT states to the north and west may drift into Conway, as well as other towns of this state. Vaccination is the only method the medical profes- sion knows to prevent small poX. Quarantines are unsuccessful and in efficient in preventing a spread of the epidemic. Our laws require that every teacher and pupil attending school or college must be vaccinated, and l would strongly urge that everyone else, especially everyone who comes in contact with the public be vaccinated at once, if this has not already been successfully done'
 No new cases of contagious dis ease, either small pox or chicken pox, have been reported since Saturday, pr, J. s. Westerfied, the county health officer, said today
