The American Red Cross has an
nounced that it has just spent $780,
600 to relieve some of the most ur-
gent cases of actual distress among
the people of certain parts of Mon
tana and North Dakota. Congress
took two hundred times that amount
of money from the grain growers for
the Russian relief. The Farmers
Council in this city has received let
ter from Y. G. Mansfield of Sunny
side, Washington, telling of conditions
in several of the Northwestern
States. He writes: "Many farmers
are compelled to go to the bankers
and beg for money to buy sack of
flour. Their crops were all mortgaged
and taken from them. There are a
great many who were unable last
fall to seed their summer-fallowed
ground, and there is no hope of their
being able to do so in the spring."
The most of the metropolitan news
papers do not print these stories, for
they are members of the cabal of pub
fishers who have agreed to print only
news indicating that the administra-
tion is success, and to throw on the
floor all of the news depicting the
tremendous amount of distress in the
land.

Dear Sir
Having heard about Mr.. |. O. HIPS
success with the molasses treatment
for boil weevil, l went to his place at
Cough, Georgia. l will give you what
| learned from him.
Mr.. Hill is an intelligent merchant,
farmer, owning some six thousand
acres in one body and has always de-
pended on his cotton crop for main
support. planting everything in cot
ton. When the boil wecvil struck him
four years ago he made a great many
experiments, trying to find some way
to make poison stick to plants, and
finally tried molasses. TO his surprise
he found that the wccvi was attract
ed to the molasses Just as flies and
bees. For this reason he claims to
have found this sure remedy.
He mixes in following Droportions:
! gallon Black Strap Cuban Molas-
Ses.
2 pounds Calcium Arsenatc.
quarts Warm Water.
MIX thoroughly the arScnatc and
water, then add the molasscs. This
mixture to be carried i'm q bucket and
with mop on short stick applied over
top OF cotton. Commence using pois-
on as soon as the first forms are half
grown and continue every ten days
until the last of July. Last year he
applied it five times, which put him to
July 10th. At that time he had so
effectively wiped them out that he had
no further need for more.
Thirty-three gallons molasses and
sixty pounds poison is enough for
ten acres five times, costing less than
$500 per acre for the season. / saw
thirty acre patch that he had used
the poison on and at that time, last of
August, he had already picked twenty

WEEKLY news LETTER
FROM WASHINGTON
(By Special Correspondent)

Washington, D. c., Feb. 13.-One of
the ablest of the younger and newer
members of the House is w. Turner
Logan of South Carolina, represent
ing the Charleston District. Mr.. Lo-
gan is one of those conscientious
members always found in their seats
when the House is in session. He is
serving on four Of the House Com
mittees, which is rather an unusual
number, yet he has found time recent
ly to start through the House piece
of Legislation which is Of considerable
Importance, but which comes into
Congress by way of still another COM
mittee, that OH Interstate and For
'eign Commerce. This is in process of
development at this time.
The President is having Congress
create thirteen more United States
District dgcships-another load for
the backs of the overburdened taxpay-
crs. Incidentally it gives him an op-
portunity to take thirteen members
of the Agricultural Bloc from the
Senate and place them where he put
Kenyon. Away back there when the
world was young, the Emperor Tam
;erlane found that a petty sultan nam
ed BaJazet was in his way at times,
SO he threw the sultan into cage and
hauled him around the country for
exhibition purposes. The President
will soon have thirteen cages ready
for the Senators who have annoyed
him by standing up for the interests
of the farmers. Curiously enough,
there are just thirteen of these
Senators still remaining in the Agri-
cultural Bloc who can be depended
upon to stand by the people on cost
occasions-except when there is a
soft lifetime job to be had.
Abe Martin says that his friend
Ike Lark has bought new pair of
shoes with some money he had left
over from the Wilson administration.
Perhaps few of the farmers in the
country realize that the twenty mil
lion dollars which the Republican
Congress so generously voted for the
aid of comparatively small section
of Russia came out of the pockets of
the wheat growers, many Of whom are
in real need Of aid themselves. In
other words, it was appropriated from
the funds of the United States Grain
Corporation and not from the United
States Treasury, and the funds of the
Grain Corporation represent profits
made off wheat growers. These pro-
fits amount to more than thirty mil
lion dollars. Another phase of the
matter is the fact that Congress set
a precedent in this case, for charity
of this kind in the past has been by
private subscription. In 1916 the
country was so moved by the distress
of ireland, where the potato crop had
failed under the burden of furnish
ing the principal support for the
eli It millions of people in the island
at that time, that millions were rails
ed by private subscription, but even
then the Congress was not asked to
make an appropriation. In the case
of Russia there was plenty of food in
the country, but Communism does not
run true to it's name, and the parts of
Russia where food was abundant
would not furnish it to the famine re-
gion without a price, and the price
could not be raised by the sufferers.

Dear SIR
Knowing that my friend, Mr.. M. S.
Haynesworth of Florence, a large and
successful farmer, had made a trip
down in Georgia to look into methods
Of fighting the boil weevil, | wrote to
hinakf For the information obtained by
him in this trip, for my own guidance
this year.
While l do not expect to allow my
tenants to plan more than six acres
of cotton to the plow, and I am urg-
ing all of the customers of our bank
to diversity by all means, l think the
information contained in Mr.. Haynes
worth's letter is of so much impor-
tance to our farmers that I thought
it would be of great benefit to our
people for you to publish these let
ters in this weeks issue of your
