BUY BOIL WEEVIL
POISON MATERIAL
EARLY IN SEASON

Mr.. B. r. Coad, entomoiigist of tbs
Bureau of Entomology, United State.
Agricultural department, advises al
farmers who mean to fight the boil
weevil to make their preparations fol
poisons and busting machines early
as there is sure to be a scarcity when
late orders come in. Nh. Coad says
"a rather peculiar situation has
developed which promises disappoint-
ment to many cotton farmers who
wish to poison the weevil this year if
some steps are not taken to remedy
1t. For the past several years var
ious machine manufacturers have
been taking up the production of cot
ton busting machinery and have turn
ed out limited numbers for the trade
which developed. However, they
have always been confronted with
the fact that many farmers would de-
fer purchasing materials in some vain
hope that the weevils were not to be
abundant until so late that it was
impossible to secure deliveries in
time for best results.
During the past several months
we have canvassed the results the far
mers secured last year, and find too
frequent repetition of statement to
the effect that the machines were de-
layed in shipment and did not reach
them until few days or few weeks
later than the time they were really
needed, and consequently poisoning
became more expensive and less sue
cessful.
1t is now quite obvious that the
spring of 1922 is going to see an alb
normally heavy emergence of weevils
and while this may be somewhat off
set by summer weather conditions,
there is no excuse for delay in secur-
ing equipment if you are going to
poison the weevils this year. Furth-
ermore the manufacturers have no
means of anticipating just what the
demand is going to be and naturally
do not feel justified in building
large number of machines on a gam
bic. The consequence is that ma
chine production will probably more
or less keep pace with visible BUSH
ness and there is little prospect of
surplus of machines being prepared
and thus placed at the disposal of
those suddenly deciding to poison at
the last moment.
Our advice is DECIDE NOW whet-
her or not you are going to prepare
to poison, and if you decide to do so,
Immediately make arrangements for
your supply of busting materials.
= 'anThe price of the various machines
has already been announced for the
year. The various one-mule mach
ines are all between 500 and 1925,
while the two-mule machines practi-
caIly all range between $3.50 and
$500. These prices are fairly rea'
sonable in proportion to the present
price Of cotton. and there is little
lillihoad Of reduction. Certainly
not sufficient probability to warrant
delaying the purchase Of equipment.
~'Considering all features of the
situation we feel that we cannot too
strongly urge either the purchase OF
material now or the decision to not
attempt the poisoning this year"

IN BEHALF OF INSANE MEN
Test Suit Filled in Providence, r. L.,
May Affect Numerous
Other Cases.

Are former soldiers whose minds
were wrecked by S~hell-shock, wounds
and gas, temporarily or permanently
insane? The question is to be decided
in a suit against the government to.
compel payment of war-risk insurance,
filed in Providence, r. l., by James Is.
Littlefield, attorney for the American
Legion.
The action has been taken e behalf
of three soldiers, Adam MikilIwicZ,
Giuseppe Vitullo and James MCGEE.
1t is alleged by the Legion attorney
that the three are totally disabled as
a result of insanity. The government
insurance bureau, Mr.. Littlefield
charges. has refused to pay the in
uranc of the mel on the ground that
they may recover.
Their minds dwarfed from shell
shock, several thousand ~ex-service
men are confined in insane asylums
and private and government hospitals.
The decision sought is that the men
are permanently disabled and as such
are entitled to the full money allow
ance awarded by the government in
stead of a small temporary compensa-
ton. The result of the suit filed in
Providence will affect similar cases
about to be filed in all parts of the
country.

Needs New PoII-Tax Law.

In passing an amended. bill exempt
ing ex-service men of Alabama from
the payment of poll tax, the legisla-
tur of that state has unwittingly dis
franchised the men it sought to bene-
fit. The amendment was held uncon-
stitutional and the only ex-service men
permitted TO vote IN recent elections
were those who became disabled from
wounds or sickness during the war,
provided they did not own $500 worth
CT property. George Lewis Bales,
commander Of the Birmingham post of

amendment as a substitute for the one
declared unconstitutional. 1t will be
submitted to the legislature at an

CONSERVATION OF BIRD LIFE.

The National Grange in its late
session at Portland, Ore, went on
record for conservation of bird life,
asking all oranges TO protect birds.
The resolutions recite that birds
are a great factor in preserving and
maintaining all forms of vegetable
life to help feed the world.
They call the attention of the farm
ers to the fact that the birds do de-
stroy innumerable insects injurious
to all forms of vegetation.
The slaughter of birds by sports
men and others has resulted in the
tremendous increase of destructive
insects, says the National Grange.
They urge all subordinate oranges
and farmers organizations to do their
utmost to bring the economic value
of birds to the knowledge of the peo-
pie and call for the passage and en-
forcement of laws that will conserve
native and migratory birds.

THE BUFFER INDUSTRY.


The logging and sawmill industry
is the great buffer against unemploy-
ment In the northwest. While it has
been severely handicapped during the
reimbursement period by wartime con-
ditions over which it had little con-
troll, it has kept it's thousands of
workmen employed at good wages,
and while the total number has prob
ably been 80 per cent below normal,
still it has furnished means Of en-
ployment when other industries were
virtually closed.
A. L. Mccormick, representative of
the Weyerhauser Timber Co, at Ia
coma, says: "The logging camps of
the northwest are gradually opening
although there will be some unem-
ploynent during the coming winter.
I expect the spring to see the lumber
industry nicely through the depres-
sion"
