Start Fighting Boil Weevil for 1923

Start Fighting Boil Weevil for 1928
Cotton Crop.
Will you make any cotton next
year?
Whether or not you are a cotton
grower, you are interested in whether
your county produces any cotton.
There is one big thing that you can
do now to help save your county. II
you are farmer, cut your stalks at
once, and turn them under and try
to get all your neighbors to do the
same. Organize your community now
for the purpose of destroying every
stalk.
If you are a banker or business
man this fight means just as much
or more to you, so 60 your limit to
get all stalks destroyed before frost.
If the stalks are destroyed now there
will be no place for the weevils to
live until alternating season, and
they will die. Besides destroying
their food you cover up thousands OF
young weevils that haven't Matched,
and it is these late Matched weevils
that come out late in the spring after
the squares are formed, so you can
readily see the necessity Of destroy
ing their breeding places as early as
possible in the fall.
Try to get green growing winter
cover crop on all cotton land. Plant
rye and vetch or oats and vetch. 1t
will improve your land by adding
Humus, and the vetch will take val
liable nitrogen from the air and store
it I'D in the soil for the next crop.
Boil weevils cannot live over winter
in green cover crops. They must
have dry winter hotels to hibernate In.
Don't burn your cotton stalks, corn
stalks or grass off the field 1t makes
your land poor. Turn all stalks.
grass, etc. under-It makes your land
richer. Plant cover crops for boil
weevils hotel, and you will have fewer
weevils next year.
Be a good citizen and do your part
to establish prosperity. Don't leave
it all for the other fellow to do.
Destroy your stalks, then ask your
neighbors to do likewise.
Remember every weevil you destroy
now and every alternating place you
destroy now means less weevls to
live over winter.
Kill the weevil before he kills you" J"

Unthrifty Pigs Improbable.

An unthrifty pig is a sort of a
standing invitation to any and all
kinds of disease. Clean quarters and
we'll kept stock is a very good in
surance against disease. Keep a
good tonic powder before the pigs
at all times. The following is good
one: Charcoal one bushel, wood ashes
one bushel, salt ten pounds and cop
peras two and one-half pounds. Mix
the charcoal, salt and wood ashes,
dissolve the copperas in a small
amount of hot water, and sprinkle
over the mixture of ashes, charcoal
and salt, and stir until all is well
mixed. Keep little of this in boxes
in dry place at all times.

The Nations Seed Bed.

A contented rural population is not
only the measure Of our nations
strength, an. assurance of its peace
when there should be peace, and a
resource of courage when peace would
be cowardice, but it is the nursery
Of the great leaders who have made
this country what it is.
Washington was born and lived in
the country.
Jefferson was a farmer.
Henry Clay rode his horse to the
mill through the slashes.
Webster dreamed amid the solitude
of Marshfield.
Lincoln was rail splitter.
Ben Hill walked between the han
dies of the plow.
Brown peddled barefoot the product
Of his patch.
Stephens found Immortality under
the trees of his country home.
Toombs and Cobb and Calhoun
were country gentlemen, and, afar
from cities maddening strife, estab-
lished that greatness that is the heri-
tage of their people.
The cities produce very few lead
ers. Almost every great man in our
history formed his character in the
leisure and deliberations of our vii
lage or country life, and drew his
strength from the drugs of the earth
even as a child draws his from moth
er's breasts.-Henry w. Grady.
