Chester, October 1S: Capt. w.
Carlisle White, young banker and
progressive farmer of Chester, Is un-
questionably one of the most progress
sive farmers in the Piedmont section
Of South Carolina. He has waged q
successful strenuous battle this year
on raising cotton under boil weevil
conditions, by using calcium arsenate
POISON and other things. He will make
from 10 to 10 bales of cotton to the
plow and over 400 bales on his farm
Captain White is World war veteran
and has been farming only two years
BY hard work and ingenious resource
fulness he has practically triumphed
over the boil weevil. His case is an
complshed in the Piedmont Of South
Carolina by a young man working
along scientific and progressive modern
farming lines, adapting all Of the new
methods and only holding fast to that
which is best in the old. His crop OF
cotton is the subject of much optimis-
tic talk in this section of the common
wealth and is proving great inspira-
ton to. other farmers and is a baro-
meter indicating that splendid crops OF
cotton can still be raised in the Pied
mont Of South Carolina despite the
heavy inroads made on the crops by
the boil weevil.
