Early Versus Late Planting Ol
Cotton \

Clemson College 1--WE coa-
tinue to advise planting cotton
without delay in the spring,
using early varieties. n d
pushing the crop TO early matur-
ity." snys Prof. A. F. Conradi,
Entomologist, in answering "a
number of farmers who, having
observed that in some instances
the weevil damage was worse in
early planted cotton this year
than on late planted cotton, have
asked us in regard to the advls-
ability of planting late hereafter
rather than early.
The fact that inIestation in
some instances was heavier on
an early-planled field may be ac-
counted for in two ways, as fol-
lows, Prof. Conradi continues:
1. The weeyil rarely occurs
uniformly over a given section,
tarm or field. The farmer will
invariably find that some spots
are more heavily infested than
others, and this accounts for ear
ly cotton in some cases having
been more heavily infested than
l6te cotton.
2. 1u some sections, especial
ly in the Piedmont section, cot
ton planting was greatly delayed
on many fields, because of ad-
verse weather conditions, but
due to the mild winter and the
very early spring. the weevil be-
ga1 to come out of winter quarters
very early. The result was that
q large number of the over-wIn-
tered weevils died before cotton
began to square. A condition
just like this may not occur again
for many years and, even if it
did. there is no evidence that IT
would be worth anything.
Comparatively few of the wee
wills that enter winter-auarters in
the fall succeed in passing the
winter and puncture the squares
the next spring. Therefore cot
ton production amounts TO a race
between the cotton crop aud the
time when weevils become
abundant; or, in other words, it
amounts TO an effort to get bolls
formed and hardened before the
weevils become very abundant.
Any operation that delays plant
ing and maturing is dangerous,
because the squares and young
bolls will be lost later in the sea-
son by The increasing number of
Weevils
In short. there is no evidence
at hand that anything is gained
by late planting, but abundant
evidence is at hand that there
may be much 10 lose. We there
fore advise planting without de
lay when conditions haye be-
come favorable, and we advise
doing everything possible and
practicable TO keep the plants
fruiting and to hasten maturity.

Get That Purebred Dairy Bull
Now

Now
Clemson CoJlege-The two
reasons for so many Improbable
cows in South Carolina are lack
of proper care and lack of good
breeding.
In the first place, On the aver
age farm cows are not cared for
properly. They are not fed the
proper amount Of feeds and the
rations are not balanced. Besides
the cows are rot MIXED, fed and
watered al regular times; and. al
though we have rather mild
winters, too little attention has
been given the proper houselng
OF the milk cows, which are crea
lures Of habit and do their best
only when given regular atten-
tion. under conditions which
make for their comfort.
In the second place, there are
beng kept too many cows which
could not be made profitable
even if given the best opporiun-
Ity BY way of feed, care and treat
meni. These cows are lacking
IN breeding, individuality or abll-
1ty. Since very few farmers are
testing their cows to learn which
are the profit. makers and which
are the bCarders, the only way

IMAGES REVERSED ON RETINA
Experiments Have Shown That Habit
and Experience Counterfeit Effect
. Of the Inversion.

The lenses of, the eye produce on
the retina an inverted image of OBJ
jects looked at, and the question Is
often asked, ''Why do things appear
right-side up when their images are
swrong-side upy' asssrrz II r ~ !
{ It occurred to one investigator to
try the effect Of preventing the snver.
sion of images on the retina. This
was accomplished by means of an op-
teal instrument that excluded from
: the eyes all light except that which
passed through the instrument Itself:
The instrument was adjusted tosthe
eyes at 8 o'clock one afternoon and
was not removed Except at night,
when the eyes were bandagedD until
noon the next day. At first, to the
person whose eyes were thus treated,
everything seemed topsy-turvy and IL
lusory, and the mind instinctively
tried to imagine objects to be in the
position in which they ordinarily ap-
pear. After q time, however, the feel
ing of the unreality of what was seen
passed away, and the person expert
mented on even began to imagine
everything that lay outside his field
Of vision to be arranged in the same
way as what he saw. This goes to
show that habit and experience coun-
teract the effect Of the inversion Of
images in the eyes.-Wash1ngton Star.

During the filming of the snow
scenes outside the little mothers cot

little dog forgot himself for a NOM It
and instead Of acting his part like q
well behaved little dog should in a

sludicrous manner as to cause the en-
tire company Of actors to, burst out
laughing, !. including Cullen Lands,
who was in one of lis best dramatic
moments. TIE result, just for the
fun Of the situation, was shot by the:
camera man and projected ON the
screen the following day to the as
sembled company. 1t was unanimous
~ voted that the little dog did bet

WHALING Always Periloua.

Whaling, in spite of modem i'm"
provements, Is a perlous profe:s'ion--
a life of hardship after harushilb
coupled with nonotony and uncaang'
ing scenery. Nothing but a s.ornl'
swept, iceberg-strew sea and a port
in barren ice-capped island. OF
course, to the Yankee whalers, ct 3
century ago the improvements q. to-
day would make the work seem lux"
uriant and soft. No throwing Of the
harpoon by hand from a fratl man
propelled craft at the mercy of the
injured whale-no cold damp living
quarters, but a warm steam.heated
forecastle defylng the rlgors Of an
Antarctic climate.
From April to November the small
er boats and crews attached to the
factories winter in MOntey:deo.
Around November they refit for serv'
ice and report for duty when the ships
come from Norway. Most of tho
whalers are Norwegian, though the
men on the smaller boats being re-
cruited in the South American ports
contain sailors from every country on
earth.

pense and romance from beginning

Grand theatre tomorrow, also Mon

funniest characters that you ever
saw. Not even excepting regular
comedy photoplays.
II contains all the elements of
wholesome dramatic appeal-appeal
for every class of patron from the
smalles tchild to the oldest grand
father and all the folk who are in
between. Because it is hundred
per cent pure entertainment, whole

''DOWN HOME" AT ELKO
THEATRE SUNDAY. MONDAY

In these days of continual rush

charm and beauty Of real American
country life has a strong appeal.
And "Down Home" the new Irwin
V, Willat production coming to the
Elko theatre Sunday and Monday, is
as refreshing as the wholesome at
mosphere which surrounds it.
Leatrice Joy as Nancy, the de-
voted daughter, brings to the role
all her youth and charm, together
with a sympathy for the part that
is both unusual and gdratifying
William Robert Daily, the veteran
stage actor, has created never-to
be- forgotten character as the village
drunkard who struggles to lift the
curse which is upon him. Edward
Hearn as the simple, clean-minded
youth in love with Nancy, is con-
vincing and lovable in the part, and
the rest of the all-star cast are ad-
mirable in the parts assigned to
them.
