"Lottie Lloyd was associated with

son School building, on North Della
ware street. One of the many COM
pllments paid Miss Lloyd for many
years In the 1870 to 1880 period of
her teaching, vas that on account of
the high standing of our Indianapo
lis schools at that time, the princi-
pals of schools in Chicago, Cleveland,
Detroit, Buffalo, Pittsburg, Philadel-
phia, Baltimore, New York and even
Boston sent some of their primary
teachers to visit Lottie Lloyds
school room, catch her methods of
teaching, her wonderful control of
her pupils, and the ambition to learn
which she appeared able to incite in
their minds. The affection manifest
ed by her pupils for their teacher
was very noted. At the time Lottie
Lloyd was persuaded also to take a
Bible class on Sunday at one of our
Presbyterian churches and many of
our principal business men of today
often speak of her influence for good
in their life work.
"Lottie Lloyd was married to Car
los H. Preston, a merchant in Rich
mond, Ind, about 1885 and soon after
removed to Crescent City, Fla.
"Mrs. Wilmer Christian went to
Crescent City, Fla, last October on
receiving notice of her Aunt Lotties
sickness. After two months fighting
severe illness, she gained strength
enough to bring her to her sister
Mrs. NJ. v McGilliard, on North
Delaware street. Later she was
found to be suffering from a heart
trouble which could not be overcome
and it was deemed advisable that she
be returned to her Florida home
where she died last week.

PLAN. FOR
WEEVIL
CONTROL

Recommendations for boil
,weevil control adopted unani-
mosly at the conference of 1agri-
cultural scientists and scientific
farmers. held in Columbia No
vember 18 on call Of Governor
Wilson G. Harvey, are as. fol-
lows:
Destroy the weevil,s winter
quarters, by piowing under cot
ton and corn stalks and by clean
ing terraces, ditch banks and
other trash on the farm.
Prepare land early and thor.
oughly. Plant best seed of ap-
proved. varieties. Among the
best varieties are. Lightning Ex-
press, Cleveland Big Boil, Delta
Type and Con Wilt-infested land
Dixie Triumph.
Use fertilizer sufficient. such as
would make a bale Of cotton per
acre in an average season with
ont the presence Of the weevil.
This Will vary on individual
farms Make side applications
of soda early. before the first
blooms appear.
Plant as soon as ground is
warm. All cotton in a given
community should be planted at
about the same time (fron the
first TO the middle of April).
Practice frequent shallow
cultivation to keep UP fruiting.
Practice thick spacing.
Practice early square picking
if cheap labor is available. This
must be done very thoroughly
every five days if possible in or
der to be effective.
Definite recommendations on
poisoning are deferred for fu-
ture consideration by this con-
ference until after the propos>
ed conference at Washington
has been held to determine upon
the general policy to be recon-
mended for 1923.
Develop a fertile soil as the
best asset to farming under boil
weevil conditions.

The Supreme Iconoclast.

-.
Would that the south could real
ize that she is the most favored sec
ton Of this country. In the old days
the south had only one idol-cot-
ton. Our agricultural system was
narrow short-sighted and uneco-
nomic. It took no cognizance Of
possibilities Every farm, in those
days. was patterned after every 9TH
er farm. We can. however, see in
the boil weevil today the supreme
iiconoclast-the breaker of idols.
The weevil has broadened our agri-
cultural horizon. He has taught
US that brains on the farm are as
necessary as. in other professions.
He has taught us the possibilities
of the individual farm, of-the spec
Iialized. farm or the farm that car.
ries the predictions of the own
er. The weevil has taught US :!le
possibilities We never before saw,
for example, peanut, sweet potato,
cane syrup, pecan, Pineapple pea.,
peach, apple. watermelon, hog and
poultry, citrus fruit, trucking, ie-
gune values. land upbuilding AMI
the necessity for two crops in the
year. Every self-supporting inde-
pendent farm today in the lar1 Is
a reaction OF the weevil.
But yesterday is gone. Agric:ll-
ture. as l see it and believe it, IS
today out of the doldrums. 1t only
remains for the landowner and
the share-cropper and renter to
realize it and to relate himself to it.
