Farming Under Boil Weevil
Conditions.

The Mexican Boil Weevil has
invaded our County and has Astab-
lished n home for himself on nearly
every farm, where, II not destroyed,
he will pass the winter safely, and
will be ready early next spring to
multiply and destroy all the young
cotton squares as fast rs they are
grown. II we maintain our credit
and present prosperity, conditions
demand that we change our present
farming methods at once.
A careful study of tho habits Of
the Boil Weevil will show that he
moves once a year, and that Is I'm

our folds early this fall by chop

stalks and burning Off all terraces,
ditch banks and other places where
the Weevil has hibernatel for tho
winter, we can kill tho Weevils out

COAL STRIKE SETTLED

The settlement of the coal. strike is
announced in the daily press and the
terms show that not one change has
been made by the struggle. Wages
remain the same. The check-off sys-
tenn stays. Agreement for confer
ence to adopt new wage scale each
year is set for January third for the
coming year. True, such an agree
ment existed this year but was brok-
en- by the operators. 1t may be broken
next year, but if so the public will
not be quite so ignorant of their
crookedness. n
But one thing has been accom-
plished. and that is great boost in
coal prices. This strike was forced
for that very purpose and to its full
fillment the administration lent its
jealous aid. The four -fusher Hoover
was the steerer for the game. The
public will pay for the strike aid
gorge the Golfers of the coal barons
with unearned profits.

tractive SPOT for tourists, each year
seeing more people visit this beauti-
full valley. Though the roads are in

est f1ivver to super-sixes of various
brands, they all get there.
