PROGRESS OF THE WEEVIL.
Farmers Can Hold Damage to Mini
mum by Hard Work.

Clemson College, July 24.-"The first
generation of weevils has been active
in the central and southern parts OF
the state for the last ten days or two
weeks and it is rapidly appearing in
the Piedmont section. Infestation in
the southern section Of the state and
the Pee Dee section has been compar-
ativly high in the last ten days, while
the farmers in the central and north
ern parts of the state will observe
rapid increase in square infestation
during the next week or ten days. The
appearance of weeyils at this time and
the increase in the number OF pune
tured squares is due to natural deVei-
opments, and this was to be expected
The above statement was made at
the weekly boil weevil conference held
here today, which was attended by
Directors w. w. Long and II. w. Barre,
President w. NJ. Riggs and A. f. Con-
radi, and his field entomologists, and
other specialists, and at which there
were reports made from the county
agents and specialists as to weevil
conditions in the various counties. Be-
low are the details of the facts and
suggestions brought out at the confer
ence.
Weather conditions in most sections
of the state are favorable to weevil
development, and the rains are unfav
orable to weevil control. Over prac-
tically the entire state cotton is still
continuing to fruit, but in those Sec
tions where infestation runs from 40
to 60 per cent, and with showery
weather. fruiting may not be expected
to continue.
Attention is particularly directed to
the fact that we have arrived at the
critical period in the production of cot
ton in 1922 when the utmost attention
is necessary to keep the plant fruiting
and to reduce the weevil infcstation
as much as possible. Farmers who are
poisoning are urged to follow the di-
rectionS laid down for this work with
great care, and to make the different
poison applications at the intervals
recommended just as nearly as pOssi
bic, weather permitting.
Attention is directed to the fact that
because of the showery and moist
weather conditions in many sections Of
the state, the characteristic naring
open and yellowing of the puncturcd
squares is not so noticeable as it is i'm
dry weather, and this fact is decciving
many farmers as to the abundance of
the weevil, for under such weather
main green and keep their normal
shape for q much longer period than
under dry weather conditions.

Silly Superstition.-What has been
told as an amusing story regarding
the superstition of negroes in Ander-
son county and their reluctance or re-
fusal to combat the boil weevil by
means of burning the squares, has
developed into what may be termed a
menace to the county cotton crop, ac-
cording to prominent Anderson farm
ers, who are entertaining great con-
Germ over the matter.
With the new crop of boil wccviis,
the rapdity with which the weevils
multiply is being impressed upon the
farmers and they are realizing the re-
suit that will be brought about If
drastic methods of combating the wee
vii are not employed speedily.
A number Of farmers coming to An
derson during the past few days have
expressed great concern over the sit
uation as the result Of negroes re-
fusing to burn the squares and Wee
wills. Unless the squares are burned
or otherwise destroyed, there seems
little need of gathering them.-Ander-
son Daily Mail.

The Soldier and the Bonus.

The biggest thing in America on the
18th day of November 1918 was the
American soldier.
The American soldier was not only
the biggest thing in America; but he
was the biggest thing in the world.
That is what America thought, it
is what England thought, what France
thought and what Germany thought.
1t was true.
The American congress would have
been willing To give the American
soldier anything he might choose to
ask for, even to half the wealth of the
country.
And American international finan-

SOUTH CAROLINA NEWS.

- The third extra meeting of the
state campaign was held at Mullins
last Tuesday night, the candidates
having been invited there from Ma
rion. All of the candidates were pres
cnt except former Governor Blease and
Secretary of State Dove. Mr.. Blease
declined the invitation on the ground
that he did not care to speak from the
same platform with John T. Duncan;
that if Duncan was invited, he would
not come.
On the face of the enrolment
books, which closed Tuesday at noon,
1O,457 men and women in the city Of
Charleston qualified for the approach
ing primary elections. 1t is believed
that the county clubs will show about
1.500 men and women on their rolls,
which are to be delivered at once.
County Chairman Daniel l.. Sinkler
was in the office of the county auditor
when the city club books were being
delivered. He has already arranged
for the typewriting of all the names in
order that, pursuant TO law, they may
be published for inspection by the pub
lie.
- There was an out of the ordinary
diversion in the state campaign at
statement of Senator .Laney to the ef-
feet that machine politicians arc seek
ing to control the election of the gov
ernor of South Carolina. He stated
that he had heard men talking of the
desirability of centering on a man to
beat Blease, and from what he said it
appeared that Mcleod was the man the
L.achine was centering on for tic pur-
pose. He disclaimed allegiance or re-
sponsbility to any ring, faction or
machine; but said that if elected he
would be governor OF all the people.
Mr.. Mcleod took note of what Mr..
Laney had said, and denied that he
was the candidate of machine. He
said that tie only ring around Linn
was n majority Of the men and women
of the state, and that was the ring
into which the other candidates were
trying to break.

Ex- Senator James X. vardeman O,

EX- Senator James X. Vardeman of
Mississippi, is going back to the Unit
ed States senate as a successor to John
Sharpe Williams. That Is the way IT
has been looking for some time past
and now since James f. Mccall, Var
demans' opponent, has enlisted the
sympathy of former President Wilson,
it is looking that way more strongly
Some time ago Vardeman charged
that McCall's father had voted for q
negro in the Mississippi legislature
against the late Senator l.. Q. G.. La
mar. Mccall denied the truth of the
charge and Vardeman proved ii. Then
Mccall appealed TO Mr.. Wilson and Mr..
Wilson has written, 81 think Vardeman
is thoroughly false and untrustworthy,
and that it would be n great detriment
TO Mississippi and the nation should
he be returned TO the senate" Varde-
man has strong following in Missis-
Sippi. Mr.. Wilson, when president,
and in the zenith of his power, was
able to defeat the Mississippi man for
reelection. But now Vardcman is
making capital Of the presidents letter
to Mccall, and the outlook is that he
is going to win.

York county farmers are fighting the
boil weevil with intelligent persist
ence that is worthy of the stake. There
are few slackers in each nelghbor-
hood, but they are the exception rather
than the rule.
"Yes," said Congressman Stevenson
the other day, 81 have been attending
some Of the state campaign meetings,
and / have been struck with the i'm
proved character of them. They are
more orderly, more instructive and
more helpful than they used to be and
altogether worth while"
II is some faithful and energetic
work that the candidates for the vari-
Gus county offices are putting in now.
The quiet of a few weeks ago is entire-
IL changed and the campaign has de-
veloped into house to house canvass.
Comparatively speaking, it is n long
time since candidates have put in their
work more thoroughly.
The state highway commission is re-
ceiving complaints against the opera
ton Of automobiles under dealers Ii
cense tags. The commission construes
the law to mean that dealers license
tags can be used only for demonstra-
ton or sale purposes. Private individ-
uals, however, are using these tags in
stead of the regular tax paid tags, and
sheriffs and other executive officers
are being asked to keep closer tab on
the matter.

That a protective tariff was neces-
sary to enable American industries to
get on their feet in competition with
long established foreign industries,
there is no question. Except for the
protective tariff policy Of the United
States America would still be buying
her steel, cotton goods, woolen goods
and hundred other things from for
eign markets, and economically we
would be in Il class with the Hottcn-
tots and South Sea islanders. But now
that our former infant industries have
become giants, we do not need that
same protection, or anything like it.
We can beat the world IN the manu-
facture of iron, steel, cotton goods, and
hundreds of other commodities. How
ever, the protective principle still has
its problems and the greatest problem
is to prevent imposition upon Ameri-
cans by benefciaries of American pro-
lection.

1t is a pretty general belief that un-
less Senator Reed is renominated by
the Democrats of Missouri, the Repub-
licans will elect the next senator from
that state. Reed has q strong follow
ing throughout the state who believe
he was right in his controversy with
President Wilson, and it is reasonably
certain that if the divided Democratic
party nominates somebody else in his
place, his friends will support the Re-
publican candidate. The Democrats of
the senate regard Reed us one of the
best men on their side, especially
while they are in the minority, and are
very much concerned over the situa-
ton.
