GLEN COVE, N. Y, August Ia.
The big moment in the life of Alec
Laskowsky is at hand.
Alec is the gardener on the es-
tate of John w. Davis, Democratic
presidential nominees in this pref
ty Long Island suburb. He trims
the shrubbery and mows the lawn
he sprinkles the vast stretches of
green and keeps the garden the way
it should be kept.
And now John w. Davis may
move into the White House down
on. Pennsylvania avenue, Washing
ton, D. c., U. S. A. And the White
House down on Pennsylvania ave-
nue. has a big lawn to take care
Of And Alec has heard of that
lawn. And he is anxious to tackle
the job of keeping it in trim.
Alec is a Fole. For five years
he has worked as gardener for Da-
Wis.
he fine man" smiles Alec.
"Comes out sometimes and talks
about the lawn. He very big man.
No stuck up at ALL"
And Alec" his interviewer said,
chow about the White House lawn?
Wouldn't you like to keep it in
trim, eh2"
Il like it very much"
Though Alec doesn't know it, the
White House lawn isn't a bit more
difficult to keep than the Davis es-
tate lawn. Both are vast affairs.
Each stretches away seemingly for
ever and is well dotted with shady
trees and abundant shrubbery.
Each has a beautiful garden with
riot of color.
The Davis estate here is one of
the most spacious in community
that has nothing but wonderful
places, as they are known in
these parts. The estates are en-
closed by walls and the approach
to the houses is along a private
driveway half mile long.
The Davis house itself is typical
of the country 1t is three stories,
of frame stucco. There is nothing
pretentious about it, except its set
ting. It's the kind of a place one
knows would be comfortable.

DESTROY STALKS
EARLY. is ADVICE
National Chamber of Commerce
Wants Member Organizations
to Wage Campaign

+ 4 WASHINGTON, Aug. 14.-As a
part of its 1924 cotton production
campaign, the Agricultural Bureau.
of the Chamber of Commerce Of the
United States has recommended TO
it's member organizations in the
Z cotton belt that they USE their IN
fluence in bringing About the fall
) destruction of cotton stalks as
cheap and efficient measure of con
'a trolling the cotton boil weevill
In a communication to secretaries
of Southern commercial organiza-
lions the National Chambers Agri-
cultural Bureau calls attention to
the striking results achieved by
this method of weevil control. BY
the destruction of stalks and gen
eral cleanup of fields and ditcl
banks to reduce the cover the weevil
might find as protection during the
winter months Bexar county, TEXAS
~ increased its cotton production "a
per cent above the average for the
preceding three years record
which was 80 per cent better than
the average of the four adjacent
counties.
I'm as much as stalks must be re-
moved in the spring before cotton
is planted on the same land" says
the Agricultural Bureau in its COM
mumcation," it would be a double
= benefit to destroy these stalks in
the fall, no matter if the weevil IS
present in relatively weak force. 1t
will come much easier to carry on
an aggressive stalk destruction cam
paign in the near future, when the
weevils have become abundant, if
that practice is popularizcd now.
Fall destruction of stalks when.
ever and wherever possible should
d BIZ practiced immediately after the
picking of cotton. Let stalk destruc
ton follow in the wake of picking
mot waiting until after the harvest
IL over.
"In many sections cotton picking
is carried on well beyond the frost
period for the purpose of salvaging
one Hundred per cent of the matur.
ed fibre. Such a practice precludes
the possibility of stalk destruction
in the fall. In the opinion of many
4. who have studied this matter It
be better to let much of this
sAtbolly and weather-stained cotton 90
and destroy stalks from two to three
/ weeks in advance of the first frost.
\ Results which would accrue the fol
1 lowing spring in all probability
would more than compensate for the
X small amount of late cotton which
sssisad@been sacrificed. Fall destruc-
ton of green cotton stalks is a most
profitable companion measure to
poisoning during the next growing
season."
