HERRIOT RETURNS
BEARING AUTHORITY

LONDON, August 11.-Bearing
the authority of his cabinet to make
what is generally declared the
most important decision of France
since the treaty of Versatile, Pre-
mier Edouard Herriot hos returned
to the reparations conference at
London.
Within the past "a hours, Herriot
has so reinforced his power that he
stands as a more important and dom
inant figure than it was believed he
would ever be when his forces ear
ried the republic in the elections a
few short months ago.
Herriot won his present position
by the promise to evacuate the
Ruhr, and to bring economic peace
to Europe by reversing the policies
of Premier Poincare. Now he mas
succeeded, according to his friends,
who are confident that the London
conference has brought an early
happy solution based on the Dawes
plan.

GEORGIA AND SUMTER
CROPS BEST HE SAW
Geo. 0. Marshall Says Carolina
Cotton Growers Have Poor
Prospect for Good Yield

Georgia and Sumter county
have the best cotton crop prospects
/ saw in my automobile trip to
North Carolina and back" This was
the message brought here today by
George 0. Marshall, who hae just
returned from brief vacation
spent at his former home, Acme,
N. c.
"All the way from. Augusta to
Columbia, where the Carolinas us
ually produce their best cotton, the
crops this season are the poorest
I've seen in number Of years. 7
saw nothing anywhere between
Americas and Columbia that will
compare fayorably with sumter's
cotton crop prospects this year.
Sumter county farmers are to be
congratulated upon thori prospect
for gathering good yield this fall,
and if other sections of the cotton
belt grow no more cotton than the
indicated yield in the Carolinas,
every reason exists why good prices
should prevail"

TENT CATERPIIL
DAMAGING PECANS
Destructive Insects Increasing
Among Trees in This Section
AT Alarming Rate

Tent caterpillars are damaging
trees throughout Sumter county and
these destructive insects are incrtas
ing 1t an alarming rate.
This is the information given The
TimesRecorder today by John M.
France, principal Of the Third Dis
trict Agricultural and Mechanical
COLLEGE here. Prof France recently
returned from trip through several
counties south and east Of Sumter
vber. She found these caterpillars
infestine the trees in increasing
mum pers. These insects live usual
~ in pecan and persimolion trees
exclusively, and are easily discerned'
1t is the practice of these insects
10 build a web resembling tent III
the branches Of the trees, and from
this they have derived their name,
"Tent Caterpillar" They increase
RAPIDLY and one female has been
known to lay as many as miliicA
eggs in a single season. At this
time Of year the caterpillar tents
may be seen in infested trees with
the female busy therein deposiung
her eggs. Their control is easy if
| undertaken carly, and consists in
burning the webb out with torch.
The best method Of making a torch
for this purpose is to tie news
! paper on the end of a fishing pole,
| light this and touch the web, hold
ing there until the web has been en-
tirely destroyed.
THIS process, which damages the
tree in small way, does nothing
IKE the damage that would be incur
red through permitting the caterpil-
lars TO remain there and increase rs
they would. This would mean the
entire destruction of the tree within
a short time, and pecan growers
should give their orchards personal
attention at this time in order to seq
that the caterpillar is kept well I'M
der control.
