Two Certain acts
About Control Of
The Boil Wetvil
By V. L. COLLIER.
II. Marketing Agent, A.B.&N R,

!
Speaking from long experience in
boil weevil work with the U. S. De-
partrnent of Agriculture and the rail 4
reads, will say that there are two out i
standing facts associated with boil !
weevil control that are certain While 4
the Government has spent millions Of {
dollars and employed the best men r
obtainable over a term of 20 years they $
never have succeeded in finding rem t
edy that was absolutely project, but a
during this time they have found that c
boil weevi1 damage occurs according to {
the amount of rainfall, that is if we t
have as much as 20 inches of rainfall
in the cotton months of June, July {
and August. we are almost cerhin to
lose the crop, at least IS per Gent Of
it. II the seasons are dry, say 6tout
IS inches of rain fall during the Above
named months. 50 per cent of a crop
may be expected. Whenever we have
as low as 10 to IL inches rain fall dur
ing this period boil weevil damage
amounts to very little.
Looking at this matter in a practi
cal manner from the farmers view
point, will say that if we knew III
January what weather we would have
in June we could plan our crops IN
safety, but since all of this is hidden
from us, tine only thing possible to do
and still be safe is to plant reason
able acreage and give it the necess
ary care to insure its success.
After many thousands of dollars
spent in experimenting by the Gov
eminent, Calcium Arsenate was the
only poison that was ever concocted
that the boil weevil could be induced
to eat or drink. Careful experiments
show that when Calcium Arsenate Isl
properly applied that it will keep the
weevil destroyed sufficiently to insure
a fair yield. This poison is relatively
cheap and easily applied and should
by all means be employed u every
one who plants cotton.
The Georgia State Board pot tEnto-
mology comes forth with statement
that never in the history of their ex-
perience with Calcium Arsenate has II
ever failed to insure fair yield when
properly used. With this in view ! see
no reason why every farmer should

has been for many years and still is
one OF the fundamental principles in
the treatment of appendicitis or any
other lesion likely TO develop into per-
itonitis. This principle is violated,
often with disastrous results, when
the victim of acute appendicitis is piled
with physics at the onset of the at
tack. Any fool can swallow or ad-
minister a physic; it takes more intelli-
gence and better judgment to know
when to resist that impulse.
The chief factor in the cure of CON
sumption is not fresh air, nor sun
shine, nor good food, nor climate nor
the proper medicine, but the attend
ance, guidance, advice and supervision
from diagnosis to recovery OF a good
doctor. And the sovereign remedy
which q good doctor applies in such a
case is rest. l repeat, the layman, be
he ever so we'll read, cannot begin to
grasp the Importance or the technical
difficulties of this remedy.

Chicken in Patty Cases.

Cut some cooked chicken into small
cubes and season lightly with salt,
paprika and celery salt. For a cupful
and a third of chicken melt two table
spoonfuls of butter. and cook in it two
tablespoonfuls of flour and one-fourth
teaspoonful each of salt and paprika
When frothy stir in half a cupful each
of cream and chicken broth. Stir until
boiling, then add the chicken and let
stand over hot water until ready TO
serve. Have about three cupfuls of
mashed potato, seasoned with cream
or milk and butter, salt and a little
pepper. The potato should not be too
moist. but just moist enough to flow
through tube without breaking. On
4 buttered baking sheet spread thin
rounds of potato, then pipe more po-
tato onto these to form cases. Sim
ply build with stars of potato, as if
burrs for a basket. Brush over the
cases with beaten yolk of egg and set

Nutrition Nuggets.

II the physician preSCribeS bland
or soothing diet, give foods that are
smooth and non-irritating. Milk alone
or in SruelS, pureeS of vegetables,
such as potatoes, peas and all vege-
tables that may be mashed and
strained; cuStards. cornStarch and rice
gruels and buttermik are among this
group.
Foods suitable for "a diet in acidosis
are potatoes, lettuce, cucumbers, to-
matoes, chard, beet tops and creamed
or buttered cabbage. Potatoes may
be served in a number of ways-in
the form of soup, baked. mashed,
rice, etc. This variety of potato
dishes may form the basis of a diet
for a limited time, and variety can
easily be achieved by means of the
crisp vegetables.
Although for some time we were
taught that starch must be cooked
long time in order to be digestible,
we know now that this is not the
case. In fact. oatmeal and other
starchy foods that have been cooked
only for a few moments are some
times prescribed by the physician for
constipation. Scotch brose. for ex-
ample. is made by stirring oatmeal
into boiling water, taking from the
fire and allowing to stand for 10
minutes.
Try cooking breakfast oatmeal in
this fashion: Have the water boiling
and stir the oats in quickly and cook
just one minute. This makes a very
appetiZing form of breakfast food.
Oatmeal used should be of the steel
Scotch or Irish variety.
Unless chronic constipation has set
in, all foods are in one sense laxa-
tive. The mere swallow of food
is responsible for immediate action
which begins In the stomach and ex-
pands through the intestinal tract
OF course, some foods are more laxa-
tive than others, but it is well to re
member that nature provides help in
preventing constipation in the mere
act of eating. The realization of this
fact should make us doubly careful
not to lose the benefit of this tend
ency.
If contemplating a long or even
short period of some fasting for the
purpose of flesh reduction. remember
that if carried ou' beyond a certain
point fasting actually destroys part
of the body tissues Muscular tissue
begins to waste and the blood cor
puscles diminish in number. The
blood also loses iron, lime and other
salts The conclusion is, therefore.
that fasting should not be resorted
to unless under the direct advice of
a physician.
