Sproutin0 Onions
Onions that sprout in the kitchen
at this season should not be discard
ed. The tender green sprouts offer
q colorful and favorful pickup for
spring salads and many other dishes.
Cut the sprouts in small pieces and
add to salad green's, deviled eggs,
white sauce, cooked vegetables or
stews.
The part of the onion that has
softened may be cut away, but the
rest is still good to save and use.
Cool Comfort
With clothing on the scarce List,
summer wardrobe slackers--dresses
that loaf in the closet because they
are too uncomfortable in hot wealth
er-don't deserve a place in the
budget. Clothing specialists recon-
mend considering GOODNESS, as well
as instability, before buying or
making clothes for summer wear.
Easy-fitting styles are coolest, say
the specialists. They advise trying
on dress over the same under
clothes with which it will be worn.
If the dress is sheer enough to re-
quire heavy slip, it is likely to be
warm.
Dresses tight at neck or shoulder
or waist will be uncomfortable on
hot, sticky days. Loose fitting styles
with bloused waists and gathered or
full skirts are cooler than fitted
styles. Wide, or tight-fitting leather
belts are often uncomfortable. Be-
cause of the extra layers of material
at hip and waistline, skirt and jacket
combinations also tend to be warm.
Short, moderately wide sleeves are
more comfortable in summer than
three-quarter length or long sleeves.
Even cooler are wings" ruffles, or
the new cap sleeves. Heavy shoulder
pads made of the dress material or
a similar fabric are cooler and more
practical, particularly in house dres-
ses.
Collarless necklines are coolest.
Trimmings, collars, and ruffles that
lie nat are cooler than those that
crowd up against the throat.
Fabrics slightly stiff, 20 they win
stand away from the body, are much
cooler than fabrics that cling. Per-
nsanent-finish lawn and percale, for
example, are generally cooler than
crepe or jersey. Cottons and linens
are usually cooler than medium
weight rayon. Best for house dres-
ses are medium weight cottons that
can be worn without slip. White
and pastels, particularly blue and
green, look cooler than bright or
dark colors; however, colored back
grounds have the advantage Of not
showing soil as rapidly.

County Agent

The boll weevil report recently
published by the Agricultural Re-
search Administration, Tallulah, La,
certainly looks unfavorable for l945.
rive thousand weevils were placed
IN ten cages October 81, 1914. Be-
tween January ] and March 81 Of
this year, there were 799 weevils in
an active condition as compared to
us in 1914, 50 in i943, 4 in 1912 and
80 in l94l.
In the examination of surface
trash from woods adjacent to old
cotton fields on Is farms near Tallu-
lah, between February 26 and March
~, live boil weevils were found at
the average rate of 1912 per acre.
This report went on to state that
this Is the largest number of boil
weevils found during the spring sur
face trash examination since this
method of determining winter sur
vlvors was started 10 years ago. The
next largest spring boil weevil pop
ulation occurred in 1941 with 920
weevils per acre. 1t is easy to re-
member the boil weevil damage that
year. In Louisiana the damage was
greater than any year since 1928.
The effect of hot dry weather in
the summer has SO much to do with
the boil weevil population, it is hard
to estimate the damage that will be
done by them from research reports,
but they do indicate that with nor
NAL weather conditions, we will
have more boil weevil infestation
during the summer than usual
Farmers who expect to use cal
cium arsenate as a control measure
in case of infestation during the
summer, should consider the pur-
chase Of supply before it is actual
~ needed.
The farmers of Holmes County
viii soon know something about the
beneficial effects of the chemical
compound known as DDT since men
are working daily disinfecting farm
houses throughout the county. This
work is being done under the super
vision of the local and state Health
Departments. 1t is claimed that this
chemical compound, although not
injurious to men, is deadly to the
following insects: coddling moth,
cabbage upper, catalpa sphinx, cot
ton bollworms, cotton fleahopper,
eastern tent caterpillar, elm bark
beetle, gypsy moth, horn flies on
cattle, Japanese beetle, several kinds
of sucking plant bugs, pink boll-
worm, velvet bean caterpillar, white
fringed beetles, mosquitoes, bedbugs,
lice on man and house flies and fleas
in buildings.
DDT is not effective against boil
weevil cotton lice and cotton leaf
worm.
There is no doubt that this chemi-
cal will be one of the most bene-
ficial insecticides in existence as
soon as supplies are available.
The Delta Experiment Station car
ried on an experiment for 10 years

Jenkins Return Buoys
Navy for Saturdays
Tilt With Michigan

ANNAPOLIS, Md, Nov. 7.-Navy's
prospects for its battle with Michi-
gan Saturday at Baltimore Stadium
appeared brighter today with the
Middies' regular backf1eld ready to
go for the first time this season.
Navy's new-found joy came in
the announcement from Comdr.
Oscar Hagberg, head coach, that
big Bob jenkins, the pile-driving
fullback, is back in shape and will
join Bob Horenschemeyer, Bob
Kelly and Clyde Scott in the back
field.
jenkins has seen little action in
Navys six games this season, but
Hagberg said he now seems like the
free-wheeling rocket of old in prac-
tice.
There probably will be another
familiar face on the Navy line that
has been missing since the Georgia
Tech game. Tackle Chuck Kiser is
expected back in the starting lineup
replacing Newbold Smith. Kiser
was hurt in the Georgia Tech
struggle and missed both the Penn
and Notre Dame games.
