Malloy & "IMPROVED MEHOD" OF BOLL WEEVIL CONTROL Great importance is attached to the recently discovered "Imprpved method" for controlling the boll weevil made by the State Plant Board' ol Florida. The fact that it has beer found practical to bring cottor back into * Florida is very im portant to the other state: because in Florida the milder winter: do not kill as many boll weevil, anc the heavy rainfall during the longci .summer greatly favors the pest. TVtia rv*-1. > ihvmivu ui tumiui snows conclusively that any farmer, white oi black, need have no fear in growing cotton under boll weevil conditions, This "Improved Method" is & radical departure from those control methods that have beei^pdvocated foi the past twenty years. The ordinary calcium arsenate method of treating boll weevil has proven successful to some extent. While this method of control hat not been worked out, or tried, in any other states than Florida, there at present appears no theoretical reason why it should not be applicable to the other states. In the light oi the information which is at present uvo IIqKIm fUo J 1,1 ..UU,V, MIC IIIIIIIUVCU Minou , IS briefly this: Remove % all squares, whether punctured or unpunctured, from the cotton plants just before the first bloom appears in the field. Follow this at once, or within a day or two, or before the squares start growing back, with a thorough idusting of each plant with either calcium arsenate or powdered arsenate of lead. This poison should be applied by means of a hand dust gun, which forces the poison into the top buds of the cotton plant where the boll weevil feeds when there are no squares.

BY BUYING y CHRISTMAS SEAL! y - In the days of Knights and furie g and three-headed, fire-breathing moil sters, all the strength of the Knight and the magic of the fairies wa j pitted against the ruthlcssness o k the lire-breathing beast when he in Evaded the land and left death in hi: 8' ^rakc. "| And yet in the fair state of Soutl J Carolina, there stalks a spectre fa eimore deadly than the three-headet -! monster of olden times, a spectri j whose trail is marked by sufferint 3 * and desolation and death. Tbi: » i deadly thing that goes so stealthily , and fleet-;footf!tl through the lant f is the "Great White Plague". Anc there is only a half-hearted pitting of forces to stop the ravages of this ghastly monster, j In South Craolina at the presen time there are known to be mor< than 16,000 active cases of taibercul , ums, a put teiu in wmiii i: among the working people of tht state. Of this number about three_ fourths of the cases are younj f! people between the ages of 20 ant 35 years of age. The tragic pari of this is that less than 200 oi . these cases are in sanitoria, thus leaving more than 15,800 cases ii the homes throughout the state. In most of these homes, the peoph , are ignorant of the methods of prevention and cure, and are not only losing the fight against tuberculosis but ure greatly endangering the , lives of those with whom they come in contact. , Many of these cases are of the ambulatory type and are to be found [ on the streets, in moving picture theatres and other public place? where, through ignorance and carelessness, they are jcodpardizing the lives of those about them. In the homes of these cases are more than , 20,000 children who are constantly exposed to the disease and who will develop it later, probably, unlos* taught to prevent it. ; Of the 16,000 cases in South Caro, lina at lejist 60 per cent, or 9,600, could be cured if proper treatment were available, and a large per cent of the others could be so improved mat tney couiu earn a living ana 01 perfectly safe to themselves and to the public. The recent report of the Framingham, Mass., demonstration showed that in Framingham, where adequate financial, medical and educational provision was made for the fight against tuberculosis during the last eight years, the death rate from this disease had been reduced two-thirds, This same thing can be done in South Carolina. It would mean the reduction of the annual number of cases from 16,000 to 5,300 it^eight years, and in a few additional years the disease could be wiped out of the state. At the present time the South Carolina Tuberculosis Association with its related local associations, the A n i.TnKoi'Piilnciu t An. derson, Charleston, Greenville and Greenwood County Associations, arc cooperating with the state and local boards of health in the fight to rid South Carolina of the "Great White Plague." These organizations arc ; principally financed by the sale ol Christinas seals. All of them arc pitifully hnndicapped for lack ol money with which to carry on the i programs they have already under' taivcii, uiutii lunh urii^ nun* IU ini i ) out the larger program they musl adopt if tuberculosis is to be wiped out of South Carolina. , The annual sale of Christmas seals begins December 1st and continues until Christmas. Every seal hou^hl is one step nearer the j?oal and sharp . ens the weapon used in the fitfhi t against this disease. 1 NOTICE OF SALE OF VALUABLE REAL ESTATE Notice is hereby given that on th< first Monday of December 1922, be fore the Court House door at Ches terfield, South Carolina, within th< icgai nours, we win oner tor sale t< the highest bidder for cash the follow invc tracts of land in Court Housi Township: First.That tract of land nea Chesterfield containing 48 acres, o more or less, bounded by lands o R.

Of late, even tho prices of lumber are advaneincr 11 11 started a building boom, and quite a number of building projects are contemplated for the near future.

Follow this at once, or within a dayor two, or before the squares startgrowing back, with a thorough idustingof each plant with either calciumarsenate or powdered arsenate oflead.

s "T. B." BY BUYING

y CHRISTMAS SEAL!

y -

In the days of Knights and furieg and three-headed, fire-breathing moil

sters, all the strength of the Knightand the magic of the fairies wa

j pitted against the ruthlcssness o

k the lire-breathing beast when he inEvaded the land and left death in hi:8' ^rakc."| And yet in the fair state of SoutlJ Carolina, there stalks a spectre faeimore deadly than the three-headet-! monster of olden times, a spectri

j whose trail is marked by sufferint3

*

and desolation and death. Tbi:»

i deadly thing that goes so stealthily, and fleet-;footf!tl through the lant

f is the "Great White Plague". Ancthere is only a half-hearted pittingof forces to stop the ravages of thisghastly monster,

j In South Craolina at the presentime there are known to be mor<

than 16,000 active cases of taibercul, ums, a put teiu in wmiii i:

among the working people of thtstate. Of this number about three_fourths of the cases are younj

f! people between the ages of 20 ant

35 years of age. The tragic pariof this is that less than 200 oi

. these cases are in sanitoria, thusleaving more than 15,800 cases iithe homes throughout the state.

In most of these homes, the peoph, are ignorant of the methods of preventionand cure, and are not only

losing the fight against tuberculosisbut ure greatly endangering the, lives of those with whom they come

in contact., Many of these cases are of theambulatory type and are to be found

[ on the streets, in moving picturetheatres and other public place?where, through ignorance and carelessness,they are jcodpardizing thelives of those about them. In thehomes of these cases are more than

, 20,000 children who are constantlyexposed to the disease and who willdevelop it later, probably, unlos*taught to prevent it.

; Of the 16,000 cases in South Caro,lina at lejist 60 per cent, or 9,600,could be cured if proper treatmentwere available, and a large per centof the others could be so improvedmat tney couiu earn a living ana 01

perfectly safe to themselves and tothe public.

The recent report of the Framingham,Mass., demonstration showedthat in Framingham, where adequatefinancial, medical and educationalprovision was made for the fightagainst tuberculosis during the lasteight years, the death rate from thisdisease had been reduced two-thirds,

This same thing can be done inSouth Carolina. It would mean

the reduction of the annual numberof cases from 16,000 to 5,300 it^eightyears, and in a few additional yearsthe disease could be wiped out of thestate.

At the present time the SouthCarolina Tuberculosis Associationwith its related local associations, the

A n i.TnKoi'Piilnciu t An.

derson, Charleston, Greenville andGreenwood County Associations, arc

cooperating with the state and localboards of health in the fight to ridSouth Carolina of the "Great WhitePlague." These organizations arc

; principally financed by the sale olChristinas seals. All of them arc

pitifully hnndicapped for lack olmoney with which to carry on the

i programs they have already under'taivcii, uiutii lunh urii^ nun* IU ini i )out the larger program they musladopt if tuberculosis is to be wipedout of South Carolina.

, The annual sale of Christmas sealsbegins December 1st and continuesuntil Christmas. Every seal hou^hlis one step nearer the j?oal and sharp

. ens the weapon used in the fitfhit against this disease.

Both appeared before Magistralt Teal and Mr. Arant was fined $£- ttna mr. 1'yier $20."

When the letter was shown 13 Magistrate Teal he said, "Well, I wi: show you the docket, and you won" "have to take anybody's word."> The dock A. read: "Walker Aran1 charged with carrying unlawful, gui^ Came into court and pled guilt^ Fined $50.00 or thirty days c! gang."1 The magistrate stated that he Jiaunder advisement a reduction of ttfine on jyod behavior but decision o

CHESTERFIELD GOINGBEATIFULLY FORWARD

ed_____

It is a noteworthy fact that whilobusiness conditions are improving all

C. over the country that Chesterfield iakeeping step with the procession. Allour dry goodA- merchants report the

^ best trade this fall since 1919. Theirstores are constantly crowded with

ke shoppers asd the holidav seasoh his- ..r

not as yet started. The high pricesi *a" of cotton have had a good effect allalong the line, cheering up even thosewho are so unfortunate as net toOf have nay cotton, while those who aretislucky enough to have the fleecy stapleare all smiles.

I It is a fact that one can Thirdlyhire a carpenter in Chesterfield, forall are busy and engaged ahead forsome time. Of late, even tho pricesof lumber are advaneincr 11

11started a building boom, and quitea number of building projects arecontemplated for the near future.Some of the work going on is the

new store building that the Peoples,j Rank is having erected next to Square, Deal Drug Co., the handsome home of

Mr. W. P. Odom in east Chesterfield.t Mr. J. P. Brantley is having eonstruet'ed a new home on West End Avenue. .n.

Mr. J. S. McGregor is going to con^struct a house on Craig St. Andall around town our citizens are havinn1bath rooms added to their homes,preparatory to installing waterworks.

in Messrs. T. W. Eddins and C. L. Huntleyare planning the erection of eotntages.Mr. I. P. Mangum is going to erect

a new home on West End Avenueethat will be an addition to that fast

e growing! suburb. Messrs. R. E. Riv(£ers and J. C. Rivers are contemplal_ting erecting a block of four brickt,

store buildings on Main Street. Thereis a demand for these stores' rightJ.ONV.'e

(j Mr. B. F. Teal is figuring on erectinga two-story brick store building.0

All the churches of Chesterfield^ have building pr >gran.s for 1923

The Baptists are going to erect an

1 elegant new. church building that willbe an ornament to the town.

The Presbyterians have alreadypurchased a lot on the corner oppositeM.r C. P. Mangum's and willerect a haa.lsoiv.c structure. TheMethodists are planning ^o constructadequate Sunday school rooms on.the '

lot in the rear of their ^hunch.It is a foreirone faot tlm* f.hoc-. »

terfiold ivill erect next year a HighSchool building, as this is a necessity.

e With a total enrollment of over 400and a Hi enrollment ot 12b1 it is

imperative that more rooms be constructedfor our fast growing school..s It is contemplated to erect a modern!* High School Building at a cost of

about $25,000 and install a healing[11 plant for both new and old building.ie This is one project that every one in

Chesterfield will cooperate in, as we. all are unanimous in supporting the

cause of the education of the youthof the country.

With the new $25,000 electriclight plant that is the equal of the

e Yadkin River Power Co., in the brilliancyof its lights, with ample cur,rent for all size motors, and theJm new $75,000 waterworks and sewerageplant in operation. Chesterfield

is awakening and is just now beginnirto take its nlace on the man.

v. New people are wanting to move

ls to Chesterfield and the housing demandis greater than the supply. Itrs is hoped that some of our citizens.,j many who are able.will erect cottagesfor rent in the near future.

Costs of construction are advancing... and huildinirs can he erected in the

near future cheaper than they can

jp Jater as all prices for 1923 will prob,eably be higher.
