NO CONTROL DISCOVERED
KOR COTTON BOLL WEEVIL
Small encouragement to those who
are seeking new methods of control
for the cotton boll weevil is given by
C. E. Sanborn, etomologist at Okla-
homa A. and M. College, Stillwater.
"A few years ago. shortly after the
boll weevil appeared in the cotton
country, a reward of $50,000 was of-
fered for its contrtol," Sanborn says.
'As a result, hundreds of people, both
in the cotton belt and throughout the
non-cotton growing areas, tried their
skill in inventing machines and pre-
paring cojicoctions which it was
hoped would control the pest. Un-
fortunately, no method over proved
sufficiently satisfactory to warrant
the payment of the $50,000.
The weevil infestation, especially
in Oklahoma, has been more severe
this year than perhaps at any other
time during the history of its infesta-
tion in this state. As o consequence,
several persons have tried to study
out a method for its control. Some
have invented machines with the idea
of controlling the pesl. Unfortunate-
ly as a general thing, these persons
have not considered the progress pre-
viously made in the way of inventions
and elaborations of concoctions. As
a consequence, much duplication is
being done at an unnecessary ex-
pense. This department would be
glad to confer with parties contem-
plating such devices before they in-
cur any expense along such lines. It
is not our desire to discourage any-
one; in fact we desire to encourage
progress as much as possible and per-
haps may be able to help persons to
make headway along these lines.
"I have studied the boll weevil
very closely for seventeen years, and
in the beginning especially in the
heart of the boll weevil Infested area
of Texas where every opportunity
was available for giving it complete
consideration. Like others who de-
sired to obta'n the $50,000 prixe, I
was unable to solve the problem and
cannot now offer any better method
of control than that which is adviseo
by both stafe and federal entomolo-
gists throughout the cotton growing
sections of the United States. This
method iis the calcium arsenate treat-
ment which requires considerable
skill and a Iso expense on part of the
person making the application."

PEHKHINCi IN FRANCE
The only active wearer of four
stars in the United Slates Army is
back in France, and from all accounts
is receiving a welcome there such as
Marshal Foch will receive when he
visits these United States. "To those
who admired Pershing whilv the war
was in progress, who believed that he
beamed a great responsibility and
performed a great service with a
more notable success than was credit-
ed to him by those who said that
"anybody else could have done it,"
there is a satisfaction in knowing
that France is giving him a wonder-
ful roception, because France appre-
ciates even better than America some
of the actual achievements of the
commander of the late A. E. F.
Gen. Pershing's position as com-
mander of the American troops over-
seas was one thing; his actual mili-
tary accomplishments, his personal
share in the planning and achieve-
ment of the American victories is
another thing. The American pub-
lic has not yet been supplied with
historical dr.ta written from a proper
perspective to give a full apprecia-
tion of what Pershing did. It stills
knows him more for his position than
for the detailed facts of his accom-
plishment.
Perhaps nobody realized this bet-
ter than Gen. Pershing. He never
displayed his keen insight into Amer-
ican public opinion more clearly than
when he quietly kept aloof from sug-
gestions that he run for president.
He has, by the calm poise of natural
I modesty, avoided the many tempta-
tions thrust upon so many popular
"heroes" to make themselves ridicu-
lous. He has gone farther and dis-
played the serious purpose of a full-
sized American by refusing to accept
retirement at the time which might
have been called the height of his
popularity. Oil the other hand, he
has accepted new work and new res-
ponsibilities in face of the fact that
he cannot expect In peace time any-
thing like the recognition and ap-
plause which his work won in war-
time.
Because we who served under Per-
jshing are now more than ever con-
vinced that he is a full-sized Ameri-
can, we will be glad that he is en-
joying sn enormously fine welcome
by France. We can believe that he
is quite as happy to return to visit
old scenes overseas as you or I would
be. and he is deserving of that privi-
lege. We know that his visit will
I be one of many incidents that will
'help hold close the ties which bino
jour hearts to the people of the brave
'republic to the east of the Atlantic.
jThus it seems that for a good many
I reasons we are glad Pershing has
I made this trip to France.- Stars and

Taste is a matter of
tobacco quality
We state it as our honest belief
that the tobaccos used in Chester-
field are of finer quality (and
hence of better taste) than in any
other cigarette at the price.

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot l$e Cured
by local Applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure catarr-
hal deafness, and that is by a consti- !
tutional remedy. Catarrhal deat'nesb;
is caused by an inflamed condition of
the mucous lining of the Eustachain
tube. When this tube is inflamed
\ ou have a rumbling sound or im- !
perfect hearing, and when it is en 1
lirely closed, deafness is the result.
Unless the inflammation can be re-
duced and this tube restored to its'
normal condition, hearing will be de-'
stroyed forever. Many cases of deaf-
ness are caused by catarrh, which Is
an inflamed condition of the mucous
