“Womanless Wedding” a Success
The “Womanless Wedding’’ at
the U- D. C. Hall last Friday
made a decided hit with the
audience, one of the largest ever
seen in the hall. Every seat
was taken and many were com-
pelled to stand up during the
entire performance.
The proceeds go fob the bene-
fit of the Parent Teachers As
sociation and the financial sue
cess is very gratifying to all in-
strumental in staging the event.
The characters in the cast,
over forty in number, were se-
lected from men of all ages, and
so clever were the impersona-
tions that when the wedding
party and guests were assembled
upon the stage a stranger would
have declared, upon first sight,
that nearly all were women and
that a real wedding was in pro
gress.
The funniest entertainment
ever seen in Alvin was the unan-
imous verdict of all as they left
the hall after enjoying a riot of
fun and amusement.
A Battery of Pink Boll
Worm Truths
The non cotton zones of 1918
cost the effected counties 40,060
bales of cotton at a total value
of $8,000,010.
It is proposed to add vast areas
to the original quarantine areas
of 1918 for this year.
Quarantine action
taken in 1913
The total acreage under quar-
antine in Texas now is 13,232,-
440 acres-
Three parishes in Louisiana
have just recently been added to
this.
Cotton in seed and seed from
these parishes have gone to
practically the entire cotton belt-
These are facts taken from
official records.
If the pink boil worm can live I
in the temperate zone it is well1
established in the United States. ,
Notone pound of cotton has
been destroyed in Texas by the'
pink boll worm.
Less than three hundred spec-
imens have been found in the
immense territories inspected-
The pink boll worm is not de-
pendant upon the cotton plant
for its existence according to
Dr. Hunter’s statement in the
Journal of Economic Entomology
of 1919, volume 12. number 2.
page 173. Then if this is so non- i
cotton zones will not extermin-
ate the pest, but force it to a
change of diet. A striking ex-
ample of the inconsistency of
the Federal Board of Horticul-
tural in demanding of the state
non’eotton zones.
