Cotton Leaf Worms Appear
In all sections of the county
we are having an infestation of
another cotton insect—the cotton
leaf worm. This is rather un-
usual since it is a little early for
these insects and in view of the
dry. hot weather that we have
been having recently. Oriiinar-
■- i ily, the first wqrms that appear,
.j- feed only on the leaves, but the
of damage increases with the second
and third broods. In many cases
the worms damage the young
bolls, and squares.
Since the leaf worm is a
"chowing insect” it can be con-
trolled by a number of stomach
poison dusts or sprays. The best
one dust for the control is cal-
cium arsenate, but it is all but
imposible to get this material
on the market at this time. The
dust should be applied at the
rate of 5 to 7 pounds per acre.
As. a spray use 3 pounds of Cal-
cium arsenate to 50 gallons of
water.
Lead Arsenate may also be
■used, but’ it is more expensive,
slower to ".kill, and often burns

parts hydrated lime to orte part
lead arsenate to keep’ it from
burning. After the dilution, use
at the same rate per ac^re as for
calcium arsenate. As a spray,

' HITLER TACTICS EMPLOYED BY LABOR
To put the matter bluntly, it is’ clear that certain power-
fuLlabor leaders have one aim in mind: To make it impos-
sible, for any man to obtain a job, any man to earn a living,
unless he belongs to a labor union. These labor leaders, in
Short, are driving toward a labor monopoly -and toward
. personal dictatorship over every wobkin&mah m this country.
. In pursuing that goal, these leaders will use any weapon
that comes to hand. They will call strikes in defense indus-
, tries, apparently not caring a whit that the country’s security
and safety are thereby imperiled. They will rig labor elec-
tions in one way or another, so that the ordinary union man
is virtually voiceless.

Expensive spraying and dust-
ing machinery is not as necessary
in controlling the leaf worm as
it is for the flea hopper and the
weevil. Since the leaf worm eats
the leaves, it is only necessary to
get the dust or spray on top of

These poisons are all deadly
for livestock, insects and people.

for the government itself in this Imuuif grave crisis indicates
the way -.the wind blows.’ They make totally unjustified
and impossible demands c^n'Industry on an “or else” basis.
Their methods often are -as vile as those of‘the gangster.
Their projected labor monopoly is one of the most serious
problems' this country ever faced.t Left alohe as it was, the
laboHquestion was making rapid progress toward an ideal
situation. With the passage of one-sided legislation that gave
the gangsters ellmeht an ideal opening for their nefarious
business, the labor situation has passed out of thb hands of
the laborers themselves.
If this state of affairs exists long enough, the country will
*be helpless and suffer finally, the fate of France. ■ ~

WHERE WE LEAD THE WORLD ‘r
At the end of the last war, a leading British statesman
made this significant observation: “The Allies sailed to vic-
tory on a sea of oil.’’

will again be largely determined by. the petroleum assets of p™tesc
the antagonists. And that is where Germany is weak—and
Britain and the United States are strong.
The oil companies of our country produce 63 per cent
of the world’j oil. And, equally important, they, produce an
pven higher percentage of the high-grade gasoline that is
necessary to obtain maximunAperformance from afrcrafT
engines. According flPone authority, our gaso'line is so su-
perior that our military planes fly 30 per cent faster, carry
20 per cent more bombs and can climb above anti-aircrait
’ fire 25 per cent more quickly than can Germany’s compar-
able types. Germany can obtain only 3 per eent of the
world’s natural oil supply from within Europb.

military machine, but to fueling the factories which are
building it. Indispensable sources of industrial power are
coal and electricity. In the face of deficits, legislative prob-
lems and-labor troubles, the coal industry has maintained its
high state of production. ^Lnd'thc private electric industry

RUSSIA; A DARK HORSE?
In wars, as in horse races, tlu- long short occasionally up-,
sets the dope-and comes through for a win. Some of the
experts are now Ciutiously hazariling the guess that this may
prove true of the Russians. 7 ! ~ ”------——
When, the German-Russian waif began, the bulk of the
military authorities reluctantly agreed that Hitler was prob-
ably right when he said that it would be over in six weeks.
Those six weeks and more have now passed, and the Rus-
sians, instead of retreating in confusion, are said to be plan-
ning gigantic counter-attacks. The Germans have not taken
any areas of major importance. The Red air force. Whieh.
according td German claims, was almost totally destroyed in
the early days of-Ahe fighting, is still very much in evidence
and is giving excellent support to the Soviet land forces.
The Red meghaiuzed equipment, \y.hieh was supposed to be
second-rate, has, according to some reporters who have seen
it in action, actually* proven equal and even superior to the
German. Most important of all. the morale of tlm Russian,
people—military and civilian alike—seems to have proven
far more staunch than anyone expected. ' - »
Germany has not lost the Russian war. It would not
come as any great surprise if Hitler’s forces yet succeed in
taking Moscow, Leningrad and other key cities. But these
wotyld be hollow victories unless, at the same time. Hitler
was able to destroy Russian military power. So long as sub-
stantial Red armies remain in existence and fighting, Hitler
will not be safe no matter how much Russian territory he
succeeds in conquering. On top of that, Russian civilians
have shown an almost ..suicidal fervor "in. destroying areas
* which have been exacuated, and in sniping at German troops.
The Russians are fighting a total war in total fashion how,
and they have demonstrated surprising courage.
Best of all, from the British-American point of view, is
the apparent fact that Germany is suffering terrific losses.
On August 2, the Russians claimed that 1,500,000 Reich troops
had been killed, wounded or captured. That may represent
a big exaggeration—neither the Russian nor the German
propaganda ministries can be depended upon for the whole
truth. But, if even a third or half that many German troops
have been incapacitated, it is a severe reverse to Hitler. The
first divisions sent into Russia were the cream of the German
crop—the tough veterans of the P^Jish, French and Low
countries campaigns. No nation can create soldiers of that
auality overnight. That may explain reports to the effect
that the reserves Germany has lately sent into Russia have
proven inferior in quality to the men who preceded them.
It also seems unquestioned that Germany has lost vast
quantities of rflrcraft and rechanized
consumed immense amounts of oil, that r
war materials. Russian bombers have been invading the
Rumanian oil fields, and may have done considerable damage.
And in the meantime, Britain has been carrying on deter-
mined, big-scale air raids against the ontinent.
