Fire Insurance has come to be not only a householder's security,
but a national necessity. The home owner must protect his family
and provide shelter; the renter must guard his "Household goods.
Business concerns, factories, churches, schools, colleges and cor
porations must protect their property Investments. The man who
can thus provide the security of a community against financial loss
from flr>i Is its Insurance agent, through his companies.

KEEPING COOL
By THOMAS A. CLARK
Dmb of Mm, University of
Illinois.
pvUIUNG the days vchcu the sun
^ pours down upon us and the ther
mometer climbs up to the one-hundred
mark, no one seems willing to let his
neighbor forget the weather.
"Is it hot enough for youT" the gro
cer's boy queries as he runs in with
the day's provisions. "Pretty hot day,"
a professor ventures, mopping his
dripping dome as be speaks. "Some
weather," the elevator boy says as I
make my exit.
Keeping cool is quite as much a mat
ter of temperament as of temperature;
it is a state of mind as well as condi
tion of the weather. The people who
stand the heat the worst are those
who never allow themselves to forget
It, who talk about It continually, who
are never still, who rush from one
place to another In a frenzy of desire
to find a cool spot; who fuss and fume
and tan until they are red in the face
and running perspiration. The best
way to keep cool is to go about your
work methodically, be as quiet as you
can, and forget the weather.
It is much the same way with the
other worries of life. We grow hot
over the slights and insults, we are
agitated over our misfortunes as we
talk of them, and let our minds dwell
upon them, and exaggerate them. We
are constantly tending the flras of
anger or resentment or they would
shortly burn themselves out.
The man who under stress and irri
tation and misrepresentation can keep
his balance, can control his tamper
and his tongue, can subdue the rising
emotions, has conserved his own
strength, has made it possible tor him
self to do more and better work, and
has more than half defeated the par
poses of his opponent.
"How can you sit so calmly and say
nothing?" I asked a friend of mine
some time ago, who was the subject of
a bitter, untruthful personal attack.
"Because the cooler I keep the hotter
and the weaker his words become,"
was the answer.
So far &s we can, we may better
take the hot words and hot days qui
etly, without comment, without phys
ical agitation. There is a force and
a strength in keeping coot.

WHEN WAS FIRST WEEVIL
FOUND IN COTTON'
Raleigh. May 26. ? During the past
February notice was sent out that tho
Division of Entomology desired to se
cure specimens qt boll weevils that
might be found durln gtho winter or
for early spring, from all sections
Prom March 1st to May over twenty
sendlngs were received and only one
was of true boll \v?evil and that
only a single specimen, all the others
were mistakes. The same experience
was had In former years. Evidently
very few people find genuine living
boll weevils before the cotton Is up
In the spring. However the one true
sending wns made April 15th and as
two other genuine boll weevils were
found by the state workers at about
the same date, It Is evident that a few
boll weevil became actlvc In mid April.
This experience wns also true last
year.
"In this state," scys Prof. Franklin
Sherman, Chief of the Division of En
tomology for the Experiment Station
and Extonslon Scrvlce, "we are reach,
lng the conclusion that approximately
mid April Is the averago time for the
earliest hibernated weevils to begin to
emerge from winter quarters. None of
these earliest specimens were on cot
ton for no cotton was up at that time.
It was scarcely planted. Wo are now
much Interested to k?Qw when the
weevils first appear on the yonng cjt.

both ot the past two yeArs the first
specimens sent to us fro4> young cot
ton were found around May 20th or
later, and hibernated we<t-il apparent

well Into June. There la therefore, a
prolonged period of emejknnre

ly the Inter a weevil emerges in the!
spring tho better its chance to leave
off-spring. It is for these reasons that
? e recommend that if poison is to be I
applied for the early weevils that it
should be applied just be*o.e the
squares begin to appec r, and not earl,
icr; we see no profit in making re
peated replications for h..rir.less wee
vils. We strive to make our racommen
dations so that each dollar spent shall
give its higlie3t and moot certain re
turn; and wo may Just as well make
use of all the naturr.l mortality among
the weevils that occurs. Our recom
mendations on this point are much
the same as those issued in the other,
cotton states for this year.
"We hope that some farmer or coun
ty agent in each coaniy will send us
specimens of the first boll weevils to
be found in young cotton. It cflladds
to tho stock of sound information on
the activities of the weevils. But don't
simply tell us about 'em,- for you may
be mistaken; send us the specimens ?
and ? send "em alive.
