Lelloy in which Mi Lelloy advises farmers to plan! all the cotton they can take card of next season. Indications are that, regard less of the advice given them Albemarle fjumers are getting ready to do that very thing. And yet The Advance is nou convinced that Mr. I.eRoy's ad vice is sound or that t lie farm ers are right. It is the unfailing experience of cotton growing regions that the first years of heavy weevil infestation are years of severe losses and of acute distress for cotton farmers. The weevil made its first ap pearance in Pasquotank in 1922. The damage that year was inappreciable; but Pasquo tank farmers were warned by County Agent Falls that a 1" per cent damage might be looked for this year. 1 hat pre diction of Mr. Falls was fully justified. Some sections of the County suffered more and some less, but the average was cer tainly as high, in our opinion, as 10 per cent. With a fairly moderate win ter this year and considerable moist weather, there would ap pear to be every reason to be lieve that boll weevil damage next year, judged by what it has amounted to in the second year of real infestation in other sec tions, would amount to from 25 to 50 per cent in Pasquotank County. It is, so ftir S3 The Advance ran* learn, practically the uh-j varying experience of other sec tions that the cotton growers have to suffer one year of al most total loss of their crop be fore they can be taught to grow cotton successfully under weevil conditions. Pasquotank may be, and The Advance hopes, will be, spai-ed that experience. Pasquotank farmers are fortunate in that they have at their hands all the information that the Govern ment has gained in the fight against the weevil in other sec tions of the cotton belt. But at the same time The Advance be lieves the Pasquotank farmer and other cotton growers of the "Albemarle would do well not to figure to6 confidently on being jOdeO? bales or eveiv *6ne bale of cotton to the acre this year. Our judgment is that until the usual period required for boir weevil Infestation to reach its height? say, two or three years ? ha? paaaeel the safest attitude for the farmer to take toward cotton would be one of extreme caution. Before coming to Elisabeth City, the editor of this newspa per had lived practically all his life where cotton was the prin cipal money crop. Frankly, even could this section be spared all further depredation from the boll weevil, he would hate U> see it become the principal money crop of the farmers of Pasquo tank.

The l ull of Fall We see right now where wc have let ourselves in for it. On the heels of publication in yes terday's issue of the paragraphs by an Elizabeth City Quillen, we find a deluge of brilliants in this morning's mail. We could nev er read them all, but here is a sample: "Fall has fallen, not because Fall wanted to fall, but because there was nothing ela# for Pall to do but fall, but instead of waiting to fall af ter next fall. Fall fell between Falls, which makes it bad for both Fall and Fall's party; and unless Fa U and Fall's party can fall upon some scheme to make a complete SPRING- 1 back. Fall's rival party may AFT FMN-atlcally fall next Fall into thej place from which Fall and Fall's party fell." Help! We gather that Edwin Denby, whatever sort of Secretary of the Navy you may call him, is a first rate fighting man. Now it seemS to be the case i of an oil's well that ends Pall.- | ELIZABETH CITY SEVEN YEARS AGO From Ihr Flic* of The Daily Advance January 30, 1917. Dr. Clarence I'oe, editor of th^ Progressive Farmer. was to address a meeting at the Alkrama Theater, to mark the climax of the Commun ity Service month. A negro restaurant . barber shop, and lodging house, the property of Dr. H. T. Aydlett, on Polndexter street, was gutted by flames. II would have been entirely destroyed had it not been for the quick wor* of the Are department who soon had three streams of water playing on it, Mr. and Mrs. J. 8. Seeley were ov erjoyed to receive a letter from their Hon, Jarvis Seeley. who shipped from Newport News the prevlo?* year in the Norwegian barque Sian* for Brazil. In Dahia. h?* said, he had ;? great time spending $50 in Unele Sam's money then at a great pre mium in South America. planned to return to the states after he had seen Australia. Secretary Pugh of the Chamber of Commerce was in ItaloiKh in the in terest of a bill to permit the building of a road from Gates County to Eliz abeth City. W. L. Cohoon and Thomas J. j Markham were in Raleigh for the. iiurpose of n^htinu Representative! Scott's bill to permit the people of j i'asquotank County to vote on vhether to retain the chain gang lysteni. - Senator Johnson of Currituck had >repared a bill to prevent the hunt nj: of ducks, ^e^se, or swan by iieans of an airplane or other flying levice. \ About the h^Ht things raised on a ' | farm are children.
