Mr. Geo. R. Bennett, of knheid,
paid our office a pleasant call Tues
day and 3howed us quite a number
of bolls of cotton affected with an
thracnose, the disease that we wrote
about last week. Mr. Bennett is
engaged in the farmers' co-operative
demonstration work for this
end of Halifax county and he is
thoroughly alive to his work.
Mr. Bennett tells us that he finds
n rrpat deal of this anthracnose dis-
the cotton fields in this sec-
Sa!: Hp found one field that will
be damaged at least ten per cent.
He urges the farmers to get busy
and purify their seed from this dis
ease, for it is only through the seed
that'it can be entirely destroyed.
