Editor Citi=en-The poisoning OF
the cotton worm is not at this time
of much interest to the general
reader, but many of your readers
are farmers and they will be glad
to know what results have attend>
ed the use of the poisons for the
worm this season.
I have witnessed the use and
closely watched the results of "LOn
don rnrp'e" and 1 do not hesi>
tate to state that armed with this
and using proper vigilance and
caution, the farmer is perfectly safe
against the ravages of tho great
enemy of the CO ton plan:
1 have seen it mixed with cot
ton seed meal and with flour and
busted over the plants, and l
have seen it put in water and
sprayed over them in both cases
the worms we're killed by whole-
sale and the cotton is now fulI>
leaved. green and growing, while
cotton near by not poisoned is strip
ped of everything except large
bolls.
Caution is of course necessary
an overdose will destroy the plant
and there is also possible danger
10 the operator, but these ohjec
tions are too easily overcome for
them to stand in the way of the de-
struction Of so great a pest as the
cotton worm,
In using the poison I would pre-
fer spraying with water, to busting
with meal or -four. The busting
process must be confined to the |
early morning, willie the dew is on
the plant. This would make the |
business too slow for large areas
Then, the poison remaining where
it falls, might, however much adtl- |
terated, accumulate TO the extent
of an overdose. In the spraying
process we have neither of these
objeci ions. The work can go on
all day, and if properly diluted
there is no danger of putting on too
much, the water running off the
plant and taking with it the poison.
The farmer has only to be vigi-
liant to know the exact time to be-
gin the work, and diligent and eau
tious in executing it, and he will
find that lie need no longer dread
the cotton worm. YEA.
