Roland Watson, Agricultural Expert,
Says He Sees Ample Evidence.
Beeville, Texas, Oct. 9.-Roland
Watson, the agricultural expert, was
in town this week. He says he sees
ample evidence in the cotton fields ad-
jacent to Beeville that the boil weevil
is working strongly on late blooms
and squares. He says it rests with
the farmers entirely if the 1905 crop is
to be duplicated in 1906. Destruction
of cotton stalks early enough to starve
out the alternating weevil will do the
work. Pasturing the farms, unless
done sufficiently to destroy stalks be-
fore January, will not do the work.
