Paris Green and Weeyi1,

That the boil weevil is not to be
driven out Of our Southern cotton
fields by the use Of paris green is the
conclusion Of the Bureau Of Entomol-
Cgy Of the Department Of Agriculture
after extensive observations and e1-
periments. This conclusion is based
upon the following facts: Il: Persist
ent use Of paris green from the time
OF chopping until picking Gin some
cases as many as fifteen applications
has failed to materially reduce the
numbers of the weevils Or to increase
the yield. 2. Careful examination Of
very many experiments with the poi
son made by planters in Texas has
failed to reveal conclusive instances
of it's successful USE 8. Reasons for
the impossibility of poisoning weevils
successfully are to be found in the
facts that only a very small percent
age emerge from Information before
the squares are set upon the plants,
that they do not drink the dew on the
leaves at night. and that as soon as
squares are set all feeding is done
within the shelter Of the bracts

son that might be applied

Glover Fields About Webster City Are
Being Eaten Bare.

WEBSTER CITY, IOWA-Portions of Hamil-

The pests are destroying all the late green
feed and doing much damage.
R. V. Cutler reports that hoppers have de-
stroyed field of clover on his farm. The field
is bare of everything but the clover stems, the
leaves having all been eaten by the pests. The
work Of the grasshoppers was not noticeable
until after the harvest had been finished. when
they seem to have settled over the clover fields
and eaten them bare.
Farmers are thankful that the grasshoppers dill
not make their appearance until late and that
there is now nothing for them to destroy but
the late clover fields.
