BOIL WORM WORK
HAD REPORT RECEIVED FROM Es-
 GAMBIA COUNTY.
President Seymour, of Alabama. Divis- ion of Cotton Associat0in, Receives Sample of the Devastation of
 Cotton BOll.

President W. H. Seymour, of the Alabama Division of the Southern Cot ton Association, has just received a sample of the boil worm which Is saiS to be doing considerable damage to the open cotton bolls of Escambia County, and that Section of the State. The box containing the sample was sent Mr. Seymour by w. J. Holland, Tax Assessor of Escambia County.
 Mir. Holland said that he sent dif- fereat sizes of the bolls and of the in- sects in order that it mgiht be seen how they work on the plant in all its stages. He expressed the belief that they are destructive to the plant as the boil wee- vii where they attack the late crop. They showed up about August 20, on crop that was planted late and have been so busy that he will make only about a third of a crop he says. They have been reported in other parts of the county, Mr. Holland says and he fears they will be destructive to many hundreds of the boIls that otherwise would yield rchly. He Is anxious to have some help if there is any way to secure it.
 MT. Seymour says that he has heard of the boil worm in other counties, Montgomery not escaping. They are In less numbers in many parts or the State and he Is fearful that they will cut the crop down very much. They are A vtndicitive sort of insect and cut hnd saw with will and energy that gets the crop where they attack in bad shape very soon. He hopes to get some help to the farmers who are suffering, giving the situation much hard study to that end.
