TEST OF FEDERAL

10 this test the Washington officials

and with possibly little anxiety. For
the point of vulnerability In the new
law. If it is vulnerable AT all, is quite
evident, II provides, in substnce, that
nothing shall be put into foods which
renders them deleterious to health
This wording furnishes the critical
point, and its significance is best ap-
preciated by comparison with the pure
food statute of Pennsylvania. The
Quaker law provides. in effect. that
nothing which is aeleterious to health
shall be put INTO foods
Now if the courts hold that the Fed

Such position, on the face of it,
looks fairly plausible On nimsier
points the defense in many criminal
cases has been based. And yet the
adoption of this view by the courts
would cripple the effectiveness of the
new legislation tremendously, and would
put the Government officials quite at
sea. In every prosecution would then
arise the point TO which manufacturers

RESULTS DEMONSTRATED
Statement of Work of Department of

edy for the Cotton Boil Weevil.
ITO The Caucasian)

On account of, the fact that the earli-
est emerging weevils feed upon the
leaves Of the young cotton, it has fire.
quently been proposed that it would be
possible to poison great numbers by the
use of paris green or similar substances.
The idea of controlling the boil weevn
in this way first occurred to the ento
mologists who investigated the pest
some twelve years ago in southwestern
Texas Extensive experiments made at
that time showed that the practice was
valueless.
A few years ago considerable atten
ton was attracted in Texas by the
claims made for paris green as rem
edy for the boil weevil Although the
previous work of the Department of
Agriculture had been conclusive, it was
deemed advisable to repeat the expert
ments on a larger scale. Accordingly

in 1904 the Bureau of Entomology con-
Quoted systematic series of expert
ments and also sent agents to examine
very many fields where planters without
governmental supervision had applied
poison to their crop.
The work of the Bureau of Entomol-
ogy IN 1904 consisted of the application
OF paris green to cotton from the time
| 1t broke through the ground. In some
cases as many as fifteen weekly appli-
cations were made. These experiments
were performed on areas of consider
able size. The results demonstrated
beyond any doubt whatever that the use
OF paris green was not effective This
CONCLUSION was corroborated by the ex-
per1ence of many planters. and more
over has been fully substantiated by ex-
cellent work done by the Louisiana Crop
Pest Commission which was planned
entirely independently.
lhe results of the departments ex-
perlments have been published in farm
ers' bulletin No. I'll, The following is
quoted from the summary in that bull
letin:
I. Persistent use of paris green from
time of chopping until picking Gin some
cases as many as fifteen applications)
has failed to materially reduce the
number of the weevils or to increase the
yield.
2. Careful examination of very many
experiments with the poison made by
planters in Texas has failed to reveal
conclusive instances of its successful
use
3. Reasons for the impossibility of
poisoning weevils successfully are to be
found in the fact that only very small
percentage emerge from Information be-
fore 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 set all feeding is done within
the shelter of the bracts (shucks) be-
yond the reach of any poison that might
be applied
he present agitation regar ing paris
green must be due to lack of knowl-
edge of what has been done by the de-
partment and practical cotton growers
in Texas. The office of the department
which is concerned with such work
fully agrees with the IO,,isiana CroD
Pest Commission in that the use of
paris green is not to be recommended.
1t would be exceedingly unfortunate for
the planters of Louisiana to fail to take
advantage of what has been done and
expend money needlessly i'll the pur-
chase of paris green.
