SOME IDEAS FOR
COTTON PLANTER
Cowpea Weevil an Enemy
to the Young Cotton.
CHOPPING THE REMEDY
The Difference Between the
Cowpea Weevil and Boil
Weevil Explained.

The time has now arrived when
the young cotton plants will be
subject to the attack of a number
of insects.
While the boil weevil is the
enemy most to be feared after the
cotton has reached the fruiting
stage, the one likely to do most
damage to the cotton just as it
appears above ground, and shortly
afterwards, is the cowpea weevil.
For several seasons past these
weevils have been abundant dur
ing April and May and there is
no reason for believing that they
will be less numerous this spring
than heretofore. The following
information concerning this pest,
and the suggestions for avoiding
its injury, are therefore not amiss
at the present time.
The cowpea-pod weevil is
small black beetle, about the same
size as the boil weevil. The ap-
pearance of the cowpea-pod wee
vii upon young cotton plants dur
ing April and May often causes
great alarm to farmers who mis-
take it for the boil weevil, and as
it sometimes feeds upon the cot
ton quite voraciously for a few
days, is a pest of some little
consequence when exceptionally
abundant.
The natural aud favorite host
plant of the cowpea-pod weevil is
the cowpea,-and when cowpeas
are available it does not attack
cotton. The eggs of this insect
are deposited in the pods of cow
peas and the little grubs Matching
from these eggs develop inside the
pods, emerging in late summer as
adults.
The winter is passed by the
adult cowpea-pod weevils, hiber-
mating in much the same manner |
As does the boil weevil. In spring |
these adult cowpea-pod weeviIs
leave their winter quarters before
cowpeas have come up and, need
ing subsistence until their favorite |
food plant is provided by the
farmer, turn their attention to
the tender young, cotton plants,
eating into the leaves and stems.
Their favorite point for attacking i
the small cotton plants, appears
usually to be the main stem, just
where the leaves branch off. A
hole eaten into the stem at this
point of course soon causes Il 9
plant to wilt and die down.
Treatment of the cotton plant
with Paris green or other arseni-
cal poison would be of doubtful
efficiency as the insect, after tear
ing off the surface tissue, feeds on
the inner portion of the stems
where poison could not be made
to reach.
Fortunately. expensive trea.-
ments involving an outlay for
poisons and labor, are entirely
unnecessary, for the farmer can
save a good stand of cotton, de-

A Splendid Institution.

Church was filled on Sunday

home for orphan children has
grown from a small beginning
within a very few years to be a

spite the attacks OF these insects,
by judicious management of the
"choppings." The attacks of the
cowpea-pod weevil are not long
continued and it is very rare in
deed that they destroy over one
half of the plants.
Chopping of the cotton should
be delayed until the bulk of the
damage is over, or as nearly to
that time as circumstances will
permit, so that while the insects
ARE at work, their injury will be
distributed among the greater
number of plants. After the ex-
tent of the damage is ascertaIned
the chopping can be done and
enough healthy plants will by
that time have escaped the insects
to permit a good stand being left.
If cotton be chopped out when
the insects are actively at work
on the cotton, their attack would
be concentrated upon the few
plants left and much danger
would thus be incurred of the
entire stand being destroyed.
When cowpeas appear above
ground the cowpea-pOd weevils
leave the cotton and turn their
attention to the cOwpeas, where
they remain for the balance of
the summer. Although it is not
impossible that this weevIl may in
future years increase to such an
extent as to be a serious enemy of
cowpeas. its injury to the cowpea
crop thus far has consisted mainly
in reducing the yield of seed; the
yield of hay and forage has not
been materially affected.
During the midsummer few
cowpca-pod weevils are OCCASION
ally found on the cotton plants.
and doubtless they now and then
puncture a boil or square for
feeding purposes, but several
years observations have failed to
reveal single case in which they
deposited eggs in the squares
or bolls;injury of any consequence
by them to the fruiting cotton
need not be feared.
The cowpea-pod weeviI, being
so nearly the same size as the boil
weevil, Is often mistaken for the
latter. The two insects are, how
ever, easily distinguished. The
cowpea-pod weevil is shorter and
more robust in form than the boil
weevil. The body of the boil
weevil, as seen under a magnify
ing glass is covered with thou
sands of minute hairs, which give
q general grayish or brownish
color to the boil weevil, while the
cowpea-pod weevil's body. on the
other hand, is devoid of hairs, Is
a smooth shining jet-black color
and when magnified is seen to he
with minute indentations
Or pits.
The femur, or first joint of the
foreleg of the boil weevil, has on
its inner aspect, two minute black
spines, while the femur of the
foreleg of the cowpea-pod weeviI
has but one small spine in this

NAMING A
SUCCESSOR TO
L|TTLEF|ELD

Washington. May According to
reports from Maine, a successor for
Representative Charles E. Little
field. who has attained national rep
utaion while representing the Second
Maine district in the house, will be
nominated today by the Republicans
Of that district. Congressman Little
field has rendered his resignation to
take effect on September 30. and
many prominent Republicans of
Maine are contesting for the honor
Of succeeding him. 1t is said that
Littlefield will accept" position
with a western railroad, paying at
least $50 900 year.
Mr. Littlefeld has not retired while
under fire. Opposition to his renom-
inAtion has been withdrawn and he
would have been unanimously nomi-
mated and 1t Is understood that tine
convention would have given him
great ovation to show that the dis
tIict was loyal to him.
1t is generally thought that it will
be difficult matter for the second
district to send man to congress
who will achieve such national prom
inence. His work in congress ia re-
called, how he sprung into prominence
by his great speech on the Roberts
case, the debate ON the Porto Rican
tariff, his great argument on the rail-
road rate bill, his fight in the anti
pilotsge matter. his efforts to abolish
the army canteen and his work on
labor matters are all spoken about to.
day. Mr.. Littlefeld had host Of
friends among the Temperance and
prohibition people and he WAS al
ways found battling for the Maine
law whether he was at home or
abroad.
One of the great fights in which
Mr.. Littlefeld distinguished him
self WAS In the campaign of 1906
when he defed Samuel Gompers,
who went to the Second district
with the avowed purpose Of defeating
Mr.. Littlefeld and brought with him
number Of men to try to encompass
the defeat Of Mr.. Littlefeld. The
speeches Of Mr.. Littlefield In that
campaign we're notable ones.
