BOIL WEEVILS MIGRA
TED FROM CHICOT SECTION?
PsIlcs JsFsF Singleton Reports That he Pest
SCan scarcely De Koticea Tiers Sc EsP-.
CrsPs BesiFeyea LAST YeaP.

From the information brought to
the city by Police Juror Singleton
this week, there is a possibility that
the boil weevil has migrated from the
Chicot section of this parish. where
they were particularly thick last year,
and the first section Of this parish to
be infested.
Mr.. Singleton has observed closely
this season and he tells us that so far
he has not been able to count a half
dozen weevils, whereas last year they
were as thick as pine leaves at this
time. Further east, however, in the
Bayou Beuf section, he informs us
they are somewhat in evidence,
although not near SO numerous as
last year.
MI. Singleton attributs for the dis
appearance of the weeViI in his sec
ton TO the numerous forest fires tha5
occurred there last winter, and to the
fact that there was scarcely any cot
ton planted there last season. The
forest fires destroyed the old logs and
leaves and dead trees, and so heated
the trunks Of the sound trees that
any alternating weeyil is sure TO have
experienced a hot time.
Mr.. Singleton says that this CON
dition has encouraged him and other
farmers there to plant cotton after
the Irish potato crop has been gather
ed, which task will have been accom-
plished early next month, in time for
cotton planting.
