Had there been no boil weeviI and
had the same methods been used
throughout the whole cotton belt. our
crop would have been doubled and we
should now be producing as much as
90, 100000 bales and upward a year.
This is the estimate of the late Or.
Seaman Knapp. the father of the CO.
operative demonstration work OF the
Agricultural Department throughout
the South, which has proved the sal
walton of the. country.
Before DR.. Knapp and his agents had
shown the planters what might be done
in cotton raising, Notwithstanding tho
weevil, tho farmers were in despair
They had been raising only cotton, and
the weevil became the terror of mil
lions. The planters thought 1t was i'm
possible to fight It, and man who had
LOST a big. plantation said 1t was proof
against anything under the sun. AT
one of the conventions he said he had
Pat weevil in a bottle of alcohol
which was 95 per cant. pure and left It
| there for two hours. At the end of
that time he took 1t out and put 1t
| on the table and 1t was only stagger-
| Ing. drunk. He then sealed n handful
| of the insects In a tin can and laid 1t
upon a brush heap. which was set on
fire. The fame melted the solder from
the can and the red hot weevils flew
out and burned down his barn.
| Hns Cost Millions.
Speaking seriously. however, the de-
partment estimates that the weevii has
! already cost us millions of bales OF
cotton and many millions of dollars 1t
has annually cost Texas more than
| twenty millions for series of years,
and is now ravaging the States far
ther East.
Take Mississippi. for instance the
southern part OF which State Is now
| weevIl covered. In 1906 the cotton crop
of Adams county amounted to $4,000
bales. and II was moro than 10000 in
| 1907. Then the weevil flew in, and in
1909 the Yield dropped to ZOO bales The
tenant farmers and laborers left the
county in gangs. and to-day lands can
be bought there for song IT Is the
same in some counties in Louisiana. In
Pointe Copee $4,000 bales of cotton,
which. including the seed, were worth
over s3,S00,00o. were sa.sed in 1906. and
the crop of 1907. amounting to $1,000
bales. was worth about SO. 000, 900. Then
the boil weevil came, and in 1908 the
| crop fell to 1900 bales. or to someth-
ing like 100000. These figures give
| You some Idea of what this deadly bug
means under the old cotton raising
conditions. #al
There is another feature of the SIT
uation. however. which must be mem
toned. In most parts of the cotton
belt cotton was the only crop. The
planter relied upon 1t for the money
With which he bought everything else.
He Imported his corn from the North
and his pork came from the store. He
sent abroad for his mules. and, with
the exception of perhaps a few vege-
tables. raised nothing but cotton.

ing for the water to seep away,
while the crop practically stands
still. With ample drainage the
soil will warm up more quickly
and the growth be much more
rapid, and should amount in the
course of the season to several
days earlier maturity; scoring an
other victory for drainage when
we are in more or less danger of
frosts.
AS we remarked in our earlier
article, it will require more wa
ter for irrigation when the land
is well drained. The water is now
available if secured soon. So
there are just two things to do
to make all the San Luis Valley
o"a great grain field, one big
farm with every acre productive /;
and these are, first, lowering the
water table by drainage, thus
disposing of the surplus alkali,
and second, supplying the ad-
ditional water thus made neces-
sary for furnishing the proper
amount of soil moisture for grow
ing crops. The physical PROPOSE
tion is very plain and well with
in reason and possibility. The
financial end Of the proposition is
not difficult for the very reason
one good crop will pay the en-
tire expense of both drainage
and extra water supply.
Money has to be advanced to
do the draining and supply the
extra water. This can scarcely be
advanced in cash by the present
holders. The practical way to do
it Is to form irrigation districts
and bond all the land at an equal
amount per acre to secure the
necessary funds. This can be
done by a majority of the resi-
dent freeholders of the district,
representing a majority of the
acreage included within the dis
trict, forming a district and bond
ing the land in an amount neces-
sary to secure the required cap
ital.
AS stated in an earlier
article, the development of
water by drainage bitches, said
water to be applied on lands
of the distict, is sufficient
basis for the issuance of
bonds for the building Of these
drainage or seepage bitches. And
especially is this true when the
issue is in conjunction with bonds
for the purchase of water and
the building or purchase of res
ervoirs. All these improvements
are necessary to the reclamation
of these lands, and each and
every drainage ditch will develop
water that can be used on the
lands of the district, or ex-
changed for water now being
used on lands surther down
stream.
We can see nothing in the way
of carrying out this proposition
in its entirety, and we must earn
estly recommend that immediate
steps be taken to form the neces-
sary district, sufficiently compre-
hensive in size to be able to use
a large part of the water devel-
oped in the district on some of
the lands of the district. This
will overcome any legal objection
to use irrigation district bonds.
This year is just as good as next
to begin operations. The longer
you wait the longer you will look
out across alkali flats and chico
wastes instead of fields of wav
ing grain.
