INJURY BY WEEV|LS
Insect Moves About but Little
 Except in the Fall.
Pest May Be Greatly Reduced by Picking Them Off the Little Cot ton Until Squares Begin

 Farmers who destroy the squares, bolls and foliage-the sole food sup ply of the weevil--on or before Octo- Der 20 and add strength to this almost knockout blow by blowing under all the weevils in the cracks and holes in the ground and in the grass and trash on the ground and by destroy ing practically all the weevils hiber- hating along the turn-rows, fences, hedges, and in general the vicinity of the fields and follow up the destruc. tion by picking the weevils off the little cotton until the squares begin to form and by picking up the pune tured squares for at least one month after the squares begin to form. will certainly reduce the number of boil weevils to the minimum.
 When the over-wintered weevils emerge from winter quarters in the spring and reach the little cotton there is little further movement until the general dispersion season in Au- gust, September and October. The over-wintered weevils go from winter quarters to the nearest cotton field and remain there until the migratory period in the fall. The fact that the weevil moves about but little except in the fall makes it possible for an individual farmer to obtain the best result from his own efforts in fighting the pest. There is little danger of the arrival of weevils from fields where they have not been picked of the little cotton until in August when the cotton crop is normally set. The danger of the movement of weevils from farm to farm before August Is not important enough to warrant any farmer in hesitating to thoroughly pick the weevils and punctured squares.

Under such conditions it is not necessary for the over-w!n- tered weevils to multiply before the squares are punctured as fast as they form on the cotton. When the over wintered weevils are sufficiently nu' merous to puncture the squares as fast as they form no cotton will be made unless the weevils are picked of the little cotton and the punctured squares destroyed
 Dr. w. D. Hunter of the bureau of en. tomology estimates the possible prog. eny of single pair of weevils during a season beginning on June 20 and ex. tending to November at 12,755, 100. Nature has provided a number cs agencies to prevent such excessive multiplication. however. the picking of pair of weevils of the little cot ton means millions less later on. Ev- cry pair of weevils picked of the little cotton and destroyed reduces the mum. Der of puncture squares and bolls by millions.

Pumpkins Too Watery.

Pumpkins as feed for hogs can hard ly be compared in value with corn. The field pumpkin is about 90 per cent water, and the sweet pumpkin about so per cent A feed containing so much water cannot be used sue cessfully as a substitute for such a feed as corn, which contains only 10 to 12 per cent. water.
 The pumpkin therefore is valuable not as a substitute for, but as a sup clement to, the grain ration. Used h this way it is very valuable, both for COWS and hogs. Brood sows can be put in good shape for the breeding season with pumpkins and grass.
 Pumpkins should not be fed heav- fly to fatteniA2 hogs: 8 moderate al lowance with the corn will make bet ter gains because of the variety and succulent, but they are too bulky to feed heavily during the fattening period.
