Washington. -- Reduction OF boil
weevils in the cotton belt during 1911
undoubtedly had an important bear
ing on the production of the cotton
crop, in the opinion Of w. d. Hunter
Of the department Of agriculture's
bureau of entomology. On a report
on the movement Of the Mexican cot
ton boil weevii, Mr.. Hunter says:
During 1911 the boil weevil was
greatly reduced in numbers through
out the entire region This resulted
from a combination of climatic influ'
ences extending over a period Of
about three years. The insect was ex-
terminated in about $4,000 square
miles in northwestern Texas and west.
ern Oklahoma. Undoubtedly these
conditions had an important bearing
on the large crop of 1911.
Notwithstanding the great reduc'
ton, considerable advance was made
TO the East and North when the dis.
persion movement began in August
The recurrence Of the climatic con
dtions which did so much toward re
ducing the numbers of boil weeyils
can be expected only at very intre'
auent intervals, says Mr., Hunter,
with the return Of seasons favor
able to It, IN. boil weeyil will undoubt

it has in the past" he continues, ut
