Positive Proof that the
Partridge Eats Boil Weevils

There is no longer any question or
shadow Of doubt bat that partridge s
feed on boil weegil,, aud if these
birds are left unmolested and allowed
70 increase, that they will eventually
rid the country Of these pests, or any
way greatly reduce The number.
That patridges feed on The cotton
boil aeeyil was made plain last Thur
dag to the Editor 81 the Jones Cnun-
~ News, Mr. Il D Mcswain, farm
Ter OF this county who lives about two
miles southwest 81 Ellisyille, came
into our office bringing with him a
partridge just shot in bis cotton patch.
Mr. McSwain stated that two we're
killed from a flock feeding among his
cotton, As he had read IN our paper
about these birds eating boil weevils,
and wanted to satisfy himself as to
the truth Of the statement. he dis
secied the crop OF one Of the dead
birds, and says IL was stuffed full Of
boil weevils He would not give the
number, lest his word by be disputed.
But he brought into Eur Office the
other partridge and asked that we
open its crop and investigate for our
self. We secured sheet OF white
paper, and picking the feathers ( ON
around the crop, opened 1t with a
knife We found IT just as Mr. Nc
Swain asserted. We counted forty
seven grown weevils in 1t that the bird
had eaten, and number of them
were alive, and began TO crawl
around. We pasted these insects on
sheet OF paper and tackled 1t upon
our office bulletin board, with state
ment OF facts. Several parties were
present when the crop OF that partridge
was cut open and saw the weevils
taken from it.
This should convince every farmer
of the Importance of protecting par
tlidges. Mr.. McSwain says he con-
sders every partridges on his place
as worth $40 as an exterminator of
boil weevils. and will see that they
are protected and allowed to increase.
He says that any farmer who will not
protect partridges after this discovery

The Government has introduced
the Guatemala as a destroyer OF
the cotton boil weevil, but it proved
no good But there is now no doubt
or question about partridge, feeding
on these pests and they are the best
friends the farmers have in weevil
infested sections. Here birds are
destroying AZ weevils shortly after
starting to feed in the morning, and
the good work will be kept up all
day. 1t is impossible To estimate the
number of weevils large covy of
partridges will destroy in a season.
