The weevil fight is simple and mex
pensiye. Most OF the cotton is too large
now to pick the adult weevil from the
stalks. The fight from now on must be
concentrated on the punctured squares.
To be successful, this must be commenced
when the cotton begins TO square. Every
field that has weevil should be gone over
carefully once a week, and every punct-
ured square picked up and burned. Heav-
liz infested spots should be marked and
picked over twice week. The whole
fight hinges on this point-to keep the
short lived over wiDtered weevil from
raising brood. Try to keep every punct-
ured square from Matching young Vice.
VII. Farmers who have failed have in
yarisbly started the fight too late. This
method OF fighting the weevil has been
proved successful beyond the shadow of
doubt by thousands of the best farmers
IN the State.

squares are punctured, it is fast and in
expensive work as there are few squares
to pick up. The labor that hoes the crop
can keep the squares picked up if this is
done from the start.
The punctured squares should be kept
picked up for five or six weeks longer
according to conditions. In rainy spells,
il is absolutely essential to continue care
fol picking up of squares.

and growing this year to make 800, 900
