the stock has become broken and be

be done early, and the philanthropic
motive is consideration of the clerks
in the stores.-Times-Un Union.
The same appeal is made for the
people of Ocala to do their Christmas
shopping early, and not wait until
Christmas eve to begin to think about
what to buy for Christmas. The mer-
chants are already beginning to get
their Christmas goods in, and it is
just as easy to shop early as late.

injury to cotton has been unusually

injury to cotton has been unusually
severe. The insect is easily recog-
nized by its position on the plant
and by being of a blush color, less
than l-32 of an inch in length. 1t
is somewhat similar to the ordinary
cotton leaf louise, which causes the
cotton leaves to curl up during cool,
moist weather. The injury is occa-
stoned by the small insects sucking
the juice from the young tap roots
OF the cotton, causing them to die.
An infested plant is easily recogniz-
ed by the stunted and wilted appear
ance of the foliage. In their activi-
ty, the root lice are dependent upon
the ants as a means of travelling

THE COTTON ROOT LOUISE.
Preventives Suggested In Clem'
son College Bulletin 122.


For several years past this insect
has been recognizedss more or less
serious pest to young cotton plants.
The Insects known II occur through
out South Carolina, but seems to as
sumo the role of an important insect
pest to cotton only in the coast and
near coast counties of the State. In
these counties, the injury seems to
be increasing with each succeeding
year. The present season has been
very favorable for the root louise de-
,yelopment and, consequently, the
The county record. [volume] (Kingstree, S.C.) 1885-1975, 1913-07-10

from one plant to another and. con-
sequently the farmer must look upon
the ants as enemies instead of friends.
In the spring, as soon as the ants
are noticed excavating about the
young cotton plants, begin system
of shallow cultivation as rapidly as
possible. The infested cotton should
be cultivated at least once week
during dry weather and as soon as
the soil will permit after every rain.
In this way the ants are thoroughly
disorganized and must turn their at
tention to organization instead of
nursing the cotton root lice-hence
their progress is greatly retarded.
This process should be kept up until
The county record. [volume] (Kingstree, S.C.) 1885-1975, 1913-07-10

the cotton is thoroughly established
in the soil and in a thrifty, growing
condition.
By far the most satisfactory means
of controlling the cotton root louise
yet found is by following carefully
planned system of rotation of at least
three years duration. This system
should be planned in such way as
to prevent cotton from following
either cotton or corn, but crop of
small grain and cowpea hay should
precede a crop of cotton on badly
infested lands. The following three
year rotation system has been used
with marked success on the farm of
Judge C A Woods at Marion: Corn
The county record. [volume] (Kingstree, S.C.) 1885-1975, 1913-07-10

followed by oats and cowpea hay,
followed by cotton the third year.
This system has been followed on an
originally badly infested field for the
past five years and as a result the
root louse injury has been reduced
to practically nothing.
1t is of immense value to have a
winter cover crop upon the infested
land at all times as it prevents the
winter food plants of the cotton root
louse from growing upon the land.
This naturally reduces the infesta-
ton for the following spring.
So far, repellents against this in
sect have been of little value as re-
medal measures.
