A new enemy to the cotton pro-
ducers of Georgia is at hand and we
must prepare to meet him. Those who
believe hH will not come are mistaken
since he has marched steadily across
the country from Texas to within six
ty miles of the western border of the
state. The fight against the boil wee
vii which Georgia farmers must wage
will of necessity be made with meth
DDS found most efficient in those
states where the enemy is being
fought
1t behooves our farmers to be think
ing along these lines. 1t is essential
that they know the truth. To be mis-
led by false reports or misrepresenta-
tons would be suicidal. In fighting
the boil weevil, the farmer must instl-
tute modern practices. First, he must
pillow and cultivate his soil and pre-
pare his seed bed with greater care
and skill than he has ever done be-
fore. Second, he must understand as
completely as possible the needs OF
his soil in the way of supplemental
plant food, so as to stimulate rapid
and uniform growth of the crop and
it's maturity at the earliest possible
date. Third, he must select and grow
early maturing varieties of cotton
which are as strongly resistant to dis.
ease as possible. Fourth, he must ro
tate his crops-this is absolutely as
sential. Fifth, he should destroy by

It will be noted here that the re-
suits of 1910 are very much more
marked than they are in 1913. The
annlication of lime was also tested at
five different points in north Georgia
and six different points in south Geor-
gia the past year with the average
results of an increase of 80 bushels
corn per acre in north Georgia and
"a bushels in south Georgia. In this
case the lime was used at the rate OF
1900 pounds of burned lime in north
Georgia and 1000 pounds burned lime

the first spares which fall should ha

The successful fight against the
boil weevil depends absolutely on the.
adoption of the most up-to-date meth
DDS of farming. The farmers OF
Southwest Georgia should immediate
ly emphasize the production Of live
stock, the growth of winter cereals
and legumes such as the COW pea, vel
vet bean and the peanut. Some of
them are doing this and their exam
pie should be emulated by others.
Those who are following the meth
DDS outlined above and who will Inn
mediately put into practice the sug-
gestions made, will be as well pre-
pared as possible, to meet the advent
of the weevil These are the only
methods which have been found prac-
teal in boil weevil territory. 1t is
useless for farmers to look to other
than educational institutions and to
the service which the extension dem
onstration work of the State College
of Agriculture and the U. 5. Depart
ment of Agriculture, so well organ
lied in this state, can bring to their
aid in successfully overcoming the
ravages of the weevil.
