LUDDY WHITLEY FINDS
SURE ENOUGH" WEEVILS

Mr.. Whitley sent Us specimen
OF boil weevils from his farm
Wednesday which proved the real
thing on investigation. AS soon
as we received the weevils we sent
Demonstration Agent Pitrman to
the scene to make a personal in
vestigation. Mr.. Pittman found
the weevils. though in limited
numbers, and had no trouble in
analyzing them as boil weeyils as
they carry all the ear marks. Mr..
Whitley is fully prepared to take
care OF the situation, as his barns
are full OF feed stuff and his crib
oVerHoWing with corn. He be
lieves in farm preparedness and
has been working to that end.
The Weevil will do no damage
this year and by the next season
other crops than cotton will be
planted by Mr.. Whitley.
