DESTROY THE COTTON STALK
An Effective Method of Boil WSevII
Control.

Experiments have proved that one
Of the most effective means Of boil
weeril control is the early destruction
Of the green cotton stalks. This early
destruction Of the growing stalks &C
compHshes three things:
(1) Destruction of all immature
weevils in bolls and squares.
(2) Destruction of an food sup.
plies for adult weevil, compelling all
these weevil to do without food until
cold weather ferces them into hiberna-
tion. This makes the adult weevil e.
into winter quarters weak from star.
vstion and in bad condition to With
stand the cold.
81 Destruction Of all breeding
places. This early stalk destruction
duplicates In large measure the eff
fects Of freezing temperatures.
In order to make cotton q profita-
BILE crop, the best cultural methods
must be adopted and all means CT
controlling weevil damage must be
used faithfully and persistently.
Early destruction of the green and
growing stalks is the frst step.
Where the farmers have the neces-
sary tools. the best way to handle the
stalks Is to chop tsaem up hne with
stalk cutter or ossc harrow. Then
plow under as deep ss possible, thor
oughly covering all Of the chopped
stalks II possible, plant some win
ter cover crop on the land, some Of
the clovers being the best for this
purpose.
The next best method is to cut the
stalks, and pile and burn them as soon
as the leaves, stems and squares will
make quick blaze. Don't wait un-
til all the stalk is dry, or the weevH
will all have hatched and most Of the
labor Will be IN vain.
The effort Of each individual farmer
in destroying his stalks will be pro-
ductive OF some good. Community CO..
operative effort, however. is what iS
reoIired to meet this situation In the
best possiS'a way. II every commun-
ity in the cotton section Of the state
would DESTROY AL cotton stalks by No
vurnher / ~ +ha latest, It would be
