THE BOIL WEEVIL
AND CREDIT
J. Phil Campbell, Director Extension
Division College of Agriculture.

Much of the cotton that is grown
in Georgia requires an advance of
credit from the banker. or the mer-
chant When the boil weevil has made
Nself felt there will be hesitancy
about advancing credit on the crop,
In fact there may be an absolute with
iraNal OF credit which would spell
disaster.
Il will be a mistake 10 cease growing
eotton, even in the presence of the boil
weoyil Therefore, il will be mis-
take TO cease extending credit on cot
ton crops. Bankers and merchants
have Il within their power 10 meet the
boil weevil situation safely and sanely,
prevent panic and gradually direct
farming into a more profitable line
than ever could nave been under the
one crop system,
The deprodations of the weevil win
increase gradually. Except under most
unusual circumstances will il do it
greatest damage within the first year
or two after its appearance. Each
rear 1t will take greater toll unless prop
az methods are used to combat it. It
Nould, therefore, seem n wise policy
Cor tho banker and the merchant to
gradually reduce the amount of credit
an cotton, Ii they are 20 encourage
the largest development Of the agri-
cultural possibilities OF the region they
serve. as we'll as develop their own
business, they will at the same time
encourage the dNerSihcation OF crops
and the gradual introduction of live
stock 70 consume the products. There
fore. credit must be extended TO these
crops, as il is being gradually reduced
oR cotton
IL has been estimated that the cut
IN the yield of cotton the first year of
the invasion of the weevil is from 10
to 80 per cent, the second year from
- TO Al per cent and the third from
30 80 60 per cent. depending upon what
measures have been taken to hold the
weeyii in check Under some such
schedule, a credit basis may be estah-
liShed on cotton.
