the alfalfa has been eaten down close
of the lots should be proportional to
the producing power of the field and
the number of animals to be pastured,
so that each lot may be grazed about
once in two weeks. Pasturing should
be continued until most of the weevil
eggs have been laid, which, in prac-
tice, means little later than the usual
cutting time of the first crop. This
method has the additional advantage
of providing an economical method OF
fattening live stock. Combined with
the proper feed Of grain, alfalfa pas
ture is excellent for putting on weight
and it is said that many farms would
probably be more profitable If their
management centered about the pas
turing of stock on alfalfa with the
growing of enough other crops to pro-
vide grain and forage throughout the
year.
If the weevils are not killed early In
the year they may be destroyed after
the first crop has been removed by get
ting rid of all the vegetation in the
field crushing the clods, and filling the
cracks so as to expose the entire sur
face to the sun. This Is best done by
covering the field with a dust mulch,
the dust being an additional means Of
killing weevils. Success obviously de-
ponds upon doing the work when the
ground is dry and the weather warm
and bright.
The second crop may also be protect
ed by spraying the stubble. Spraying
may also be resOrted to in the spring.
From so to 100 gallons per acre of a
mixture of arsenite Of zinc and water
in the proportion Of ounces Of pow
der to 100 gallons are used for this
purpose. The apparatus best suited
for alfalfa spraying is described in
detail in the bulletin already men
toned. Still another recommendation
made in this bulletin is the stimula-
ton of the growth Of the alfalfa by
cultivating the field in the spring.
This does not destroy the weevils but
it serves to produce a larger and ear
lier yield when their attacks make
early cutting necessary.
Up to the present. however, more
| farmers are concerned with prevent
ing the alfalfa weevil reaching their
fields than they are with controlling it
| in them. No one knows exactly how
the weevils spread, but certain facts
in regard to this matter have been
ascertained. 1t Is known, for exam
pie, that the insects are often found
in green alfalfa fresh from the field
and in secOnd-crop hay and among po-
tatoes which have been In contact
with it. They are found also in cured
alfalfa hay. especially that Of the Sec
ond cutting. Potatoes often are hauled
in cars upon a bedding of green al
falfa hay and there is danger that
the weevil may be transported in this
way. On the other hand, however,
there is no evidence to show that the
weevil spreads more rapidly along rail-
roads than elsewhere.

The alfalfa weevil, which, since its
States in 1904. has been confined to
alfalfa fields in the great basin of the
West, has now spread beyond the
limits of this natural division and is
advancing so steadily, in spite of eff
forts made to combat its movement,
that entOmOlOgists of the United States
department of agriculture fear that
sooner or later every section of the
country will be invaded by the pest.
The spread of the weevil outside the
great basin has been north into por-
tons of Idaho lying in the Snake river
drainage system and south into por-
tons of Utah lying southwest of the
continental divide. Though entOmolO-
gists of the department look on the
spread of the weevil across the CONT
mental divide as denoting the passing
of landmark rather than as the sur
mounting of a barrier, they point out
that the. pest is, nevertheless, many
miles nearer to important alfalfa-grow-
ing districts which have hitherto felt
safe from attacks by the insect.
Description of Weevil.
A description of the alfalfa weevil
and method of combating its ravages
are contained in a new publication of

culture, Farmers Bulletin TAI. The
