COUNTY AGENT SAYS
WEEv|LS ARE HERE

Within the past week | have COW
cred considerable portion of Sum
ter county and have found evidence
Of boil weeyils in several sections.
Up to the present time the damage
they have done is very slight. But
that does not mean that they are
too late to destroy the biggest por-
tion of our cotton il we fail to put
up the right kind Of fight.
Already it is being whispered
around that the boil weeyils are
not going to do US much damage
this year. = Now listen, don't be
too sure about that unless you in
tend to put mp a better scrap than
any you have ever had yet.
Just few weevils in each field
now if let alone, means that in two
or three weeks there will be hun
,lreds where now there is only one.
So let's not content ourselves by
so thinking that we haven't any
weevils, but on the contrary get
out III the. fields and make q
thorough search for punctured
squares and when you find that
weevils are present. be sure to go
over your fields carefully every week
and destroy every square that falls
to the ground or turns yellow on
the stalk.
It is very important that we
make this fight thorough. If we
destroy all Of the punctured squares
it means that no young weevils will
hatch out. These young weevils
that hatch out during June and
july are the ones that destroy our
crops, so let's keep them down and
the old ones that survived the win
ter will do very little damage.
expect to hold several field
meetings out in the cotton patches
over the county and show the farm
ers as we'll as their tenants how to
find the squares and weevils. II
you will come to the one in your
.neighborhood you might be bene-
fitted. w. ]. B0YETT,
County Agent.
