SAYS BOIL WEEVIL MAKING
ALMOST A CLEAN SWEEP
MIR. Dekle Reports That Less Than
Thousand Bales VIII Be Made
in Lowndes County.

Many Terrell county farmers are
blue over the damage being done to
their cotton crops by the boil weevil,
but it is nothing as compared with
the situation in Lowndes county as
reported by Mr.. E. f. Dekle, who was
here from Valdosta Monday.
He stated that the entire cotton
crop in Lowndes county this year will
not exceed 1000 bales, and the prob
ability is that $50 bales will cover it.
In 1916 Lowndes county grew 5000
bales of cotton, and last year this
was reduced to 4,500 bales by the
Weevils.
