BOIL WEEvIL DOOMED
Hand OF Science IIns Dcnth Grip on
Insect Tint Works Havoc
I'm Cotton

WASHINGTON. July 6.-Thc boil
wecvil is doomed.
The hand OF science has at last n
death grip on the insdious insect
which has spread havoc over the vast
cotton fields Of the South.
Discovery of a practical method OF
driving out the pest was announced to-
night by the Department Of Agricul-
ture. Credit for the discovery goes to
b. II. Coad. department entomologist,
who has devoted the last decade to a
fight against this most dreaded OF all
enemies of the Southern farmer.
The weevil is to go by poison route:
henceforth when he stops his work of
punching cotton squares and bolls and
ambles forth to quench his thirst from
a dew drop or rain drop on the cotton
plant, he Is likely to encounter n
draught that will be as effective as a
knockout drop.
NO doubt as to the effectiveness of
this method OF execution is entertained
by the department experts. Although
not hard drinkers the weevils regular
~ quench their thirst by slipping the
rain or dew in drops on the leaves OF
the cotton plants.
