FARMS ARE NOW
FOR BUSTING MACHINES

YAZOO CITY, Miss. July rs. (Spl)-
Two big farms in the delta, say repre-
sentatives of the State A. and M. col
lege, have displayed faith enough IN
the new method Of defeating the boil
weeyfl by busting the cotton ant Win
.spectively in dusting machines and
equipment. The same authority on
state agricultural matters regrets that
there are only five factories In the
United States equipped to manufac-
ture busting machines and that the en-
tire output of these factories has been
sold for months In advance,
At the same time 1t Is not deemed ex-
pedient blythe stare authority for the
small planter to invest heavily in the
machines which promise SO much until
they have had the advantage OF the
thorough test they are likely to get this
year. This year the experiments OF
busting to kill the boil weevil are being
carried on all through the cotton belt
with plenty of opportunity a little ear
Her in the season, If not at this time,
to demonstrate effectiveness. During
the rainy season this spring and early
summer the cotton planter, especially
in the delta section of Mississippi, real
lied again his helplessness to cope with
the situation.
The theory on which the busting ma
| chimes are built is the fact, determined
through long years of study of the life
/, habits Of the pest, that the weevil de-
mands water quite frequently. The
, .aly manner in which this water may
pc mad at frequent and regular inter
| vais is for the weevil to drink the dew
that collects on the leaves of the plant.
1t is believed that If a chemical sub
stance is placed On the plant that will
remain, there Ter some time and that
will constitute a deadly poison when
moistened by the dew, the weevil will
meet his fate as he quenches his morn
ing thirst.
