THE PINK BOIL WORM.

This pest introduced into Texas
several years ago where 1t was held
at bay by the combined efforts OF the
Federal Horticultural Board and the
Texas authorities. has assumed q
threatening attitude. This post ex-
tended it's areas in Texas; it then goI
away ara established itself in the
three southwestern counties in Louis
lana; and from these points ship
ments OF cotton were made to vari-
Gus and sundry points before ats
presence was discovered.
Both Texas and Louisiana have in
creased their machinery for dealing
with the situation. bat in the mean
time great precautions are necessary
to prevent the spread Of the pest to
other sections OF the cotton states
Drastic quarantine measures have
been adopted or are contemplated by
the various cotton states, and those
are to be In force at least until tho
limits OF distribution of the pest are
again determined. This Is one Of the
worst insect posts OF cotton. and
wherever it appears in boil wsevil in
tested territory, ths damage may be
expected to increase not less than 36
per cent.

Field And Garden BUGS
Notes from the Entomolegist
On Insect Pests.

Clemson College, April 19-The
bon weerH has spread over the great
or portion Of South Carolina. In sew
eral Of the coastal counties II ia enter
Ing it's third year Of infestation. In
case OF wet season severe damage
may be expected in Beaufort. Jasper
Hampton, Ahendale, Barnwell, Collie
ton and Charleston counties. Con-
siderable damage may also occur in
the other coastal sections.
The fundamental procedure in boil
weevil control Is intelligent diversif-
cation resulting in greatly improved
soil fertility. soil conditions. An
early crop Of cotton is very necessary
in weevil years. Minor operations
are profitable under favorable condi-
tions, such as handpicking OF fallen
squares and collecting OF pupctured
squares and bolls. These may be
advantageously practiced where Ia.
Dor is cheap and available, for ex-
ample, on plantations operated by
families with a number of children
that can be employed.
The latest development in weevil
control is poisoning, but this method
Is yet in the experimental stages. The
work so far done has been on Mis-
sissippi Delta plantations and the re-
suits secured are most promising.
While 1t is not expected that this
method will ever eradicate the pest,
yet viewing the results 80 far secured
together with tho history Of weevil
poisoning, the prospects are very
promising that this method is to de-
velop into an important factor in boil
weevfl control. A great many details
must yet be worked out experiment
tally. There will yet be continued
improvements in the dustipg ma
chimes and in tho manufacture OF
calcium arsenate, which appears to
be one Of the most difficult insect.
oides to manufacture. Furthermore.
the various details that present them
selves on the different plantations
outside Of the Mississippi Delta will
be worked out so that a definite and
logical system Of poisoning can bs
recommended. Under any conditions.
poisoning in this state in 1920 should
only be undertaken where weevtl
damage is expected to be severe: it
should be undertaken on a small
scale only, and when once begun It
should be repeated as often az neces-
sery IN thorough manner or tho
results are likely to be unsatisfactory
Experimental work will be conducted
in the coastal counties Of this state
whore the weevA Is expected to be
most injurious. 4 pumber OF plant
ers will no doubt conduct poisoning
operations with machines and mate
rails probably available. No one
should undertake busting without re-

tion about dusting machines and the
adoption OF proper safeguards In pur-

The entire length OF the Hudson

MUST READ PSALMS
Used in Reading Test for Aliens
at Ellis Island.
Required to Read From 80 to 20
Words in Any Language
He Desires

New York.-Uncle Sam will soon
be conducting great classes in reading
the Psalms almost at the feet of the
Statue Of Liberty. The pre-war prac-
tice of examining all immigrants who
come by steerage at Ellis island has
been restored.
More than 1000 men and women
will read from the Psalms there daily,
and Miss Liberty, who stands a stones
throw from the island slip, could hear
If she were incarnate.
Reading from the Psalms is the lit
eracy test for admission to this country,
which went into effect in May, 1917,
and is now receiving its first real trial
because immigration during the war
was small The law provides that an
immigrant, with a few exceptions,
must be able to read from thirty to
forty words in any language he or she
desires. The department of labor de-
vised the Psalm as the fairest for all.
immigration inspectors are equipped
with cards in all languages, with
verses from the Psalms printed on
them. All types of script are repre-
sented-German, Arabic, Hebrew, jap
anese, Russian, and so on-except
Chinese, for that nationality is not
permitted to immigrate.
Lest any alien learn, parrot-like the
verse of the Psalm that a friend in
this country had to read, the inspec-
tors have at least 40 different verses
in each language, one verse to card.
Primary examination at the island
will require many more employees.
immigration authorities have estimat-
ed it will take $1,OOOO00 more annual
" to increase the force to a proper
size as well as to raise salaries of
present employees so that skilled
workers will not leave the service for
private employment.
