CULTIVATE CROP
TO BEAT WEEV|L
Director OF Extension Urges Growers
TO Work Ground Thoroughly;
Says WeeviI Can Not Live In
Dust Mulch.

saltwater. Okla, July 14.--"Culti
vate your cotton continually and
thoroughly to beat the Doll weevil,
says w. A. Conner, director of exten
sion. Oklahoma A. & NJ. college
saltwater.
Possible damage from boil weevil
TO the cotton crop depends very
largely on climatic conditions and
methods used by the farmer in cult
waiting the crop.
Cotton growers in communities
where the boil weevil has been active
for a number of years have found
one of the most effective methods of
control is frequent and thorough cul-
tivation.
"The temperature of the surface
of the ground is usually several de-
grees higher than that of the air dur
ing July and August. The boil weevil
in the adult and immature form can
not live in the high temperature
found in dust mulch at this season.
"One Of the important things in
boil weevil control Is to keep the
surface Of the soil we'll mulched and
free from grass and weeds so that
the summer temperature may be
taken advantage Of in the destruction
of the pest. Infested squares that
hang on the cotton plant or that fall
on the ground in damp shaded places
will mature weevil. Cultivation not
only keeps the plant in q healthy
and vigorous condition, but 1t also
agitates the plant causing many in
fected squares to fall on the hot dry
ground where immature weevil are
killed.
MANY farmers tie a gunny sack
or something similar on the culti-
yator so it will drag over the cotton
plants and shake off infested |
squares. The cuItivator then mixes
the squares in the hot dust. Others
are also using tin pans in front of
the plows and between the rows to
Catch weevil knocked off the plants.
Such work should be kept up till
the cotton begins to open"
