wEEvIL POISONING AGAIN

Clemson College, Apr. 24.-Every
day numerous inquiris are received
at Clemson College in regard to one
or other of the numerous devices for
attaching to plows for applying liquid
poison, for brushing the cotton to
knock the weevil from the plants,
for attracting weevils to light, ETC.,
etc. The man with new dvices for
boil weevil control has been ever
present in the wake of the weevil
during the last twenty years. Many
of these devices represent patriotic
and conscientious effort, while in
some cases the motive is purely self
fish.
In many cases at lcs sst the man
who gets up the device has no know
ledge whatever of the history of boil
weevil control and is not aware that
his plans have been tried and tested
by Federal and State experts and rep
resentative farmers for number
of years and found unsatisfactory.
He fails to realize that the people
of other states are just as int lii
gent and clever as he is and that
many Of his ideas have been thrash
ed to frazzle long before they oc-
CURED to him.
| In making recommendations or
statements regarding such matters
we are guided by the number of
! pounds of seed cotton that any given
device has been able to add profit
ably to the cotton crop; we recognize
only the results of carefully conduct
ed tests and we can not base our
recommendations on guess work,
says Prof. A.. F. Conradi, Entomolo-
gist; and in answer to the numerous
inquiries we repeat that wherever one
has decided to poison we recommend
the use of calcium arsenate as a dust.
with properly constructed machines,
according to proper schedule.
This recommendation is based on
the fact that we have no evidence
where profitable results were secured
in carefully conducted tests by other
than the busting method. We do saw
that where one dusts he will secure
profitable results, because not by any
means did all farmers that busted Sc
cure profitable results in 1921, but
in carefully conducted tests by ex-
perts under the supervision of
Federal and State officials, wherever
profit was secured it was secured by
the busting method.
We have prepared an office letter
entitled Poisoning. in 1922" to ac-
company Circular 162 of the Federal
Government and these are available
for distribution by the Extension Ser
vice, Clemson College, S. C.

TRAPS TO CATCH THE FARMER
They Are More Dangerous Than The
Traps to Catch The Boil Weexil

mot only the consultations but the
other 1000 billion start all point to
exceeding prevalence of traps to
catch the farmer in the many awk-
ward moves which he will necessarily
make in his first conflict with the
boil weevil. Lacking fixed rules to
guide him against these pitfalls he
will prove an easy prey to the wiles
of the trained diplomat. When Philo
Gubb would become a detective he
got himself rule book which direct
ed him under all conditions. When
he scented danger he hid himself b.
hind a tree and consultcG this book
Every farmer needs to get him a

together the farmers who have got

able to do this, by no means detain

HOTTEST PLACE ON EARTH
is DEATH VALLEY, CALF.

Ten years of records obtained at
the United States Weather Bureau
substation at Greenland ranch in
Death Valley, Calf. indicate that this
is the hottest region in the United
States and probably on earth. The av-
erage of extreme maximum tempera-
ture reported to the United States De-
partment of Agriculture since 1911
has been 125 degrees F. At Greenland
ranch temperatures of 100 degrees F.
or higher occur almost daily during
June, July and August. The hottest
month on record is July, 1917, when
the mean temperature was LOT. de-
grees F. But the temperature of 1874
degrees observed on July 10, 1918,
is believed by meteorologists to be the
highest natural-air temperature ever
recorded with standard tested ther-
mometer exposed in the shade under
approved conditions.
Death Valley is from to miles
wide and about 100 miles long, lying

the deepest depression in the United
States. some Estimates placing its
lowest point at 337 feet below sea
level. Greenland ranch is 178 feet
below sea level. White people find the
midsummer heat intolerable, and even
the Indians go up to the Panamint
Range during July and August.
The normal annual precipitation in
Death Valley is less than inches.
Successful agriculture can not be
maintained on less than Is or 20
inches of annual precipitation with
out the aid of irrigation. Agroup
of springs serve as the source of irri-
gation-water supply for Greenland
ranch. The water has a temperature
of about 100 degrees F. and is only
sufficient to irrigate 70 acres. Four
crops of alfalfa are gathered each
year. The principal product of the
ranch is dressed meat, but expert
ments are being made in raising poul-
try and in growing vegetables, dates,
citrus and deciduous fruits.
