the Delto Laboratory, TaIlulah, La,
for free analysis to make sure that
it is satisfactory.
Use only busting machinery es-

ing.
Poison only when the air is calm
and the plants are moist. Practically
this means making only night appli-
cations.
Use about five to seven pounds Of
calcium arsenate per acre for each
application.
Start poisoning when the weevils
have punctured from 10 to Is per
cent. Of the squares.
Keep your cotton thoroughly busted
until the weevils are under control
This usually means about three ap-
plicatipns at the rate of one every
four days.
Then stop poisoning until the
weevils again become abundant.
If the weevils become abundant
early enough to iniure your young
bolls, make one or two more appliea-
lions late in the season.
If you have a heavy rain within "a
hours after dusting repeat this APP

Do not expect to eradicate the

them sufficiently to permit full

CONTROL BY POISONING
WITH CALCIUM ARsENATE


(Bv E. R. Lloyd and c. w. Watson )
The first question which occurs to
the cotton farmer contemplating
poisoning is whether it will pay to do
so. From the following any cotton
grower should be able to determine
the question for himself:
1t will pay to poison
If the weevils are really iniuring
your crop seriously.
II your land is sufficiently fertile
TO yield at least one-half bale per
acre with weevil injury eliminated.
II your farming organization IS
such that you feel assured that the
poison applications will be made in
the right manner.
II you are willing to spend the full
amount necessary to provide an ade-
quate supply of busting machinery
and poison.
You should not poison if the cost
Of the Calcium arsenate, the cost of
the labor to apply it and the de-
probation on the busting machines
Will total more per acre than current
value of 100 pounds Of seed cotton.
Hand guns should be figured as de-
preciating 100 per cent. in a season
and the larger machines about Is
per cent. q
The following condensed rules have
been prepared for the guidance of
those planning to poison:
Use only pure calcium arsenate in
the form of a drN powder. Apply
this only in the dust form.
Purchase this to conform to the
following specifications: Not less
than 40 per cent. total arsenate pen
