BOIL WEEyIL NUMEROUS
lBy .. r. LIoYd and 6. W. Watson

(By T.. r. Lloyd and G. W. Watson,
Farm Development Bureau)
During the past few days the boil
weevil has appeared on cotton in
greater numbers than ever before at
this season of the year. Now that
we have them, the question naturally
arises: what shall we do to prevent
serious damage?
We must make a full cotton crop
this year if possible and the price
promises to be high.
Where the farmer has a small cot
ton crop and children available to
pick the weevil now and later to pick
the punctured squares, it will UNI
doubtedly pay. This method is not as
difficult as it would seem. inasmuch
as the weevil is not general through
out the field at this time of the year.
But it is only found in sertain spots
over the field and more likely to be
discovered on cotton near the fence
rows, ditch banks, cotton houses.
stumps and near the woodland.
If local places in the cotton field
are thoroughly gone over at least
twice each week during June and July
and cultivation kept up, the infesta-
ton may be held down to minimum,
The punctured SQUARES always turn
yellow about the third or fourth day
and the majority Of them fall to the
ground. But in any event these can

they acted we'll their parts, showing
that Mrs. C. L. Mccain and Miss
Clara Fleming, who, with the other
teachers. had taken great pains in
training the children. There was a
large crowd of people present, among
whom were many visitors. The exer-
cises of the children was followed by
an address by Mr.. Roy Dale Strong,
