POISONING

So much has been said abont poisoning, and so much good work is being done on this sub Ject. that | do not feel the ne- .eessity of going into it in any great detail. Farmers and planters in Arkansas should follow implicitly the directions of B. M. Goad, United States Government Entomologist, i'll the use of calcium arsenate. If you haven't secured your ma chine for this work, and the
 material with which to do it, you are probably too late 10 do much, if any, good this year by that method. Those who iaNe provided themselves with the machines and poison shoul 1 certainly try this method out thoroughly. Remember, how ever, that your own personal supervision and a thorough un- derstanding of just what you are doing is absolutely neces- sary or else you make the cost of doing this too great. Also remember that poisoning will not take the place of cultiva- ton.
 l think Mr. Goad will tell you, however, not to use the poison unless it is necessary ,O do so. In other words, don't waste it. From general in structions sent out by Mr. Goad let me repeat here that an application of poison should be made when the Weevils have punetured from ten to fifteen per cent of the squares. And this has to be followed up by two or three applications at intervals of about every four days. It takes about five to seven pounds of calcium ar senate for each acre. If the infestation is very bad two ol. three additional applications beyond the first series may

WEATHER

The highest factor now is the weather conditions. We have had bad spring, too cold and too wet. This has been entirely unfavorble to the farmer and favorable to the weevil. Cotton got late start. While hot, dry wealth CT will be unfavorable for corn if we can have plenty of dry weather from now until the fore part of August it will mean a great deal for the cot ton farmers of the state, pro vided we exercise good judg- ment and skill in pushing the cultivation and in having enough labor to clean the crop rapidly.
The Newark journal., 1922-06-22

have to be put on. Calcium arsenate may vary in price, but probably will cost in the reighborhood of Is to 20 cents per pound laid down at your station, and hence the cost would be from one dollar to one collar and forty cents per acre for material for each appf- cation. The material, not counting the labor of applying or the cost of machinery will therefore, run somewhere from five to ten dollars per acre. You cant afford to throw 1t away. It has to be put on at night and that makes it hard work for your hands. If t saves the cotton crop, however it will pay.
 For small farmers who have not secured either the machin- cry for putting on this dust, or the calcium arsenate itself, fe= lance had best be placed on other means of preventing Weevil danger.

The Newark journal., 1922-06-22
CULTIVATION

Cultivation Is altogether the most important thing in rais- ing cotton under boil Weevil conditions. There is no use to talk now about the varieties which ought to have been planted, and probably very little use in talking about the spacing of the cotton. l hope that a large number of farm CTS read our bulletins and ar ticles on the subject, and that they planted only early ma turing varieties, and that they left the plants at ehopping time, much thicker in the rows than usual.
 The only thing to do now is to clean the crop, keep the grass out and cultivate often. A clean cultivated crop, with the soil in good condition, will make the plants grow rapidly. The faster the plants grow, the more rapidly they bloom. the greater chance vou have of getting a crop before the Weevil becomes so numerous as to destroy the entire crop. Thorough cultivation with good cultivators fitted with sweeps, or A shaped, one row culti- vators, all of which stir the soil several inches in depth, de- stroy the weeds and grass and prevent the escape of moisture are things which We must hay in order to produce a crop un- der boil weevil conditions.
 Most farmers in this state know when field is being cul- tiyated in good shape. l am anxious to emphasize the very great importance of this culti- yation this year. For the or dinary farmer under ordinarg conditions in 1922 in Arkan- sas 1t is about the only thing he can do.
 From now on until about the 10th of August don't let the grass grow; don't let the crust form after a rain; but do keep up cultivation. Cultivate as soon after a rain as you pos sibly can. By this 1 mean don't cultivate until the ground is fit, but do cultivate just as soon as it is dry enough.
 The crop is in, it is up, most if not all, of it is chopped, so the main thing is to cultivate, cultivate, cultivtae.
 CONTROL OF THE WEEVIL 
 What We do to control the weevil besides cultivation de pends entirely upon weather conditions. If the weather is hot and dry, and the cotton crop is growing vigorously, rapid cultivation is the most economical method of controll- ing the weevil.
 If we should have rains, either steadily or intermitting- ly, we may have to adopt still other means to keep down the weevil until We can make a

PICKING WEEVIES AND
 THE SQUARES

PICKING WEERIBS AND
 THE SQUARES
 There is some differ4a,s' of opinion about the value Gf try ing to destroy the Wecyil by picking them and the squares which contain the eggs and the larvae, and destroy ing them. 1 know that many big planters who have hireo labor and have kept track ,f the cost will say it doesn't pay. On the other hand there are hum dreds of examples of small farmers who have produced 9 crop by this manner, who will do it this year and who say 1t .ooes pay.
 | takes just as much discre- tion and judgment to do this kind of work as any other. 1 wouldn't advise a man to go out and attempt to pick all tie squares, under all circumstance es. AS long as the weather is hot and dry 1 wouldn't piG& them at all, but would keep up the cultivation, and would hitch chian or some other de vice onto the cultivator to drag the squares out into the mid dle of he row where the hot sun could get at them. But if it rains, or we have continued cool weather, especially in June, l would advise small farmers to do two things:
 1. Early in the season gath CT the first emerging weeyils and destroy them.
 2. When the squares begin to open and fall off, if the weather is cloudy or rainy, and it is impossible to cultivate l certainly would try picking up the squares to hold down the first brood of the weevils. Pick them in an old sack or basket and dip them in coal oil, and then throw them out on the ground and this will de stroy them.
 A big planter is going 10 have to depend pretty largely upon cultivation and poison ing if he cannot get his tenants to pick up squares ad weeVils. But the small farmer, and there are lots of them in Ark ansas, can do a great deal when the weather is rainy or cloudy, to hold down the wee vii, by picking and destroying the infested squares. Let me repeat that if the month keep hot and dry it will be the big gest factor in controlling the Weevil, and 1 would not, durin such weather, pick ups squar- es.
 1 cannot close this article without saying just word on the subject of food and feed. Conditions over which the far mer has had no control have practically limited the cotton acreage beyond the original intention of the farmers. Weather conditions from now on will practically tell the whole story as to whether We get decent yield, and a good crop, or a low yield per acre and a very small crop. do not wish to say for certain, but it appears to me that the price Of cotton ought to remain very satisfactory.
 Remember that it is the early part of the season that the picking and destruction of the weevils and squares has to be done. If you let them get a good start it will be too late.
 Stay on the job. Watch your cotton fields personally. Don't
