BOIL WEEVIL is
NOT SHOWING Up
In THE VALLEY
Reports Of Material Damage
Received from only a Few
Sections. Believe Little
Damage Will be Done

Careful surveys by cotton buyers and
government experts in all parts of the
Valley have failed to light any dangerous
infcstation of boil weevil. and the grow
ers are almost unanimous in asserting
that they expect very little damage
from the source this season. However.
in n number Of fields where wecvilS have
been found poisoning j. now under way.
and various devices for catching the
wcevils are also being employed with
varying degrees Of success In few
districts there will be some damage to
the crop. experts and growers state.
but these represent only small frac-
ton Of the Valley acreage. Practically
all the volunteer cotton is badly infested
but fortunately the acreage is small, and
while the weevil may spread from these
fields and seriously menace adjoining
fields. the damage from this source will
not be extensive.
The general cleaning up campaign
last fall had very beneficial effects" n
prominent cotton buyer stated today
when commenting upon the general con
dition Of the Valleys crop" In those
sections Of the Valley where the clean
going to receive big dividends in the
form Of increased yields. and the lack
of weevil infestaton in these districts j.
very noticeable. Volunteer cotton j. the
worst menace to the Valleys crop. and
this year there should not he an acre
of cotton that is not plowed under.
burned or some other method adopted to
clean the fields and destroy the weevilS.
Owing To the latcness Of the planting
season many Valley farmers expected
considerable damage by boil weeviiS.
but fortunately the hot weather of the
past two weeks has been anything hut
favorable for the propagation Of the
pests. Growers who two or three weeks
aao reported that there were few
weevils in their fields state that there
has been no apparent increase in the
infestation. and that unles rainy wea-
ther sets in. the damage from this source
Will be neglible.
There is nothing except IN extremely
wet spell that can now prevent the
Valley from harvesting the greatest per-
acre production ever recorded in South
Texas" Harlingen grower said.
From brownsville to Mission every field
indicates n bumper yield. yield such
as the Valley has never before expcr-
fenced. and will mean the greatest pros
perity the Valley has ever had"

Favorable REPORT ON
RECLAMATION MEASURE
GIVEN BY. COMMITTED

IL is understood that the amendments
are proposed to meet Representative
Montgomery objections, the nature Of
reports received by the Herald from
Austin.
The announcement yesterday that
Willacy county had been eliminated
from the proposed district has aroused
considerable comment in all three
counties interested. a telegram receiv-
ed at McAllen this morning from Rep.
rescntativc Lewis, explaining this fea-
ture stated that the representative of
that county refused to give his consent
% the district plan as outlined in the
bill.
A rumor was circultcd this morning
to the effect that the Valley Engin-
eers had endorsed the plan OF elimi-
mating Willacy county, but the presi-
dent Of that organization this morning
stated that no resolution Of that char
actcr had ever been passed BY the en-
rineers, who at their last meeting did
pass resolution calling upon the leg
islativc representatives to attempt to
secure for Cameron and Willacy coun-
ties remittance Of state taxes similar
to that secured By Hidalgo county. the
counties to be credited with the amount
Of taxes rcmittcd the same as IL they
were part Of the bond issue for the
reclamation district.
Proponents of the reclamation dis
trict plan state that in view Of the
present status Of the bill prompt work
will be necessary to iron out the diff
ferenccs in order that favorable ac-
tion may be secured at this session
and that there be no unnecessary delay
and il is understood that an effort will
be made tomorrow to hold a meeting
for that purpose.
