POISON in FIELD
Test Made Monday at Cor

Successful. Large Acreage
is busted With Poison

CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas, July TO-
Three hundred pounds of Paris green
was distributed over the $50 acres Of
cotton owned by o. O. Wright. with
the poison being distributed by Clifford
kcnnard. commercial aviator from his
plane. This l. the first time this meth
of distributing poison in cotton field
has been used in Nueces county.
With leaf worm threatening all Sec
tions Of the countys cotton crop, and
the field being too wet 10 permit the
paris green being distributed BY ma
chine Mr.. Wright conceived the idea,
following the witnessing of motion
picture film here Saturday. of having
the poison distributed over his field
by airplane.
Mr.. kcnnard was accompanied by
Webb Rhodes in his work Of sprinklinE
Mr.. Nright's cotton acreage, Mr. Ken
nard plotting the machine while Mr..
Rhodes sprinkled the poison. About
three hours time was necessary in the
work. il was said yesterday. where IL
one of the larger machines had been
used il would have taken three days
time 10 distribute the poison by ma
chine.
when the experiment was first at
tempted yesterday morning, an outfit
with tunnels and hose was rigged on
the plane, hut IL was found this could
not work without an agitator. The idea
then was conceived Of cutting hole
about three inches in diameter in the
cans Of paris green. and the poison was
poured out Of this hole by Rhodes.
while the propeller did the distributing
of the poison over the field. The plane
was flown no an altitude cf about 30

having him perform the same duty for
them over their fields. Mr.. Kennard
will have an outfit made Immediately 10

poison.
Whether this method OF distributing
the poison by plane will prove to be
more effective than distribution by
