BOIL WEEVTL MEETING IN HALIFAX s
is WELL ATTENDED BY FARMERS
Agricultural Experts Deliver Interesting Halifax
County Farmers How to Under Weevi
Conditions. .
PROPER CULTIVATION MOST IMPORTANT

Halifax on Friday was well at
tended and very profitable
meeting for those present. Four
speakers talked on every angle
Of growing cotton under boil
weevil conditions. Mr.. Garren Of
the State College was the first
speaker. He emphasized the
necessity of good cultural
methods, stating that good pre-
paration and good careful
thorough cultivation were
of more Importance now than
ever before. He also particularly
stressed the value Of good seed,
showing that while good seed
only added dolly bore expense
per acre very OFF, it increased
the yield of lint cotton as much
as so to rs pounds per acre. and
sometimes as much as hundred
pounds. He recommended Wan
namaker's Cleveland Big Boil
or MEXICAN Big Boil as best
suited to our county.
The next speaker was Mr.. C.
A. Whittle of the Soil Improve
ment Committee, Southern Fer
tilizer Association. Mr.. Whittle
spoke particuI'Iy upon fertiliz-
ing cotton under weevil condi-
tions. He recommended liberal
use of high grade fertilizer, and
stressed that it was cheaper to
use high grade goods in order to
eliminate freight, hauling, and
distributing the extra weight in
low grade fertilizers. For clay
soils he suggested the use of 10
to IL per cent of phosphoric
acid, 3 to a per cent nitrogen,
and 2 to 3 per cent potash, and
for sandy lands 8 to 10 per cent
phosphoric acid, 8 to 5 per cent
nitrogen and 3 to per cent pot
ash. Mr.. Whittle advised the use
.of all ammonia under the cotton
at planting time or then applied
as top dressing not later than
at chopping time, with no late
applications. He also suggested
the use of nitrate of soda or
some other quickly available
source of ammonia to supply at
least one half to two thirds of
the total ammonia.
DR.. j. 0. Taylor followed Mr..
Whittle and talked on the life
history and habits of the Wee
vii. DR.. Taylor gave the farmers
many secrets of the weevil and
taught them many things about
the habits, likes and dislikes of
the weevil dealing particularly
with his life in the winter
quarters.
Mr.. Mabee Of the N. c.. Ex-
pertinent Station spoke on
poisoning as means of direct
control. He advised farmers to
stick to the Government method
of using dry calcium arsenate
applied as a dust with proper
guns, following directions of the
Department closely. Farmers
were warned not to purchase
patent remedies and traps
of various kinds as things were
unsatisfactory. Mr.. Mabee stated
that our farmers must realize
that they have a fight and hard
fight to make cotton with the
weevil present, but that it could
be done and could be done very
profitably. After the meeting
demonstration of busting was
given with one of the popular
makes three row busting ma
lchinc in the rear of the Court
! House.
