It has been the custom Of the
Weather Bureau, in its weekly re-
ports on crop conditions, to indicate
that the boll-weeyil is extremely
sensitive to changes of tempera-
ture and that, In a spell Of cold
weather, the little marauder is
not likely to do such havoc with
the cotton in the fields as he does
when the sun is warm.
The Bureau of Entomology has
discovered, however, that it alone
under the law liz vested with the
authority to determine what eff
feet the boll-weevil has on the.
cotton crop and the extent Of the
damage for which it is responsible.
The entomologists held. therefore,
that the Weather Bureau was ex-
ceeding its authority and duplicat-
ing work done by their bureau
when 1t indicated that cotton yield
prospects were brighter In a given
week because q change In weather
conditions slowed UP the depreda-
tions Of the boll.weevil.
