MAY SHAVE $75,000,000 ISSUE TO
$10,000,00 THIS YEAR
e |
Atlanta, Ga., June 23,‘—-Information‘
comes from a thoroughly reliable
source that the propoonents of the
$75,000,000 State bond issue for road
purposes will not press that measure
for passage in the Legislature this
year, but now have under serious con
templation shaving their proposition
to a bond issue of $10,000,000 provid
ed certain necessary support can be
induced for the smaller issue.
For some days it has been known
there was a great deal of comcern in
the road bond campaign headquarters
over the fact that both candidates
for Governor are on the other side of
the fence on the pgoposition of Gov
ernor Hardwick who some ago took
the, position that he would have no
Qeclaration to make on the merits
of the proposal, because of the fact
that he is thoroughly convinced this
would be entirely an inopportune time
to submit any proposal to issue bonds
to the people of the State; that the
State needs to get at least onc
square meal ahead before thinikng ofl
issuing bonds. Mr. Walker has de
clarcd against the proposition.

AND DAILY SENTINEL
CORDELE, GEORGIA, FRIDAY, JUNE 23, 1922
Just before the squares of the cotton are large enough for the
weevils to puncture and deposit thejr eggs, which is usually
about the time the first cotton bloom ‘appears in the field, it you
have any weevils, the cotton should be dusted twice at an inter
val of three to four days. Then watch ycur field carefully, and
when you find infested spots, if there are any, dust these spots
two or three times at about three day intervals, and pick up each
time all of the punctured squares, Later, when you find the wee
vils infesting your field, dust the cotton every five or six days.
Should the infestation be heavy, dust every four days for three
or four dustings, or until the weevil is under control,
If the weather is dry it is best to continue to dust so that the
boll weevil will be under control should wet weather set in.
If the weather is wet, continue to dust, as dusting in wet wea
ther is very effectiv unless there comes a hard rain immediately
after the application. Should this happen repeat the application.
Continue your application during the season until the cotton is
matured beyond damage from the weevil.
With an average infestation we recommend that the farmers
supply thergselves with 256 to 35 pounds of dust per acre for the
season. Dust at night or early in the morning when the dew is
on the cotton. The atmospheric conditions are much better at
this time for success.
Use an average of about 5 pounds of calcium arsenate per acre.
It will require more when the cotton is large, and les€ when cotton
is small.
A hand gun is very satisfactory for a small acreage and for
dusting infested spots. A two-row or Mule-Back duster is good
for a larger acreage and still better for a larger acreage is the
Three-row Traction Duster. The bhoard has already sent out a list
of approved machines. If you have not received one, you can get
this list by writing to the State Board of Entomology, Atlanta, Ga.
If you will (l\st carefully and properly, applying it as directed,
you will have success. Do it right and succeed.
