and the state board of,
Company Proposes Work.
The company which proposed to
do the work eontempfates allocat
ing nineteen planes to this state,
to be used in South Geor
nine in North Georgia and a
of two to be held in re
at the repair shops, which
would be located in Americus.
The plan is to sign up five
‘each in North and South
the fields to be treated
to range from 50 acres up, and
the total acreage to be signed
up to be a minimum of 70,000.
§6 to $7 Per Acre.
A schedule has been worked
Dp. Soule says, whereby the
will be treated to five ap
of calcium arsenate
at a total cost, including the cost
of the calcium arsenate, of be
tween $6 and $7 per acre.
The experiments have shown
that as small a field as 50 acres
can be successfully and complete
ly dusted, and that the entire 70,
000 acres contempleted in the
state can be dusted by the equip
ment it is- proposed to set up in
Georgia in about 14 hours. The
work is done in runs of five to
six hours each time.
Experts To Decide.
It is further contemplated in
the plans that a board of three
entomologists—one representing
the federal government, one the
state agencies and the third one
the state entomologist, will exam
ine crop conditions and determine
at what time and under what con
ditions each of the applications
shall be given.
• Scientific Manner.__________
Dr. Soule says this arrangement
will prove far more economical
to the individual farmer not only
in dollars and cents, but in estab
lishing a degree of certainty that
his necessary fight against
boll weevil is going to be
in a thoroughly scientific and
fective manner.
The cost of from $6 to $7
acre, he says, is below what
would cost the individual
to handle the situation for
self.
