Japa n Must Be Told To P««**e
With the vision of those graves
in Flanders still before us, it is well
for the earnest people of the country
its well as California, to consider the
operations of the Japanese, which
■lowly but certainly are leading
Uncle Sam into a situation of danger
The Japanese people are no more
desirous of war than are the people
of thh United Staten. But sometime!
a powerful militarist group gets out
of hand and openly flouts the public
will.
Had the voice of America been
heurd in protest early i n the F anco-
Germun crisis the voice of re-.l Ame
rica whose population is so >/er-
whclmingly found in towns of . mull
population such us this, and on the
farms-—unspeakable misery would
, have been saved in many an Ameri
can home. It remains to be c j e n if
the experience has taught us any
thing.
Japan has for her aim—thi aim
of her controlling powers—continu
ed violation of the territorial inte
grity of Asiatic Russia, the control
of all Munhuriu and dominio,. over
China and the Pacific Ocean.
Perhaps wo might safely adopt
the policy of watchful waiting in
this connection but for the fact that
by her deft diplomacy Japan ha:
jockeyed Uncle Sam into the pos'ti
on of responsibility for Japanese ag
gregation, so soothingly doscrin-vi as
temporary territorial extension of in
fluence. Unless Uncle Sam makes
clear the fact that he is not yer dop
ed, and refuses to become the foot
ball of foreign embroglios stom
clouds are bound to gather.
The honor of the United Stutes
is boing turned into a football It
murt be brought back to oar <rn
keeping if we are to remain peace
ful and secure, and it only requires
public interest and understanding :c
bring it back.
The Florida Method For Boll Weevil
Control
We make n° claim for the recotly
announced method of boll weevil
control outside the state of Florida,
declured Wilmon Newell, director of
the Florida Experiment Station, in a
letter to The Progressive Farmer re
cently. Thoughtful farmers will ag
ree that Director Newell is light in
taking this position. It is the attitu
de characteristic of safe, scientific
men. With them nothing is trie un
til it has been proven true.
Under Florida conditions the ‘.drip
ping of all squares from the cotton
about June 5 and followinglmmedi
ctely with an application of calcium
';.«rscnate. forced in. and around the
bud by means of a dust gun. killed
such a large proportion of the bob
weevils that the crop was left prac
tically unhampered until the tine of
weevil migration from other fields
Sensational conditions enter into
thi.~ plan in a big way. There is no
reason to strip the squares and apply
the poison until practically all the
hibernated weevils have emerged Jt
is of the utmost importance that this
take place before a large number of
squares have formed. The investiga
tor, Gorge D. Smith, sayls the num
ber of squares at time of stripping
y of Madison, Florida Mr. Smith
found in 1919 that practical!,- all
the hibernating weevils had emerged
by June 5. In order to prevent: th c
''ormation of too many squares pre
vious; to this date of weevil emer
gence Mr. Smith found it ndvisa c
to delay the planting of col.-.i in
that section until about the last week
in March, or about two ir thicc
weeks after the usual time. In that
wa.v ho could catch nil the weevils
out early enough to permit the strip
ping of squares without 5n 5 uring
the crop. Where stripping was de
layed too long there was some dam-
nige to the crop. But even under
those conditions more cotton was
produced than in adjoining fields
) that were not treated.
Can the season of practically coin
j/lete emergence of the weevils be
made to jibe in other sections of the
Cotton Belt with the season of early
square production? Further North
in the Cotton Belt the emergence of
the weevil from winter quarter.- is
probably delayed apprecibaly. fo ip
ft-o season of production of squares.
Here too, variation In time of plant
ing tna.v serve io make iwo factors
fit. The college and experiment .-i!n-
Mon: will have to make counts to
find when the weevils are out prac
tically in full force. Thnt in forma-
‘ion will give a basis for adjusting
be dote of plnnting.
Of course we must keep in mind
that the anqual migration mav upset
our plans. Time enough to put on
and practically mature a good crop
of cotton must he allowed aft?.* strip
pint* and before the migrition of
weevils from other fields. In Florida
thh migration begins near the first
of August. That allows the crjp
nearly two months (from Ju-* 5 to
August 1). in which to put on fruit
and get it out of harms way. \r. im
portant question further North is
whether the migration from other
field! will come too early to permit
the making of a good crop after
stripping. It is already an estan'fsii-
ed fact that migration or flight takes
place appreciably Inter in the north
cm portions of the Cotto n Belt than
further South.
Naturally rapid fruiting during
the period of respite from weed! at
tack is highly important. The plan
therefore can be made more effect
ive by (1) the use of varieties witl
the habit of rapid fruiting when
it once starts, (2) the use of fortili
*en to hasten fruiting and (3) plan
ting on land that has a natucii ten
dancy to force rapid fruiting.
The plan is indeed encouraging
The Florida Station will continue it*
good work in an effort to secu:,? tin
the? information of practical value
and to verify, under future conditi
ons the results) secured with sucuh
great uniformity in such a large
number of test* in 1922. The United
States Department of Agriculture
and the state college and experiment
stations outside of Florida wiU n^-.-d
no urging towards immediate e"‘r.ti
in conducting tests of the plan ir- all
important regions in their re3py> rivj
states. Jn most states the dates of
approximate,emergence are probably
already known. The dates of migrn
tion or flight are already kno i* j in
each state. In most cases comparativ
ly little will remain to be done e\-
-ep* to put the plan into execution
to test its value. Farmers all over
the South 1 will await with interesi
the announcement of result--; by
their state experiment stations. As
announced by Director Newell the
plan is believed to be safe for Flori-
da conditions. It will be tested and
ratested many times to make sure
of its value. Other cotton growing
states must determine for ;hemsc
Ives whether the plan is adaptable
to their conditions.—The Progies
