State Entomoligist Newell de
clares that [the boll weevil may
attack the whole cotton belt. He
says that the only way to keep
off the pest is to plant early cot
ton.
1 There is no practical way to ex
terminate or kill, the insect. It
is about an inch long with wings,
and whenever a person approaches
it flies away to other fields.
There is bnt one way to get rid
of it, and that ii to plant early
cotton. The weevil does not do
rnnch damage until the middle
of July or first of August, and if
the plant has matured its bolls by
then, it is safe from the ravages
of the inseot, as the weevil does
not attack the stalk that late. So
keen is its seuss of looating the
cotton plant that often single
stalks around cotton gins and
railroad tracks are visited by
‘them. If they ever reach the sea
islands they will be taken there
iu bay. or by some means of that
kind.
