BOLL WEEVILS
KILLED BY USE OF
HILL’S MIXTURE
The demonstration of "Hill’s
Mixture” as a boll weevil destroy
er given yesterday afternoon by Its
lpventor, Mr. L. D. Hill, of Gough,
Ga., proved an unexpected success
—unexpected because Mr. Hill only
guarantees 100 per cent death of
weevils when tho field treated has
twenty-four hours «f dry weather.
The demonstration was given
ovor about ono aero of cotton Just
beginning to bud on tho farm 6?
Mr. W. T. Phelps. The application
of 'poison proved very simple, be
ing Applied by Mr. Hill hlmsolf and
anyone who would volunteer. A
threo-fooL stick with a rag mop
and a small can of mixture being
tho only equlpiment roqulrod. A
few drops were mopped over each
plant, the mop being dipped Into the
bud whe^ possible. An acre was
covered in this manner in a very
few minutes. The field was first
examined for weevils and wherever
one was found a stake was placed.
On one plant five weevils were
caught and on another ten weevils,
and both plants were surrounded
with wire gauxe to preveht escape
of weevils.
It Is claimed for this mixture
that the weevil will climb a plant
to get to*1t and this fact was
proved absolutely In the case of

eight miles south of town. About i** >'Mt two weevlla yesterday

100 Per Cent of Weevils Killed
When wo went over the fields
of Mr. Sanders wo found 100 per
cent of tho woevlls under tho
marked stalks dead. All three were
Ivlng dead under the plant that
.had tho three on it. Mr. Jack Hart,
the 'demonstration agent of Laur

A handful of weevlla were caught

I am thoroughly convinced that
the poison Is both effective and

attract tho weevil. If the poison
had no attractive power for tho

fatalities of weevils, owing to the
