BOLL WEEVIL IS COMING 10 GEORGIA 10 STAY, SAYS STATE ENTOMOLOGIST 'nEMSL '' ' • ' 1 ■ ' 4 .3 ’ A -y : yt| .. -Y -f fbxZ?*. - Actual photograph by U. S. Bureau of Entomology of boll weevil in flight. It can fly 25 to 50 miles in search of food. Cut There Is No Occasion for Di*. csuragement or Grave Alarm, if We Fight. Atlanta. Ga. —When tlie Mexican cob ton boll weevil comes to Georgia- -au< the chancer, are that a few of him at least are already here he Is com ing to stay. Although extermination is impossi ble, State Entomologist E. l.ee Wor sham says there is no occasion for dis couragement or grave alarm, if —w* fight. Once here lie will remain a perpetual problem, and for the cot ton grower it will be simply a ques tion of the best methods of keeping tlm pest effectively in check. Energetic enforcement of Georgia’s quarantine regulations against, the boll weevil by the department is the one thing that lias kept the pest out of the state so long. The legislature, which has just adjourned gave tlie man of J 15.000 for the continuation of the fight against the weevil. The money is being spent largely in edu cating the farmers as to what to do to minimise the effect of the weevil when It comes. “It is our plan to organize addi tional cotton breeding clubs during the winter and spring in South Geor gia counties." said Mr. Worsham. “We want to render the greatest servicu to the greatest possible number with the appropriation which has been made for this work.” Price a Strong Convert. Commissioner of Agriculture J. D. PWce, as the result of a recent trip to Louisiana, Mississippi and Alaba ma. is a complete convert to the real ization of the damage that the boll weevil has done and can do. Com missionep Price now declares that If It should appear suddenly in the cotton fields of Georgia tomorrow, it would throw the state into a panic. Asa val uable method of fighting the weevil which attacks only cotton, Mr. Price urges diversification of crops and the raising of more meat, forage and food stuffs at home. Entomologist Worsham says the fight is going to be a hard oue, but with careful effort the farmers of Georgia eari minimize the effect of it to such an extent that it will he comparatively small. As an indica tion of the necessity for constant vig ilance and attention, it is pointed out that each female will lay about 300 eggs, which come to maturity within 15 to 25 days, according to the season; and there are about four generations each year, so that each female may give rise to 12,500,000 progeny. The boll weevil made Its appearance in Southwestern Texas in 1802, and has made an annual advance of 50 to 125 miles eastward. It is now lu Southeastern Alabama, and is expect ed to he found in Southwestern Geor gia before the end of the season. Mr. Worsham says: Attacks Squares and Bolls. “Tiie female deposits her eggs on young squares ami bolls, preferably the former. During the early season it does not attack mature bolls, but. when food is scarce in the late season, boils, are badly infested. "Ti e boll weevil v, inters under trash and rubbish on the borders of cotton fields. Enough of them .m - vive to make breeding rapid and num erous in the spring. “The hoi I weevil travels by means of Its wings, and can easily By 25 to 50 miles at a single flight, in Its search for food. “In many places the weevil has pro duced a condition akin to a panic, be cause of demoralization of labor and business generally. “Hut tin farmers, in infested areas, have demonstrated that cotton can he grown successfully under boll weevil conditions. It will he at least two or three years before the we.evil covers enough territory in Georgia, to do a great deal of damage. If our farmers begin now, they can prevent, to a large degree, the usual demoraliza tion and depreciation of land values. How to Control It. “The principal methods resorted to in weevil control are, first, the plant ing of early maturing varieties. The growers in boll weevil territory who are growing cotton successfully, plant as early as is reasonably safe and make it a point to plant the varieties which mature earliest. The weevils will not attack mature bolls early in the season. “In the second place, hand picking of v.eevils and infested squares is re sorted to. The boll weevil does not damage young cotton to any great ex tent, but waits for the young squares to appear Every leaf should be turn ed over and examined for wpevila and the bugs picked off. '’any have found that the best time to begin picking Is about ’en days before the quares begin to form, because about 30 per cent, of the weevils die before this time. Cotton should be harvested rap Id.y, and the b' t method is to chop (he stalks and plow them under aft soon as possible, to prevent the weevil from getting to his winter quarters. "The fact that early maturing varie ties are more susceptible to black root or w ilt disease lias made the problem a more serious one for Georgia, but. this disease CHn be controlled by prop er rotation and the growing of resist ant varieties developed by the Depart ment of Entomology and the United SfK Psg ™ m .

Careful Seed Selection. “in growing cotton under boll wee vil conditions, seed selection is ali lm .portant. Every farmer should select his own seed front the stalks which mature earliest, which tiave the most cotton and have a tendency to resist disease. The department lias organ ized cotton breeders’ clubs in each of the Southwest Georgia counties, and supplied the members with the li(-- 1. seed it was able to develop. At present we are visiting these dubs and allowing the growers right in the field exactly how to select their cot ton. Seed from individual stalks should not be mixed, and if the grow era do not own a small hand gin, seed are ginned by the Department of Entomology and returned to owner.’ The State Department of Entomol ogy will issue a Complete bulletin on Hie boll weevil at an early date, con taining detailed Information, and this will be furnished free of charge to all who are interested.
