HOW TO FIGHT THE BOLL
WEEVIL MENACE IN GEORGIA
1. The Mexican 801 l weevil
appeared before September 15,
1915. in about twenty-six coun
ties of Georgia and will attack
other sections before frost.
2. The weevil is now causing
an annual loss in cotton produc
tion amounting to One Hundred
Million Dollars.
3. It is within the power of
the farmers and the business
men of Georgia to greatly dimin

is capable of causing throughout
the infested territory by immedi
ate adoption of the recommenda
tions given herewith.
4. While it usually requires
three years for the weevils to
reach their maximum numbers
in newly infested territory the
early spread of the weevil this
season indicates that it will be a
serious menace to cotton produc
tion in Georgia even in 1916.

should be completed at the ear
liest possible date. If the pick
ing can be completed by Octo
der 15 it will open the way for
a very complete and practical
control of the weevil.
6. The 801 l Weevil can be
practically controlled by the com
plete destruction from green cot
ton, at least four weeks before
killing frosts occur. Two meth
ods of stalk destruction may be
considered.
Ist. Whenever the teams and
plows are capable of putting the
stalks under four inches of dirt
they may be plowed under.
2nd. When stalks cannot be
plowed under deeply, they should
be uprooted, piled while green
and burned when the foliage is
thoroughly dry.
7. If plants are destroyed by
October 15th, growth of plants
should be stopped by tapping.
8. As soon as plants are de
stroyed plant Winter crops such
as oats, wheat, clover, rye, rape,
barley, where legumes, crimson

be used as winter crops they are
even more valuable than grain
crons.
9. Do not plant cotton next
year on your present cotton
fields. Begin now to prepare for
next year’s crop by careful win
ter and spring plowing.
10. Select seed from vour best
plants, using your earliest natur
ed plants for the purpose, for
next year’s crop. Avoid seed
not adapted to your section. If
wilt or black root occurs on land
you purpose planting in cotton
select only the wilt resistant
types.
Confer with the State Ento
mologist, of Atlanta, who will
advise on this point. Plant at
earliest time you can reasonably
avoid damage by frost using
early maturing varieties.
A successful fight against the
801 l Weevil means better farm
ing and making the farm self
sustaining.
