DESTROY COTTON STALKS EARLY
TO CHECK BOLL WEEVIL DAMAGE
Atlanta, Ga., September.— (Special.)
“Destroy, absolutely destroy, at the
earliest possible moment, every cot
ton stalk in your field,” is the warn
ing advice which the State Board of
Entomology gives to cotton planters
in and upon the borders of the district
infested with the Mexican cotton boll
weevil.
Stalk destruction is one of the most
important phases of the boll weevil
fight. Pick the cotton early and just
as soon as it is picked, DESTROY
THE STALKS!
The entire cotton crop in southwest
Georgia will be open by September 15
to 30. The boll weevil is now doing
serious damage in many south Geor
gia counties, some twenty to twenty
five of them. Farmers in these in
fested areas should not be misled into
thinking they are going to get more
cotton by the appearance of late bolls.
These bolls which would ordinarily
open, are, many cf them, infested with
the weevil; in the absence of squares
the weevil attacks the boll, even when
nearly mature, and mafey of these will
not open.
Destroy Stalks Early
The quicker and earlier you de
stroy the stalks in the field, the bet
ter the results you will get from it.
The weevil remains in the field until
the first killing frost and then seeks
winter quarters, under trash, around
stumps and along fence rows.
Many weevils are killed off during
the winter, but we want to reduce the
number that goes into winter quarters.
If the stalks are destroyed from Sep
tember 15 to 30, only 2 weevils out
of every 1,000 will survive the win
ter and be ready to attack the young
crop in the spring. If the stalks are
destroyed from October 1 to 15, there
will remain 21 out of every 1,000, from
October 15 to 30, 68 out of every 1,000
and November 1 to 15, 121 out of
every 1,000.
It is easy to see, therefore, why it
is necessary to destroy the stalks as
early as possible. The best and most
satisfactory method of stalk destruc
tion is to PLOW THEM UNDER
DEEP. Use a big turn plow and get
them buried under at least four inches
of dirt; this will destroy millions of
weevils, and thus prevent their going
into winter quarters.
If the stalks are very large it will
be necessary to attach a steel rod or

and everybody can get together
on this great president who has
kept the United States out of
war.
some other device to the plow beam
in order to force them over for suc
cessfully turning them under.
May Be Cut And Burned
Another method is to cut the stalks
and burn them. If the land is free
from rocks and stumps it will be
practical to use a V-shaped harrow.
Any fanner can construct an outfit of
this kind. All that is necessary is to
•make two blades at the blacksmith
shop out of old cross-cut saws, and
attach one, blade on each side of the
harrow. A pamphlet giving instruc
tions regarding this method, will be
mailed from the office of the depart
ment upon application.
If it is not practical to plow the
stalks under or cut them up and burn
them, the department would advise
plowing them up and thus putting an
end to their growth at least four
weeks before the first killing frost.
This will not kill the weevils, but they
will leave your fields and go some
where else in search of food.
If every farmer in or adjacent to
territory infested with the boll wee
vil, would destroy the stalks as here
advised, it would not be necessary to
pick weevils off of young cotton by
hand in the spring.
Restricting Its Progress
The boll weevil is making rapid ad
vances in Georgia, and has already
traveled more than 50 miles eastward
in South Georgia. The department
is doing everything Within its power
to restrict the movement of cotton
seed and other articles which are like
ly to carry the insect, so as to hold
it down to its natural spread.
The department cautions every one
not to carry live weevils to their
farms. If you go into the infested ter
ritory don’t take back any live wee
vils with you. Outside of the danger
of establishing the weevil ahead of
his natural spread, there is a heavy
penalty attached to it, both by state
and national governments.
Any further information or assist
ance desired, will be gladly supplied by
the State Board of Entomology. The
department has a specially prepared
and recent bulletin on the history and
control of the Mexican cotton boll
weevil, a copy of which will be sent
to any one on application. Address,
