On The Farm
Production Front
By B. B. CAMPBELL
COUNTY AGENT
Circular No. 372 has recently been
published on controlling cotton in
sects. For cotton farmers the problem
of cotton insect is still a major prob
lem. This leaflet makes the following
suggestion for the successful control
of cotton insects, (l) Know the kind
of insects present in the field which
damage cotton. These include boll
weevil, boll worm, thrips, aphids, red
spider, flea beetle and army worm.
Inspect field at least once a week for
damage by these insects. (2) Select
the proper insecticides for controlling
the insect which is doing the damage.
(3) Make thorough applications cov
ering all the plant. (4) Apply in
secticides at the proper time and at
proper intervals between applications.
(5) Continue control long enough to
protect cotton up to harvest.
In recent years early insect dam
age by such insects as thrips, aphids,
red spiders, flea hoppers and flea
beetles has become a major problem
in cotton production. Most of these
insects are so small that they cannot
be observed by the farmer. However,
in reducing stands of cotton and re
tarding growth they do great dam
age. Most of these insects start dam
aging the cotton as soon as it comes
out of the ground and most damage
is observed in the first four to six
weeks after the cotton plants emer
ges. An early application of BHC
when the cotton has from two to
three leaves will usually check these
insects. Some years it is necessary to
apply two to three applicatioins to
get effective, control. Weather con
ditions is a big factor as these insects
do more damage ’in cool, damp
Weather.
Our county form tour will be held
the first part of May, and as part of
this farm tour I will schedule at least
one stop at a cotton field in which
we will try to find and identify some
of the insects which do early damage
to cotton.
The farmers have until June first
to sign up for the corn and cotton
contest and rules for these contest
are the same as for 1952.

It is difficult to imagine more convincing
proof of Chevrolet’s superiority, for such
clear-cut and overwhelming preference can
lead to but one conclusion:
Chevrolet trucks must be better, must
