Oontrai-y to the general belief that
boll weevils must be eradicated or
reduced in numbers by expensive
poisoning in order to produce a cot
ton, crop, it has been proved by suc
cessful farmers that increased yields
and profits may be had under boll wee
vil conditions in spite of the weevil
and without the use of poisons where
the infestation is not too heavy. M.ost
of the steps required are included in
what may be called "better farming.”
As they have to do mainly with the
growth and culture of the plant, they
are generally known as "cultural
methods of boll weevil control.”
However, the foreging statement
should not be understood to mean that
poison is not required to produce a
maximum yield and profit. Cultural
methods should go hand in hand with
the use of poison and by the use of
both in the proper way a profitable
crop ig assured. Use of cultural
methods alone is practicable only
when conditions are such that poison
can not be used and when the infe»ta j
tion is slight.
Where no poison will be used it is
especially important to use for cotton
only the most fertile, well-drained
soils where the yielding ability is
good and. if possible, located away
from woods which might shelter wee
vils in the winter. To reduce the
weevil attack cotton should not follow
cotton. A change of crops reduces
insect attack and increases yields.
Beating the boll weevil depends
not on an extra early date of plant
ing but on the crop making a very
rapid growth after it is planted.
Early preparation of the ground, so
there will be a firm, smooth and well
settled seed bed at planting time,
is very important. Planting should
be delayed until all danger from frosts
and cold is past and the soil is warm
enough to insure quick sprouting,
rapid growth and a good stand.
Shallow cultivation should be giv-*
en every week or ten days, and con
tinued as late as necessary to keep
the crop free from weeds and grass.
Cultivation promotes the growth and
fruiting of the plant but does not
kill boll weevils directly. It is a
known and proven fact that with
heavy or light infestation of the
weevils, with the application or with'
out the application of poison, better
farming pays under any and all con
ditions.

lege of agriculture, or the National
