DESTROY STALKS TO
REDUCE COTTON BOLL
WEEVILS. AGENT SAYS
Seminole county cotton growers
can sharply reduce the 1942 spring
boll weevil crop by cutting the stalks
as as cotton is picked. Killing
the plants destroy the green food that
weevils must have, and sends them in
to winter hibernation in a half-starved
condition, says County Extension
Agent Bill Brigham.
Heavy damage in most of the Cot
ton Belt this year emphasizes the im
portance of action now to prevent
serious losses in 1942, L T , 3- Depart
ment of Agriculture entomologists
report that boll weevils are still a
bundant and will continue to multiply
as long as food is available.
In tests at Florence, S. C.. last sea
son, 24 times as many weevils that
had food until November 15 lived
through the winter as survived when
the food source was cut off October
15. In other words, Mr. Brigham ex
plains, starving the weevils for 1 :
month jn the fall reduced survival in
spring by 9ft percent.
Cotton leaf wot'h» arp helping to
reduce weevil numbers in some re*
gions by stripping all the foliage!
from the plants, but growers are ad
vised not to depend on the worms be
cause many defoliated plants put on a
second growth and produce late squar-1
es if soil and weather conditions are
favorable.

FSA Will
Stablize Farm
Operations
A program to stablize farm opera
tions in Seminole county, by aiding'
landowners and tenant alike through
lease agreements of mutual advan
tage has been formulated after a ser
ies of meetings of Farm Security Ad
ministration oficials in Region V.
“The goal.” announced FSA Super
j visor, Hugh E. Gleaton, “is a mini-
I mum of ten long-term leases, includ
' ing definite provisions for farm and
home improvement, in each county of.
the State. These model leases will be
used to demonstrate that only through '
this security can the proper conserva
tion of both human and natural re-;
l sources be obtained.”
J These model leases will include,
clauses seeking to;
1. Compensate tenants for making
permanent improvements, either by I
allowances on rent or partial repay-1
ment.
2. Make use of soil conservation op
portunities.
3. Provide for repair and improve
ment of housing standards.
4. Provide for woodland manage
ment-
5. Assure responsibility of both
landlord and tenant.
6. Establish the debt-paying capa
city of each farm and provide a prop
er farm and home plan, to assure ade
quate income to meet all obligations.
Under provisions of the long-term
leases, the FSA will offer two plans
for improvement loans to tenants.
Under one, the tenant will borrow
the money and when the lease expir
es, the owner would pay him the
improvements. Five percent a year
depreciation will be calculated. Under
the second plan, funds for improve
ments would be paid to the tenant,
with the landowner repaying the mon
ey in ten installments, plus five per
cent interest, out of the rent.
Minimum housing stamjard in the
lease would require screens and prop
er repair for doors and windows; sani
tary toilets, pure water supply, sound
floors and foundations, good roofs,
safe chimneys, adequate sleeping
quarters, shelter for livestock and
poultry, kitchens equipped for food
storage and utensils, etc.
Supervisor Gleatton stated also that
an outstanding provision of the model
leases is agreement of the landowner
to give the tenant free use of suf
ficient pasture and garden space.
