The Band is under the direc
tion of Captain Edward S. Brid
ges who is a college trained
conductor and an experienced
music educator. He has been
awarded the Air Force Com
mendation Medal for promoting
good will with countries in the
far East and has held positions
with various Air Force Bands
in the northern and western Unit
ed States. Captain Bridges is
intensely interested in public
school music and he and the
Band have made many contri
butions to this area.
One of the unique features of
the Continental Air Command
Band is its bagpipes. The CAC
Pipers in their colorful and
authentic Scottish traditional
garb are one of only two such
units in all the Air Force Bands
around the world (the other
pipe corps is in the U. S. Air
Force Band in Washington,
D. C.)
WASTING MONEY
You may be wasting your
money and time if you apply
fertilizer around your shrub
bery and fail to supply the pro
per amount of water. According
to Gerald Smith, horticulturist
with the University of Georgia
Extension Service, fertilizers
are effective only when ample
water is present in the soil.
Some of the first experiments
in atomic fission were made at
the University of California
radiation laboratory.
County
Agent
Says . ..
BY EMMET V. WHELCHEL
i Houston County Agent
About this time every year boll
weevils are much in cotton
fields, much in the news and
much on the minds of cotton far
mers.
It doesn’t seem quite right to
call such a destructive pest “In
teresting”. However, there are
*■ things about the life cycle and
habits of the boll weevil that
make it unique in the insect
world.
Herbert Womack, the Exten
sion Service entomologist who
specializes in insect control work
on cotton, recently gave me the
most thorough introduction to
the boll weevil that I have ever
received.
Adult weevils spend the winter
near cotton fields, in woody ar
eas, along ditch banks and
around trash and litter near gins
and old farm building. Then, in
the spring, they return to cotton
fields.
If squares are not available,
they feed in the terminals of the
cotton plants. 801 l weevils usual
ly feed at the base of the bud
leaf, causing it to wilt, turn
brown or black, and die. This
type of damage usually is of no
economic importance. It is im
portant, however, as far as the
number of surviving, overwinter
ing weevils is concerned. Those
that made it through the winter
can increase rapidly, resulting in
an intensified spray program la
ter in the season.
Starting in the spring, the fe
male weevil lays single eggs in
cotton squares. Later on, eggs
are laid in both squares and
young bolls. The eggs hatch in
three to five days ,and the grubs
or larvae feed about seven to
eleven days inside squares or
boils before changing into pupae.
The pupa state lasts three to
five days. Adults develop from
the pupae and cut their way out
of the squares or bolls. The
adult female then feeds and
mates about three to seven days
before laying eggs.
The females find squares by
senses, not vision, and usually
lay one egg per square or sever
al in a boll. One female usually
lays an average of 150 eggs dur
ing her lifetime.
The cycles are repeated during
the session until cotton plants
are destroyed or killed by frost.
Theoretically, the off sp r ing
from a single pair of weevils
could amount to 12 million in
one year, but the actual number
is probably somewhere around
2 million.
FEMALES MOST DAMAGING
There is an equal number of
females and males during the
summer, but female weevils are
five to six times more destruc
tive than the males. The males
feed on only two or three squares
every three days, while the fe
males daily will puncture 10 to
12 squares in which to lay eggs.
801 l weevils are most active
when the temperature is from
70 to 90 degrees during the day.
Cotton squares that are dam
aged by egg laying or feeding
will flare in about 24 hours after
being punctured. They may re
main on the plant five to seven
days before falling off.
There is still a lot about the
boll weevil that we do not know.
The effectiveness of insecticides
approved for boll weevil control
will vary not only in locality
but also with the season. There
fore, the choice of insecticides
will be determined by their ef
fectiveness in the particular area
where the weevils are to be con
trolled.
Sassafras is used in making
flavoring and perfumes. Many
old-timers boiled the roots for
tea.

Chevelle prices not only start a full
SIOO less than other mid size cars-its more car.
We've thought of things for Chevelle that other mid-size cars would like you to forget.
For instance, that taut-lined package above gives you a ride that rivals bigger higher priced cars.
(That’s because we thought to give it Full Coil suspension. And a separate frame with a computer
refined mounting system cushioning its Body by Fisher.)
The choice of engines and transmissions you have is the greatest in Chevelle’s field. And if
you're a performance buff, you'll find we did some thinking on your wave length: black-grilled
SS 396's with Turbo-Jet V 8 power you can order up to 350 horses strong.
You also get more ways of putting your personal stamp on a Chevelle than any other mid-size
car offers. Take wheel covers alone. You can order simulated wire ones. Or mag-style.
Or mag-spoke. Or rally-type.
Even so, Chevelle prices start a full $ 100 under any competitive mid-size cars.
How's that for a parting thought!
