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. Colonel Riley Finishes Course Al Army College FT. LEAVENWORTH. KAN.~ Army Lieutenant Colonel Walter G. Riley Jr., whose mother, Mrs. Kathryn Riley, lives at 1214 Main St., Perry, Ga., graduated from the U. S. Army Command and General Staff Col lege regular course June 7 at Ft. Leavenworth, Kan.
