COPY OF THE REPORT MADE
‘ ON POISON DEMQSTRATION
AT FARM OF MR. D. W. WILSON
The following is a e, py of the report made by Mr. D. D. Wilson, pi
Duluth, poison demonstration conducted last season using seven methods of
weevil control. The work was done by a colored farmer and his four
children. , .
The results show the amount of lint picked from each ewo-acre plot.
Government plot, dust applied with hand gun . ---» 838 pounds of lint
Weevil-Nip, applied with mop and spray .. . x. T*7 pounds of hnt
Wee-Vo- applied with mop and spray .- 720 pounds cf hnt
Check Plot, no poison used -- ™ P ° Un * S °
8011-We-Go, liquid applied with mop and spray . . 627 pounds of hnt
Hill’s Mixture, liquid applied with mop 616 pounds of hnt
We-Killum, Concentrated liquid, using spray 557 pounds of hnt
Florida Method, first squares removed, and dusted ----- 665 pounds of lint
The liquid poisons were first applied June 29th, and the second applica
tion applied July 10th, when the Government method plot was poisoned,
and the Florida plot de-squared and poisoned.
All plots were poisoned again on August 2nd, September 4th, and Septem
ber 12th. The application of September 4th, was washed off by rain.
Picking up squares was begun July 11th, and the check plot yielded
1500 punctured squares, while the total amount gathered from the six
poisoned plots (12 acres) amounted to only 1200. #
Squares were again picked July 19Jth,-20th, and the total squares picked
was 950, being a very small difference in any of the plots.
The next square pickinf was July 24th,-25th, which showed a total of
650 squares. ’
Three other pickings were made August 6th,-7th, 9th,-10th and 13th,and
14th. No effort was made to count the squares on these pickings as the
increase was large and many faults were showing up. This completed the
fight on the posioned plots but two extra pickings of squares and grown
weevils were made on the check-plot late in August and early in September.
It is believed to have accounted for tke good showing of this plot. •
The cost of pi: king squares on the whole area ’allowing 50 cents a day
for the small children did not exceed *I.OO an aede, counting the extra
work on the check plot.
The poor showing of the Bcll-We-Go preparation could have been on
account of the spray failue to work properly.
The Hill’s Mixture plot seemed worse infested with weevils. Test counts
in'neveral places showed well over 200 weevils to the acre in middle of
■June.
We-Killum sprayed perfectly hut seemed to have held the growth back
as the last two pickings of cotton exceeded all other plots except the
government plot.
Removing the squares cn ih« Florida plot was thorough and the loss ir.
yield was about equal to the pruneing.
The work was all done by a colored cropper and his four children,
except the removing of squares from the Florida plot, which was done by
the county agent. ,
I think the thorough work of picking the punctured squares on the check
plow which yielded 1500 the first time, and the very dry weather later
that killed many young grubs was largely responsible for the large yield
/
on this plot. *
The large yield on the government method of dusting plot demonstrated
the value of applying dust du'ring dry weather as it was extremely dry at
this time; but there is Always enough dew to get the weevils if the poison
is applied.
Good results have not been obtained where enough was applied to make
the plant white as then all moisture is absorbed and forms a dough.

BIG WONDER
SHOW COMING
MANAGEMENT WILL
PAY GAS BILL FOR
OUT-OF-TOWN PA
TRONS
Taken* from all angles the en
gagement of Bilaekstone and his
magical extravaganza at the Atlan
ta Theatre week of February 25, is
of more than passing importance.
Not onyl is Blackstone himself re
garded as the foremost of living con
jurers hut the outfit is the largest in
personnel and equipment that has
ever been attempted ni the history
of necromancy. No attraction of any
kind, not even musical comedies, ex
ceeds the Blackstone in magnitude.
In addition to an unusually mode
rate regular price scale the Black
stone management is further lessen
ing the expense to out of town pa
trons. In what is termed “We Pay
The Gas” offer, which appears else-
where in this issue, the showmen
agree to present one ticket free for
each one purchased for cash. This
applies to out of the city patrons
only and can be taken advantage of
through mail orders only. The rhow
people believe that by this method
theatregoers from the surrounding
district will be enabled to see the
big entertainment at no greater cost
than to those living in the show
stand itself.
Not even the late Hfyrmann the
Great, boasted such an elaborate re
pertoire of opulent ilusions as Black
stone maintains. He features the
magnificent and spectacular, thus
placing his enterprise far beyond the
confines of the usual magic enter
tainment and invades the field of
spectacle and extravaganza. In his
famous “Vanishing Horse” illusion
alone, several tons of paraphernalia
is employed. In “Birth of Fashion”
numerous handsome mannequins are
revealed. “Duck Inn” requires the
services of a flock of feathered
Magis let alone their human aide.
Two double length baggage cars
are required to transport the Blhck
3tone outfit while a company of
twenty-five is employed to aid the
master in his mystifying accomplish
ments.
