t44.44M. 4,7.4,
By W. D. HUNTER,
Bureau of Entomology of the United
States Department of Agriculture.
During the season of 1900 a note*
j worthy advance was made in the control
of the boll weevil by means of a
! poison. The credit for this achievement
belongs to Wllmon Newell of the
j state crop pest commission of Louii
siana. Iu experiments with paris green
for the destruction of the boll weevil
1 carried ?*n In previous seasons it was
found tL..t a certain number of tho inI
sects were killed. It occurred to Mr.
! Newell that the number reached by the
i poison would be increased greatly if a
I substauce much Oner than parts green
; could be obtained.
Arsenate of lead was the'poison that
i was selected. Very large quantities of
| arsenate of Idfcd may be applied to
growing plants without any injury
whatever. In the m?e of parts green
the presence of a small amount of free
arsenic causes considerable damage to
cotton plants If tt is applied at the rate
of as little as five pounds per acre.
Mr. Newell succeeded in having an entirely
new form of arsenate of lead
made by one of the manufacturers of
Insecticides.
Used as Fine Pewder.
The substance is an exceedingly fine
I l*>-wjc<kythat can be forced Into the
. buds antl sxemJknto the covering of the
' squares (unbftfwn bods) of the cotton
; plant to s fir greater extent than a
, comparatively coarse powder like parte
green. The preparation of this form
1 of arsenate of lead consequently-nrb"
! la ted two Important difficulties thfff
* attended the use of parte green?that
j M, the danger of training trie pisntTby
! large applications and the dlfficnltj in
forcing the sobetance Into the parts of
tho plants where It would be taken up
: bj the Insect Thus the foundation
was laid for very greatly Increasing
; the mortality that bad previously been
i obtained from the use of another pol
j son.
In 1900 tho state crop pest commission
| of Louisiana had thirteen experiments
j with powdered arsenate of lead locat
| ed at different places, comprising ovei
j forty-six acres. The poison was ap
plied at from one ponnd to fifty-one
I pounds per acre. In different experiments
from on# to ten applications
j were made. In all but one of these
experiments an Increased crop was obtained
that resulted In a profit, aftei
deducting the expense Incurred, which
varied from a few cents to $23 per
j acre.
Too Much Poison Used.
In one experiment which did not re
. suit In a net profit an increased ylek!
of 121 pounds of seed cotton per acr?
was obtained. The very large amouni
of poison need In this case (fifty-one
pounds per acre) Involved such an ex
. pense that this Increased yield was
not sufficient to offset It.
In the experiments In which froir
?ten to twenty-three pounds of the pol
son per acre were used In from flvs t<
seven applications tb?? net profit rai
? from $3.G3 to $2?.f>4 per acre. TU<
most profitable amount of the polsoi
to be used seems thus vo be Indicated
although the conclusions from the pre
ffrnl nary'work may be changed as thi
result of future. Investigations.
t most the poison merely places an
I ether means of control at the commas*
t of the planter EJtefythlhg indicate!
that ft will be an Important means

Wholesale Destruction.
There are many vital reasons wh.v
the wholesale (Instruction of the wee
vils in the fall should be practiced bv
every cotton planter In the infested re
gion. Some of these are stated below
First.?Hordes of adult weevils
many for each plant In the field, art
killed cutrigh^
Second.?Many more weevils that an
""In tire Immature stages, possibly as
many as a hupdred for each plant ir
the field, are also killed.
Third.?The few adult weevils es
caping will be weakened by starvation
l and the great majority will not have
j sufficient strength to pass through tbt
I winter.
' Fourth.?The development of the latt
broods, which experiments have showc
furnish the vast majority of weevils
> that pass through tbne winter. Is cm
off Immediately.
I Fifth.?The removal of the infestec
plants with the weevils facilitates fal
] or early winter plowing, which is th<
' j best possible "procedure In cotton rais
I ing. Moreover, this plowing assist!
1 greatly In the production of un earlj
crop the following season.
Should -Ge Done Early.
No definite rule ran be laid down at
[ | to.jlie proper time for destroying th<

I er time Is whenever the weevils linv?

can be destroyed If the work be don?
