H. Bran-' ; non, extension entomologist at1 State College. , I Climatic conditions during the i winter and this spring have been I J favorable to boll weevil develop| ment, Brannon point out, and , if cloudy, rainy weather occurs t i frequently during the cotton i i growing season, weevils will be i ' numerous. JI During the latter part of 1934, | he continued, the weevil infestation in this State was heavy, enough to leave a large supply j ' of weevils for this season. Win ; ter temperatures were not low ' enough to kill all the hibernat' ing insects. The weather so far this spring | has been conducive to their development All cotton growing ! counties of the State will pro: j bably be affected, Brannon said, | and indications are that damage will be heavier than usual in the ! | Piedmont area. "I He is urging cotton grav ers to j _ prepare now for controlling the j weevil. "Boll weevil poisoning is '1 recommended by both State and ! the Federal Agricultural agencies j and it should be considered a I regular part of making the cot- j ton crop," Brannon said. "Do not wait until the weevils J 1, attack the cotton in great num-' II bers. Get your machines in order, j 1 Lay in a supply of poison.

As soon as the weevils are detected, start spraying or dusting. Don't raise your cotton for weevil food."

C., May 28? North Carolina public officials are continuing the unique and valuable system they initiated through the Institute of Government in 1933 for cooperation between the legislative and administrative branches of the government. Representatives of city and county governments in every section of the State will meet with their State and National legislators here Monday and Tuesday, June 10 and 11, to hear interpretations of the new State and Federal acts and to discuss by groups the laws affecting their particular offices, towns and counties. The first such meeting, hold in 1933, met with an enthusiastic response. More than a thousand people, representing 98 of the State's 100 counties, took part, and the addresses and discussions proved so stimulating and beneficial, it was decided to make the interpretation meetings a permanent affair. The system for keeping the two branches in touch with each other was expanded still further this year. A joint meeting was held in the fall at which organizations of officials and citizens' groups had the opportunity, for the first time, to lay their legislative programs before the newlyelected representatives for consideration in advance of the meeting of the General Assembly. A Bulletin Service was initiated which kept officials and citizens alike in touch with the dayby-day doings of the Legislature.
