WEEVIL JS BEING CONTROLLED BY JPALCfV.M ARSENATE POISON Ri?ld Experiments Show That Wbeti This Preparation is Dusted on Cotton, Puncturing of Sgugres is Cheeked. Aberdeen, Aug. *6.—Although the weevils have become increasingly num erous throughout the southern counties of the state during the past week, they are being held under the control by night applications of dry calcium arsenate by the larger cotton farmers who are using this method of combating them, state Dr. R. W. Leiby, who is in charge of the State College and experiment station boll weevil laboratory here. Tlie entomologists predicted a heavy rise in the infestation of cotton fields to take place dating the latter half of July which was based on their laboratory studies of the development of the weevil. The infestation mounted to tlie ' point where 10 per cent, of the sbuaees were punctured within a few days, and when this point was reached, the poisoning of the cotton plants was begun by tlie larger cotton growers who had prepared to fight the weevil according to the meth ods approved by federal and state ento mologists. Study cf 801 l Weevil. Extensive studies of the habits of tlie weevil are being conducted here in the in connection with the control experiments which are being car ried out on several cotton plantatidbs in Iloke, Moore and Scotland counties. On the plantation of R. F. Stawart in Hoke county the cotton has already been dust ed twice with calcium arsefiate, the 10 per cent, dusting point having been reached on July 24. In one 16-acre field on this plantation, one-half of the field was dusted on the night of July 25 aud again on July 30. Six pounds of poison were used in each application. On August Ist 2.000 sgnnres were ex amiued ill each half of the field to as eertain the degree of infestation. Thai part of tile field, which had been poisoned twice showed nine per cent, of the squares punctured, while tlie other part of the field which was not poisoned showed an increase of from 10 per cent, bn .1 lily 24 to 26 per cent 'on August Ist. "This saving of 17 per cent, of the squares I consider more than satisfac tory." says Mr. Stewart, "and we will surely beat the weevil this year. Os course, we are going to put, on two or three more applications, and it will cost me about seven dollars an acre, but I am now convinced that dusting will gitc us a good return on our investment and that by dusting we can make a bale to the acre in spite of the weevil.” Mr. Stewart reports that night dusting is not as big a job as lie thought it was. He lias picked certain men to do the night dusing work who do not work during the day. These workers once ac customed to the night dusting prefer it to da y work. Good Results Secured. Similar results are being secured on other plantations, stated Doctor Leiby. On the 2011-acre cotton plantation of Carl Buchanan extensive examination of tlie squares on July 24 showed that eight per cent, of the squares in one ’ field were found punctured. One-half of the field was dusted on the night of July 28. using seven pounds of calcium arsenate to the acre. Ops July 31 the undnsted parts of the field showed 17 and 11 per cent, of the spuares pune tilled respectively, the undusted part having increased nine per cent, while the dusted part increased only three per cent. Efforts have been made by tlie ento mologists here to control the weevil in some fields by applications of sweetened Poison. ■ According to' Doctor Leiby. several fields have beou treated three to five times so far this season and all fields in which weevils were originally present show from two to 36 per cent, of the spuares pictured at this time. His investigations indicate that the con tinued use of sweetened poisons fail to hold the weevil in check. Cotton plant ers hereabouts—are having similar expe riences. one prominent Hoke eolunty planter having receiitly purchased a three-row dusting machine with which to apply dry calmmn arsentate after hav ■ing used 20 barrels of a widely adver tised sweetened poison witii unsatisfac tory results. Infestation Irregular. Entomologists Leiby and Harris re port that tile infestation of the weevil is decidedly irregular. There are many •fields in which the weevil has not as yet done great damage and in which dust ing to control the weevils is not yet The large cotton planters are keeping a close watch on the activity of the- weevils and when the dusting point of 10 per cent, is reached in one of their fields, several applications of poison arc made at intervals of each five nights. If a field shows less than 10 per cent, of the squares punctured the cotton is not then dusted. According to Doctor Leiby the eottnn plants sbed a high percentage of their squares nor mally and to wait until 10 per cent, of the squares are punctured does not mean that the crop will be reduced by 10 per I cent. Cotton plants throughout the south ern counties of the state are in excep tionally good condition. The -recent frequent showers while aiding the plants are favorable to weevil multiplication, a'nd heavy damage is loobed for in many fields where farmers are not prepared to dust, before the crop is 'made.
