HOW HE WILL FIGHT
THE BOLL WEEVII
(Humberton Robesonian.)
Mr. L. H. Townsend, of St.
Taul, has a method all his own of
getting ahead of the boll weevil.
ITe has 250 acres planted in cotton
and say* he it going to plant com
in between his'cotton rows. He is
not going to-pay any attention at all
to that com until the fourth of
July. If by that time it appears
that the |>e*ky l»U weevil is going
to ruin hi* cotton, they may take
it and he hanged, and he'll make
com; bnt if it appear* that he is
going to make enough cotton to
fool with, spite'n the weevil, then
he will plow up the com and make
cotton. Hp figure* that it wil^ not
cost him over ten cents an acre tn
plant the corn. He if going to take
out insurance. It is an experiment
the result of which will be interest
ing to learn.
