W. Overman, County Agent and Assistant- County Agent Robert S. Marsh. Three undusted fields examined showed an average of 47 punctured squares and two live weevils pr 100 squares. A heavy build-up of weevils is occurring. Some boll worm is beginning to appear, and do damage and it can be expected these will increase unless they are controlled. Weevils will puncture squares until two-thirds grown. The boll worm will attack even grown bolls. Dusting should be continued every five days until August 20 to 25, say the agents. Toxaphene loses its strength in five days and an active coat should be kept on the cotton con tinuously. “We realize that dusting costs money,” say the agents, “but we believe growers will make enough extra cotton to well justify continuing dusting as recommended above.” The growth of cotton in many fields is such that ground equipment dam ages it considerably. Growers who' are interested in using areoplane ser vice should notify the County Agent’s office and arrangements can be made.
