Delta Laboratory, .Tallulah, I, June 10. For the past few weeks we have been accumulating records on the emergence of the boll weevil from nearly all of the cotton states and are finding universally, as we fore cast some months ago, that the num. her of over-wintered .weevils is far greater than usual; in fact, m many districts where accurate counts have been made it has been found that we have in the fields now as many wee vils as are ordinarily present a momn later when the first summer-bred hmnA has started to appear. With anvthintr like normal weather con rfitions this is eoinir to mean a tre mendously rapid increase in the wee vil damage, and this will have an im. portant bearing on the program to be followed by those using calcium ar senate for the control of the wee vil ' in the first place it should be re membered that we recommend start ing poisoning when from ten to fif teen per cent of the cotton squares have been punctured by the weevil. Aa a general Tule this condition does not -arise until after the newly-bred weevils have started to, emerge from the. squares. This year, however, we have found many fields where .there are already sufficient weevils present . ... . i-m-m v . a.. to -destroy prac.ucauy an squares as fast as formed. In other words, such cotton wiii never ouirv viwunuc m less the weevils are controlled, and from the ery rtset ,50. pet' - ceiny qr F. ERTEL CARLYLE . ' ATTORNEY AT LAW ' . Notary Puttie la Offke.

Under such conditions it is ondoubt edly going to he necessary to poison earlier than 'ever before Of course, there Is no advantage in poisoning the cotton before the squares form, as weevils are continuing to emerge from ' hibernation during thi s period and furthermore they are do ing the crop no harnu However,' where such' a ' heavy infestation" occurs It will be advisable to make the first application just as soon as the cot ton starts squaring freely, or about the time the plants average from 4 to 5 squares each. The regular poisoning schedule should be started at that time and continued along the lines of the usual recommendations for controlling this early infestation of weevils. I Another very important effect of thl heavy infestation will be felt later in the season. When the weevils first emerge from hibernation and reach the cotton field they move around very little as long as they can find an ample supply of unpunc tured " squares for their use, but just as , soon as the in festation . becomes sufficiently heavy " to puncture practically all squares these weevils start to taove in. search of fresn pastures, in an ordinary season this means, that you usually have only the weevils bred in your own cotton to contend with until some time from the latter, part of July ' to the last of August, de pending on the locality., This, year, howkver, this movement of migration Of weevils will probably start several weeks earlier ' than usual.

C control your own infestation, but you should also extiect that, before you havehad time: td , mature tbe ; tvtit which 'your ptants have:, set .during this period of protection, you will be gin to experience an immigration of weevils from , ttnpoisoned cotton. Of course, this condition would not ar ise if every one in a district was sue. cessfully poisoning his cotton; but this will not be the case this year, and just as soon as all squares in the Unpoisoned crops are punctured the migration to the poisoned fields will commence. This means that every day a large crop of new weevils will move into these poisoned fields, and it is going to take continuous, thorough poisoning to protect to ma turity the crop which has been al lowed to set by the earlier applica tions. These two facts mean "lust this: Successful weevil control this year is going to .require more effort and more poison, per acre than has ever been the .case in the past On the other hand, wherever the land is suf ffeieutly fertile to justify such an effort,' there' is much mre assurance 6f profit " from the opejatiori , than is usually the case: The Increase in the cost( per acre brought about by the mcreasea oumcer ox applications ne cessftry will be far more than .com pensated for the fact that the weevil damage without poisoning will, be far greater than ncrmal, and , thus ..the margin of profit on the operation is tremendously increased. In other words, a heavy weevil infestation such as we have this year means a greater expenditure per acre for poisoning to successfully control it, but it also means a greater actual net profit in dollars and cents per acre from the poisoning operations. tf 0 th? ho. whatever you xSA; In 8S 000 tod books, old Southern tat ijj four million iecea of phiet3 manuscripts,-1, Special fates have been made 4 by the hotels. - letters and bic.
