New Circular F On Boll Weevil Raleigh June 12.—Bringing its re «eenmendations right up to the pre —* litters from farm ers about their experiences with the *•11 weevil as well as the results of year’s work in dusting cotton with calcium arsenate, the AgH«J tural Extension Service of the bUte College and State Department of Agriculture has just released Exten sion Circular 137 by Franklin Sher Wmm. This circular comprises li stages of practical and scientific in formation written in every-day langu age and easily understood. It gives the advantages and disadvantages of "dusting, explains the method and de scribes the machinery to use. In presenting this circular to the farmers of North Carolina, the Ex tension Service believes that it has fully covered most of those points -that should receive attention in the control of the weevil. The circular is written from the viewpoint of the insect alone and does not combine the recommendations about livestock and other crops. Neither does it take in cultural methods, fertilization and other factors involved in producing a good crop of cotton. It only covers the “protection” of such cotton as is produced. . The circular has now been received from the priater in an edition of 15, 000 and wilrbe sent to farmers on request as long as the supply lasts County agents will also be supplied with copies and those who do not care to write to the Editor, Extension Ser vice, Raleigh, for a copy may obtain one from their county agent. Re quests should be made as early as possible so that all preparations for ■fighting the weevil may be made on time.
