A "trash count" has revealed that the number of weevils surviving the winter In southern counties Is much higher than they were a year ago, but still below 1980. On some farms in Hoke and Scotland Counties, the weevli count Is similar to that of 1980. when the state lost (60 million of Us cotton crop to boll weevil attack. The examination of trash was made by Dr. W. J. Mistrle and Dr. M. H. Farrier, of the 8tate Col lege entomology staff, working in cooperation with federal entomolo gists. . f&; . ' Oeorge D. Jones, head of State College extension entomology work, pointed out that trash counts have generally been reliable Indicators of what the boll weevil situation will be the following summer.

Last winter, the survival rate was higher than the previous one; dome 40 pet cent of the weevils counted in December made It through the cold weather.
