BOLL WEEVIL NOT TO

Hu Almdy Cowed Practi

“ThU is likely the laet year In
which the formers of North Carolina
will be interested in the actual spread
of the boll eroevil,” aaye Franklin
Sherman, Entomologist foe the North
Carolina State Experiment Station.
“Hereafter are will be more intonat
ed in the damage the pest aril l do
and in methods of combatting hit
ravages because after this year we
will not have very much territory left
to invade.
“At the eloeo of 1921, the weevil
had method a line running approxi
mately aa follows: Hickory to Balls
bury, to Raleigh to Wilson, to Wash
ington and to Belhavon. No specimens
were found north of that lino until
late August of this year, when the
new migration begun.
"Now we have specimens from the
following outermost points: at Ad
vance in Davie, in southern Alamance
at MIHbrook in .Wake (at Raleigh of
course,) northeastern Edgecombe
near Hobcood, Scotland N«ek hi Hali-1
fax. WinckoT in Rartk. all nf Martin.
■ad »t Craml] in Washington Coun
ty. It ao happens that as yet we have
no actual record of it from any other
eouaty which actually touche* the
Virginia Una, though each a record
may develop any hour. The weevil
ih likely In the ecu them peat of
Northampton already."
From the apealmen* coming in to
Mr, Sherman at preaent, it is known
that the weavll ha* reached AW
marie Sound, but no specimens bevel
yet come from north of the sound. |
Nor has he any record of it up to this
date from euch outlying cotton coun
ties aa Orange, Durham, Granville,
Vanes, Warren and Gates.
Mr. Shorlhan states that the now
territory invaded in 1922 is doe to
escape with rather light injury in
1923, with damage being much mono
severe to the south and eastward
This new tarrhoey will be due to
receive normal sever* injury In 1924.
Mr. Sherman urges all cottoa grerw
en to secure and study Extension
Circular 124, "Farming Under BoH
Weevil Conditions," which can be
secured from the local county agents
or from the Agricultural Ertetmkm
Service, Haleigh, North Carolina also

may bh secured ^from the coanty

Newspaper readers are aware that re
try few days there la a news story
of maskers of the klan marching into
some church where sarvioaa are ia
progress clad in the “robes of their
order,’ which rfkans that they art die
ruised, and interrupting the service
to hand the preacher a letter approv
ing bis work and making a donation
for eomo charitable or religious f w.
and than march out. Tha braaenneea
od tha advertising scheme was so ap
paraet that it ia surprising the klana
«*sn wore not called to aceouat for
disturbing religious aorvioas. If they
arantod Jo gtva the preacher a dona
tion and expreas approval of his
work they oould hues sent the 1st

to the preacher's hosns by messsngsr
or handed It to him on ths street.
But that would not have gives 'ka—
