Some Weevils Killed But Plenty Are Left Winter’s freezing weather ap parently has reduced the number of boll weevils in North Carolina, but enough of the pests are still left to cause cotton growers plenty of trouble next summer. That’s ,the report of George D. Jones, extension entomologist at N. C. State College.

He urges cotton growers to be thoroughly prepared to fight in sects again ii^, 1951. “Farmers who spent $15 to $20 per acre last year for insecticides—and applied them prb]i)erly—^harvested from 400 to 900 pounds of cotton per acre,” says Jones. 0 In 19^0 the Forest Service of the U.
