UI3ERNATE WEEVILS As the weevil advances over the state, it becomes clearer every ''ay that wc are not only dealing wi'h thr weevil problem but that v.*e are to deal with the problem under en irely new conditions, for South Carolina _?renditions in rela piCC*' Vi??tivv.v tion to its coastal line different probably from those in any tern ory .ie weevil has passed heretofore. It. i? not only necessary to perform certain experiments with great care, but it is imperative that the hibernation of the pest be carefully studied during the winter as this study will provide certain information which is necessary to guidance during next season, The entomologists of Clemson college are therefore now directing theii attention to this phase of the problem says Prof. A. F. Conradi. Hibernation cages have beer built on Little Edisto Island, Charleston county. The cages have beer built so that the weevils placed in them for hibernation will be as nearly as possible under the conditions of the field. The cage is six feet high, four and one-half feet long and six feet wide, and the frame work of the cage is e<#vered with gauze screening. Within the cage hay and spanish moss have been placed for the weevils to hibernate in. _ 3*5 , During November 3,000 live weevils were collected and placed in the ???i??? ii i " It radiated "home" in a measure all out 01' proportion to its size.

It I ild be printed on the label that the erial is satisfactory for cotton | :ing and that the manufacturer lifies straight use of* the material tout the addition of lime or any 4 ;r carier. Ttyis is the urgent adof the boll-weevil specialists of lTn?te(i States Department of j kiY-ire. If it is neglected, they the farmer may get material ; either will not control the wee- j or that will kill his cotton. j t i 1 Danger In Careless Buying j oisoning, they contiue, will conthe weevil, but the whole scheme iriously imperiled by careless buy- " of poison. Much of the supply 1 -it 1 \ ;red last year was woirniess or se than worthless. Many con- 2 is are beginning the manufacture :alcium arsenate, and there is rger that there will be even a ;er percentage of unsatisfactory j :erial than last year unless care ixercised in purchasing. As many ( mers are already making their chases, or will shortly do so, now I he time to exercise such care. " 'he farmer should not buy calcium t enate merely because it is labeled sold as such, the specialists say, , should buy calcium arsenate by cifications, It should contain not re than three-fourths of 1 per it of Water-soluble arsenic itoxide, on account of danger of ning plants. It should contain not 5 than 40 per cent total arsenic. If contains much le^ it will not itrol the weevil. Its density should betwen 80 and 100 cubic inches the pound. Otherwise it will not ke a satisfactory dust cloud and ? plants cannot me treated sucisfully with it. IK Constitution of the ^United ites requires that a census be taken ;ry ten years.
