Cotton Planting Under
Boil Weevil Conditions
Tim? and Methods of Planting
and Culitvation To Beat
The Boll Weevil.
Clemson College, April 12? A greal
many fanners are asking: about the
time of planting cotton under bolj
weerll conditions. The answer tc
this Question, says Prof. C. P. Black
well of the agronomy division, is thai
the time of planting which gays bes1
results in the previous years wil]
rive best results under boll weevil
conditions. The best time for plant
tag varies according to the season
Cotton is a warm weather plant. Ii
will not make a healthy growth until
[* ? sell is reasonably warm and dan
" rf frost Is past, to It is general
ly l*69t not to plant until ths sell is
warm. Thea M is well to plant in s
well prepared seed bed seed which
las been deltnted with sulphuric
icld. Thle should give prompt and
iintferm gemination and should allow
the cotton to get started before
the weeds come. - Cotton which Is
planted too early while the toil is jet
?o!d will not make a quick growth,
ind the weeds will have an opportunity
to he fin growth at the sane time
the oetton does, thus making the
*rap more difficult to cultivate and
frequently resulting 1b a poorer
itand.
Methods of Planting
In order for cotton to make a good
itart the seed should not he planted
In direet contact with heary applieatione
of ?ommerolal fertiliser. Where 1
i?avy applteations of eomaaeroial fer:ilirer
are made, some kind of efcorel
plow should be run through the furrow
ahead of the eoHos planter to
nix the fertiliser thoroughly with the
10H before planting. If the eetton Is
Ranted in direct contact with the
lerttlisar, there may be no Injury If
aeary rains follow the planting and
preriat the concentration of the oof!
solution. But if dry weather follows
the planting, the soil solution hetomes
very concentrated and the
fonng roots at the plant are hlHed,
rhls may result in a poor stand of
>otton by killing off many of the
roung planter er it may result In a
Kunted erop by delaying the early
rrowth of the plants. Thie has not
seen tush Important matter it the
put, as there has osnalir been a
ong growing season and (Be cotton

Oareful atention to this point may
prevent serious )om.
Another factor la planting radar j
Soil weevil condition! whieh deletes
earafu! consideration at this
1me Is the spacing of plaata at tima i
if planting. By planting dellnted!
iMd It Is possible to drop tbe eeed at
it most any Interval desired, and by
slanting aavaral seed In aaah hill a
jood aland may be aeourad.
This makes It profitable to cultlrata
cotton wHh a spike-tooth harwr
or a row harrerw at an early
lata aad to keap the weeds down and
hereby sava much labor and eupanso
in ehopping.
paolng
Farmers have frequently bean ad
rised to space their eotton far apart
n order that the sunlight may gat In '
between the plants and kill the we- I
rvlls in the squares which fall to the !
ground early in the season. Tills
netkod Is reasonably successful 1b j
he western part of the Cotton Belt,
vhere there are many long periods of
Iry hat weather during the early sumner
months. But it is not sueJ"'
J- KnsiQiiedi
GSSIUl IB BUUUI vaiuuiio
here are no lone periods of dry hot
reather. There have been many ex erimenta
to determine the best spacng
of cotton plants, but there are so
nany factors entering into the <;onilderatlon
that it Is Impossible to
et a definite spacing which would
>e best fer all farms.
Each farmer needs to study his
rtrn conditions and use the spacing
fhich rives best results on his lard,
"ha fortliitr of th? soil, the amount j
f rainfall, the kind of cotton planted.
,nd the amount of fertiliser used are
1! factors which should he consider-I
hi seeing cotton. As general
ule, enperlmantfi have shown larger
lelde from the relatively close apaerig.
At the Pee Dee Experimant
Itatlon best results hare been gotten
y planting In 4-foot rowa -with plants
ot more than ten to twelve Inches
part In the row. This on a com para Ively
fertile 90II, yielding about one
nl one-half bales per acre As an
rerage.
Cultivation
The primary object of cultivator f
