He writes as follows: "Referring: to the boll weevil catcher, will say that in principle of! construction it resembles a great j many of the various contraptions | that have been devised by various j people from the earliest days of the ; weevil's entry into the United I States. None of these contraptions j were found of value in accurately j conducted experimental tests. "There are a great many factors | tnat maKe ior or against a cuu,un crop, as every farmer knows. Some of these factors are controllable, while the greater number are beyond the farmers', control. A great many creep upon a farmer so that he does not recognize them -until it is all over and then he says, "if I had jjist known that." "Time and again these factors are favorable and the farmer makes a crop in spite of himself, and then again they are unfavorable and the farmer can not make a crop in spite of himself. 1 "Time and again a farmer uses some scheme, may be a boll weevil catcher, a brush, a square collector, or anything else, and he makes a crop. Had the best been accurately conducted and all factors guarded by properly laid checks, he would have discovered that the success of th*> cron was not at all due to any one or more of his schemes but to weather conditions and parasitism and good management.
