Qotad.) v>J - ? | Cotton farmers are now busy arguing" pro and son the advisability of ...reducing or' increasing the. cotton acreage for 1922, but in the numerous arguments quoted we seldom see any ^mention made of one of the most important factors wh^ch should have a >S*ery jioeitive influence on the cotton .program for the coming season. This "4s the prospect of- boll weevil abundance. For quite a number of years the Delta Laboratory of the Bureau ot Entomology, U. S. Department of Agriculture has been making a series of studies each season to serve as a basis for predictions regarding the reverlty of spring Infestation of boll weevils. The records for 1922 have just been completed and for comparison with these we have similar ircords for the past eight years. The number of boll weevils enierg- i <08 from hibernation each spring det cr.ds on two things; the number entering hibernation in tho fall and the peicontage of theses surviving. Last i:.ll the majority of the cotton belt saw conditions which; permitted an unusually large number of weevils to enter hibernation. The winter' weather has generally been abnor-1 mally 'mild to date and the usual period of severe weather has passed although there is of course still a bare chance of temperature low i enough to influence weevil survival. 'Beeaus'e 6f this mild weather a high rats of weevil survival was to be expected. Our . recent records have more than Verified this expectation." These records are made in a number of different ways but the most comparable criterion is the figure based on the number of live weevils found hibernating in Spanish moss in certain ' selected localities in Louisiana each year^ . During the past few days we have examined over 3G00 pounds of Spanish moss from 15 different selected points reproesnting the different types of hibernating conditions found in that district. This moss is carefully examined and the number of weevils both live and dead noted. From this we compute the ratio of both live and deaffe weevils, per ton of moss, and past experience has shown that this affords a very fair index to the emergence which may be expected. The following table shows the figures for the past eight years! Live "Weevils Dead Weevils Year per to^i of moss per ton of moss 1915 ' -le.d' " v 414.0 1916 24.0 . 136.0 1917 "8.0 144.0 1918 1.7 48.9 1919 4.0 63.0 | 1920 9.5. 15.8 1921 22.0 26.0 1922 427.0 ' - 2.2 From these figures .it is seen that we have far more live weevils per ton of moss in sight now than at any time since these records were started and only a very few dead weevils. Of course the records on the presence of dead weevils cannot be accepted as too accurate because it has been found that mqny dead weevils fall out of the moss during the winter aqd, are thus lost.-. The most striking feature', however, is the fact that the reoordt for this,.year show more than five times as many live weevils in hiber <+\ < , 1 ; " " gQLAC I Bring Back Your | "Honeymoon Home9* I /S MULTITUDE of unappreci- f 2/i oted thingc. m your home; that incc were lovely, are still underneath ura heir scratched, worn surfaces, as j ^ jeautiiul and uiefoi as ever.
