Broadcast this bait over the in fested field, or among the worms when they are on the march. Or Dltoh. When the worms are moving in a mass, they may be halted by digging a ditch across their path. The ditch should be narrow with steep aides. When the worms fall into it. kill them by dragging a log up and down through the ditch.

COTTON WILT; HOW TO PREVENT ITS SPREAD At thia season of the year cotton wilt | Is very active; and, reports from va rious sections of the State Indicate that this troublesome disease la more widespread, this season than everr be fore. Until recently, wilt haa been I Confined to the coastal plain but now *H is also being reported from the Piedmont seotlon; so, every farmer in the State should' keep a dose lookout 'lor the disease and as soon as it Is found take fltep* to prevent its epread. Plants affected with this disease shed their leaves, wilt an(| die. Upon examination, the Wilted plants will be found to be black on the Inside. If the ?tem Is split open black streaks are found beneath the bark and in the tis sues of the stem. This black colora tion is very characteristic of wilt. Cotton wilt if caused by a fungus which grows into the roots and stems of the plants from the sell, it gets in the water ducts and vessels of the ; plants asjd finally plugs thett up; and, In tmg way, cuts off (he circulation of | water and plant food, eanaing the plants to wilt and 4is> Thia fungus I will Hve in the soil indefinitely so that I soil onoe Infected with it will remain diseased for a long tHne.

' F ?? l y " . # through plows or Implements of any kind that carry ?oil from the diseased areas to other , parts of the frUBBt. It might also be carried in drainage watter. Where the disease Is found In tixe fields at this season of the year, pre cautions should be taken to prevent its spread. Out out the diseased patches and do not plow through them, and pre vent drainage water from these patches from getting on to othsr parts of the farm. It is also a good plan to pull up and destroy the dlseasad plants . where wilt occurs In small patches. V When wilt is already prevalent. It ca* be controlled by the, use of dis ease resistant varieties., The Dixie and the Dillon are two varieties which are almost immune to the trouble. These varieties are being grown suc cessfully on lands which ?*ra so badly diseased that no other varieties will grow on them at all.
