.^Though much warning ha* QIicady

though county agents are preaching
"talk destruction right Jeft, many
farmers are a pj*t really' not fronvlncod
of the need for immediate Htalk de
struction, says l'rof. Conradl, and do
iK?t rca'dze that this la practically the
most important single step in any sys
tem of fighting the weevil.
Holl weevils .multiply in cotton u.n
(ytll frost kills It. Many thousands of
weevil* inay pcour 1" ea</h acre of cot
ton. Weevils hibernate, that In they
I>asH the winter, only in the full grown
stage. Hibernation usually begin**
wltii the coming ??f tli<* first 4cllllng
frost They hlliofOate prlncipaHy in
cotton fields, and standing stalks make
for them splendid winter homes.
Tliejijcwd favorable condition, there
fore. for the successful hibernation for
IkjII weevils Is found In fields where
the cotton stalks, ^rass. weeds, dead
leaves. etc., are left during the winter.
Under such conditions the farmers
may c\i>cct the greatest number of
weevil* to survive the winter- Then*
Ih little pro*p??ct for successful cotton
growing under such <*on(litions.
Thv earlier the cotton stalks are de
stroyed. the fewer tile weevils that will
survive the winter. and consequently
the smaller the damage to the next
crop. As fur as possible. the stalks
?hould la> destroyed two weeks before
. the first, killing frost.
In some sections rho stalks-are up
rooted,. piled and burned, -This meth
od is a very serious disadvantage In
destroying a large amount of vegetable
mutter which sh<?uld Ik* turned under.
Whenever the farmer is equipped with
plows and mules so that the "talks
may be turned under five to six Inches
after they have been cut down with
the choirjicr, if is a very effective
plan. A less effective method is to
graze off all green cotton within a
period of a few days. W hatever meth
od one employ*, the destruction of
stalks must be thorough.
The following are a few of the
many advantages secured from clean
ing the fields and destroying the
stalks.
1. A great many fuM irrown . wee
vlll* are killed outright.
'J. Many young stages in the plants
are killed.
The full grown ueevi.'s not killed
ore weakened by starvation if the
stalks lire destroyed two to three
weeks before the flrM frost and these
will , not have sufficient strength to
(iihs (he winter 'successfully.
I. The removal of the stalks fa
cilitate* fall p'owing and the planting
of cover crops.
