In order to prevent a repetition of the disastrous effects of this I pest we strongly urge that farmers make every effort to check weevils and would call especial attention to j the formulae given below by David R. Coker, one of ! the best informed men on agricultural conditions in i v 1 this State, as well as a most successful farmer: j "Weevil infestation in this section is heavier than it has ever been * fl at this season. Practically all of the April cotton has a very large j weevil population waiting for the early squares and in some iplaces the -fl.. young cotton also has a heavy infestation. Unless we have exceptionally dry weather from about the middle of this month until the v I. latter part of July, those farmers in this section who do not poison i their old cotton at once and their young cotton about ten days or two weeks hence are not going to make a crop. According to the past eight I years' experience there are five chances to three that the weevil will | i | do very heavy damage. j ' * I "The cost of materials for the early applications of poison will ! run under 20 cents per acre. Can any farmer afford not to carry out the early poisoning program when his materials will cost him not over 75 cents per acre and probably less than 50 cents per acre? r Mj "Now is the critical time. Do not delay unless you are willing to swap half your cotton crop for a million boll weevils." " 9 ' II \% THE LOAN & SAVINGS BANK I 1 FIRST NATIONAL BANK I .r . _ }l| THE BANK OF CAMDEN 11 /' - ;; ?
