success sfuly in the presence of the j
boll weevil more attention must be j
given to time and methods of plant-j
ings, spacing-, cultivating, etc., says
Prof. C. I\ Black well, agronomist,
who warns against the danger of
planting too . early, suggests delinting
the seed from prompt and uniform
germination, and advices relatively
close spacing and rapid shallow
cultivation.
Time of Planting.
The time of planting which gave
best results in the previous years
will give best results under boll
conditions. The best time for plant-j
ing varies according to the season. |
Cotton is a warm weather plant. It'
will not make a healthy growth until
the soil is reasonably warm an i j
danger of frost is past. So it isj
generally best not to p'ant until the j
soil is warm. Then it is well to
plant in a well prepared seed bed
seed which has been delinted with
sulphuric acid. This should give
prompt and uniform germination and \
should allow the cotton to get start-!
cd before the weeds come. C tton
which is planted too early, while the J
soil is yet cold, will not make a
quick growth, and the weeds will
have an opportunity to begin growth
5?t. ihn siimn t i m r> flin ilir i?
thus making" the crop more difficult
to cultivate and frequently resulting
in a poorer stand.
Cover Up ^Fertilizer.
In order for cotton to make a *
row! start the seed should not be
planted in direct C( ntact with heavy '
applications of commercial fertilizer. '
Where heavy applications of commercial
fertilizer are made, some
kind of shovel plow should be run 1
I
through the furrow ahead of the j
cotton planter to mix the fertilizer
thoroughly with the soil bofo:e plant j
ing. If the cotton is plaide 1 in cli- *
rcot contact with the fertilizer, 1
there may be no injury if heavy
rains follow the planting and pre- '
vent the concentration of the soil
solution. But if dry weat' or follows j
the planting, the soil solution be- j
comes very concentrated and the,
young roots of the plant are killed, j
This may result in a p: or stand of |
cotton by killing off many of the;
young plants, or it may re. ult in a !
stunted crop by delaying the early I
growth of the plants. Thi - has n >t!
boon such an important matter in
the past, as there has usually hoen
a long growing- season and the c t
ton has had plenty' of time to mature.
Under boll weevil conditions,
however, it is a mater of prime importance,
as carliness is very ess- ntial
to success in beating the b 11
weevil. Caveiib attention to this
point may piv\est rc.'r ::s loss.

os careful con.idciati n at this time
is tli? spacing of plants at time of
planting. 11 y planting* delintecl seed
it is impossible to drop the seed at
almost any interval (ledred, and by
planting: several seed in each hill a
good stand may be secured. This
makes it profitable to cultivate cotton
with a spike tooth harrow at an
eaily date and to keep the weeds
dewn and thereby save much labor
and expense in chopping.
Spacing of Plants.
Farmers have frequently been advised
to space their cotton far apart
in order that the sunlight may get in
between the plants and kill the we?vils
in the squares which fail to
the ground early in the season. This
method is reasonably successful in
the western part of the cotton bolt,
where there are many long periods of
dry hot weather during the early
summer months. It is not successful
in South Carolina, because there
are no long periods of dry hot
weather. There have been many
experiments to determine the best
spacing of cotton plants, but there
are so many factors enteiing into
the consideration that it is impossible
to set a definite spacing which
would be best for all the farms.
Each farmer needs to study his
own conditions and use the spacing
which gives best results on his land.
The fertility of the soil, the amount
of rainfall, the kind of cotton planted,
and the amount of fertilizer used
are all factors which should be considered
in spacing cotton. As a
general rule, experiments have
shown large yields from the relative
ly close spacing. At the Pee Dee ex
periment station best results have
been gotten by planting in four foot
rows with plants not more than ten
to 12 inches apart in the row. Tins
on a comparatively fertile soil, yield
ing about one and one-half bales per
acre as an average.
Cultivation of Crop.
The primary object of cultivation
is to destroy weeds and grass. The
cultivation of cotton under boll weevil
conditions should begin early and
should be through. Weeds and grass
should never be allowed to get a
start in the crop, since by so doing
they stunt the crop, .and delay its
mautrity. This deir.y may be fatal,
rhe best implement to use in the
cultivation of cotton is the one which
will destroy weeds and grass most
effectively without injuring the
roots of the cotton plants. Just what
implement that is will depend on the
soil type and the kind of weeds pres
ent. As a general rule, shallow cultivation
is to be preferred if it effectively
destroys "weeds and gras>.

BELGIUM IS MAKING
RAPIDRECOVERY
Brussels.?Belgium has made rap- '
id progress toward industrial recovery
since the armistice, largely owing
to the fact that the country has
had no serious strikes, says M. Jaspar,
minister of economic affairs.
He estimates that the nation's industrial
output has now attained
perhaps 70 per cent of its pre-war
record and that its mines are producing
as much coal as in the year
before the war.
"Amount 70 per cent of our material
which was taken out by Germans
has been returned to us," add3d
M. Jaspar. "The money taken by
the Germans from the Belgium treas (
jry has been returned, but Belgium has
thus far received no indemnity
from Germany. At the beginning of
the armistice 800,000 of our people
vere without work. Our recovery
has been made in spite of the fact
that more than one-half of the Belgians
who had to flee before the
Germans arc still in France, unable
to return because they have no
homes here."
Belgian villages destroyed in the
war are being rebuilt, said M. Jaspar.
In the district of Ypres eighteen
villages have been restored to
such an extent that local administration
has been resumed. "If the t
United States would do for Belgium 1
what she has just done for Poland? 1
establish a credit for her?most of $
our problems would be solved," de I
clared the minister of economics. <
