Washington?To the general pub- 1
lie, the boll weevil is ja pestiferous insect
which does something to the cotton
crop. To the cotton grower the
boll weevil is a cataclysm, a disaster,
a nightmare of 'error. To the count
try as a whole the bool weevil is the
cause of an economic loss of vnguessed
proportions.
According to statistics of the Department
of Agriculture, in the year
1921 the crop of cutton harvested was
7,954 000 bales. It should have been
IK,000,000, but 10,712,000 were ruined
bv ivitural phusps. ilih) of this enor
mous quantity so destroyed the boll <
weevil alone accounted for 0/277,000
bales, worth with the seed which
would have been ginned, .$010,341,000,
tor the thirteen-year period 1909-1921
the damage done by the weevil reached
the enormous total of $3,102,.152,000.
It is obvious that science can, if it
will, eradicate the boll weevil, just as
it eradicated the mosquito and malaria
and yellow fever from the Canal
Zone. At one time one of the most
deadly spots on the face of the globe,
the Canal Zone is now one of the <
healthiest. The job was done be- ]

HEALTHY SEED,
' BETTER CORN
The Way for Horry Farmers
To Improve Corn
Crop
SORT OUT BEST STALKS
Select Carefully, Dry Husk
and Store Corn
Securely
Clemson College.?Recent studies
have shown us that so much diseases
of corn is transmitted in the seed,
that we now piace more importance
on selection and care of corn for
planting than we formely did, says
Dr. C. A. Ludwig, Associate Plant
Pathologist, who advises that seed
corn should come from healthy ears
on healthy and vigorous stalks, and
should not be subjected to moist Conditions
after maturity either before
or after the harvest.
The selection should be made as
soon as the corn is ripe and before
it has had time to become damaged
by the weather.
Good-sized, firm ears, with wellfilled
butts and tips, and with desirable
shaped grains should be selected.
Ears in which the tips extend
beyond the husks should be avoided,
as this allows water to enter and
cause spoilage. An ear which is so
heavy that it hangs downward on a
broken shank should be discarded,
for the broken shank indicates disease.
Similarly, all ears on down
stalks and all undersized or distorted
ears should be discarded.
Anv mold on an car is cause for
rejection. When broken near the
ear, the shank should be bright in
color. Smudgy appearance or a
"shreddy" break indicates disease.
Selected ears should be husked,
carefully dried, and stored in a dry
place with plenty of ventilation. Each
ear should be tested for germination
and disease before shelling, and all
undesirable ears discarded. Also,
each ear should be shelled by itself
in a separate container and inspect

MAKE HEN GOOD (
EGG PRODUCER
Clemson College.?The two main
purposes of poultry raising are egg s
production and meat production. It 1
is from these sources that we expect (
to obtain our revenues. '
A pullet or hen is an egg machine.
Some of the essential factors in egg j
production are breeding, feeding and ,
breeds, says N. R. Mehrof, Extension
Poultry Sptcialist.
i? i: i i i
Dm-aiiiK*?rroaucuon can no increased
materially by the selection '
and mating of high producing females
and males. How are we going
to pick out the high producers? The (
only accurate method is by the use ,
of trap nests, with which we are able ,
to obtain individual egg records.
With these records on hand, we can ,
select our best producers and mate j
with male birds from high producing
females.
Another very satisfactory method
is culling. Using the physical characteristics.
such as health, vigor and ]
condition, head and adjuncts, condi- ]
tion of vent, body conformation,
handling qualities, moult, and pitr- ,
mentation, we are able to pick the <
producers from the non-producers .
Bv\culling And discarding the pop- 1
producers, we can improve the flock ,
average very materially. It pays to 1
cull, and now is the time to do it.
Feedintr.?Feeding is ""other pi at- j
ter tho poultrvman should carefully {
consider. If the flock is not fed r I
well-balanced ration we cap not ex- i
pect a profit. By a well-bal/inced
ration we mean one in which the j
proportion of protein to carbohydrates
and fnts is correct, ^"his nro- ]

and should be about 1 rov
