In practical- ly^evfrjr^case of Red Spider we .find that they start from poke berry bushes. A few cas^s have begun fropi 'black-berry and rose bushes and from t;here spread to the cotton field. If Red Spider is found to have started in a cotton field the following proce dure should be carried out: Find' the poke berry bush, pull up all cotton badly affected and pile into one pile with poke berry bush and burn. Do not plow or walk through from in fected cotton to cotthn that is not in fected.* For spraying: The top and under side should be thoroughly spray ed for some distance around with' kerosene emulsion made as follows: One ounce of laundry soap dissolved in one quart of hot water, add one quart of kerosene, beat thoroughly, add this to 5 gallons of water and spray. If car« is exercised, in destroying the source of infection we should not have any damage from the Red Spider. Watch for the ^oll Weevil, picking up the first punctured squares.
