Continu ed rains make it ideal for the weevils to multiply ard continue their de structive work. Many fanners have noted within the past' few^ days .that there does not seem to be as mary boll weevils at this time as there was two weeks ago. This I* due to the fact that the old weevils are dying very fast and the first generation of young weevils is just maturing. One farmer last week 'qund three yourg weevil* which were fully matured and ready to begin to puncture squares. Th« time is about past f° r early poisoning. Late cotton is now beginning to square very free ly. Those farmer* having small spots of old cotton should pick up all fallen squares and destroy them be cause from these rew weevils will cmetge and do much damage. Cotton which would make ore-half bale per acre or more if there were no weevil* should be poisoned with the standard dust method. Examine 100 squares in four or five different places in. each field. If the average number per 100 i* above 10 per cent it is time to begin dusting. The farmers who know the condition in their fields may perhaps not dust at all and know that they are safe while their less careful neighbors may dust when it isn't reeded and then may not dust when it is reeded and will find at the end of the season that they have a profitless dusting expense and that the boll weevil has caused much damage. When and How to Dust. (IX Apply good calcium arsenate dust form with a dusting machine or hand gun. (2) Begin dusting when 10 per cert of squares are being punctured. Begin then not before and do not wait later. (3) Dust when air Is calm and foliage is moist. Night applications usually give best results. In South Carolina most dusting is done from 6 to 10 p. m. and from 4 to 8 §. m.
