There are silgns that a similar panic may occur in parts of this state unless means are tak en to reassure the people and point out a safe course for agriculural operations I under bll weevil conditions. To this end a group of practical farmers and bunsiness men in cooperation with the ex tension bureau have studied the situation in the light of their own experience arid that of other states and the accumulated exiperimental results of governmental a gecs-and beg leave to present thfe fol 'lowing suggestions and 'program as one which will meet the situation, preventing demnoralization and cenabling our farming and business interests to continue profit.. able op)erations. It is esperially important to prevent our p~eop~le from stampeding into new and untried fields of agriculture in which they will fail for lack of information and experience.

Them weevils should also be picked from the plant in the early stages and as soon as punctured squares arc noticed they should be picked up twice per week until mid-summer.

EXPDRTS AVADANJf, In every county the farmers should utilize fully the government farm ex ports. No 01ne can advise ittelligently and correctly just what each indlividual farmer should do.

A miost important factor for success undler boll wveevil conditions is hard and inteiligent work. The slipshod farmer will 'be out of business in a few years amid only those whlo work hard and use intel ligent methods will remainl. In all erops on'ly varieties of .proven adaptability to the section and those which make a 'pro duclt of the highest money value as well as of good ,production per acre should ibe used.
