BOLL WEEVIL SURVIVAL
ABOUT 14-YEAR AVERAGE
A comparison of this year’s
boll weevil survival records with
records for the past 14 years in
dicates that the number of survi
ving weevils this spring is about
the same as for the 14-year
period, according to a statement
from Dr. M. D. Farrar, head.
Entomology Department, S. C. Ex
periment Station. He says ap
proximately one-fourth as many
weevils are alive this spring as
were alive at the same time in
the spring of 1950.
He reports that ground trash
examinations for surviving wee
vils have been made at Clemson;
at the Edisto Experiment Station,
Blackville; and at the Pee Dee
Experiment Station, Florence.
The records for the Pee Dee
Station made by the Bureau of
( Entomology, USDA, include rec
ords for the nine South Caro-
; lina counties examined each year.
“Trash collections examined
. show that boll weevils have sur-
I vived in all sections of the state,”
he continues. “Entomologists at
j the three stations predict about
■ a normal emergence of adult wee
vils in all parts of the state.
These weevils have survived even
though the average temperature
for South Carolina from Novem
ber 1950 through March 1951
was lower than for the two pre
vious winters and w-eather con
ditions throughout the winter
were generally unfavorable for
the survival of cotton insects.
Weather in the Pee Dee area
was w’armer, thus killing less hib
ernating Weevils than in other
parts of the state,” he adds.

When a car or trailer is being
packed for a trip afield, one of
the first pieces of camping equip
ment to be stowed within easy
reach is a camera. But fre
quently. carrying a camera and
all its accessories into the field
is a nuisance.
Commercially-made gadget bags
of leather are handy for carrying
photographic accessories, and
some sportsmen have even built
plywood compartments in small
suitcases and shoulder packs for
toting their equipment. These
safeguard the equipment enroute
but often are hard to get into
quickly.
But now camera expert Ormal
Snrungman reports that a friend
of ills has hit upon a new carry-
all idea for outdoor photogra
phers ... a vest.
Field photograpners have long
been annoyed by their inability
to keep camera accessories and
extra film where they will be
bandy when most needed. The
small gadget bag is all right Jf
you don’t mind something dan
gling at your side all the time.
However, the carryall vest has
advantages over the gadget bag
for practicability convenience,
comfort and capacity. It is es
pecially adapted to carying film
holders and accessories for the
larger cameras—2 1-4x3 1-4 to
4x5.
Patterned along the lines of a
hunting jacket the chief feature
of this utility vest is Its numer
ous pockets. The two large in
side front pockets will carry at
least three film holders each. If
film packs or cut film magazines
are used, these pockets will car
ry extras.
The four outside front pockets
are handiest for the small, fre
quently used items, such as the
exposure meter without case,
filters, notebook, pencil and
steel measuring tape. The dou
ble back of the vest provides
the largest pocket, with open
ings at both sides, for carrying
an extra lens or two film, flash
bulbs, focusing cloth and lens
hood.
This gadget vest is particular-

BEFORE FIRE STRUCK, this was a green and growing
forest. It was a place for pleasure where people pic
nicked, hiked and hunted. It was also a place for work
where men made their livings harvesting and growing
trees for lumber, plywood and paper. Each year
forest fires, most of them man-caused, destroy enough
wood to build 86 thousand homes. You can help halt
that loss by always being careful with fire in the woods.

CHOCOLATES
112 ACRES OF WOODLAND
BURNED IN PAST
NINE MONTHS
In. the past 9 months 6,116
forest fires burned more than
112,000 acres of woodlands in
South Carolina, according to
State Forester C. H. Flora. Ho
stated that these fires caused a
loss of more than a million dol
lars.
Mr. Flora pointed out that the
terrific toll of loss and destruc
tion caused by forest fires is
often followed by severe insect
damage to trees weakened by
forest fires. He urged farmers
and other woodland owners to
have a forester examine any
woodlands that were badly burn
ed this spring. Early detection
of Insect damage, and the prompt
application of control measures
can save many acres of valuable
woodlands from additional dam
age by insects following in the
wake of forest fires.
