That the average man profits little by the experience of others is thor-, otighlv demonstrated by the boll weevil situation in South Carolina. The advent of the boll v. eevil has been as j persistently preached by the Kxten-I sion Service of South Carolina as the \ coming of judgment day has been' preached by ministers of the gospel, i Notwithstanding this warning of the past several years, 90 per cent of the farmers of South Carolina are unprepared and as a consequence are suffering great financial loss and many will be ruined ultimately. In some localities they will not average over one or two bale to the plow; over great areas not over 20 to 30 per cent of a normal crop. Do not understand that I am advocating the entire elimination of cotI ton from our agricultural program. I There are some farmers in South Carolina who by practicing intelligent : cultural methods are growing cotton profitably under boll weevil conditions, i notably Mr. D. R. Coker of Hartsville | with whom I recently spent a day. On 575 r-ci-os this year, he expects to I make 150 to 475 bales of long staple cotton. The following are his methods and are generally recommended ! by men experience in handling the boll weevil problem:? 1. Plow under stalks immediately after cotton has been picked, first using stalk cutter. At this same time bum off all ditch banks and every conceivable place where the weevil may hibernate. 2. Make early and thorough preparation of the soil for early planting, and use early maturing varieties of seed. 3. Apply a high grade fertilizer, using 600 pounds per acre, with a side dressing of nitrate of soda, 100 pounds per acre. 4. Provide frequent and rapid cultivation of the crop. 5. Pick up and burn squares at the very first evidence or indication of I $ TIi at rs the G< >s and starts, puts I weather. Unless // is frittered away /J The alternative of uj ; means wasting a ^ ble in gasoline he- w ; s.

IStfe MPANY If, the presence of the weevil. 6. Spray the plants with molasses mixture containing calcium arsenate. In connection with the fifth suggestion?about picking up and burning the squares?let me emphasize that unless this is thoroughly and frequently done little benefit can come from it. Unfortunateely it is difficult to make the average colored tenant farmer, or white farmer for that matter, appreciate the nececssitv of absolute thoroughness in this matter. Mr. Coker had men in the fields to follow up these tenants and share-croppers in order to see that the work was thoroughly done. One more point: Owing to the additional expense in growing cotton and the fact that under very unfavorabl weather conditions the weevil will thrive despite preventive measures, and owing to the further fact that the farmer must not depend entirely upon cotton as a money crop, it is not advisable to have over seven to nine acres of cotton to the plow. To meet boll weevil conditions successfully we must have a diversified agriculture with food-proff crops because of inefficient and ignorant labor. Such crops as soy beans, peanuts and tobacco should be grown, and emphasis should be placed on the production of pork by use of forage crops; also dairycows, which supply cream for the creameries that should be established, thus securing a monthly check of ready cash.
