Shun Liquid Sprays for Poisoning
Boll Weevil.
A warning against liquid sprayer'
attachments to cotton poisoning machinery
is issued by B. R. Coad, director
of the boll weevil laboratory
of the United States Department of
Agricu .ure. Calcium ai senate applied
as a dust, he points out, is the
only certain means yet found for controlling
the boll weevil and any effort
at control by means of liquid
sprays is useless. Sprayer attachments
are, therefore, not only unnecessary
but are an added burden.
They increase the cost of the machinery
and make it more complicated
and difficult to operate. The liquid
spray, even if it were as effective as
dust method would be decidedly more
expensive. It would necessitate the
use of water carts, to feed the machines,
would demand an ample and
? ifki/tk io ?lAt
constant water muvu ?o
available on most farms, and in various
vays would increase the cost of
poisoiiir.g operations. Orchardists
and others who have to conduct poisoning
operations regularly are constantly
searching for poisons that
can be dusted instead of sprayed.
Cotton growers are very fortunate in
that the one really effective method
of controlling the boll weevil is the
dust method and they should not
waste time and money, Mr. Cpad
points out, in experimenting with the
expensive spray methods that farmers
in other lines are so constantly trying
to get away from.
In addition to the foregoing spraying
equipment we also find on the
market many curious devices for applying
some liquid preparation, usually
containing calcium arsenate, for
the control of the boll weevil. Some
of these are to be attached to plows,
others to cultivators, while still others
run independently. They are
usually provided with some exceedingly
simple form of tank with a
gravity flow of liquid, which either
drips on the plants or is wiped on
them by some form of brushes or
rags. Many such implements are ab~
1 --
? solutely comical, ana me uiuy s?*u
feature is the fact that some farmers
are foolish enough to purchase them.
The literature advertising these implements
promises wonderful results
and the directions given often call
for only a small fraction of a pound
of poison per acre, which is distributed
over the plants in a very irregular
manner. To expect bool weevil con.
trol from such methods is absolutely
absurd. The department specialists
have been attempting boll weevil control
with liquid applications for many
years. In these tests they use the
finest available high pressure spraying
machinery, distributing the liquid
poison over the plants in a mist form,
thus reaching absolutely every part
of the plant. Furthermore, these applications
are usually made at the
rate of 100 gallons of solution per
acre. In spite of this these spray
applications do not control the boll
weevil, and how can anyone expect
to secure benefit from the absurd
recommendations issued with some of
the Waehines now offered the farmers?
Farmers who desire more detailed
information on this subject may secure
it free of charges by writing the
Delta Laboratory, Tallulah, Louisiana.
o
GOING IT TOO HARD? ?
Overwork, worry, overeating and
lack of exercise and sleep are responsible
for much kidney trouble.
If your back aches and the kidneys
seem weak, rest up and use Doan's
Kidney Pills.
B. E. Clarkson, comer Brooks and
Jail streets, Kingstree, says: "Several
months ago my back caused no
end of trouble. It was next to impossible
for me to keep in an upright
position and I was compelled to walk
stooped over. Mornings my back was
so sore and stiff it was some time
before 1 could get around. At times
a cutting pain extended from my hips
down my limbs to my heels and it
made it difficult for me to walk. I
tried plasters and other preparations
without results but it wasn't until I
used Dean's Kidney Pills bought at
Scott's Drug Store that I found relief.
A box of Doan's helped me
greatly and my back has been felling
better than it has for months."
