It would be as sensible to kill the
cattle In South Texas, in the attempt
to etarv eout the cattle tick, as to pre-
vent the planting of cotton, in order
to starve out the pink boll worm The
cow tick is not entirely dependent on
the cow for a living Neither Is the
so-called pink boll worm dependent
upon the cotton plant for his exist-
ence.—Brazoria County Pink Boll

and perhaps has been with us in one
form or another always. The boll
weevil is doing a million times more
damage to the cotton crops of the
South than the pink boll work ever
