County Agent Notes
By WYLIE ROBERTS
Cotton stalks destroyed early
is one of the best ways known
for helping control boll weevils
and pink bollworms. The boll
weevil only feeds on cotton plants
so if his food is all destroyed, he
cannot live over the winter. ,
The use of a stalk shredder is
highly recommended since it kills
many of the insects and the
shredded residue when exposed
to the hot sun and soil will kill
many more insects.
—o—
This week is National Fire Pre-
vention Week. Theme for the
Week is "Don’t give fire a place
to start.” Every year fires destroy
about 3,000 lives in the U. S. and
tremendous property.
