S ' . anil bualneat onranltattona in attempt-
. y i ta to control the boll weevil In Texas
Unit to Texas chamber of corns
officials.
This season Is declared by them to
hm the most Ideal season of many
J.ears for putting control Into opera-
tion by early plowing.
"This method of control is now ad-
vocated by the best soil weevil spe-
cialists of the South and Is predicated
apon the following four facts concern-
ins the Insect." declared J. Z. Jeorgs
manager of the chamber "first the
boH weevil feeds on nothing but parts
f green cotton plants; secondly the
Boll weeril lays Its egs and grows to'
maturity In nothing but living fnrma
f bolls of the cotton plsnts: thirdly
.pie boll weevil while Inactive during
the winter can live several months
without food but as shown by repeat-
ed experiments cannot live longer
than six days without food while ac-
tive: fourth it cannot at will Income
inactive but becomes so only when
Lnnelled br Increasingtr cold weather
roughly speaking at a time corres-
ponding to our first frost."
Infestation in the spring is exceed-
ingly light Mr. Ceorge pointed out.
hut rapidly beconvs heavy because of
the insects' great reproductive powers
and the short tim required for It to
pass through one generation. Spring
Infestation is initiated from the few
adult weevils that successfully pass
the winter ia Spanish moss and bs-
heath trash along fsflces snd ditches
he said. Only a very small percentage
of the insects going into winter quar-
ters In . i rh places are able to suc-
cessfully piss ths winter and practi-
cally all the Individuals constituting
this small percentage are those with
the greatest vitality when cold weather
In the fall forced them into winter
quarters.
"Early killing of the cotton plant
accomplishes two things in boll weevil
control: first It deprives the weevil
of a breeding place so that the ones
entering winter quarters are more or
less awed: secondly. It deprives all the
weevils of food either by starving
them before cold weather allows them
to eater wlater qoartre. or forcing
them la to such quarters hungry and
In a weakened condition.' Mr. George
added.
"To accomplish roll weevil destruc
tion la the fall it is necessary to kill
the cotton - plant root and stalk and
keep It killed during tke fall and win-
ter. Merely pasturing will not accom-
plish this unless there are sufficient
animals to consume the top growth
within "three or fo-ur days."
Tke campaign win be carried on
throughout the year consisting of
cleanup campaigns In ths autumn
burning of hedge rows and other hiber-
nating places of the wrevll during the
winter and poisoning and other meth-
ods of control during the growing sea-
son. Tke committee which will carry out
the campaign comprises J. A. Smith

In return for the Immense cost the
great amount of labor and engineer
Ins involved and the II year estimat
ed ss the minimum time required to
build the gigantic bridge. Corigreaaunan
Ackerman presented many advantages
to be derived.
Automobiles and motor trucks would
be able to cross from New -Tork to
New Jersey In a few minutes Instead
of being held up for hours as Is now
the case.
A saving In the cost of delivery and
s certainty or supplies fuel food and
other necessities to the metropolis
would ensue.
Reduction In shipping costs to and
from the port of New Tork and con-
sequent benefit to the nation's com-
merce would follow.
Rail Connections.
Through rail connections from the
north and south east and west would
be possible as railroad tracks would
occupy one level of the structure thus
giving greater speed and convenience
of travel with elimination of some un-
necessary costs
Besides allowing; for greater busi-
ness expansion snd home building in
New Jersey and along the Hudson the
bridge would offer in time of war an
important element of safety and effi-
ciency. The history of the efforts to con-
struct the bridge goes as far back si
1S0 when an act Incorporating a com-
pany to build the bridge was ap-
proved. No Cost te Government
The bridge Is not to cost the federal
government a cent It la to be erected
by the same engineers who built the
Hell Gste arch bridge with finances
raised by the States of New Tork and
New Jersey. The only federal partl.-l-pation
is In authorising Its erect Ian
over tide water which is under gov
ernment control.
Litigation injunction and other fac-
tors have prevented actual construc-
tion since 1890. Work was started on
the JTew Jersey foundations in HM
but persons living in the vlrlnitv
stopped work with sn Injunction com-
piainiius or the noises of drills and

For the present structure there win
be If deep foundations of M feet dlam'
eter from 1M to Mf feet below the sur
face to rock which alone will require
several years to. work. Many ether
new problems must be met. The bridge
will hang 1U feet above the water
level la the center to allow the pas
sage of vessels. The solid rook forma
tions at the terminal points win give
sufficient depth for the strongest
foundations. The New Tork terminal
Is in a most direct Use with the

Correslon Ores teat Enemy.
Corrosion Is the greatest enemy of
teel In this climate: nature Is forever
trying to change steel back to Its an-
cellar. Iron. Therefore the protection
from the weather. The painting of the
Firth of Forth bridge requires a per
petual force of 10 painters year In and
year out After reaching one end of
the bridge in from three to four years.
the painters return to the other end
for the next coat to save the struc
ture from corrosion. In the Hudson
river bridge that force of men would
have to be 10 times larger the ex-
pense of maintenance would be enor-
mous; but with the steel protected
mere would remain only I per cent
exposed to the weather.
The four cables which are to bear
the burden of the great weight will be
11 feet la diameter. They will be pro-
tected by bronse shells.
Two-Deck Floorway.
The floorway win be In two decks.

four surface tracks and a roadway
two and one-half times the width of
Fifth a venae. The upper deck will
form a fire and waterproof roof over
the lower deck which wll provide If
railroad tracks each capable of carry-
ing the heaviest trains and locomo
tives.
The greatest weight which the
towers and cables will have to carry
will be the 40000 tons of the suspend-
ed spans: compared with this the lire
toads wUl be inconsiderable.
The bridge ordinarily never will be
called upon to carry at one time more
than one-fourth the density and max
imum loads for which It was designed:
but It. was necessary to provide for a
transportation capacity and trackage
about equal to that of all tour highway
bridges over the East river combined.
