The job of measuring 1959
cotton acreage in Bell County
will begin soon now and as in
the past operators of cotton
farms are asked to please as-
sist the reporter in measuring
the farm when he visits the
farm. All cotton will be measur-
ed with a steel tape and crop re-
porters will not have an assist-
ants consequently it will help
expedite the job if the opera-
tor will take the short time re-
quired and assist in the meas-
urement. The 1959 regular cotton allot-
ment in Bell County amounts to
65068 acres. There are a total
of 2691 cotton farms in Bell
County of this number 342 re
leased their allotments to other
producers in the county. Conse-
uently there are a total of
2349 cotton farms on which
there are allotment in 1959. Out
of the 2349 a total of 475 sel-
ected choice B which means
their regular allotment was in-
creased by 40 percent.
If any producer has rented a
cotton farm after March 16th
the deadline to select choice A
or B he should get in touch with
the county office immediately.
This is important since the
choice on the newly rented farm
may have some effect on other
cotton farms which the pro--ducer
had under his operation
prior to March 16th.

have not yat boon received how-
ever they are expected in the
near future.
After a farm is measured the
producer will be notified of the
measured acreage. If the farm
is overplanted depending on the
choice applicable to the farm
the producer will have 15 days
to adjust the planted acreage
bnck to the allotment. The State
Committee has set a standard
charge of $4.00 per farm plus
$2.00 for each plot over one for
checking excess acreage dis-
posed of.
t
Producers with acreage in the
Conservation Reserve are re-
minded that a grass cover must
be established on the land des-
ignated. Positively no grazing
is allowed on the contratcted
acreage for the duration of the
contract.
Producers found knowingly
violating this provision can ex-
nnnf. forfeiture of their annual
payment plus a fine of 50 per-
cent of what would otherwise
be payable under the contract.
Noxious weeds such as sun-
flmvprs and cockle burrs are to
be controlled by mowing or
spraying as often as necessary
to keep the area from becom-
ing a source of spreading nox-
ious weed seed.

Farmers are reminded about
the Blackland Field Day at the
Blackland Experiment Station
Friday May 22 9:30 a. m. Crop
production and conservation
practices will be the theme of
this event.
One of the highlights will be
helicopter spraying of a 20 acre
cotton field. This part of the
program may be of special in-
terest to pecan producers in the
area who are considering heli-
copter spraying of pecan or-
chards. The helicopter is being
furnished by the Rogers Cotton
Seed Company of Waco.
A fast moving two hour pro-
gram is scheduled which will
touch on many of the latest de-
velopments coming to agricul-
ture in the future.
Chinch bugs are on the move
in the eastern part of Bell
County. This pest is attacking
both grain sorghum corn and
cotton. The chinch bug adult is
dark colored with light colored
designs on its back and wings.
Prominent antennas are also
characteristic of this bug.
The latest chinch bug damage
has ben reported by D. E. Bren-
ek of Oenaville on- grain sor-
ghum. Control measures include two
quarts per acre of Toxaphene-
DDT or 1 quart per acre of Al-
drin Dieldrin 6r Heptachlor.
Lighter dosages do not give the
needed control.
Bob McGuire of Belton has
about 50 acres of grain sor-
ghum infested with aphids
however control measures are
not recommended. The natural
enemies of the aphid are build-
ing up rapidly and they will
take over the aphid population.
Aphids on grain sorghum
feed in the leaf whorl of the
plant and it is nearly impos-
sible to get good results with
chemicals. If you have aphids
in your sorghum the beneficial
insects should take care of the
situation soon.

Now is the time to start con-
trol on bagworms which attack
ornamental and fruit trees. The
worms have just hatched and
have started forming bags.
They are easy to control before
the worms become fully grown.
Recommended materials include
lead arsenate Toxaphene and
Malathion. There is no success-
ful chemical control after the

Barrier White of Belton re-
ports good results from spray-
ing with Malathion.
Farmers traveling the road
between Troy and Bcllfalls can
see the results of the pasture
spraying demonstration held on
the Jim Redden farm in April.
The results can be seen with-
out stopping or getting out of
the car. The area just east of
the Redden entrance was spray-
ed with 24-D Amine while the
area just west of the entrance
road was not sprayed.
The treated area is relatively
free of weeds while the un-
treated area has plenty of un-
desirable growth. The cost for
spraying was fifty cents per
acre for the material.

ed to watch news sources for

Results of controlling winter
grain mites last winter can be
seen on the Donald Aycock
farm. He treated nearly 200
acres of oats early last winter
with Parathion at the rate of
one pint per acre.
.After spraying the oats pro-
vided a lot of grazing for his
sheep; and he now has pros-
pects of a good grain harvest.
Most of the oats would have
been lost without the spraying
according to Aycock.
Edward Schmidt of White
Hall invites farmers in his com-
munity to watch the grain sor-
ghum demonstration located
near his house. The hybrids are
labeled which will enable oth-
ers to see a comparison of the
various hybrids.
