Dusting Guide for Cotton Weevils and Tobacco Referendum
County Agent G C Daniel explains that smudged weevil presence is widespread in cotton fields and that dusting is profitable only after about 10 percent of squares are punctured. Calcium arsenate, 5-6 pounds per acre, with calm dew-covered mornings yields best results, and dusting may continue if weevil numbers rise. Separately, 188163 voters, 83.3 percent turnout, backed a tobacco adjustment program. 184765 favored the plan, 8408 opposed, with a referendum guiding future measures.
