Poisoned cotton demonstration challenges growth claims
Demonstration agent Buchanan exhibited stalks of poisoned cotton at the Commercial club, planted June 7, infested with leaf worms by August 12 and poisoned August 17 with London purple. Despite worm death and scorched leaves, the cotton continued growing and forming bolls, contradicting farmers who say London purple or Paris green halt growth. The exhibit suggests other fields may show the same results.
