Cotton Dusting Is An Aid In War On Boll Weevil
Raleigh reports that Ernest and Henry Green of Youngville are examples of cotton dusting against boll weevils. Entomologist C. H. Brannon notes Ernest dusted last year, yielding 16 126 pounds from 15 acres and 13 bales, while Henry produced seven light bales on roughly twice the acreage. Ernest found a heavily-infested field behind the house and switched to calcium arsenate dusting, estimating 3,300 pounds of seed cotton from that patch. Henry plans to dust this year and both brothers weigh fertilizer versus dusting in their pest-control choices.
