Boll weevil convention endorses Mally plan for eradication
At Brenham Texas the Boll Weevil convention with about 300 delegates from eleven counties endorsed Prof. F W Malley of A and M college plan to exterminate the pest. The program calls for grazing off cotton and burning rubbish, trapping weevils in early maturing rows, spraying with a molasses arsenic lead solution, and gathering and burning squares every ten days. Sprayers with bull weevil attachments and knapsack sprayers are recommended, with state support urged.
