he general run of the cotiver-
| satiAn in this community at this
particular time is the boll weevil.
Every vtuan yon meet asks the
question have you any boll wee-
vil up vobr way? are they doing
you anv larticurar damage? II
you shoul^janswer in the affirma-
time, then h* has a remedy by
" ll lc^ ^otl c^n exterminate them.
He has never tried ,t but recom-
mends it as avdead shot. Again
you hear men discussing the origin
of the bug, comending that he a
native of Mexico, but has ioi»i-
grated from their land of nativity
to this country. . But it is tb*.
writer’s opinion that the weevil has*
been here from time .immemorial,
for^I can remember playing with *
the \f0y ■tie identical bug when
I was a s^Uf Joy, and I am not
considered a very young man now.
I noticed the same bug boring into
cotton squares and young bolls
when I was in my teens. It’s true
that they are more plentiful now
than then, but that is easily ac-
counted for, for then the weevil
subsisted mostly upon acorns and
other mast. There was no stock
law then and hogs run at large
and kept them pretty well cleaned
up; consequently they did but lit-
or no damage to cotton. So when
tin stock law went in force bogs
were put in prison and the weevil
had nothing to hold them in check
and according to the laws of nature
they multiplied very rapidly, so
much so that the acoru crop was
not large enough for them to sub-
sist upon ajud as a result they flock-
ed to the cotton fields. As every
one has a remedy to exterminate
them so-has the writer. Follow-
ing is the remedy: Have land
tiers fence their fields hog proof,
' let everybody for the next five
rs devote their attention to rais-
ing hogs and corn aud we arc sure
1 that after that time cotton can be
ra.sed without fears of its being
|4istroyed by the weevil. But it
would be as hard a matter to con-
vince land owners of this fact as it
would be to convince them that
Wm. Bryau will be our next presi-
dent. * ” *
Crops iu this section are not very
promising. Corn is cut to about
half what it promised three weeks
ago, though a good r|in would
benefit it even now. Cotton is un-
certain, though it is fruiting up
nicely. The dry weather we are
having seems to agree with it
wonderfully. The weevils are
knocking off some fruit but not
like they would if we had a wet
summer. Some of the tenants are
gatheriug and burning * their
punctured squares and it is a capi-
tal idea and if every one would do
this we might save the crop of cot-
ton. though some are indiffierent
about the matter and are letting
the weevil have full sway.
