It has. hit toe Empire State building in New York city as many as 12 times in 20 minutes, and as often as 50 times a year.

The boll weevil threatened more devastation this spring in the south since it first invaded this country, agricultural experts reported. The onslaught was attributed to two mild winters in a row that number spawned a record-breakin- g of the pests. In the moist regions of the Gulf Coast and in Texas, where an early drought was followed by excessive rains, farmers had difficulty poisoning toe weevil by airplane and other methods. Early reports indicated the Texas crop was heavily infested. Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia and the Carolina s reported the worst sprinkling of the pest In years, some the worst in history. The early counts also were heavy m Arkansas and west Tennessee. Tennessee, Arkansas, Georgia, and parts of other states had several hot, dry weeks. Farmers took advantage of the break to pour on the poison. Released by WNU Features All OUNCE OF PREVENTION WACO, TEX.
