WEDNESDAY, JULY 10, 1957

, TOBACCO ADVISORY BOARD

Commissioner

Bulletin.



abe of counties in 3
y of tobacco crop

mery for this Board of Governors to set
the opening date for tobacco markets. At
times however, the date set by this board
has not always been favored by the Geor-
gia tobacco industry.

In setting up the Georgia Tobacco Ad-
visory Board to assist in selecting the
most suitable date for the opening of
Georgia markets the Georgia Legislature
gave me, as Commissioner of Agriculture
and chairman of the committee, the legal
authority to set the date for the opening
of Georgia tobacco markets if the date

set by the Bright Belt Board of Governors
-is not satisfactory to the Georgia tobacco
industry.

On Friday, June 21, the Georgia To-
bacco Advisory Board met in Alma fol-

~ lowinga survey of the states tobacco crop
-and recommended July 18 as the most
desirable date to open Georgia tobacco
markets.

A delegation from Georgia consisting
of Cecil Attaway of Cochran, representing
me and the Department of Agriculture,
_ Albert Brannen of Statesboro, president
of the Georgia-Florida Warehouse Asso-
ciation and State Rep. Bill Lanier of
Candler County met with the Bright Belt
Board of Governors at. Myrtle Beach, S.
-C. on Tuesday June 25, and recommended
July 19 as the most desirable date for the
opening of Georgia tobacco markets.

The importance of the Georgia delega-
tions recommendations in the light of the
-states crop conditions was apparently not
fully realized by the Bright Belt group
which set the date of July 23 for the open-
-ing of Georgia-Florida tobacco markets.

As a result of the unsuitable date
set by the Bright Belt Board of Gov-
ernors, I called an emergency meet-
ing of the Georgia Tobacco Advisory
Board in Macon Friday, June 28.

_ After hearing reports from the com-
mittee and after receiving a deluge of tel-
egrams and telephone calls from farmers,
officials of the Georgia tobacco industry,
Farm Bureau organizations, and Chamber
of Commerce, I acted with the power in-
vested in me by law and set July 18 as.
the opening date for Georgia tobacco
markets.

Acting within the power granted me
by Law I wired Mr, Fred Royster, direc-
tor of the Bright Belt Association advising
him of my action and asking that his as-



_.Georgia flue cured tobacco markets are

Scientists Seek Ways
To Stop Boll Weevil

Boll Weevil are getting tough, accord-
ing to Agricultural Research, a publica-
tion of the United States Department of a
Agriculture.

Ways to control the boll weevil, now
resistant to chlorinated hydrocarbons in
some areas, are being sought by USDA
and State scientists in both basic and Ls
plied research.

The Agricultural Research Service
(ARS), Cotton Insect Research Labora-
tory at Baton Rouge: La., is cooperating
with the Louisiana Agricultural Experi-
ment Station in a basic approach. At the
same time, ARS and other state experi-
ment stations are keeping one step ahead
of the insectwith new insecticides to re- |
place chemicals no longer effective.

Time was when the chlorinated hydro-
carbons were generally effective against
all boll weevils. But in 1955, entomolo-
gists found the insect had developed re- |

' gistance to these insecticides in some sec-

tions of Louisiana, and the southern delta
of Mississippi, and parts of southern Ark-
ansas.

The resistance was carried over in
weevils that emerged from hibernation in
1956, with considerable spreading in Lou-
isiana and some increases in Mississippi
and Arkansas. Resistance also occured on
a few farms in one county in Texas and
on one farm in South Carolina. Endrin
was ineffective on the South Carolina
farm after 14 applications.

Although the boll weevil showed re-

sistance to chlorinated hydrocarbons in

1956 in some local areas, control of re-
sistant weevils was obtained with calcium
arsenate and certain phosphorous insec-

ticides methyl parathion, malathion,

and EPN. The chlorinated hydrocarbons
were still used effectively in all areas of
the boll weevil belt where resistance had
not yet been encountered,

Last December, entomologists recom-

mended use of a new phosphate-Guthion.
Tests are already underway at Baton

_ Rouge incooperation with the Louisiana

station to determine how long it takes boll
weevils to become resistant to Guthion.
At the same time, work is also in pro-
gress on locating still other insecticides
in preparation for the possible day when
this new insecticide may no longer be
effective Much screening of new insecti-

cides is conducted at the Texas Agricul- -

tural Experiment Station, College Station.

Scientists believe this search for new
and more powerful insecticides may be

_ only a stopgap until a new and better ap-
_ proach is found through more basis re-
_ search. Special efforts are underway at
_ College Station to discover effective in-
-secticides that the boll weevil
overcomethat is, chemicals with modes
of different from chlorinated hydrocar-

cannot

bons and phosphates. Ways to block or
resistance are also under investigation at

_ Baton Rouge.

The advent of toxaphane and BHC in

1946 and 1947, and later of aldrin, diel-

drin, endrin and heptochlor, was a mile-
stone in the control of boll weevils. De-
velopment if low-gallon-age, low- pres-

_ sure sprayers represented another mile-

stone. And a new early-season insecticide
timing schedule provided more ammuni-
tion against cotton insects in many areas.

Some $50 million worth of insecticides
are purchased annually to control cotton
insects, and another $20 million is spent
to apply them. ~

Cultural practices play an important
part in reducing insects. Early destruc-
tion of stalks in southern Texas helps con-

Assisting us in this endeavor were
Georgia Senators Dick Russell and Her-
man Talmadge who wired Royster point-

ing out the importance of a July 18 open-

ing and requesting that the associations
previous action be reconsidered.

On Monday, July 1, the Bright Associ-
ations sales committee held a special meet-
ing and after studying the problem agreed
with us on a July 18 date for the opening
of Georgia tobacco markets.

I am grateful for the Bright Belt As-
sociation sales committees action which
reunited the flue cured belt in a more uni-
form and orderly marketing season. I am

sure that this action will result in a more |

profitable marketing season for tobacco
growers.

Farm Accidents Kill
14,000 People A Year

Many of the accidents that kill 14,000
farm people each yearthats the average
toll for 1950-55are caused by unsafe
practices and hazardous conditions that
could be corrected, according to the U.S.
Department of Agriculture. eo se

Some grim figures are reported in
Fatal Farm Accidents in the United
States, 1949-53 (ARS-43-50), just pub-
lished by USDAs Agricultural Research
Service.

Farm work accidents killed an aver-
age of 3,900 farm people each year from
1950 through 1955, according to Nation-
al Safety Council figures cited in the
USDA report. Farm work mishaps injured
another 321,600 each year. Fatal accidents
in farm homes took 3,300 lives and in-

jured 548,300. Motor vehicle accidents

killed 6,000 farm people and hurt an ad-
ditional 210,000. Off-farm accidents not
involving motor vehicles killed 1,130
members of farm families and. injured



trol the boll weevil and pink bollworm

the next season.

These developments still do not pre-
vent heavy losses from insects in some
areas. As potential per-acre yields in-
crease, so do the insect problems.

Cotton is grown today on improved
land thats produciing .more luscious
pone more attractive to insects over a
onger period of time.

Farmers have become more insect con-
scious and realize the need for more ef-
fective tools. Entomologists are racing to
find new ways to help cotton growers
fight the battle.
