ARMY WORM
i DESTROYING COTTON
Pest Becomes More General Ov
er County and Is Eating All
Top Crop.
The prospects for a top crop
of cotton, which have been re
garded as excellent since the
breaking of the drouth early in
1 August, are declining every
day, as the depredations of the
' army worm become more gen
| eral
11 From almost every scetion of
the county have come reports of
tfie army worm; at first his in
jury to the crop was light, but
now his destruction of squares,
leaves and small bolls is cut
ting down materially the yield
of the county. The farmers
would be putting up a hard fight
against the pest ordinarily, but
with no cotton market, it looks
useless to them to spend more
money in saving a crop, whose
value is questionable.
| Jake Phillips on the Island re
ports that since Friday, the ar
my worm has practically cut
his yield from a half bale to the
acre to one-tjurd or one-fourth
bale or a loss of 20 to 30 bales
in 150 acres lof cotton on his
farm.
i Now the worms are invading
Dutchman West’s field and other
! neighbors, and the story of this
j spreading of the pest comes
from most every part of the
| county.
