effectiveness of "Kiltone." A
variation of the ground sprayer
is employed for airplane spraying.
Mr. Smith says the chief advan-
tage of the new method over past
practices of insect control lies in
its practicability for early pre-
ventive treatment of cotton
against insects. Unlike cotton
dusts which are blown away or
washed off by rain, the liquid
spray sticks to the plant and has
a residual effect.
The early treatment (just after
chopping) requiring two to three
applications, seven to ten days
apart, keeps insects from getting
a start and provides continued
protection. Where insect control
has not been practiced, field tests
indicate that yields may be dou-
bled by the use of “Kiltone,” Mr.
Smith says. Substantial gains in
yield may be expected also where
other methods of control have
been used in the past.

New Insecticide
Used on Cotton
A new all-purpose, cotton in-
secticide combined with a newly
developed sprayer that for the
first time permits low-gallonage
treatment of cotton for insect con-
trol holds promise of doubling the
yield for many local cotton farm-
ers.
According to Frank Smith, man-
ager of the local Sherwin-Wil-
liams company branch, the new
product called “Kiltone” is spe-
cially formulated liquid water-
mixable concentrate that com-
bines toxaphene (chlorinated cam-
phene) and DDT. It works with
maximum effectiveness against
all major cotton pests—bollwee-
vil, bollworms, fleahopper, leaf-
worm, thrips, grasshoppers, stink
bug; army worm, lygus and other
plant bugs.
Besides its use on cotton, “Kil-
tone” also is highly effective for
insect control on tobacco, cabbage,
onions, beans, potatoes and pea-
nuts, Mr. Smith reports.

Devil” sprayer for use on tractors

Local Ranger
Speaks to Lions
Lewis Rigler, local state ranger,
was speaker at the Lions club
Monday evening.
Mr. Rigler’s subject concerned
“Hot Check Passers and Check
Forgers.” His information was
valuable to businessmen as he
told the members of the club how
check-passers and forgers oper-
ated— also what businessmen
should do if they received a hot
check.
He said many businessmen take
pay off of checks when the
“passer” is caught rather than let
the law take its course. “If more
of the law breakers were given
jail sentences, there would be less
crimes of this nature committed
in Cooke county, he concluded.
In a business session presided
over by President S. John Wylie,
it was voted by club-authorizing
Chairman Robert Blount, of sight
and conservation, to buy eye
glasses for a needy school boy.
The program for the evening
was in charge of Lions A. G. Bal-
lenger and Robert Aughtry.
Lions A. W. Wells and Richard
Harp are program chairmen for
next week’s meeting.
