Extract

In connection with the development of cotton growing within the Empire, it has been found necessary to circulate many small batches of experimental cotton seed; and as a number of these batches pass through this country, it has been deemed advisable to disinfect them against pink bollworm (Platyedra gossypiella, Snd.) and other insect pests.
