TO STOP THE ADVANCE
OF THE ARMY WORM
Plowcd Furrowa and Poison for New
Outbreak of Pest That Threatens
Fields of Wheat, Oats, Corn,
Timothy and Blue Grass.—
Lawna in Washington, D.C ., ..
Overrun.
WASHINGTON, D. C., August 7.—
Letters, telephone messages and indi-
vidual callers have been soliciting aid
from the U. S. Department of Agriculv
lure to stop the advance of the hordes
of army worms that threaten their
fields of wheat, oats, corn. timothy,
blue grass and other grasses. There
seems to be a general outbreak of this
pest throughout the North, east of the
Rocky Mountains. These worms are
emerging from eggs laid by moths that
apparently swarmed up from the
Southwest. Great numbers of these
moths have been noticed in the vicin-
ity of Washington during the past
month. hundreds of their broken wings
having been seen near the Union sta-
tion. lawns‘in the capital are being
overrun by this pest.
The army worm is a smooth, striped
caterpillar about an inch and a quar-
ter long and a quarter of an inch in
diameter. it is rather dark in ap-
pearance. While normally it feeds by
night and hides by day, not being gen-
erally noticed, as soon as it has in-
creased to such a number that its food
supply falls short, it starts to travel
and becoming bolder. feeds both night
and day. The moth from which this
'worm hatches is brown with a white
spot on the center of each fore wing.
it measures about an inch and one-
half from wing to wing.
How Worms May Be Destroyed.
if the worms have not yet attacked
a field the most practical way- to keep
them out is to plow furrows in front
of them, throwing the furrow in the
direction toward which they are tray.
ellng. The worms will fall into the
.furrowand when this is full they may
be killed either by dragging a log
back and forth in the furrow or by
destroying the worms in holes previ.
lously dug at intervals of 20 feet in the
bottom of the furrow. Kerosene pour-
ged on them in the holes will destroy
them.
if the worms are already in the field
the following mixture which will 7at-
tract the worms and destroy theni
should be spread about.
One pound of paris green (poison-
ous)
Fifty pounds of wheat bran.
Juice of onehalf dozen oranges.
Bring this mixture to a stiff dough
by the use of diluted molasses and seat-
‘ter it amongst the worms. Care
should be taken to keep this dough
from children or domestic animals.
Prompt action to prevent the worms
from infesting a field is much better
bthan later ei‘lorts to attempt to kill
horn in the grain. Once the caterpil-
lars have infested a field, the measures
necessary to destroy them may seri-
ously hurt or even destroy the crop.
The worms at first are almost al-
ways localised in some definite breed-
ing place in the field and immediate
efforts should be taken to eradicate
them in these small areas before they
have had time to spread. The normal
breeding place of the army worm is
in rank grass, such as is usually found
along'the edges of swamps or in spots
of pasture land that have been over-
fedtillsed. They are practically never
found in swamps. becauae the worm
needs a reasonably dry place in which
to breed.
Clean cultivation, rotation of crops,
cleaning up of fencercornors, close
pasturage. and thefburing over of
waste grass land in the spring or fall,
are good measures to prevent a recur:
rence of the army worm.
What To Do for Lawns.
For small areas like lawns and pri-
vate gPounds. the poison bait men
tioned above may be used. Equally
7 efficient is the application of a. spray
of one pound arsenate of load dissolv-
ell in 25 gallons of water. If the pow-
dered arsenate of lead is more easily
obtainable, one pound of this may be
ed on the grass where the worms are
feeding. It must be remembered that
arsenate of lead is a deadly poison to
1 men and animals, as well as to army
worms.
NOT A STEADY JOB.
A certain man who was recently re
elected to a position that he had held
for many years met a man on the
street who congratulated him on his
continued good fortune. and the man
replietr: .
“Yes, but it can’t always last. I’ll
have to give up some day. I feel a
great deal like a man I -'knew who
varied. in one place for forty years.
