ADULT MAGGor I.ARyA An Fec

ADULT MAGGoT. LAIsvA AND EGG
ent varieties of insects, the "fiy" of one
locality being the 'sweevil" of another, it
is little wonder that farmers get very
much mixed and confused in attempting
to identify the exact cause of their dis
aster. The Hessian fly is the one most
talked about, but it does not do all the
harm it gets credit for. Numbered with
different flies that affect wheat, but to a
less degree and in "A different manner, is
the wheat stem maggot. Following are
statements made, with illustrations, by
Professor F. NJ Webster. of the Pardue
university. to the Indiana state board of
agriculture, ON the wheat stem maggot:
The eggs of the wheat stem maggot
are deposited on the young wheat plants
III the fall, and the maggots destroy the
tender stem by cutting off the central
portion just above the bulb. The Larvae
pass the winter in the plant, pupating in
spring. and emerging as adults two
weeks later or during the latter part of
May. These adults soon afterward de-
post eggs upon the plants. the Larvae
from them working in the straw just
above the upper joint, thereby causing
the upper portion of the stem. including
the head, to wither and dry up just prior
to harvest. This brood of larve pass
through the same transformations as
their progenitors, the adult flies emery
ing this time during July, and it has
heretofore been supposed that it was
these flies that deposited their eggs on the
young grain in the field. This suppose
ton Professor Webster pronounces in
Rock Island daily Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1886-1893, 1890-12-06

correct, and says there is an intervening
brood which originates largely at least
in volunteer wheat. This he considers a
matter of Importance to the wheat grow
er, for if these insects do originate in
volunteer wheat, the plan presents itself
of sowing small strip somewhere on
the farm and letting them deposit their
eggs therein, blowing it up before the
flies emerge
The same measure Will apply equally
well to both the Hessian fly and the
wheat stem maggot, and if these two
pests can be induced to deposit their
eggs just when the farmer wishes them
to, he certainly can afford to furnish
them some inducement, and with good
pillow and few hours time place these
eggs where they will cause him no more
trouble
In the first cut are illustrated A, the
adult wheat stem maggot much en-
larged. In the same cut are shown,
greatly enlarged, c, egg of the same; D,
larvae or maggot of same. and E, pupari-
um of the same. In the second cut are
shown the position of the maggot in full
grown straw; A, the effect of the maggot
on young wheat; also location of the
same in young wheat at B.
