The Weevil in Corn.

Recently a subscriber wrote asking
if salt mixed with corn at the time the
corn is being put away would keep
the weevil out. A correspondent dis
cusses the matter as follows: 1.-The
weevil is in the grain before the grain
is gathered. | cannot say at what
time the egg that produces the weevil
is deposited on the growing corn, but
| believe it is done about the time the
shoot appears, and I think it is done
by the little yellow and black-striped
fly that is seen in the corn about the
time it begins to tassel and shoot.
The reason | believe the fly referred
to is responsible for the weevils be-
ing in the corn is that the colder the
climate the less the weevil damages
the corn.
81 lived in Brunette county, Tex,
several years, where you seldom see
weevil in the corn. Neither did | then
see those little yellow and black
striped flies.
