Crop OF Oats in Randall and Salem
Badly Damaged by the Rayages
OF a New Pest.
ONE THIRD OF CROP DESTROYED.
Worm Eats the Roots of the Tender Plant
and Allows 1t to Die For Lack of Nour-
ishment.-Pest is Spreading.

The ravages of the worm is the prin-
cipa1 topic among the farmers Of the
town of Randall and the town of Salem
and it is reported that new form Of
grain worm has appeared among the
growing grain in the county which
threatens to cause a great loss before
the grain is brought safely into the
shock. The worm is especially notice
able in the oat field and it is said that
fully one-third of the crop has been
destroyed in the two towns mentioned.
The worm made its appearance only a
few days ago but it has been deadly to
the crops. VIII. Harrison who has a
large farm near Genoa Junction was
in the city today to attend to his duties
as supervisor of assessments and he
reports that the oat crop has been ter
rihly damaged by the ravages of the
worm. In his fields he states that
fully one-third of the growing grain
has been eaten up and that the ravage
of the worm is about as general in
other portions of the town of Randall
and Salem and that in Northern I'LL
nois about the village of Richmond
the loss is even greater.
The worm seems to be new species
of trouble for the farmer and up to this
year it had not made its appearance in
the fields Of Kenosha county. It is a
small worm which lives in the soil di-
rectly under the roots of the plant, 1t
works at the heart of the plant and
the stalk soon deprived of its nourish.
ment falls dead to the ground. The
indications we're bright for the largest
crop of oats in the history of the coun-
ty but Mr.. Harrison believes that the
crop will be reduced by at least one
third on account Of the worm.
Thus far the fields in other towns in
the county have not been affected but
it is feared that the worms will reach
these fields before the sickle is put in
to the fields and the oats cut for the
harvest. No other crop has been seri.
ously affected but it is feared that the
worm will get into the growing corn
and cause even greater damage. AS
the corn in the country is decidedly
late this season the tender stalks
would prove toothsome morsel for the
worm and the damage done would be
almost unmeasureab1e.
Efforts are being made to have por-
tons of the ruined grain, as well as
samples of the worm, sent to the state
department of agriculture in order
that the farmers may find way of
combating the work of the insect
should it appear in another season.

ATTEMPT TO WRECK TRAIN.
North Bound Flyer Has Narrow Escape
From Disaster South of Waukegan.

North Bound Flyer Has Narrow Escape
From Disaster South of Waukegan.
Had not an accident made the fast
express train on the Chicago and
Northwestern leaving Chicago at 1880
O'Clock, twenty minutes late Tuesday
the flyer would have been wrecked just
south of Waukegan and hurled over a
brink forty feet high. AS the train is
always filled to its capacity, the ia
talities would have been appalling had
the danger not been removed.
The attempt at wrecking the train
was discovered by the crew of the
south bound train leaving Waukegan
at 1890 O'Clock.
Just as the train neared the top of
the grade south of the city, Engineer
Charles Manoney noticed an obstruc-
ton on the north bound track aud
brought his train to stand-still.
At point between the United
States Sugar refinery and the GENE
terry the crew found two large railroad
ties placed crossways between the
fails of the north bound track.
They were placed in such firm po-
sition that it was apparent that the
persons who put them there were de-
termined to accomplish their purpose.
The ties were found at point where
there is sharp curve in the road and
at the top of the steep incline for the
north bound trains.
Had they been allowed to remain in
position one of the worst wrecks mag
Unable would surely have taken place.
Following the discovery of the at
tempt to wreck the flyer word was hur-
ried to Chicago and several detectives
were sent to Waukegan.
They are now in that city endeavor-
ing to locate the miscreants who tried
to perform the dastardly act.
