NEW MENACE TO IOWA CORN.
Farmer Near Geneva Finds Unknown
Pest Destroying His Crop,

Farmer Near Geneva Finds Unknown
Pest Destroying His Crop.
Geneva, June ga new enemy tc
growing corn has made it's appearance
in the field of George Johnson on the
John Page farm east of town in the
shape of a new pest, whose destructive
habits closely resemble the ravages OF
the cabbage worm in Its operations
and differs from the well known wire
worm in that it feeds on all parts OF
the plant above ground.
About two weeks ago Mr.. Johnson
while finishing cultiyating his field,
noticed few hills Of corn eaten of
to the ground and gave them no fur
ther attention, until week later in
the same place he discovered a much
larger area destroyed and much more
infested.
The destruction in this field be.
came so widespread as to threaten the
crop and has been visited by many
farmers who are alarmed and fear its
spread to adjoining fields. One pc.
culiarity about the movement of the
worm is that it spreads southwark
The field Of Mr.. Runyan on the north
was but slightly affected.
1t is the opinion Of many, farmers
that if the worm is not checked and
speedily stamped out its ravages will
prove as destructive to the fields of
the corn belt as the boil weevil has
to the cotton fields Of the southwest.
