AMONG the enemies which tn.

AMONG the enemies which tbs
~ farmer has to combat perhaps
none are more troublesome
than insects. Nothing Is more
aggravating than to have promising
crop Of fruit or grain attacked by a
horde Of bugs" and greatly injured
If not entirely ruined.
Insects. like weeds, are very difficult
TO deal with If you go at them one at
time. but If properly managed they
can be easily held in check. From
the standpoint OF the damage they do.
insects may be divided into two
clasSeS-those which attack field croDs
and those which are injurious to fruit
aud garden crops.
1nere are number of insects
which attack corn. While these are
seldom present In large enough num-
bers to destroy any considerable part
OF the entire crop, the money value
of the damage they infiict on the corn
grown on a quarter section each year
amounts to no small sum-
One of the most important of these
pests is the corn root worm. The
eggs. which are laid In the cornfield
during August or September. hatch
during the next June or July. The
worms when full grown are about
one-third of an inch long and as big
around as pin. They bore up inside
the roots, injuring them so badly that
the growth of the plant is seriously
checked. Often, too, the roots are so
weakened that the corn blows down
badly. Some time during August the
worm goes through a transformation
called pupation, which changes 1t into
a small light green beetle. This bee
tie feeds on the silks and tips of ears
and lays eggs for the next years crop
Of worms.
Another insect which lives on the
roots of corn is the root louise. These
lice are very small and helpless. They
are kept through the winter in the
egg stage in ant hills. In the spring
after they hatch they are placed OIL
the corn roots by the ants. The ants
are very fond of sweet fluid which
is secreted by the lice, and they take
care of them for this purpose.
Other insects which do more or less
damage to the corn crop are the stalk
borer, wireworm, white grub, bill bug.
cutworm, etc These insects live ana
multiply in grass land and from there
find their way into the adjoining corn
fields. They do the greatest damage.
however. when the grass land is
plowed up and put into corn.
The damage from nearly all insects
affecting corn. small grain or grass
can be readily prevented by a good
system of rotation. This is especially
true If clover is used. since such in
sects as cutworms and grubs do not
work to any extent on clover. The
frequent plowing of the ground and
change Of crops where rotation is fol
lowed are fatal to most insects. Dam
age from these pests will be still fur
ther reduced If the soil is kept so we'll
supplied with plant food that the
plants can get quick start in the
spring. Treated in this way, they are
more vigorous and better able to with
stand insect attacks.
These remedies. with the exception
of the last, cannot be applied to or

Though colonists from the east and
middle west are still pouring into the
northwest by the hundreds, the travel
is not nearly so heavy as during the
first two days the rates were in ef-
feet, according to reports from rail-
road officials. Though trains No.
and No. carry extra coaches, the
latter is no longer compelled to run
in two sections every night.
Official reports Of the colonist ira
vel to the northwest over the Har-
riman lines for the first eight days
Of March have been made public.
They show that during that period a
total of 1916 tickets were sold to
points in Oregon This is an increase
over the same period for last year of
3O1, making a percentage gain of
nearly 25.
OF this number 275 tickets were to
Portland 272 were to points in south
ern oregon, while 99S were going to
destinations in eastern Oregon. This
shows that the portion of the state
east of the Cascade mountains is
drawing more immigrants than all
the balance of the state combined.
