PROTECT CROP FROM BUGS.
K. c. A. G. EntomoIogist Tells How to
XIII Pests.


Manhattan, Kan. June ia chinch
bug warning has just been issued by
DR.. T. J. Headlee, state entomologist
at the State Agricultural college. The
bulletin is brief.,s These are DR.. Head
lees conclusions.
THE bugs have about completed
their damage to wheat and other small
grain and the new brood Of immature
bugs will soon crawl from the ripened
grain into adjacent corn, cane, kafir
and millet.
2-In the new fields they will mature
and produce a new brood several hun
dred times more numerous than they
are.
There are various ways OF making a
dust barrier. A deep furrow may be
made with a lister and the side walls
and bottom reduced to fine dust by
drawing a heavy log back and forth.
The entire strip may be plowed deeply,
narrowed until reduced to dust and
parallel dusty burrows made by drag
ging a double trough back and forth.
each trough is composed Of 2x12 inch
lumber and is three feet long. The
troughs are held together by two 2x4
well spiked" on. In soil which works
up readily into a dust and in the alb
sence of wet weather the dust bar
rier has proved much the more salts
factory. OF course, the purpose of ehe
first two rows OF corn and OF the dust
ditch is to detain the bugs until they
can be killed. In field work last year
1t was found that a good gasoline blast.
torch was the most efficient method or
killing the bugs as they collect in the
ditch or on the rows of corn. The torch
is used to flame the infested stalks ana
the bottom and side OF the Oltch as
often as the bugs appear.
