Saves About Half

The cost of nilkman's milk lies mainly in the
cost of daily delivery. We save all that. And, by
evaporating two-thirds of the water, we save in
shipping bulk.
So Van Camps costs you less than the poorest
milk that milk wagon ever delivers. When you
reduce it to the usual milks richness the cost will
figure about six cents per quart.
Then you save all waste. You open can

A BAD Army WORM.
,
BY F. L. Washburn, Division
Of Entomology, Minnesota
University Farm.

j. J. + j. i !. i. j. !. !. !. !. + !. !. J. \
This ld,time Minnesota pest has ap.
peared in destructive numbers this
season, and has destroyed all prospect
of seed from at least four-fifths of the
timothy crop in Central and Southern
Minnesota besides greatly reducing
the value of the timothy as hay crop.
The army worm is cut worm, Oc.
curing in enormous numbers in a
given locality and generally ION the
march" from one field to another, eth
or impelled by hunger or the attacks
of parasites or both. Though suffering
from many parasitic insects (perhaps
SO per cent are parasitized) and from
the attacks of such nocturnal providers
as shrews, skunks, etc., man has to take
prompt measures against them when
they appear as abundantly as they
have this season.
The larvae, or caterpillars, or
worms" are, when full grown, about
one and one-fourth inches long and
vary in color from green to very
dark brown or. even blackish, but al.
most invariably showing character
1stic stripes on back and sides. This
description applies to Heliophila al
bilinea, Hub. the species in question
In every case of infectation, as far
as we have been able to ascertain.
these caterpillars have come from old
timothy fields that have been allowed
to run a number of years. four or
more, without being plowed.
If farmers would pillow up their timo
thy fields at least once in three years.
it would be of material help in pre-.
venting their outbreaks. The attack
last year is another argument for fall
blowing and proper rotation of crops
When full grown, they go into the
ground one to two inches below the
surface, and turn into mahogany-col
ored pupae, from which the yellowish
brown moths emerge later. The fe
male moth lays eggs on the leaves OF
grasses and grains. which eggs hatch
into the aforementioned worms.
Many letters, complaining of this
pest, have reached us from St. James,
Worthington, Window, Heron Lake
Russell, Elbow Lake, Otter Tail. Ruth
ton, Hendricks, Marshall, Battle Lake,

Ashby. Candy, Tyler, Murdoch: Revere
and elsewhere. The damage done in
these various places ranges from the
more or less complete destruction OF
seed on from 100 to $500 acres. After
the timothy heads are eaten, they turn
their attention to oats, wheat or corn
travelling in an army" from one field
to another, hence their name.
When farmers crop is threatened
by these worms. and the land Is in q
condition to allow it, he should pillow
one or two or three deep burrows
across the line of march of the worms,
the steep side of the furrow toward
the crop to be protected; the worms
collect in the furrow and can be killed
with kerosene. If post-holes, eight or
ten inches deep, are made at intervals
in these burrows, they form traps into
which the worms fall.
Or farmer can spray broad strip
about the worms or across their line
Of march with Paris green, at the rate
of two or three pounds in 100 gallons
of water; or, arsenate of lead (better
than Paris green). at the rate of four
or five pounds in 100 gallons of water.
Fields where they are entering the
soil to go through the resting stage
should be plowed-harrowing is not
sufficient. Cooperation in the attack
Is necessary, for there might remain
on one mans place enough worms to
lay waste the entire neighborhood
later on, if every one did not take pre-.
ventive measures. The presence of
this worm on cured hay does not poi
son it for stock, as some farmers have
supposed. The species under discus.
sion is two-brooded
If one farmer, whose field may har-
Dor thousands of these insects in any
stage, refuses to pillow same. his neigh.
bors would be justified in regarding
his infested field as public nuisance.
