The abundance of cutworms in 1910
may have been due. in measure, to
the cold weather cutting down the

Cutworms are the larval forms of
moths belonging to the family known
as Noctuid., or owlet moths. The first
name was given this family because
they are particularly night-fyers. most

Let 1t be understood that corn

the stalk from which the ears have
been removed BY husking and should
not be confused with corn fodder
which technically speaking includes
the stalks and the ears. These terms
are often used In an discriminating
way by the layman In this section Of
the country the corn crop is fed more
often as fodder than by feeding the
stalks and ears separately, especially
when the ears fail considerable Of
maturing. Ii is readily seen corn fod
der will vary much in its feeding
value depending upon the degree OF
