COUNTY AGENT
TO WAR ON WORMS
Will Attempt to Prevent the
Spread of Insects Now Do
ing Damage to the Farmers
Crops.

Attempts to prevent the spread of
insects and worms now damaging the
farmers truck gardens and field crops
will be made by John S. Bordner. St
Joseph county agricultural agent
M. N. High. u. s. truck crop entomol-
ogfst. visited the county the first two
days of this week and prescribed rem
edies for checking the growth of these
ravishing insects.
The garden wet worm was found to
be the most serious OF the destructive
worms, and was discovered to be par
ticularly damaging to alfalfa The
worm may be killed. according to the
entomologist. by spraying with two
pounds OF arsenate of lead to so gal
Ions Of water. This can be done
however only to alfalfa large enough
to stand the effects of the poison
spray.
The report of the county agent in
regard TO destroying these insects fol-
low:
The furnished plant bug has been
found doing serious damage to potato
vines killing branches and leaves,
which has led growers to think that
they had late blight on their vines.
This bug when fully grown is about
IA inch in length with a color, vary
ing from dull yellowish brown TO al
most black. Along with this bug
millions OF tiny white leaf hoppers
were also found. These like the bugs
are not chewing insects and can be
killed only by contact with sprays.
In some cases the lower leaves of the
vines were also found badly eaten by
differeat species of flea beetles.
The following spray has been recon-
mended for potatoes attacked by
these sucking and chewing insects, viz.
5 or. of BLACK Leaf 40' nicotine sui
phate, pounds of whaleoil soap for
sucking insects or OF. of Black Leaf
40 and about pounds of arsenate Of
lead to 80 gallons of water for both.
The soap is dissolved in warm water.
then diluted to so gallons after which
the nicotine can be added. This sh Ould
be applied with a good strong pres
SIRE and preferably with nozzles so
set that the spray strikes the plants
from the sides, rather than from
above.
So-called cutworms of several spe-
cies, were also found doing serious
damage to truck crops, especially to-
matoes, where they completely de-
stroyed the green fruit by eating deep,
fits into them.
The common army worm was also
found doing serious damage to sweet
corn. These worms are the larvae
of some of our common moths. The
common cabbage worm is also more
numerous than usual. All these
worms can be killed by the ordinary
arsenical poisOns. Paris green, with
lime is to be preferred. however. since
IL will wash off readily thus eliminating
danger from poisoning where the cab
bage, tomatoes. etc, are to be used for
food soon after spraying.
The striped cucumber beetle has al
so done a great deal of damage to
melons. Unfortunately all insects, in
| 1uring squashes, melons. cucumbers,
etc, are so commonly classes as suck
ing insects. This beetle as all beetles
I is chewing insect and can be killed
by spraying Thoroughly with arsenate
of lead, Is recommended for other
chewing insects

The Drink
Habit


Few men can appreciate the handi-
cap under which a drinking man labors.
In business life his brain is not clear or
keen enough to compete with the wide
awake, clear-brained men whose system
Is not undermined by alcoholic poison.
Success cannot be his and, although
he may have tried faithfully to throw
off the habit many times, he has found
ii impossible to do so.

Augusta hunters are now interested in
the opening of the big game season.
which comes next Thursday, Oct /, and
many of them are preparing for a trip
little later to. the hunting grounds IN
the northern part OF the state. Under
the general law the open season on deer
begins Oct. and closes Dec. IS, except in
the counties of Androscoggin, Cumber-
land, Kennebec, Knox. Lincoln, Sagada-
hoe, Waldo and York. where the open
season is only during the month of No
vember. and on Mount Desert where
there IS no open season at any time
While some of the hunters will doubtless
go up into the woods in the early part of
the month, the majority will wait until
later on, when the bucks will have left
the thiekets. The early hunters are apt
to have to content themselves with a doe
or possibly two, but later on when the
bucks are out the hunting Is at its best
According to the law as 1t now exists
each hunter is allowed two deer in one
season except in the eight counties men
toned above, where but one deer il allow
ed to an individual in one season. The
open season on moose is restricted to tha
month of November. But one moose can
be killed by an individual in one season.

least two prengs or tines not less than
