FEW REPORTS OF
ARMY WORM DAMAGE

Occasional reports come in OF
the presence Of army worms in
various parts of the county, but
these reports have been so scatter
ing and the damage given so slight
as not to be at all alarming. H. G..
Kyle, who lives southeast Of town
said today that in the alfalfa field
which he has just finished cutting
there are plenty of army worms, and
these are eating off the young al
falfa shoots almost as fast as they
start up. This same alfalfa field,
however, is thanked by the river
and a wheat field, and no army
worms have been found in the
wheat.
]. Glatt, living west of Abilene,
has found army worms infesting
his corn field. Other instances have
been reported.
The cut worms will last from
TOUR days to a week and the army
worms from a week to ten days.
Both varieties will then enter the
ground and in the course of few
weeks will come out as moths.
These moths will lay eggs when
will hatch out more worms so that
In July there will be a second crop
of army worms which will do some
damage. And a third crop will
come in August, but the crops will
have reached such growth by
that time, that little damage will
result. The second crop of the ware
gated cut worms will appear late
in July and probably little damage
will result.
George A. Dean of the entomolo-,
gy department at the college, says
that the best cure" found so far,
