Has Your Wheat Been Infested
With the Hessinn Fly This Year?

and in some cases the infested straw
will be sent by the farmer to local sta
lions for examination. The wheat
grower can learn just where his SAM
pie of straw is to be sent when he
sends his name to the department, in
dicating his willingness to send the
sample. The department encourages
the sender not to be afraid to forward
too much of the straw, even though it
mas to be sent by parcel post.
The upper part of the straw need
not be sent. but enough above the
ground should be included to get the
insect in what is known as the flax
seed" stage when the larva is incased
in a hard, brown skin and somewhat
resembles a flaxseed.
Late sowing of the seed and burning
of the stubble when not seeded to
grass or clover are the only measures
known to date that are effective in
controlling the Hessian fly-that is,
for winter-wheat sections. In the
spring wheat sections, late seeding
will not apply. On the contrary, the
earlier it is sown in the spring the
less it seems to suffer from this pest.

WASHINGTON July HAS your
wheat been infested by the Hessian
fly this season." Is a question that
the United States department of agri-
culture is now asking farmers. The
information is desired that there may
be general cooperation between all
concerned in reducing the devasta-
lions of the fly. There is every indica-
ton that the pest will be unusually
troublesome to the crop this fall.
Every wheat grower in the country
who suspects that his crop has peen
infested is requested to send his name
to the departments bureau OF ento-
mology at Washington, D. c., with
request for a question blank. The
questions to. be answered are merely
as to whether the wheat growers crop
was infested at certain seasons. The
farmer will then be asked to forward
some of the infested wheat plants for
examination, postage to be paid by the
government. He will also be asked to
give his name, address and the near
est railway station.
The department is cooperating with
various state experiment stations in
this campaign against the Hessian fly,

PAYING THE HIGHEST HONOR.

a feminist orator or writer once
said that fame has no spotlight to
play upon mother; that there is no
place in history for her; that for her
are no honors.
That statement will be made to APP
pear more absurd than ordinarily
heXt Sunday, when Mothers Day
will be observed all over the country.
On the preceding Saturday, which
is tomorrow, a higher tribute will be
paid to mothers here IN Richmond.
Flowers. cards and buttons will be
sold by the Federation OF Mothers
Clubs to put into practice the idea
the Virginia organization has con-
ceived Of hOnorinE the mothers of
the State by helping their children.
Let those who wish TO pay tribute by
wearing white rose Sunday do so !;
but those who can conceive of no
greater thing than service will help
the local Mothers Clubs on Satur-
day.
