plant. Mr.. Wicka says that aft
er the discovery of the first one
he could see an almost number
less amount of them and he i'm
mediately gave orders that the
field be plowed up and sown to
flax. During the blowing oper-
alton 'he discovered that when
the worm was exposed to the sun
for just a few minutes it caused
its death. On account of the
summer fallow process to which
this and was treated the moisture
had been conserve3 and this
condition he believes to have
been an aid to the worms. Since
the land has become more dry
the wheat is getting the start of
the pest in other fields and bids
fair to come through with a good
crop.
Farmers in other parts of the
county have reported something
of this same trouble and it is
hoped that any knowledge gain
ed along the line of the proper
method of eradication will be Civ

their wheat, and without appar-

Mr.. Wicka says that the field
which has given him the most
trouble was a lot of ground
which he pastured during the
year 1912 and summer fallowed
and faithfully titled during the
year 1913. This ground was
sown to wheat and after it had
grown to height of three or
four inches, it began to die.
Close investigation failed to re-

clothing was torn almost into
shreds and her shoes were torn
from her feet and literally burn
ed to pieces. She was uncon-
scious for short space of time,
but it is thought will suffer no
bad effect from the severe shock.
Olga Juhnke had both her
shoes torn off and received some
burns. but they were not as
severe as were those of her
schoolmate. The window at
which they were seated was torn
from the building, casing and all,
and was completely demolished.
1t was fortunate indeed that no
more serious results followed, as
the pupils were all in attendance
at the time the building was hit.
Just how much damage was done
the building will not be deter
mined until a thorough exmaina-
ton of the structure is made.
