be killed. Worms can be killed
by dragging a log up and down
the ditch or by scattering straw
soaked with kerosene over the
worms and firing. All badly in
tested lands should be ditched as
indicated above and such pre-
cautions taken as may be neces-
sary to prevent migration Of
worms to other fields.
After the worms disappear in
an infested field, as a precaution-
airy measure to prevent a posi-
BILE second outbreak, it would be
well to break such fields within
a few days (not more than y

prevent them from emerging as

The Army Worm.
(By George Becker, Acting
Entomologist.l

Entomologist.)
The army worm is the larval
stage of one of our night flying
moths. It is usually conspicu-
Gus during cold springs. Moths
parents Of worms) probably de-
post eggs for the first genera
ton early in April seeking such
places as unused grasslands, run-
grazed meadows around old
straw stacks and in fact, any
place where it will not be dis
turbed and where the young
worms when they hatch will find
Ia food supply. Besides the wild
grasses the worms attack oats,
rye, wheat, millet, etc.
Preventive measures. Burn
ing over weedy and sodlands and
doing the breaking well in adj
vance of planting is usually all
that is necessary to avoid out
breaks. Where clean culture and
fall breaking are generally prac-
tised in a community there will
seldom be an army worm out
break. Keeping in mind places
| in which the moths are likely to
! breed one should take every pre-
caution to eliminate such places
from the farm.
Where the worms appear ir
great numbers on piece of lano
means should be taken to pre-
vent their getting to crop
Where such lands are not to be
used for pasture it might be wei
in some cases to dust the grass
and weeds thoroughly with ar
senate of lead. Such practice
might prove profitable where the
infested land is adjoining a cror
of wheat, oats, rye, etc.
Where crop is once attacked
| there is little to be done. If il
becomes apparent that the
worms are going to get the
whole crop and that the crop is
not going to outgrow the injury
the best means to pursue would
be to NOW the crop down and
make it up into hay or silage. In
this event one should protect the
other crops from the migrating
worms.
With pillow and spade a ditch
should be made around the in
Tested piece having it's far side
vertical. If the soil is moist
such a ditch will not prevent the
worms from getting to adjoin-
ing fields; it will have the effect
of lettering them, however, I'M
( til they can be killed. Holes are
frequently dug at intervals of
thirty feet in the ditch and the
worms wandering up and down,
will fall into the holes and can

Praise For Claude Erwin.

From the Stone County Re-
cord, we note that the grand
jury of that county in it's final
report, paid a very high as well
as deserved compliment to our
retiring prosecuting attorney,
Mr.. Claude M. Erwin.
Stone County is only one of
the four counties of the district
whose people feel thus toward
this capable youngman, who has
SO signally lived up to a high
sense of official duty throughout
two terms as prosecuting attor-
ney.
The office is a trying one at all
times and particularly has this
been true for the past few years
in Jackson county. 1t tests a
mans character, his determine
ton, his willingness often times
to battle alone and against pub
lie sentiment, to prosecute a for
Tner friend, to ever hold before
him an exalted conception of
duty, justice and right, hewing
to the line and letting the chips
fall where they may, but our
young friend has lived up to
these ideals.
Nor has he handled the prose-
cutting attorneys office to make
the most out of it through fines
and fees in petty offenses. His
administration will stand the
test from any angle,-the abil-
ity he has lent to the enforce
ment of the law, his zeal and
fairness in duty and his refusal
