on the Hy-free date there 10 little
danger from the stubble fields
before spring. Where the land
has already been plowed there is
a heavy growth Of volunteer
wheat, which IL now heavily in
tested. It will be necessary to
destroy this volunteer wheat as
soon as possible by disking or
narrowing, otherwise adult flies
will emerge from 1t next spring
and infest the late sown wheat.
It would be much better to plant
4 smaller area of clean land to
wheat than to plant a large area
containing much volunteer wheat

measures advocated above are

HeSSian Fly Situation in
Cherokee County.

By J. W. McCOllOch, Assistant
EutomolOgist, Kansas State Ag-
ricultural College.
The Department of Entomol-
ogy of the Kansas State Agri-
cultural College has recently
made an examination of the Hes
sian fly conditions in Cherokee
county for the purpose of ascer-
tanning the probable danger to
the wheat crop this fall from this
insect. A number of fields in
the vicinity of Columbus that
we're in wheat last year were ex-
amined and many healthy fax
seeds we're found in the old stub
Bile. Where the land has been
plowed there Is a heavy growth
of volunteer wheat and all stages
of the fly were found infestinR
this volunteer wheat. Adult
flies are dow emerging from the
volunteer wheat and will con-
tiuue to emerge until about the
rli17la e 0clnlrr.
Baxter Springs news., 1915-09-30

The above facts indicate that
there is danger of serious injury
to the wheat in this locality, un-
less measures are taken to con-
troll the fly. The Department of
Entomology recently issued a
circular giving in full the msa;
sures for controlling the Hessian
fly. Briefly, these measures are
to thoroughly prepare the seed
bed, destroy the volunteer wheat
and delay the planting until the
fly-free date, which In Cherokee
county Is October 13. The source
of the fall infestation of fly
comes from three sources-stub-
bic of the previous crop, vOlun-
teer wheat, and early soWn
wheat. By following the above
measures these sources of infes-
tation are eliminated.
These methods of control have
been practiced for q number of
years in many localities in the
state with excellent results. Con.
ditious this year will make it
much more difficult to coutrol
the fly than during the past few
years. The acreage to be plant
ed will be smaller because it has
been impossible to domuch ploW-
ing and consequently there will
be much stubble land adjoining
wheat fields which will serve a.
a source of infestatiou. This
stubble land should be plowed as
son as pou.ible this fan Or eorly
