Free freight and free duties have been arranged for and the mili- tary authorities guarantee safe con. duct The Red Cross cannot continue to send assistance without public con- tributions.

CUTWORMS ARE
DESTROYING FIELDS
Farmers Should Act Pr0mpt1v
And Exterminate Wheat
RavagerS

Wnlle lne area injected by the
army cutworm in this vicinity is
not definitely known there seems
to be evidence that great many
wheat fields are heing DESTROYED
by this pest.
Farmers should act without
delay should they discover that
the worms are present in their
fields, and should it be determin-
ed that the crop is loss the
fields should be reseeded at once
to some other crop.
In the western part of the state
and in the Judith Basin, where
wheat is raised extensively, the
inroads of the worms has been
checked by the prompt action Of
the farmers, and very little loss
has resulted, The worms that
are not killed by the treatment
crawl into the ground and emerye
later as moths. The eggs are
laid in the soil. and when the
conditions are favorable there is
another invasion. This year
seems to be one Of the flavor
able" years and only extreme
caution and prompt action will
stop the pests.
The following is the treatment
specified by the agricultural COL
lege and has proven efficient in
the western parts of the state:
Every farmer who has a field
OF tall wheat should be on the
alert every day for cutworms.
In several parts Of the state there
has been serious outbreaks in
some instances doing consider
able damage, before the owner
knew they were present. By
keeping close watch on your
fields and being prepared to COM
bat these ravagers as soon as
they appear, there is not so much
danger of a large area becoming
infested.
The best time to examine a |
field is in the cool OF the evening
or late afternoon. During the
heat of the day there may be
scarcely any in sight. In case
they are found, measures of con-
troll should be put in operation al
once. Don't wait to see if they
are going to do any damage as
some men have done, but start
fighting.
P.ow deep furrow around the
infested area two or three rods
out from where the worms are
working and another around the
non-infested part with the verti.
cal edge toward the side to be
protected, which will in a meas
ure check their progress of mi
grafton. At the same time. q
