infested stalks, and discoloration Of
the plant. The grain is frequently en-
tirely missing in the upper meshes Of
the head and has distinctively shriv-
eled appearance In the lower part. The
infested stalks are usually coarse with
color more or less bleached out, while
the head is short and hanging down
from the weakened stem. Injury Ia
present to less degree in the young
wheat at stooling time, and as it be-
gins to form stalks. The injured plant
shows excessive stooling with coarse
leaves that soon turn yellow and die.
The pest appears in two broods, one
in the fall and the other in the spring.
The fall brood, as has been stated,
emerges from pupae that developed
from the larvae which attacked the
crop last spring. The larval stage is
of course the stage in which the dam
age is done. The larvae were them
selves developed from the eggs laid by
the spring brood of adult flies. Trac-
ing the cycle back further 1t is found
that the spring brood was developed
from pupae formed in the winter, de-
veloped from larvae Matched from eggs
deposited by the fall brood in the early
stalks of fall wheat and barley.
It Is seen by tracing this cycle of
development that the most vulnerable
place for attacking this pest is in the
fall. By removing the sheathes from
the joint adjacent to the head of the
infested stalk and at other places
along the stalk, as they occur in the
field now, the pupae may be found as
small, shiny brown fiattened objects
pressed close against the stalk. They
are mostly lying in groups of two to
eight or ten about the stalk just above
the joint and extending up near the
top of the sheath. This stage of de-
velopment is often referred to as the
"fiaxseed" stage of the Hessian fly.
Being thus in the dormant stage and
incapable of movement until develop
ment into the flying stage occurs, the
insect may be attacked by burning the
stubble. If this is not deemed advis-
able, then resort may be had to cul-
tural methods, disking the surface to
mash down the stalks and incorporate
them into the top soil, and then plow-
ing under to good depth and later
compacting the soil.
If burning is to be resorted to it is
best in harvesting the crop to leave a
rather long stubble, then NOW the
stubble and give it time to dry before
burning. This process will destroy not
merely the pupa of the Hessian fly,
but will kill many other insect and
weed pests when present.

Of the soil and the use of good seed.
