RAvACES OF FLIES
CUT WHEAT CROPS
TO Low AVERAGES

Hessian fly, joint worm, red rust
and black rust have combined forces
In Wayne county and are making cost
ly inroAds on the wheat crop. accord
ing to Joe Helms, well-known grain
expert.
Until a month ago prospects for
an unusual yield were general all over
the county. Within the last two weeks
noticeable damage has been done. es-
pecially by the fly and the worm. The
average yield. Mr.. Helms predicted.
will be far below normal. Most OF
the stalk Is apparently healthy. but
the heads will be small and the grain
shriveled because work Of the insects
will prevent nourishment from reach
ing the maturing grain. The leaves
have not a good color for this season
af the year, being too dark a green.
Some red rust is apparent on the
leaves, but little has been noted on
the stalk. Black rust Is also being re-
ported from many sources.
Everywhere In the state indications
are for one OF the best oats crops In
many years. Corn, while small for
this season is improving rapidly since
the continued rains ceased. Mr.. Helms
said. Until q week ago the color was
bad and the stalks had grown slowly.
With warmer days more rapid growth
10 noted. A few warm nights would
greatly increase the prospects for q
good yield. Mr.. Helms reported.
