A man hunt, which for the last year

HesSian Fly Has Caused Dam.
age i'm Kansas.
Eastern Early SOwn Grain
Nearly Destroyed.
CHINCH BUGS ARE HERE, TOO
Ten Million Dollars Is Estimate
by Expert.
Late SOWn Wheat Has Escaped
Serious Damage.

Discussing crop conditions in To-
Agricultural college, declared that the
Hessian fly had greatly damaged early
sown wheat in the eastern section of
Prof. Dean expects the bug to destroy
about ten million dollars worth of
wheat this year.
Wheat in the eastern counties which
was sown early last fall, furnished
a fine breeding place for the Hessian
fly, Dean declared. and has occasioned
considerable damage. Late sown
wheat, however, was but slightly af-
fected.
1.-The wheat in the eastern section
of the state which was sown early,
suffered considerable damage" said
Prof Dean. Il am unable to estimate
the damage actually done, but in some
places it has virtually ruined the early
sown crop.
''On the other hand, the wheat that
was sown unusually late is feeling the
effect of the attack of the chinch bug.
1t is a pretty hard struggle to plant
wheat and dodge all the bugs and in
sects and this year they have worked
both ways to some extent, at least"
Two years ago, the damage to wheat
by the chinch bug, was estimated at
Is to 20 million dollars. Last year,
through late sowing, the loss was re-
duced to 2 or 5 million.
This years damage by chinch bugs
may amount to about 10 million dol
lars" said Prof. Dean. Usually the
bug causes a loss of about 10 per cent
loss was smaller than at any season in
years
