WATCH FOR ARMY WORM.
Outbreak of the True Army Worm Possible in the Atlantic States
 Farmers Should be Prepared

An unusual abundance of the moth of the true army worm in Maryland, Virginia and the District of Columbia indicates the possibility of an impend- ing outbreak of this destructive pest in the Atlastic States. The moths, the entomologists of the department report, were laying their eggs during the first week of July, and as it takes from three to four weeks for the caterpillars to mature, their presence should begin to be quite apparent about the last week in July to the first week of August.
 Farmers should be on the alert to discover this pest in its younger stages, before it has reached large size and has committed irreparable damage to growing crops, especially grasses and grains.
 When the army worm is discovered at work the infested spots should be sprayed immediately with a solution ot powdered arsenate of lead, 2 pounds to 5O gallons of water. If Paris green De used the spray should be composed as follows Paris green, 1 pound; :; freshly siaked lime, pounds; water, oO gallons. The lime is necessary as prevestive of burning by the Paris green, which is quite caustic when used on tender plants such as corn.
 When spraying is impracticable the poisoned bran bait is recommended. u IS made as follows: Wheat bran, oV pounds; Paris green, pound; >or "hite arsenic or powdered arsenate oi lead pounds; low-grade molasses. to quarts.

 When the army worms are movinp together in a mass.they may be halted and destroyed by blowing out or dig- ging a narrow ditch with steep sides directly across their path. The worms fall into this ditch in large numbers and may then be crushed readily by dragging a log or chunk of wood back and forth through the ditch.
