Estancia news-herald. [volume] (Estancia, Torrance County, N.M.) 1912-19??, 1916-08-24

w. L. Compton, who lives
southwest of Estancia, is one of
the farmers who never fail to
raise crop, and of course he has
q good crop this year. He has
fifty-three acres of fine beans
and forty acres of good corn
some of it the best he ever raised.
Last August Mr.. Compton
plowed some ground intending
to SOW wheat, but it was too dry
in the fall and he planted the
ground to corn and beans, and
he says the crops on this ground
are decidedly better than on the
ground plowed in the spring.
j. N. Dellinger, who located
near Stanley about a year ago
and planted a crop on ground
that had not been farmed for
several years, was eaten out by
the cut worms. He has moved
to the old Preston place west of
Estancia and is looking around
for a place to buy in this vicinity.
Mr.. Dellinger comes from Okla
homa. He is not in the least
discouraged by his lack of sue
cess this season, and will buy and
remain here if he can find a deal
that suits him.
Reports from the foothills say
that the ladybird bean beetle is
damaging many fields of beans,
and a few have been found in
valley fields near the foothills.
1t is not likely that this insect
can at this stage destroy many
fields, but it may damage many
of them heavily. So far the in
sect is confined almost entirely to
the fields of the native people in
the bills. County Agent Har-
we'll has been up there for sew
eral days endeavoring to get
those whose fields are being raw
aged to club together and get
power sprayers, by which means
the insects can be exterminated,
but so far hasn't succeeded in
getting any of them to take hold.
Of course hand sprayer will do
the business, but it is too slow
for field work. Mr.. Harwell
thinks that in most cases the
ravages of this insect will not do
more than stop the growth of the
plant and thus prevent the
younger beans from maturing,
and that the bean pods now prac-
tically mature will ripen, but it
is pity to let them work this
damage when it could be pre-
vented.
