CORN PEST APPEARS
Farmers and Gardeners Urged To
Watch For Borer

One of the most destructive insect
pests OF corn, known as the European
cornstalk borer, discovered in eastern
| Massachusetts, last summer, is spread
ing rapidly TO other neighbOring local.
ties, according to entomologists OF the
United States department OF agricul-
ture, The most vigorous and eneTget-
ic action possible will be required on
the part OF the farmers and gardeners,
county agents and entOmologists II the
pest Is TO be eradicated or satisfactorily
controlled, the specialists declare in a
statement just issued
1t IS known that shipments OF in
tested ears OF sweet corn were shipped
last year to practically all the New
England states before the presence OF
the worm was discovered, Corn grow
ers are warned to be on the alert to
discover this pest in growing corn or
within the stalks OF last years crop,
and gardeners are urged to watch for
It IN such vegetables as tomatoes, beans
and some OF the common weeds, In
the caterpillar stage this pest when full
grown IS about one inch in length, gray
ish IN color and covered with numer.
Gus small, round, dark-colored specks.
This pest bores into the cornstalks at
the joints beneath the leaf sheaths or
into the bases Of the ears, As many as
two dozen caterpilars have been found
nhabiting one dry stalk, The insects
pass the winter in the pupal or resting
stage protected inside the stalks or
stems of corn or weeds of the previous
year growth When they are found in
such places in the spring or summer,
the dry vegetation should be carefully
gathered and Immediately burned to
destroy the pest
Persons discovering the insect are
urged to communicate Immediately
with the state agricultural college.

Better Care For Implements

The farm machinery shortage de.
mands better care of implements. Many
farmers are using more implements to
replace labor This greater use OF i'm
plements demands greateh care not
only to make the machinery last longer,
but to make it more efficient. The
shortage OF material for machinery and
Tor repairs necessarily limits the pos.
.Slbility OF replacing implements or brok-
en- parts. 1t is, therefore necessary to
make each machine last as long as pos.
sible and to avoid carelessness which
may result i'll broken parts.
Prof, K. T. Burdick Farm Help Spe
cialist of the Extension Service of the
University of Vermont and State Agri-
cultural College, suggests that every
tool be carefully examined at least
when job is completed. The tractor,
which IS coming into more general use
I'm Vermont could be cleaned proftably
at the end of each days work. This will
not only increase the life of the ma.
chine, but will give the operator a
chance to discover broken or loose parts
which, otherwise, would impair the ef-
hciency OF the tractor and the driver.
The same care should be accorded to
the other implements in proportion to
their delicacy and complication of
structure.
II farm machines are examined on
the completion of each Job and there is
no time to repair them at that time.
each part should be labeled, so that it
can be ordered and replaced at the
earliest convenience. "The time to re-
pair the equipment is not when the
machine is needed in the field, but dur
ing the spare time when it is in the
machine house A New England ma
chinery company states that the first
Monday after July 18th they have about
l,lOO orders for moving machine pit.
man heads.
investigation has shown that in most
cases where tractors do not give good
service the cause has been due to lack
OF knowledge on the part of the opera
tor. The farmer should study the ma
chinery carefully before he condemns
it, Every instruction book that accom-
panies machine is sent out with the
idea of aiding the operator. When a
new tractor is bought, the farmer can
well afford to spend many hours in
studying the machine 1t should be re-
membered that very few manufacture
ers would put a tractor on the market
which could not be operated. While
they might succeed in selling a CON
siderable number of unsatisfactory ma.
chimes, the reaction would soon force
them out of business. With this idea
in view, it is probable that operators
will find fault within themselves, rather
than within the tractor. The same
suggestion might be made concerning
other farm implements. Every farmer
should secure Farmers Bulletins No.
GAG and 947 from their county agent.
These bulletins give detailed methods
of care of plows, harrows, mowers, reap
ers and binders.

Importnnce Of Shade for Chicks

Late hatchcd chicks often fail to
make satisfactory growth because pro.
per shade is not within their range,
Poultrymen and farmers who are very
careful to do all they can for their
chicks in other ways frequently fail to
realize the importance OF plenty OF
shade Chicks that are obliged to re-
tire to the closcneSs OF a hot coop or
house in the heat Of summer, because
there is no other shelter from the hot
sun, will not do well
The air under shade trees, in a corn
field, or under a building is cooling and
refreshing, Very often bugs, worms and
other things to eat will be found in
these places. With grain high in price,
the more the chicks can find to cat, the
less it will cost you to feed them. Give
them all the range in the shade that is
possible; it will stimulate growth and
produce stronger harder, better chicks.
There is no objection to growing chicks
and corn on the same land, if the corn
is eight or ten inches high, as each is
a benefit to the other Efficiency is the
watchword in poultry raising, as well
as in farming; and growing two crops
on one piece Of land simultaneously
is certainly efficient
Another important feature is to put
the water-dish in the shade; chickens,
like people, want cool water to drink
on a hot day. Sun-heated water in a
dirty receptacle will cause a great deal
of trouble which can be easily prevent
ed by simply supplying fresh water.

growing chicks and helpful efficient
