The Army
Cut Worm

The army .cnt-;worm has been found
in several he pi of wheat and oats
in the count, ID they have done con-
siderable dal..to in places. Continued
advance of thy cut worm may be
halted by the following method:
Plow a furlough about fifteen feet in
advance of the damaged grain, this
will leave about all of the cut worms
on one side of the furrow. In plow-
ing the furrow have the vertical edge
of the furrow toward the grain to be
protected. The furrow should be five
inches or more deep and made with
the edge as smooth and clean cut as
possible. Scatter a thin coating of
bran mash along the bottom of the
furrow. The advancing cut worms are
brought in direct contact with the
poison and their advance checked. lr
this way a little, poison goes a long
way and a sure way of saving the
rest of the field.
How to make the poison bran mash
Bran, 25 pounds; Paris green, ]
pound; salt, Y pound; mollasses, ]
pint.
The salt, Paris green and bran are
mixed together thoroughly. Thin out
the molasses With water and add this
to the dry mixture, add enough more
water to make this a dry, crumbly
coarse mash. For best results the poi
son bran mash should be scattered in
the late AFTERNOON or evening and
while the bran ;fnoist. This method
of ofr controlling in worms nrnnsd is N not IT, an ae ex;
successful Nl V7Sh it has been given
a fair tri:QFRlEee1hy worms will not
die at once'JiNI rlive from twenty
to thirty houfs."ef
If the cut worms have destroyed the
crop fax, oats or corn may be re-
seeded in the fields. The equity has
a good supply of white flint seed corr
on hand that would make a good CROP
on such land and thus permit US tt
keep up the production of food.
l have a circular in the office which
gives complete directions and if any
one wishes this circular l would be
glad to mail it to any n requesting
it; or I will make a personal visit
to your field if you request it.

STATE AID EXPLAINED

Mr. Rudisill briefly outlined the
methods by which townships and
counties may obtain state aid for
road building and then spoke upon
the great necessity at the present
time for having roads In such condi.
tion that there can be no delay In
getting produce from the farm TO the
consumer. lie urged that township
trustees strictly adhere to the prac-
tice OF dragging the roads, apportiou,
ing enough of their fund for road
work for this purpose before using
any money for other improvements
aud then drag the roads consistently
aud regularly.
lie especially spoke against the
practice of working the roads in
the fall of the year when they arc

they be graded early in the spring
and then dragged frequently to main.
tain the grade The tax levied by
mud is the heaviest tax paid today, he
declared
Mr.. Rudisill was followed by Coun.
ty Commissioner Hays. who spoke of
the consistent roadbuilding plan
adopted in Harrison township, in this
county, where the trustees have pro.
vided for dragging the roads and
keeping them in repair at all times
A tractor has been purchased to be
used in this township for road grad
ing purposes.
TAX OBJECTION ANSWERED
Mr.. Hays said that the objection
that such extensive work on the
roads would increase taxes was cas-
lily answered by the fact that at pres
ent the mud tax. is being levied by
every unimproved road upon every
man in the county and the worst of it
Is that he doesn't receive any benefit
from the loss so occasioned
There's no use to squander mon.
ey in spasmodic road work or to
waste it by doing no road work or as
little as possible when, by spending
what is necessary, one can get the
results and in the end effect great
saving he declared.
County Surveyor Shaw spoke chief
ly upon the subject of attaining cor
rect drainage of roads He recon-
mended that wide, shallow drainage
bitches should be made along the
sides of the road rather than a deep,
wide ditch, as the former are much
less likely to be obstructed by caving
in or accumulations of rubbish. Good
culverts and maintenance of proper
grade for the roadbed by dragging
were also advised.
