PREVENT INJURY
BY ARMY WORMS
important That Pest Be Discov-
lered Before Crops Have Been
Seriously Damaged.
EXAMINE MEADOWS CLOSELY
Grass or Grain Should Be Carefully
Inspected to Detect Presence Of
CaterpiIIars-Poisoned Bats
May Be Used.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture.)
Watchfulness is the key to success
in cases of invasion by army worms,
which are young of certain moths or
millers that fly only at night. The
eggs from which the army worms
hatch are laid commonly on grasses
or grasslike grains and the tiny cater
pillars, upon Matching, feed for several
days near the ground, hidden by over
hanging grasses or grains and thus
may escape notice until nearly full
grown, by which time they have be-
come widely distributed over the in
tested fields.
Upon the discovery Of the pest in its
younger stages depends very largely
the possibility Of stamping out infes-
tations before serious injury to crops
has occurred. Meadows therefore
should be examined frequently, partic-
ularly those planted to timothy, blue
grass, wheat, and especially millet, to
discover the young worms.
If the infested spot he small, the grass
or grain can be moved off and straw
scattered over the spot and burned,
thus destroying the worms. If the
caterpillars have become distributed
over considerable area, this can be
marked off by stakes and the crop
sprayed heavily with solution of
paris green at the rate of one pound
to so gallons of water, or of arsenate
of lead at the rate of two pounds
of the paste or one pound of the pow
der to so gallons of water.
Poisoned Bats for the Army Worm.
Poisoned bats have long been used
as a means of destroying the numer-
Gus species of cutworms and also the
army worm. An efficient bait of this
kind may be prepared and used as fol-
lows: To 80 pounds of wheat bran
and one pound of paris green or two
pounds of powdered arsenate of lead;
add the juice Of one-half dozen or
anges or lemons. Then bring the

CARE AND attention
NEEDED BY TERRACES
Should Be Looked After Before
Loose Soil Settles.
Weak Places Should BE Inspected I'm
mediateIy After Each Rain and
Breaks Repaired-Sow Some
Kind of Cover Crops

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agricuture.)
Terraces require considerable care
and attention, especially during the
first year. before the loose soil has had
time to become settled thoroughly.
All apparently weak places should be
visited after every heavy rain, and
any breaks should be repaired immedi-
ately with shovel. 1t Is best not to
cultivate the terraces the first year,
but to seed them to some kind of cover
crop.
1t Is advisable to run the crop rows
parallel to the terraces, one row be-
ing planted on top Of the terrace. The
cultivation Of the top row tends to
keep the top of the terrace at the
proper height. Where the rows are
run across the terraces, as is done
commonly on moderate slopes. the top

soil is moved down the side slopes by
cultivation. AS result, the terraces
are more liable to break, and much
more maintenance work is required
than where the rows are run parallel
to the terraces.
All terraces that are cultivated
should be plowed at least once year,
center. In this way the height Of the
terrace is kept up and the base may
lie broadened each year.
Steep land that washes badly be-
tween the terraces should not be cul-
tivated. The terraces should first he
well built and the entire field seeded
to grass and used for pasture or
meadow.
When it is found necessary to cross
farm road in terracing field, the
building of the terraces should be con-
tinued across without regard to the
road. Where the terraces are as much
az 20 feet broad, no provision need be
made for passing traffic across them,
but they should be carefully main
tanned to prevent possible breaks.
Where the terraces are not more than
ten feet broad, considerable inconveni-
ence to traffic and injury to the ter
races generally results where no pro-
vision for crossing is made. Some
times the water is carried under the
roadway by culvert, but the principal
objections to this are that the capac'
ity of the waterway Is greatly reduced
and the free flow Of the water through
the culvert is often INSTRUCTED by
stalks or other trash washed from the
field. A wooden bridge spanning the
channel, so as not to reduce very much
the cross-sectiOnal area Of the water
way, makes more desirable and sat-
isfactory crossing.

Meats in Storage %

Every working day of the year
100000 pounds of meat are required
to supply home and export needs-and
only 10 per cent of this is exported.
These facts must be kept in mind
when considering the u. S. Bureau of
Markets report that on June l, 1919,
there were l,34S, 100000 pounds of
meats in cold storage, If the meat in
storage was placed ca the market it
would only be 20 days supply.
This meat is not artihcially withheld
from trade channels to maintain or
advance prices.
Meats in storage consist Of
65 per cent (approximate) hams, bacon, etc.,
in process of curing. 1t takes 80 to 90
days in pickle or salt to complete the
process.
10 per cent is frozen pork that is to be cured
later in the year.
per cent is lard. This is only four-ffths
of pound per CAPITA and much of it will
have to 60 to supply European needs.
l9 per cent is frozen beef and lamb part of
which is owned by the Government and
intended chiefly for overseas ship
ment. If this were all diverted to domes-
tic trade channels, it would be only
We lbs. per capita-a days supply.

Two Fleets of Airplanes
Will Carry Mail to Omaha
Chamber of Commerce Commissioner Just Returned
From Conference Tells of Plans for Postal Flights
From Cleveland to This City Soon.

Omaha is to be on the next leg
of the coast to coast air mail serv-
ice. The foregoing is the informa-
ton given out by Commissioner
Manley of the Omaha Chamber OF
Commerce.
Commissioner Manley is back
from Chicago, where he went for a
conference with Superintendent
Sproule of the air mail service.
There he was advised that plans for
extending the coast to coast route
are progressing rapidly and every-
thing points to the coming of TIE
rail air ships inside of couple of
months.
The Omaha landing field and the
hangers for he mail ships were dis
cussed. As result, it is expected
that within a short titae work will
be started on the Omaha landlnc
field so everything may be in read1-
ness as soon as official orders for
tie extension of the service are re-
ccived.
In Chicago Commissioner Manley
gathered the information that two
fleets of mail airships will be en-
ployed i'll the Omaha service. One
will operate between Omaha and
Chicago and the other between
Cleveland, O., and Omaha.
The Cleveland Omaha service
Omaha daily bee. (Omaha [Neb.]) 187?-1922, 1919-06-18

will be without stop, and will bring
eastern mail handled by train into
Cleveland. Eastbound the airshlps
will carry mail for Cleveland and be-
yond. To Cleveland this mail will go
by airship, where it will be deliv-
cred to the Twentieth Century Linz
tied train on the New York Central.
II is planned by this service to save
"a hours on Omaha-New York mail.
The Omaha Chicago air mail serv-
ice is expected to be on a six-hour
schedule. The best time now be-
tween Omaha and Chicago is IS
hours. No stops are to be made en-
route.
SO far as Commissioner Manley
could learn, plans for air mail serv-
ice west from Omaha have not been
worked out.
While in Chicago, Commissioner
Manley was at Grant Park, the air
mail landing tation, when one of
the planes arrived from Cleveland.
The trip was made in six hours. In
landing, an accident occurred. The
driver of the mail plane in coming
onto the field was compelled to
dodge an auto truck and in doing so,
lost his forward speed. His plane
dropped to the ground and turned
turtle, breaking the propeller, but
not injuring the driver, or his as

made by mixing some of this pow

spread on the hairs and after 2 or 3
minutes rub off, wash the skin and
all faces of hair have vanished. Be
