PLOW AND CULTIVATE
TO KILL JUNE BUGS
Beetles Are Parents of White
Grub, Harmful to Corn.
It Takes Three Years for One Of In
sects to Develop From Egg Which
Is Deposited in Meadows and
Sometimes in CornfieIds.
cBy CHARLES C. wENrzLER3

CBy CHARLES C. wENTZLER)
Have you ever seen the sO-called
June bug buzzing around an electric
light or seen them swarm on the side
walk in the gray of a spring morning?
They are big. dhrk-brown beetle
and at night when they bump against
the window panes or fly humping
against the ceiling make you crawl and
hunt for the broom.
These blundering, awkward beetles,
of which the chickens and birds are so
fond, are the parents of the corn pest
known as the white grub" which
feeds on the roots of the plants and
destroys them.
Millions of them are destroyed In
spring by hungry birds and myriad
others go down to death in swarming
around the arc lights of a city. They
are so sensitive TO light thar flame,
miles away. will attract them.
II takes three years for one Of these
beetles TO develop from the egg. The
beetles deposit their eggs in meadows
and sometimes in cOrniiclds. The tiny
grlbs which emerge from the eggs de
vclop into thick, fleshy, white grubs
which are also much sought for by
birds. When matured they are fully
one and one-half inches long,
Luckily for Mr.. Beetle, the grub
spends most of his three years in the
soil out of the reach of enemies. DIFF
ferent beetles. however, are complet-
ing their growth every year and so
we have the June bug with us each
spring.
All corn is apt to suffer from them
but owing to the habit of the beetle in
deposting It's eggs in meadows, corn
that is planted in newly turned sod is
more apt to suffer from these pests.
The best way to destroy them Is to
plow and cultivate 50 that their
natural food is destroyed and they are
starved to death before planting the
field. Some farmers let the chickens
follow the plow and destroy hundreds
of them in this way.

I'D like to have the lady wiv the

she wouldn't have any time to be a

edly. II wisht you'd ask her daddy.
Won't yOu?"
"Why. don't know Miss Woodburn,
old man." The father smiled a little
ruefully as he remembered that he had
thought to strike, up an acquaintance
through the child, but Miss Woodburn
had coldly repulsed him. though she
had long been a fast friend of Tom
my's, stopping for him to slip his hand
into hers as she hurried to her school
room, which was in the same building
MS the kindergarten. II think we have
pretty good times together. after all.
Shall daddy be the bear tonight?"
"I'm most afraid I'm sick. daddy"
murmured the boy; ~ spect I'd better

Mr.. Birney gathered Tommy-Trot up
solicitously and prepared him for bed.
II wisht your lap fitted me better

iady's lap to fit like Benny Jones'

drowsily.

Tommy to come running as usual, then

thus saving coal. A large per

timber which has received little

of firewood and yet leave the
