These safety dates are only approx
mate and serve to show in a general
way about the time when the fall
brood of the fly will have largely dis
appeared from the wheat belt east Of
the Mississippi river. As the larger
part of the fall brood appears and is
gone within week, 1t is possible for
farmer to time his seeding opera
tons SO as to avoid the fly.
Rotating Crops Is Effective.
Crop rotation is an efficient control
as during the season of migration, UNI
less new unaffected fields are near by,
most Of the insects succumb. Rotat-
ing the crops decreases the available
supply Of new host plants.
Destruction Of volunteer grain
plants by blowing, disking, or other
tillage operations must begin before
the larvae have matured in order to
be effective, as volunteer wheat ordi-
narily Is a prolific distributor of fly
infection. Enriching the soil by plow-
ing under the green cover crops and
by applying stable manure also aid
indirectly in combating the fly because
a fertile soil will produce plants that
soon attain vigorous, healthy growth
and are better able to resist diseases
than those grown on thin soils where
it is hard to develop sufficient growth
to withstand the winter If the wheat
is sown late.
Good seed is a prerequisite in Sc
curing healthy vigorous growth. Or
dinarily the fly is avoided where good
seed is sown in thoroughly prepared
fertile soil after the majority Of the
fall brood has disappeared. 1t is pref
cradle to SOW on ground not devoted
to wheat the preceding year. In the
case of spring wheat, the earlier the
grain Is sown the less 1t will suffer
from the Hessian fly, but good seed
and well prepared, fertile soil are
as essential in this case as elsewhere.

EFFICIENT MEANS OF

prepared by the United States DEPART
ment of Agriculture.)
When wheat follows a cultivated
crop that is removed sufficiently early,
such as corn or tobacco, the soil can
usually be prepared for seeding by the
use of a disk and ordinary harrows.
AS soon as the crop is harvested the
land should be gone over with the
disk to prevent the growth of grass
by narrowing, is given just before the
grain is sown. A better seed bed can
be prepared in this way than by plow-
ing, and it takes much less time ana
work. If weeds are plentiful, plowlng
three or four inches deep may be nee
essary. Narrowing with an ordinary
harrow should follow the blowing.
When wheat follows cotton the
stalks should be plowed under as soon
as the bolls are all open and picked.
Flowing in this case should be deep
enough to bury the stalks completely
in order to destroy the boil weevil.
The land should then be frmed with
a roller and the wheat sown with
disk drill. Disking or narrowing is not
advisable, as it unearths the buried
stalks.
When wheat follows other than
cultivated crop, the seed bed should
be prepared by blowing the land to
q depth of six or seven inches several
weeks before seeding 1t should then
be narrowed at once and afterwards
worked down with harrow, disk,
drag, or roller in such a manner as to
kill all weeds that start to grow after
the topsoil is well broken up. When
it is necessary to pillow just before
seeding, as when a catch crop OF cow
peas is plowed under, the soil should
be conpacted by rolling and narrowing
several times before seeding.

The Hessian fly, a minute wheat
parasite, less than knee-high to a
grasshopper, but gigantic as a fierce
lion in it's destructiveness, collects
$50,000,000 year from American
wheat growers. This mosquito-1ike
fly lays its eggs upon the leaves of
wheat, and after the eggs hatch the
little maggots live upon the plants
sap which they obtain by gnawing In
to the soft portion of the stem. Ordi-
narily two, or sometimes three or
more, generations of the insect occur
during a year. The main army of
flies arrives In the fall and conducts
a carnival Of despoliation among the
newly seeded grain. After the Hessian
fly has once thoroughly infested a
crop of wheat there is no known
means of saving the grain, and the
only known method Of preventing dam
age from the fly is to keep such invad-
ers out of the wheat.
Safe Dates for Seeding.
One OF the IuOSL GileCllfS luShHS VI
escaping fly damage is to defer fall
seeding until danger of molestation
from the fly is over. Safety dates for
seeding wheat in different sections of
the country are as follows:
Northern Michigan. soon after Sep
TENDER /; in southern Michigan, and
northern Ohio, about September 20; in
southern Ohio, after the first week in
October; in Kentucky and Tennessee,
October 10 to 20; in Georgia and South
Carolina, October 25 to November 49,;
in extreme southern Kansas and north
ern Oklahoma, as well as in Virginia,
after the first week in October. Oc-
tober-sown wheat always enjoys the
greatest freedom from the fly in Mis-
souri,. Practically the same CORE
spending delay in wheat sowing In the
fall should be followed to the south
ward.
