ARMY WORMS ARE
BEING HELD HERE
Barraae of Poison Bran In Front and
Propaganda of Parasitic Fly 10
Holding Army in
Check.
SCATTERED OVER LEE
Mostly in Pastures and Meadows Now,
But Moving into Wheat Fields
and the Corn to Lesser
Extent
SCATTERED OVER LEE

1.-The army worms are scattered all
over Lee county pretty thoroughly, Dut
they are not very numerous In any one
place, and the damage done is not
excessive.
That was the bulletin at IL O'Clock
this forenoon from headquarters OF
inc campaign to repel the attack tne
army of worms is making on Lee
county. the office of ]. S. Clare, coun-
ty farm bureau agent, located at Don
Nelson.
There is hardly any part of the
county in which the army has not
division moving forward against the
grain and grasses. In the edge OF
K eokuk in three places, the Plank
read, the Hilton road and the John
son street road, they are operating.
An Ally Does Good Work.
A late report says there is div1-
sion at work at Sandusky. There are
several divisions all around Donnell-
son. In fact almost every community
in the county is the victim of the IN
yasion. or is neighbor to COM
n,unity In which the army worm has
appeared.
One good feature is, that the fight
against the worm army has an effec-
tive ally In a parasitic fly which is at
tacking the worms in larger force than
usual.
On the farm of Otto Krebill, near
Donnellson, Mr.. Clare found that
fifty per cent of the army worms were
infested with the parasite which kills
them about as quickly as does poison.
Defense Working Well.
Poison bran is being used against
the worms, whenever they advance
out of pastures and meadows. The poi
son is not practicable in hay and pas
ture on account of danger of poison
ing the stock which will eat it later.
These fields have been the chief
points Of attack of the army divisions
to date, but they are moving out into
the wheat fields and to lesser ex-
tent into the corn fields.
THE poison bran is working fine, .
said Commander-in-Chief Clare to The
Gate City by telephone today. "One
nan had two acres covered with the
army worms. He scattered the poison
bran in a strip in front of them and
selves-and he got all Of them"
Watching City Grdens.
Miss la Mitchell was busy last
evening and today taking measures to
protect the gardens under her super
vision, If the attack should move into
Re okuk.
The same method of using poison
bran will be used there, but under
careful supervision, SO as not to get
any of the poison on edible tops OF
plants, as cabbage and the like Pota-
toes may be perfectly protected with
the poison bran or the spray.
Down in, Clark county, Missouri,
Isom Martin was the first to find the
81 my worms at work. They We're in
his alfalfa. On the advice Of Farm
Agent Hook, of that county, he used
Ioisoned bran and exterminated the
army over night
