the borers. Burn all of the previous
years cornstalks, corn stubble, crop
remnants, stalks Of garden plants,
weeds, and grasses that may contain
over -wintering bOrers. Do this in the
late fall, winter or early spring, while
the borers are within such material
and the vegetation is dry enough to
burn readily.
Under the most favorable circum-
stances the burning of infested plants
will require considerable labor and ex-
pense. but it must be remembered that
the insect seriously threatens the corn
growing industry of America, and that
radical and effective measures must be
adopted to control it.

pean corn borer successfully when it
invades your corn field, write the Di-

How BOrer Injuries Corn

now BOFef Injuries COfn
All parts of the corn plant, except
the fibrous roots, are tunneled by the
larvae or borers. Their most damag-
ing work is done in the stalks and
ears, which they partially or totally
destroy. They usually enter the upper
end Of the stalk, near the base of the
tassel, and tunnel upwards for a short
distance before tunneling down the
stalk. The tassel is so weakened by
this damage that it breaks over before
maturing. Much pollen is thus lost and
grains fail to form normally on the
ears. These broken tassels, with out
pourings of sawdust-like material at
the breaks, are sure signs that the
European corn borer is getting in its
deadly work.
Many times the borers enter near
the junction of the leaf and stalk. Any
small hole with sawdust-like material
coming out of it indicates the presence
of borers. Several borers frequently
work in one stalk, reducing it to a
mere shell. The nutriment to the de-
Veloping ear is cut off by this injury
The stalk is weakened and eventually
breaks.
Some of the borers leave the stalk
and enter the ears through the husk
and also through the stem and cob.
Here they feed upon the immature
grain and tunnel the cob. The injury
to the ears and stalks is further in
creased by a soft rot which often fol-
lows the work of the borers and re-
duces the interior of infested plants
to decaying, putrid mass with an
odor.

Two Generations Each Year

There are two generations of the Eli
ropean corn borer each year. They are
continuously damaging the corn in in
tested fields from before tasseIling
time until winter stops their activities.
They remain as nearly full-grown bor-
ers within their tunnels throughout
the winter and resume feeding in the
spring.
The chief danger to the Nations
corn crop lies in the possibility of
borer-infested plants being transported
into sections where the borer does not
already exist. To prevent this. ali
plant quarantine laws must be strictly
enforced with regard to plants likely
to be infested
quarantine measures must be sup-
plemented by careful cleah-up opera-
tions in infested areas. Destroy all
plant material likely to harbor borers.
