Burlington, June For the first
time in the history of Des Moines
county the corn flea beetle is devouring
the corn of the farmers in large guam
titles, and during the last week they
have been busy replanting.
The fact that the beetle was de-
stroying much Of the corn crop this
year was brought to the attention OF
County Agent Harley Walker, and aft
er visiting farm where the beetles
were numerous. he caught about a doz-
en- and sent them to Ames. asking that
some information as to how to kill the
pest be sent here.
Mr.. Walker stated that a method OF
spraying was practical for small fields
OF one or two acres. but large fields OF
thirty or forty acres would have to be
replanted.
II the weather is favorable for the
corn 1t will usually outgrow the flea
beetle That Is it will become a lathe
plant before the beetle can destroy it.
Some farmers have been rolling and
narrowing their corn in an effort to
keep the beetles off. 1t is doubtful
II this particular method results in
Keeping the beetle away. but the cul-
tivation makes the corn grow faster
and when 1t gets to a certain size the
efforts of the beetles to destroy it are
in vain.
Rolling the ground is also without
good results because it only serves to
knock the insects off the stalks and
soon after the roller is past they hop
back in the corn again.
The farmers in Des Moines county
appeared worried over the activities
of the little bug and are waiting fop
some data to combat the corn flea
Ames is expected at the county agents
office next week.
