PL0W AND CULTIVATE
TO KILL June BUGS
Beetles Are Parents of White
Grub, Harmful to Corn.
II Takes Three Years for One o. In.
sects to Develop From Egg Which
Is Deposited i'm Meadows and
Sometimes In CornfeIds.
By CHARLES C. wENTzLER9

(By CHARLES C. WENTZLER)
Have you ever seen the so-called
June bu,, buZzing around an electric
light or seen them swarm on the side
walk in the gray of spring mornings
They are big, dark-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 laundering, 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 90 down 10 death in swarming
around the arc lights of n city. They
are SO sensitive To light that II flame.
miles away, Will attract them.
1t takes three years for one Of these
beetles 10 develop from the egg. The
beetles deposit their eggs in meadows
and sometimes I'm corntields. The tiny
grubs which emerge from the eggs de-
velop into thick, tleshy. white gruhs
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 10 the habit Of the beetle in
depostlng 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 10
pillow and cultivate SO that their
natural food is destroyed and they are
starved To death before planting the
field. Some farmers let the chickens
follow the pillow and destroy hundreds
of them in this way.

SUNFLOWER TO MAKE BUTTER
Novel Experiment to Be Conducted ar

"Sunflower butter" may become a

experiment running at the Kansas
State Agricultural college.

better. or as well. as sister cows who
are subsisting on sorghum or corn

status of the sunflower, Kansas most
persistent weed. will be changed to
that of one of the states most useful
plants.
silo at the experiment station has
been filed with the common wild sun
flower. the state flower and inspiration
of Kansas poets. The feeding test will
be started in the near future.
Dairymen are hopeful that sunflow-

barrel capes which only reach TO the
knees and other models which cover
the dress entirely.
A lovely barrel wrap designed by
Max was made Of musquash. lined with
deep blue and rose brocade and fin
ished off with an immense Follower
collar of kolinsky. This was a regal
affair and Of course costly, rs the mus
quash was in an exquisite quality. l
have seen similar models in>mink and
in broadtail, with the Innings always
of the richest and softest brocades or
striped silks.
For girls the latest thing is the short
fur wrap which is shaped like n fichu
and which crosses in front and fastens
at the back with {. large button and
loop. This is an eminently coy gar
ment. and SO becoming. 1t must of
course be worn by a girl of slender
figure. otherwise the full fur over the
shoulders and chest would make the
rest of the figure look clumsy. But
given the average American girl-tall,
slender ana graceful-a fichu wrap in
squirrel, beaver, musquash or ermine
is ideal.

PEKIN IS MOST

Anyone who cares TO investigate the
question of value in the different
breeds of ducks for practical purposes
that is, ducks that possess real mar
ket value-should read the history of
some of the immense duck farms
about Long Island, in New York state.
which are SO frequently illustrated
and written up in the leading poultry
journals.
Ii would seem from the pictures
shown. and the articles given, that
there is no thought given to any 9th
er breed OF ducks for their purposes
by these utility breeders than the Pc
kin ducks. This variety seems TO fill
the bill with them all the way through,
which. no doubt. is really the case, for
the Pekin stands at the head Of all
ducks when Ii comes TO real market
value. We have bred them and know
something about them. says a writer
In an exchange. The young stock
grow fast and soon reach market
able size, and the percentage of loss
In raising them is very small.
Pekin Is Good Layer.
We do not believe In the duck that
lays like u Leghorn hen. We have
read of her. but we never owned such
a duck, regardless OF breed. For n
certainty the Pekin duck does not lay
as many eggs i'm year rs Leghorn
hen, but that does not detract from
her value. for she does lay enough

source of supply of the Southern army

worth of young ducks from her eggs.
These young ducks have size and

ducks of the Pekin variety for the

Three Features of Value.
There are really three features of
value in the Pekin duck. One is her
eggs to be concerted into young ducks
as suggested. The other is her feath-
ers. which are abundant and of a soft
texture and valuable in the market
and she may be picked at least twice
a year The third point of value is
when the duck herself is fattened and
marketed.
Pekin ducks are great foragers. and
with favorable surroundings. such as
a pond or other water source, and
grass ID range over, they will pick up
I'm this way more than half of their
food. Ii is true they may be raised
under less favorable conditions. but
