FALL ARMY WORM HAS
MADE ITS APPEARANCE

A few complains of the fall army
worm are now being received by w.
j. Baerg, entomologist of the Agri-
cultural Experiment Station. This
is almost a month earlier than the
worm made its appearance last year
and year before, according to Mr..
Baerg. This insect did considera-
BILE damage to corn and cotton fields
in 1918 and in 1919 the damage
was even heavier and more localities
were attacked.
The army worm is also known as
the grass worm. 1t is a greenish
caterpillar which when full grown
is about one and half inches long.
A characteristic by which it is rec
ognized is a yellow. inverted Y on
the front side of the head. Other
important markings are two yellow
lines on each side along the back
and often a third pale line along
the middle of the back.
A number of generations of these
worms follow each other through
the summer. The first complaint
came from near Little Rock where
they are reported as doing serious
damage to young corn. The out
break of last year and the one be-
fore have shown that the army worm
may cause very severe injury to
both cotton and corn. They have
also shown that if the proper pre-
cautions are taken this injury may
be almost entirely prevented.
The worms when observed by the
planters are usually on their way
from some meadow to a field of corn
