WIRE WORM APPEARS
"-r. I'M InXVA

Cornfieltls in some parts of Iowa are
suffering from the depredations OF the
wire worm, according to +. G. Church
ill, of the Agricultural Extension De-
partmcnt of Iowa State College. The
wire worm varies from one-half to one
and one.quarter inches in length and
is reddish brown in color. The click
worm The exact life history of the
wire worm is not known but it is
thought to live in the ground from two
to four years. VI.
The worms usually do the worst dam.
age in wet ground and during the first
or second year after sod. If a field in.
tested with wire worms is to be planted
to corn next year, the present corn
crop should be cut for silage or fodder
this fall, manure should be applied to
the land and then it should be plowed.
The manure will tend to force the corn
along in the spring in spite of the dam
age Of the worms Narrowing and disc.
ing once or twice will help to kill 4
great many of the worms and force 9TH
crs near the surface where they will
be killed during the winter.
The corn root aphis Qouse) has also
been found on some Iowa farms. 1t is
blush green in color and Injuries the
corn by sucking the sap from the
growing plants. AS no OtIleT crop Is
likely to be injured by the corn root
aphis, rotation of crops is the best
method by which a field can be relieved
from a serious attack. r'.E
Practically all OF the common insects
which injure corn can be controlled
by following careful rotation of crops,
declares Mr.. Churchill. Usually the
wire worm will not bother the grain
to any great extent if the land is not
left in meadow or pasture more than
two years The corn root worm will
not bother where land is not left in
corn more than two years in success
sion.

ident of the American Farm Bureau
Federation, said yesterday.
Railway laborers who have cut down
their volume of work and repeatedly
truck for higher wages will find them
selves hit hard by the situation they
have helped to create, Mr. Howard said
predicting that the advances in prices
A hey have caused will offset the wage
increases they receive.
The first result of the railroad tie-up,
eIr. Howard said, has been an made
auate movement of the new crop, while
.as high as % per cent of last year s
crop still remains in local elevators in
some sections. Not knowing whether
hey will be able to deliver grain when
sold, and facing high demurrage
charges, storage rates and interest
charges, buyers of grain are offering
farmers prices much lower than those
quoted at terminal elevators. This
tends to increase the margin between
producers and consumers, Mr.. Howard
pointed out.
} Figuring the increased margin on
each bushel of wheat at ten cents, Mr..
Howard showed that the loss on the
millions of bushels consumed annually
would be staggering sum.
Charging up to labor the blame for
The grain situation, Mr. Howard said:
''There is no more damnabie point
ct which labor can attack our economic
fracture and, / might add, no surer
way of cutting its own throat than by
cutting down the efficiency and the car
rying capacity of our arteries of trans
portation -
