The bureau of entomology offers the
following information: The chinch
bugs spend the winter in clumps Of
bunch grass and under dead leaves
and rubbish. In the spring they
emerge and fly to fields of young
wheat, where they lay their eggs on
the root tops and stems. When the
wheat commences to ripen and dry,
the young bugs leave the wheat fields

preferable to built-in bins, as it is
possible TO remove them for cleaning.
