prepared by the United States Department
Of Agriculture.)
The fight to protect the corn belt
against the advance of the European
corn bOrer is now to be concentrated
In Ohio, where according to reports
to the United States Department OF
Agriculture. infestations of the pest
have been found along the entire
southern shore of Lake Erie over
strip varying from six to twelve miles
in width and extending to within SIX
miles Of the Indiana border. 1t Is
at the western end of the lake that the
borer also threatens a descent upon
this country from Canada by crossing
the Detroit river. The department
is preparing to reduce its efforts
against the pest in other places and
in cooperation with Canadian and
Ohio authorities concentrate them in
Ohio.
Heavy Infestation in Ontario.
For some months the Canadian
authorities have been combating the
pest on the northern shore of the lake,
where 1t has gained strong foothold,
practically devastating entire corn
fields in the vicinity Of st. Thomas.
A three days heavy wind at the period
when the moths were flying Is De-
lieved to have blown some OF them
across the lake into Ohio.
Every possible effort, it Is said, Will
be made to hold down the infestations
on the Ohio and Pennsylvania side OF
the lake. Farmers will be urged to
cut their cornstalks as close to the
ground as possible, as the insect makes
it's winter home in the stalk. For this
reason, too, fall blowing Is recon-
mended. The Ohio authorities 1t Is
said, are fully alive to the need for
checking the spread Of the pest, and
are cooperating with the department
and conducting work of their own to-
ward this end.
This is the first instance known In
which the corn borer was carried
any great distance by wind. 1t has
been known, though, to travel by water
in floating cornstalks, and in this man.
ner has made Its way to islands. This
is one ominous feature of the presence
of the borer in Ohio, 1t is said. At
present the infestations are in strip
that drains into Lake Erie. and float

Farmers Vote Unanimously to
Accept Report of Commit

TO ORGANIZE AT ONCE
Corporation viii Be Formed Through
Which Grain Will Be Handled
From the Time II Is Raised
Until It Reaches Consumer.

Chicago-Representatives of the
farmers of the country in convention
voted unanimously to accept the re-
port Of the Committee of Seventeen
which provided for formation of a CO.
operative agency to market the ma
TONS grain.
The report was adopted after a two
day fight in which various delegates
sought to have it amended so that
pooling OF grain by the farmers would
be compulsory instead of optional as
provided in the report. An amendment
to this effect was defeated by a vote
of 81 to 3S.
Another amendment, offered by Carl
Williams of Oklahoma, that the pool
ing be made compulsory In states
where wheat is the predominant grain
also was defeated and the convention
then unanimously adopted the COM
mittee Of Seventeen report.

Under the plan a non-stock corpora
tion will be formed through which the

it is raised until it reaches the man.
%ufacturer or consumer. Local agen-
cies will be formed throughout the
country and elevators, terminal ware
house corporations, port corporations,
service departments and other sub
sidiary departments will be a part Of
the plan.
Each member of the corporation will
pay a fee of $40 which will be used for
expenses. Surplus over expense will
be returned to members.
The organization will be governed
by a board of directors elected by the
grain growers.
The Committee of Seventeen has
been at work for six months on the
plan. During that time it has held
hearings in all the grain states, called
scores of persons to discuss the plan
and sifted dozens of proposals.
Organization of the corporation will
be begun Immediately and 1t is hoped
to have 1t working in time to handle
part OF the 1921 crop.
The farmers conference voted TO
have the Committee of Seventeen d.
vide the grain growing sections Of the
country into twenty-one districts, ap-
p%ortioned according to the value Of
the grain marketed in the past ten
years. Market centers, rather than
state lines, would govern the limits
of the districts, it was stated.
