SOW two drill widths of millet between
corn and the nearby fields Of wheat
and rye. The more quickly this is
done the better. so as TO make as good
growth as possible Of this trap crop
before the bugs attack It. When the
bugs have migrated into the trap
crop It should be plowed seven or
more inches deep. Care must be
taken to pillow deeply and well, then
to pack the ground with a drag or
harrow or roller. Little time or work
Is required TO make this strip and the
cost is small. 1t has hitherto been
found very profitable.

prepared by the United States Depart.
ment Of Agriculture.)
Energetic measures against the
chinch bugs which threaten injury not
only to the wheat and rye crops of
Missouri but to corn as we'll are
urged by the bureau of entomology,
United States Department of Agrieul-
ture, In view Of reports Of an impend-
ing outbreak of the pest In that state.
Widespread and severe infestations
of the pest are reported in the whole
central Mississippi valley region,
starting In northern Texas and ex-
tending In northeasterly direction
over Oklahoma, Kansas and Missouri,
touching Nebraska, and extending
across Illinois and Indiana into Mich
igan.
Generally Distributed Through State.
The chinch bugs, latest advices say,
have had mild winter and are gen.
orally distributed throughout the
Missouri wheat and rye fields, breed
Ing in considerable numbers in the
st. Louis neighborhood early In May.
The farmers, 1t is said, have been
watching the pest more closely than
usual this spring, but all of them do
not know yet that there is danger that
their corn may be damaged worse
than normal last yea:. Wheat is
likely to ripen one or two weeks
earlier this year, and the rains have
delayed the planting of corn.
The bugs are certain to migrate
when the wheat ripens and the corn
will be so backward that damage by
the bugs is likely to be very severe.
1t is well to expect the bugs to begin
migrating to corn as soon as the wheat
butts begin to harden into maturity
ten days before the heads are ripe.
Any barrier work or creosote repellant
line work should begin as the bugs
viii migrate in increasing numbers as
the wheat stalk ripens upward. The
binder will shake loose those not al
ready out and stragglers will continue
to migrate in serious numbers for five

Ambassador From Germany, If

DR.. Frederick Sthamer Is to be
offered the place Of German ambassa-
dor to Washington-if the need Of an
ambassador should arise. Like his
predecessor, Count Won Bernstorff, he
has an American wife. She was a
Miss Pollig, but nobody seems to know
where her home was. She went to
Hamburg as a child and was married
about 80 years ago. Her husband is
sixty-One years old.
DR.. Sthamer, at the time Of his
selection, was the German ambassa-
dor at London. Although there was
naturally little beyond purely formal
intercourse between him and the al
lied diplomats In London, except pos
sibly the Italian, his relations with the
British foreign Office had been easy
and fairly cordial. In fact, he was
so satisfied that 1t was said he would
refuse the Washington post If 1t was
offered to him on the ground that he
did not care to ''have to break official
