FLOWERS ATTACKED
BY CORN EAR WORM
And CABBAGE LO0PER
fspecial to me PalIadium.)


INDIANAPOLIS. Ind, Sept. 30
For the first time in many years corn
ear worms and cabbage loopers are at
tacking greenhouse plants and How
ers and in numerous instances have
wrought 40 percent damage to chrys-
anthemums, according to bulletin IS
sued today by Frank n. Wallace, en-
tomologist under the state conserya-
ton department.
Mr.. Wallace points out that it is
the third brood of the corn ear worm
which is doing the damage, and the
fact it migrated to greenhouses is due
to a search for food, having practical
" eaten its way through the late
sweet corn crop.
Investigation shows that practically
each ear of late sweet corn Is Unrest
ed with from one to eight worms. The
worm also is found on beans, late to-
matoes, squashes and pumpkins.
There is no relief from this pest when
it attacks food products because the
poison sprays necessary to kill it rem
der the vegetables unfit for human
consumption.
In the opinion of Mr.. Wallace this
late brood of worms is favorable TO
small crop of worms next spring, pro-
viding we have frost in the next week
or so to kill them However, if this
brood survives this winter, devasta-
ton of crops from this source next
year probably will reach an alarming
figure, he believes.

WATCH OUT FOR
OPEN SEASON
Some Sportsmen Are Liable to
Make a Mistake if They Do
Not Brush up Again on Our
Game Laws.

An erroneous impression is get
ting abroad in regard to the open
ing of the season for fishing pike,
pickerel and muskellonge 1t has
been noised among the sports that
the first day of the fishing season
will be Decoration day, May SOth.
This is an error as the open season
does not start until June 1st. After
June 1st it will be lawful to catch
any kind of fish in Wisconsin waters
with the exception of bass. The
bass season does not open until July
1st although there is move now on
foot to get the legislative to open
the season on June 18th. This has
not been done thus far, however.
Game Wardens state that they
will make arrests of any and all fish
ernnen whom they catch advancing
the pike and pickerel season by fish,
ing for them on Decoration, day.
