THE CORN EAR WORM
HOW TO COMBAT THEM

The present season is marked by
the presence of great numbers of
corn ear worm, known in the South
as the cotton boil worm. The worms
are found boring into the tips of the
ears of corn and in the case of sweet
corn the entire ear is usually spoiled.
These worms come from eggs laid
by the moth on the fresh, green silk
just as it is being pushed out of the
ear earlier in the season. The worms
that escape death now will burrow in
the soil, and pass the winter there to
come out as moths next spring, but
the worms can be killed by busting
with 60 percent arsenate of lead just
as the silk is pushed out.
Coming at time when we are ex-
pecting the European corn-borer to
appear, it has caused more than usual
interest. 1t is really an old enemy in
Michigan, having been here since
early time, although ordinarily not
so plentiful.

GRAIN DEALERS OBJECT

The National Grain Dealers Asso-
citation is heard from again. This
time, rather than laying stress so
much on the fact that it wants to
protect the farmer from getting into
the mud and mire of cooperative as
sociations, such as the U. S. Grain
Growers, it announces that it must
protect, itself from such organiza-
tions and the class legislation it
claims agriculture is getting. At a
meeting held in Chicago recently,
plans were laid for course of action
to Illustrate plans of various inter-
ests" to do away with the middleman.
1t is easy to guess to whom they re-
fer as various interests" 1t is an
nounced that an active campaign will
begin next March, at the time of the
annual meeting. 1t is interesting to
note that the grain dealers are not
singing the song Of protection to the
farmers now so much as protection
to themselves from the farmers.
Business, the great keystone of
our prosperity, is organized for
business only" said Mr.. Griffin, presi-
dent of the Chicago Board of Trade.
"The time has come when it must
organize to take it's share in govern
ment, to protect itself against class
legislation" The farmers ask Mr..

ANIMALS AND HUMANS

l know farmer who has herd of
20 pure-bred Guernseys. He is a
good dairyman. He>took me through
his dairy barn, showed me his cows,
told me how much milk each gave,
how much each one was fed, what
kinds of feed each received.
He showed me the calves and told
me how carefully they were being
raised, what feeds were best for
them, or what feeds they made the
best gains, and so on.
Then he went into the house for
supper.
He introduced me to his wife and
family. There were three girls in the
family. The eldest was eight; the
second, FIVE; and the youngest was a
little over two.
We sat down to a supper of fried
potatoes, fried ham, dill pickles,
canned apples, strawberry jam and
currant jelly, bread, cake, peach pre-
serves and-coffee.
And after supper as we sat on the
porch with our cigars my friend COM
planned of indigestion. And when
later his wife came out both talked
to me about the girls-"not strong,
always something the matter with
them, if it wasn't one thing it was
another, can't get. them to eat
enough" and so on.
And l told him how ridiculous I
thought it was for a man to know
exactly what was the best feed for
his COWS and calves and not to know
what was the best food for himself
and family. And after a couple of
hours discussion they agreed with
me.

THE CURE

When you're really interested
In the job you've got to do,
When your heart and soul are in il
And you've got an end in view,
Then the hours mean nothing to you
And the outside pleasures fade
And you have no time to envy
Any man the Lord has made.
When you're really very busy
And your heart is in your work,
You miss the trifiing troubles
That so Oft annoy the shirk,
You forget life's petty trials,
And sometimes your dinner, too,
When you're really interested
In the task you've got to do,
Time passes mighty quickly
For the busy man each day,
1t is night before he knows it,
All the hours just slip away.
He isn't thinking mean things
OF his neighbors or the mob,
He is good to know and be with
When his mind is on his job.
If you think the world is dreary,
And you think that men are mean,
If you've time to see the vicious
And the vile and the unclean,
If you spot the faults of others,
Here's a certain cure for you:
Just get really interested
In the work you're hired to do.
