Of the seaport quarantine stations of such
states as might be willing to part with
them. Most states were glad to be re-
lieved Of the expense of carrying on a
work that was essentially one for nation
al rather than local protection; bur some
Of them hesitated to give up local con-
troll, especially in the early days when
ideas Of proper quarantine methods diff
fered radically, owing TO the lack Of in
formation now available as to the trans
mission of the great plague diseases.
However, one by ore the stations were
taken over until only New York was left;
and now the agreement for its transfer
has been reached and formal action waits
only on the presentation by the state of

Urges Bankers to Take Initiative
in Exterminating Cinch Bugs

Unless the Missouri farmers, particu-
larly of the counties surrounding ST.
Louis, quickly awake TO the truth Of the
slogsn, IAN ounce of prevention is worth
pound Of cure" the devastation of grain
crops By ohinch bugs in this section will
surpass in 1921 even that Of 1920, when
The losses TO farmers through the actiy-
tiles Of the pest were more than $4,000.
900, according TO Prof. A. C. Burrill, ex-
tension elomologist Of the University of
Missouri, who was in ST. Louis recently
promoting the sounding of such warnings
to farmers through the banks.
Professor Burrill approaches bankers
10 sound the warning Of calamity to crops
il proper preventive measures are not
taken by the farmers, on the ground thar
bankers should be spprised Of the risk
on loans made on probable crop results
to farmers who neglect to take precau-
lions against the probable attack Of
chinch bugs next season. These bugs
are now mating, he said. and assembling
their forces for bigger attack on grain
than has ever before been experienced.
ORGANIZATION NEEDED
IAN organized movement Is neees-
sary," said Burrill, ''for the burning start
ing now and continuing through the re-
mainder Of the winter, Of the wastage on
farms which harbor these pests until
vegetation starts in the spring.
Bankers viii realize the importance
Of such movement when they under
stand ,hs; in Missouri the loss to farm
ers from chinch bugs in 1920 amounted
to more than $2O.OC0,0OO. In the event
that nothing is done this winter to de-
stroy the bugs, there will be a greater
epidemic this year, with probable crop
loss of from s8o.890,e80 TO slO0.00O.OO0.
"The rayages of the chinch bugs in
Missouri have been particularly disas-
trous in the five counties in the vicinity
Of ST. Louis. These counties, St. Louis,

gomery, have experienced the losses caus-
ed by the devastsiions Of these pests be-
cause they have been guilty Of neglect,
what | would call sloppy farming.
THE remedy is available to all farm
ers. Let them burn now all their grass
grown fence rows, their waste lands and
every thick tuft Of grass at the roots, and

ter weather.
MAY IMPAIR FINANCEc
AS all bankers know. the farmers Of
Missouri already have suffered great loss
cs BY depreciation in value of their crops.
and if they are to suffer further losses
ihis year by an epidemic of chinch bugs,
it is very easy to see how their financial
standing will be impaired" !"
rBurill suggests that where no such
cooperative movement has yet been
started. the bankers take the initiate and
urge the farmers and business men Of
the towns to organize for the purpose of
exterminating chinch bugs, by burEng
fence rows and all waste vegetation while
it Is too cold for the bug to migrate.
Professor Burrill said that only by de-
stroying these shelters can these unwel-
come guests be prevented from staying
four or five years longer, and the food
bill will mount with the increase in the
number Of bugs each year. He said this
united effort was tried out in one Kansas
county several years ago and since that
time the farmers Of the community have
not been troubled with chinch bugs TO
any great extent, and they have been en-
abled to produce an average of about
three bushels of wheat more to the acre
than farmrs of other communities who
failed to adopt this method of ridding
themselves of one Of the farmers worst
pests
