sively. The worm does its damage dur
ing the spring growing season. From
July Is to August Is the pupae are
inactive in the ground. Near the mid
die of August the adult moths appear.
1t is known that lights have great
attraction for these night flying moths.
The drawbacks are that the moths do
not fly evenly on different nights and
that those caught in the traps are
mostly males, while the females, just
ready to lay their eggs. are the ones
sought for destruction. A record of
light-trap results showed that of 1900
moths taken, 1920 were males.
Bait traps are more effective. Fer
mented molasses has strong attrac-
ton for the female moth, and the
attraction is as strong in the afternoon.
when the females are laying eggs, as
it is at night. Entomologists in the
United States and Canada are devotins
much attention to the bait traps.
Summer Fallow Helps
When it was noticed that the moths
prefer loose soil for the depoSiting of
eggs. experiments We're made along this
line. It was found that land which has
been summer fallowed and left un.
touched after the first part of July
had slight crust on the surface that
was unfavorable to the laying of eggs
by the moth. A field survey in 1920
showed only S.5 per cent loss on sum
mer fallow.
Early spring blowing may be anothe,
control method worthy of trial In
the spring of 1920 fields that were
plowed very early showed much
smaller damage from the cutworm. I,
is believed that this was due to thu
fact that the eggs mad Matched out il
the fall and that the worms were small
at the time when early blowing cut of
their food supply temporarily.

The pale western cutworm standl
as the most battling insect ever In.
flicted upon the crops Of Montans
farmers. For the past four years the
pale western cutworm has been the
most serious of Montana insect pests
and to date no effective method OF
control has been devised. Partial con.
troll seems possible through summer
fallow and early spring blowing. &C
rording to a recent report from the OF.
flee of the state entomologist at the
State college. Bozeman.
The pale western cutworm made its
appearance in Montana in 1918. Its
first serious damage was done in 1913.
The years 1910, 1920 and 1921 found II
doing damage that ran into hundreds
of thousands Of dollars. In the past
two years in many sections Of the state
large areas have been practically de-
vastated as far as wheat crops 60.
1t was learned early that usual con-
troll methods would not work against
the pale western cutworm. The worm
works under the surface of the ground,
making poison bran mash ineffective.
The drilling of poisoned mash into the
ground gave only partial results and
did not save crops. The worms fol-
lowed the drilled rows Of wheat, eating
each plant off at the root as they
travelled across the field.
Many Experiments
Because the worms followed rows,
attempt was made to cross-drill a field
and force them to come above ground
between ridges. where poison could lie
available for them. Only partial sue
cess was obtained.
1t was clearly seen that the worms
worked through soft. loose dirt. Pack.
ing was tried. and fair results were
obtained. Heavy packing slowed pro-
gress of the worms, but did not save
the crop.
Attempts at controlling the pest
through treated seed proved ineffective,
and resulted only in lower seed ger
mination in many instances.
Trap lights were tried out extern

The burning need for all creameries
to grade cream and pay according to
quality is rapidly gaining ground. Not
only have some Of the smaller cream
cries realized the great importance Of
having only a first class raw product
to work with but some of the larger
interests as we'll are falling into line.
A statement recently given out by the
Department of Agriculture is to the
effect that about one half of the butter
inspected by their men grades seconds
and the difference in selling price be-
tween that Of the highest grade and Of
seconds was about 6h cents per
pound-a difference which is sufficient
to make or break any creamery in
Montana.
Why Grade Cream
There is demand for first grade
butter every month in the year far
exceeding the supply. The only way
to satisfy this demand is to improve
the quality Of the raw product. The
producers Of raw milk experienced the
same thing and not until they got
