Now is the Time to Burn for
Chinch Bugs.

Everybody in Bates County
knows what damage chinch bugs
do, so let's not expect nature to
kill all the bugs this winter, for
we might have a winter like last
winter was and if SO, and We
don't burn enough to expose
them to the winter weather, we
can expect as many bugs next
year as we had this year. Any
time during November and De-
cember when the ground is fairly
dry is the best time to burn all
bunch grass in the meadows or In
fields not turned under, all fence
rows, hedge rows. banks OF
creeks and bitches, where chinch
bugs make their winter quarters.
What chinch bugs stay in corn
stalks and corn shocks usually
are killed during the winter and
don't amount to as much as those
that spend the winter in other
places; 90 you can avoid millions
OF chinch bugs next year by
burning q few thonsand this fall.
Zach one burned this fall means

FARM BUREAU NOTES
BY Ira Drymon, County Agent
Increases Value of Manure. Acid
Phosphate Added to Manure
Makes FOurfOld Return,

Barnyard manure is used by
Missouri S most successful farm
ers as an economical means of in
creasing crop yields and main
tanning soil fertility. But the
composition of barnyard manure
as related to soil building and
permanent agriculture is not so
generally known. TO get the
largest returns from manure it is
necessary to supplement it with
the element in which it is def
cicnt.
a ton of average barnyard
manure contains 10 pounds OF
nitrogen, 2 pounds Of phosphorus
and s pounds of potassium, ac-
cording to l.. +. Wainscott, as
sistant in the soils department OF
the Missouri College of Agricul-
turc. Comparing this compost.
ton with a standard commercial
fertilizer such as 2-12-2, one can
see that manure is relatively de-
ficient in the element Of phos-
phorus, This element has been
sold in the grain or retained by
the animal body and is not found
in the manure in such large guam
titles as the nitrogen and potas-
SUM.
Although many factors influ-
encr the composition Of barn
yard manure, even the best meth
ODDS Of handling cannot correct
this deficiency. Only one meth
cd Of supplying the deficiency IS
known and that is to reinforce
| the manure with mineral phos-
lphatc.
Missouri soils are deficient il
phosphorus. On many OF them
phosphorus is thought to be the
limiting element. by adding 10
or 30 pounds Of Is per cent acid
phosphate to each load of man
urc. ii well balanced fertilizer
may be had at the least cost.
| Results from the Missouri En-
pertinent Station show that 800
invested in phosphate to refill
force manure will return 1856 per
cent ON the Investment.

Pineapple Growing
May Take Place of
Hawaiian Sugar

Honolulu, T. neutrality-suspicious.
of The Associated Press.)-The posi-
bility that pineapples shortly may chal-
lenge the ancient supremacy of sugar
cane as Hawaii's premier crop is seen
in the announcement that the islands
gross income this year from pineapples
will be about So, 100000. as compared
with the sugar crop value of sol ,50o.-
600. New acreage and improved meth
DDS in cultivation are expected TO in
crease the pineapple production by at
least so and perhaps 100 er CEN with
in a few years.
The production of canned pineapples
this year approximated 5,0O0. 200
eases, which sold at an average of
$4.25 a case. The acreage is estimated
at $4,000. which win be increased next
year because the packers have been
unable to supply the demand.
Chief among the improvements in
cultivating methods is the utilization
of the newly discovered paper mulching
process which has increased produc-
ton on certain lands by between %
and 80 per cent in experiments con-
Quoted this year. Use of the paper
mulch also reduced production costs
because it decreased the necessary
manual cultivation considerably, ac-
cording to planters.

America Imports
Huge Rice Tonnage

Shanghai. Correspondence of The
Associated Press.)-More than $500,
600 bags of rice, valued at S13.00O,-
600 in American money, have been i'm
ported into China from Rangoon dur
ing the current year. according to
statistics recently compiled here. This
is the largest quantity of foreign rice
ever imported by China. Seventy per
cent Of this total was unloaded at
Hongkong and Annoy. whence it was
transported into the interior. The
remainder came to Shanghai for distri-
button into North China. Chinese
merchants have ordered several addi-
tional lots of rice from Burma and
India, which will be sent as soon as
arrangements for its transportation
have been completed.
Rice prices have been rising in
Shanghai. but have been stabilized by
the importation of large quantities
from Burma. India and Saigon. From
Bangkok 00,OO0 bags have been i'm
ported. As there has been a great
deal of boarding of the cereal in the
larger cities. Chinese authorities have
issued orders threatening punishment
to any rice dealers who hoard their
supply. hoping to sell at a high price,
or who are caught profiteering at the
expense of the poor.
