The Mexican Bean Beetle

The Mexican bean beetle, former
ly known principally in the South
western States, has spread very
rapidly during the past ten years
through the Eastern States; in
many localities it has been abund-
ant for season and then has sub
sided, only to reappear in injurious
numbers two or three years later.
1t is the most serious insect enemy
of edible beans wherever it appears
in the United States and attacks all
kinds of common garden beans, tep-
airy beans, lima beans and kidney
beans. The Mexican bean beetle
when fully mature is copper-color-
ed and bears 16 black dots on it's
wings. 1t appears in the fields about
the time the earliest planted beans
show above ground, and all stages
of the pest may be found throughout
the entire summer if not controlled.
The injury caused by the beetle is
easily distinguished from that of
other insect pests. The beetles and
larvae feed on the under surface of
the leaves, the adult often cutting

MILK USED IN BREAD MAKING
IMPROVES NUTRITIVE VALUE

In making white bread the use OIL
whole or skim milk to supplement
the lxpteins and minerals of wheat
fou&s strongly recommended by
the united States Department of
Ag Sllture. Since bread is staple
foo6tuff, the use of milk in bread
would insure a better nourished
poRaAtion.
n4Slfldm milk may be used in
bread making with good results. In
addition to supplementing the nutri-
tive value it improves the general
appearance of the bread loaf and en-
hances its ease of manufacture.
There are, however, certain diff
ferences in fours and in their reac-
ton to skim milk in the dough
which influence the ease of bread
manufacture and necessitate special
attention to certain stages of the
process. In order to determine what
these differences in fiours are and
how they affect the handling of
bread made with dried milk, a
study was made by the Bureau of
Dairy Industry of the United States
Department of Agriculture.
1t was found that the hard spring
wheat fours used in the expert
ments reacted more favorably to the
use of dried skim milk than did
winter wheat f1ours. The range of
fermentation time in which coughs
give good bread is increased by US
ing skim milk. This adds to the
ease of manufacture and is very
important property. The lactose of
the milk imparts a desirable golden
brown color to the crust of the
baked loaf. The texture and color
of the crumb are also improved.

Pine aStraM, for Strawberries

A 3,OOO-acre fire in the strawber-
ry belt of southeastern Louisiana
recently caused considerable losses
by destroying large quantities of
pine STRAW" in the woods. Huge
quantities of pine straw are used
every year as a protective covering
for the strawberry beds, says the
United States Forest Service. Lob
Jolly pine straw is used in prefer
ence to that of longleaf pine because
it rots quickly and practically dis
appears by the end of the summer.
Woodlot owners in this section sell
their yearly fall of needles at prices
ranging from SO to 81 per acre and
averaging about 81. Their woods
are kept remarkably clean, all hard
wood brush, fallen branches, and
other debris being gathered in piles
before the straw is raked together
to be carried to the fields.

Keeping Records Pays

more eggs in April than in Novem-
Der, but he did not realize, until he
had kept an account book, that he
Melted 81 more profit in November;
this taught. him the value of early
Matching in order to obtain eggs
when prices were highest. Anoth-
er farmer found, after keeping
records and accounts on his farm
business, that he was paying $1.07
for feed with only 81 returns; this
led him to study his feed costs and
put them on a better basis. The
keeping of records on one farm led
the owner to the realization that on
his particular farm a combination
of dairying, poultry raising, orchard
cultivation, and potato growing
would provide the most steady in
come.

RURAL WEATHER LORE
IS FREQUENTLY TRUE

Intelligent farmers nowadays are
not greatly interested in predictions
in almanacs or in other long-range
fiction, according to DR.. w. J.
Humphreys, of the Weather Bureau
They rely on official reports by ra-
dio and on their own observations.
Scientific forecasting of the wealth
err does not place reliance on many
of the old signs, particularly of
| those that are supposed to forecast
one season from occurrences in the
previous season.
But Doctor Humphreys says that
many of the sayings in regard to
the weather that have been handed
down from generation to genera
ton are based on many observa-
lions and are often reliable. For ex-
ample, he says a warning of some
value but not highly reliable is en-
bodied in the verse:
A rainbow in the morning
Is the shepherds warning;
A rainbow at night
Is the shepherds delight.
"a pretty good guess" is to be
found in:
If the sun sets in gray
The next will be a rainy day.
One of the very best indicators
of the weather for the day." Doctor
Humphreys says, sis the state of the
dew in the morning. 1t gathers on
grass and other exposed objects
when they are cool enough to con-
dense it out of the air, just as
moisture is condensed out of the
air on the side of a pitcher when
filled with ice water. Now, the
grass and other outdoor things cool
considerably only on still, clear
nights, the kind that occur during
a spell of fine weather and at no
other time. Hence a heavy dew
means that the air was still and the
sky clear, at least during the latter
half of the night. And it is pretty
certain that if there was neither
wind nor clouds during that time,
the day will be a good one for all
outside work. On the other hand,
if there is no dew in the morning
it is almost certain that either the |
sky was clouded or that there was
wind, or both; and both, |
as a rule, precede a general rain
storm by 6 to IL or even "a hours,
according to circumstances.
Consequently Doctor Humphreys
says there is much reason back of |
The two proverbs:
When the grass is dry at morning
light
Look for rain before the night.
When the dew is on the grass
Rain will never come to pass.

To, AgricuZturists

When sending a seed-sample to
the U. S. Department of Agriculture,
or elsewhere, to be analysed for
purity and viability, it is important
to send enough to represent the
bulk of the seed in question. Send
at least 2 ounces of grass seed,
white or alsike clover, or of seeds
smaller than these; ounces of red
or crimson clover; and 1 pound of
cereal, vetches, or seeds of larger
size.
Although alsike clover is used very
little. for ensilage, good silage can
be made from it either alone, with
corn, or some other grass crop. The
secret of success lies in thorough
packing. One more man is usually
required for tramping than is neces-
sary in ensiling corn. Alsike should
be put into the silo fresh and moist;
if it gets dry between the time of
being cut and put into the silo, wa
ter should be added. The formation
Of air pockets should be avoided or
spelling will result.
Careful handling of potatoes, par
ticularly where they are to be held
for storage, will largely prevent
loss from Fusarium rot. This dis
ease is responsible for the loss of
from 5 to 10 per cent of the annual
crop, and in some cases individual
growers have lost so per cent of
their crop. Mechanical injuries such
as cuts, bruises and skin abrasions,
caused by improper handling, are
the chief source of Fusarium rot
Even minute skin abrasions may be-
come the seat of fungous infection.
Moving a liberal quantity of soil |
with the tubers and protecting them
from the sharp edges of the forks, !:
shakers, etc., of the diggers by rub !
Der or burlap will reduce mechani-
cal injury.
Many alfalfa growers, who cut the
hay at full bloom or in the early pod
stage of maturity practice espec-
tally common in the North Central
and Rocky Mountain States-could
produce nay or better quality II they
would cut it when ITO to IA in
bloom or when new growth starts
from the crowns, irrespective of the
bloom. This would advance the time
of cutting a week or so for the first
cutting and increase the seasonal
tonnage because of the longer per-
lod given to subsequent cuttings.
Large quantities of late-cut alfalfa
are marketed annually in the United
States and most of this type of hay
grades only U. S. No. or No. 3 be-
cause of insufficient leaves or lack
Of color. Late-cut alfalfa also has
hard and somewhat woody stems,
which, although not very objection /
able to horse or stock-cattle feed
ers, are not wanted by dairymen
who are the chief buyers of alfalfa

through to the leaf and giving the
foliage a lacelike appearance. While
the larva feeds on the under-stde OF
the leaf, it leaves the upper surface
intact; the plant tissue is cut away
in narrow parallel sections about
the length of the insects body, but
narrow strips between these sec
tions are left untouched, resulting
in a peculiar network. After the
foliage is destroyed, the insects may
attack the pods and even the stems,
and when abundant they have been
known to completely destroy a bean
crop in about four weeks. Consid-
cradle work on control measures
has shown that the materials which
will give best control without injur-
ing the plants are magnesium ar
senate or a good grade of calcium
arsenate with lime, applied as either
a dust or spray to the under-sides of
the leaves.
