the strenuous efforts being made by

age" which helps in the elimination
of waste products. Since the veg
etables differ in the amount and
kind of minerals and vitamins pres
ent in them, Miss Macdonald urg-
es people to use a variety of veg
etables, both fresh and canned, in
the diet throughout the year. In
preparing asparagus, it is best to
steam it in order to save more Of
the flavor and as much of the food
value as possible. Wash the as
paragus carefully. If the root end
of the stalk is hard, cut off, cook
separately, press through a strain
er and use the pulp for soup. Lay
the tips on a rack in a roasting
pan, add water just about up to the
rack, cover and steam until tender.
Arrange on plate, season with but
ter, pepper and salt. Or, add a
little chopped parsley to the melt
ed butter before pouring over the
asparagus. Or, serve with White
Sauce for which use 1 tb. butter;
1 to 2 tb -four; milk. Melt
butter, stir il flour, add milk, stir
until mixture boils, season to taste.
Cream OF asparagus soup is partic-
ularly nice. Use White Sauce as
given above. But tender asparagus
in about 1-2 inch lengths and add
to White Sauce. Also, add the
pulp from the hard ends, cooked
and pressed through strainer. A
bit of onion flavor may be added, if
desired. Asparagus is also very
delicious used in salads. Arrange
cooked asparagus on lettuce leaves,
with rings or strips of red
or green pepper or strips of pimen-
to. Serve with Mayonnaise dress
ing; or with plain French dressing.

ARMY WORM IN SUSSEX
Pest Has Been Found in Milton
and Lewes Communities

One of the latest pests to invade
Sussex county is the "army worm"
This insect was found in the Milton
and Lewes communities by County
Agent c. r. Snyder and Mrs. c. W.
Klopp, Instructor of Vocational Ag-
ricultural at Milton. This is not a
new or stronge pest in the county,
nor does its abundance in one year
indicate that it will be abundant the
next year. Like many other cater
pillars, it is with US every year, but
only occasionally does it become
serious pest. No doubt the weather
conditions this spring had some
thing to do with its appearance this
year. The worm is related to the
common cut worm but is more of
a general feeder; travelling in dense
masses and attacking corn, wheat,
clovers. grasses, soy beans, COW
peas, etc. Like the cut worm this
pest seeks its food chiefly during
the night when it travels in devast-
ing armies, destroying the green
crops as it goes and during the day
time hides in the ground, except in
serious outbreaks when it feeds
both day and night. The worm is
about 1 1-2 inches long, dark in
color with three yellowish stripes
down its back and stripe down
each side. Usually they have from
three to five broods in a season.
When the worms begin to travel
from field to field, invasion may be
checked TO certain extent by
plowing deep furrow around the
infected field making it as deep and
clean cut as possible. As the
worms congregate in the furrow
they may be killed by dragging, by
pouring crude oil or kerosene on
them or by burning. Another
method of destroying them is to dig
post holes about a foot deep every
ten or fifteen feet in the bottom of
the furrow. This trap will catch
many of them where they can be
destroyed. The poisoned bran mash
bait is one of the easiest methods
Of destroying the worm. This is
made of 100 pounds of bran, three
pounds of Paris green, seven gal
Ions of cheap molasses and about
seven gallons Of water. Mix the
bran and poison dry. Then mix the
and water separately, and
mix into the poisoned bran until
the whole mass is moist. This is
sufficient to treat about ten acres.
Broadcast this over the field in the
evening so the worms will have
chance at it before it dries. Do
not let poultry get this bait. Plow
the infected fields in the fall in or
der to destroy the alternating lar
vac. 1t is advisable that the farm
ers in the localities where the worm
is now found to be on the watch
and be prepared to deal with it
promptly.
