Retired Farm Expert, 76, Aids
Gardeners in Fighting Insects

The fact that there is more to
Victory gardening than preparing
the soil, planting the seed and Gull
tivating the plants has brought 76-
year-old H. B. Derr out of retire
ment.
Mr.. Derr, who retired to his home
near Fairfax in 1888 after more than
80 years with the Agriculture De-
partment, brought out his collec-
ton of more than 200 specimens of
plant insects and diseases and their
control when he saw instructions
to Victory gardeners did not include
this important phase of gardening.
"It's all right to know how to
plant garden and cultivate the
plants" Mr.. Derr said. but it's just
as important to know the diseases
and insects that each year take a
greater toll of agricultural produc-
ton and how to combat them"
Already he has taken his exhibit
to II country schools where he has
lectured to students and teachers
on plant-disease control. The collec-
ton also was exhibited this month
to the Virginia Academy of Sci
ences at Richmond.
Mr.. Derr first became interested
in science when as a boy in Illinois
he discovered a shell formation in
the soil near his home He began
to study soil strata and this led to

Star Staff Photo.

further study at the Illinois Agri-
cultural College and finally to his
work with the Agriculture Depart
ment
While explaining the mysteries OF
some of the insects that affect gar
den plants he repeats over and over
that insects do not have brains, but
have instinct, and this leads them
into doing the things that protect
them and aid in propagation.
Look at the harlequin bug" he
says. You would hardly believe
these little bugs, which destroy cab
bage plants, do some of the things
they do unless you actually see them.
They lay their eggs in little barrels
complete with hoops and bungholes,
and when the young hatch, the lids
OF the kegs fly up to let them out.
The way you have to control
these little insects is to kill mamma
and papa before they start house
keeping, for once the household is
established there is nothing to be
done for another year"
Mr.. Derr says that each year in
sects are taking greater toll of
food plants in this country. He
believes that we should teach plant
disease and insect control in the
primary grades so that the coming
generations will realize the i'm
portance Of ridding the country of
these agricultural pests.

Virginia School Buses
Ordered 10 Garry
Accident Insurance
209o of 2,400 Vehicles
Are Affected by Ruling
Of Education Board
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
RICHMOND, May pa regula-
ton requiring all Virginia school
buses to be covered by personal
injury and property damage liza
bility insurance was adopted here
today by the State Board of Educa-
ton.
Steps also were taken by the
Board, following conference with
Gov. Darden and Budget Director
u H Bradford, to deal with deficits
expected in State teachers COL
leges.
One result of resolution passed
by the Board regarding the deficits
will be an increase of SIS per year
in fees charged students at the
teacher colleges.
The boards action to require in
surance coverage of all school buses
was in the form of a regulation
which will deny State school-bus aid
funds to those localities where buses
are not insured properly. In other
words, local school boards must see
that buses in their jurisdiction are
insured in order to receive their
share of the $500, ,000-a-year voted
by the 1912 General Assembly for
State subsidization of county and
city school bus operations.
Mandate Is New.
Heretofore there has been no
mandate that school buses must
carry the liability insurance. AS a
rough guess" DR.. Dabney S. Lam
caster, State superintendent of pub
lie instruction, estimated that 20
per cent of the States 2,400 school
buses are not now so insured.
Much of the boards meeting to-
day was given over to the discussion
with Gov. Darden and Mr. Bradford
of the fiscal difficulties threatening
the state teacher colleges. On the
basis of signs that enrollments will
shrink greatly next year because of
war conditions, it has been calcu-
lated that three of the schools may
have combined deficit as high as
$4,000. The three are Radford
State Teachers College, Farmville
State Teachers College and Madi-
son College at Harrisonburg. The
fourth. Mary Washington College at
Fredericksburg, now appears able to
stay within its. income.
Main Points of Resolution.
The boards resolution on the def
1cits question included these two
main points:
Presidents of the institutions were
authorized to contract with faculty
members for next year, making any
adjustments deemed advisable in
the light of anticipated enrollments.
The charge per pupil was in
creased SIS a year to help cover
the increased cost of food and
other War-sWollen items of expense.
DR.. Lancaster said the board
wanted to make it plain that it
did not desire any wholesale dis
missals of faculty members but that,
on the contrary. the presidents
should do everything possible to
hold intact the faculties built up.

lures to the five-day care centers
in the city.
The IS troops, numbering 6s5
girls. purchased the pictures by do
mating their troop dues for one

OF the work the girls have been

hours as part of their program
OF community service.

supervisor of the nurseries, to sug-
gest an appropriate gift. DR.. Tut

ing in unison of the Scout and

formed troops.

uty commissioner, will make the
