with no change in the result. The
House argued at length after Mrs
Zelma Price. Washington, chairman
of the temperance committee, said
that an amendment would be offered
which would call for a statewide re-
ferendum. The original bill provided
that all counties in which a majority
of the House voted to reconsider,
| of those voting voted wet, would
have state liquor package stores,
operated under state commission.
Meantime, the House ways and
means committee, which handles all
tax matters, had killed several bills
calling for repeal of the Black Mar
i1et tax, leaving the state pretty
much as it was at the beginning of
the session; since the Senate lem
perance committee meantime had
killed all liquor control or legaliza-
ton bills except late conner by SEN
ator Buddy Newman of Issaquena
which calls for straight-out refer
endum vote. Mrs. Price announced in
the House that her committee would
make no further attempts to cope
with the liquor control problem.

The Senate, after heated debate
before crowd that packed the gal

Meantime the House turned down
the PriceRoss liquor control bill.
A direct vote was avoided by par

was offered for consideration, a
motion was made to strike out the
enacting clause" without which any
bill means nothing. Rep. Sam Alfred,
Jefferson, who made the motion,
said everybody had made up their

existence of this menace to the Wyo-
ming agricultural extension service
These insects, he continued, win
ter over in the ground as worms or
larvae. In the spring they become
active and attack early growing veg
citation without warning. Because
they are night feeders, oftentimes
they inflict considerable damage be-
fore their activities are noticed.
Searching for them at this time is
advisable because both armyworms
and army cutworms can be SO easily
controlled. Standard sodium fluosili-
cate bait, applied in the late after
noon, becomes Immediately available
to these malicious nocturnal feeders.
Therefore, farmers who observe
these pests can help themselves by
reporting cutworm damage to local
county agricultural agents or county
pest inspectors, Gardner suggested.
These experts will determine def
initely the species of worm or worms
involved and will give co-operators
the proper information for imme-
date control.
