Fall Survey Shows
Fewer Corn BOrers

Fewer European corn borers
have been found this fall in Ma
ryland than were found in 1855,
according to Wallace c. Harding,
Jr., entomologist for the Univer-
sity of Maryland Extension Ser
vice.
A recent annual survey con-
Quoted by Harding showed the
State average this fall to be 70
borers for each 100 stalks of corn.
Last fall a similar survey showed
140 borers per 100 stalks. Borer
populations were down in all but
Carroll and Worcester Counties
this year.
One of the most important
steps in controlling the European
corn borer is the complete de-
struction of overwintering corn
stalks. These stalks should be
plowed under by April Is in
Southern Maryland and on the
lower Eastern Shore, and by May
l in the rest of the State.
