On this lot I novar bad boen able to se? cure a "ttand" by reason of tho "out won?," al? though I tried salt in various ways.

On the remaining rows, not moro than one-third of the planta escaped tho worm, and those that did, war? puny in appear ano?. If farther trials on lands infested with "Cut Worms" shall result in securing a "avAttD" Ilka the one referred to, I should consider it an ex? tremely valuable, and th? oheapett remedy, which sould be used. 6.
