( - wm m ^ ENEMY OF CORN CROP. ! * i Small Caterpillar Threatens Southern Crop?means Used to Destroy J the Worm. Atlanta Journal. Tbe corn orop of tbe Sooth is threatened wltb total loss by tbe destructive onslaught ! of the larger cotton stalk borer, a new enemy that has come to devastate the fields of growing grain. Many letters have been received by State Entomologist Scott from farmers In all selections of the State, and he has received quite an interesting collection of the worm and tbe RtAiks uDon which be finds his existence. ' The worm Is batched from the egg* of a 1 moth that lays on the young stalk of com. The period of hatching requires little mote than a week, and tbe moment tbe new-born pest opens Its eyes In tbe new world he begins boring bis way Into tbe beart of tbe stalk, killing and poisoning tbe life of tbe ' plant. State Entomologist Scott, In an Interesting interview tbls morning, tells tbe full story of tbe worm and the remedy that must be ap, plied to save tbe crop from destruction, i Entomologist Scott, In speaking of the worm which Is so destructive, says : "Tbe larger cornstalk borer Is a large white caterpillar, dotted with dark brown spots, , wblcb bores Into corn stalks preventing tbe ' growth of the ears sn young corn and weaken; ing older stalks on that It is readily blown : down. It frequently occurs In such numbers in nnm fields that one stalk of corn may be riddled with twenty or thirty boles. 1 "This Insect 1s quite well distributed over the southern States and'frequently becomes very troublesome, causing a loss of 25 to 50 per cent of the crop when it occurs in large numbers. Aside from corn it also attacks i sugar Kane, sorghum, and gama grass or i semaln grass. "The adult insect is a moth which deposits eggs on young corn soon after it comes up. The eggs soon batch and the young larta; bore into the stalk from the ground to the i third joint and tunnel usually upward through the path. Corn stalks affected become distorted and do not form ears There is a second generation of this insect whloh bores into the well grown stalks aoti so weakens them that they are frequently blown over. This second generation passes the winter in the old corn stalks ready to produce a spring brood to attack tbe next crop of com. "The remedy for tbls inseot consists entirely of preventive measures. Since tbe oaterpillars over-winter in the old corn stalks they can be almost entirely destroyed by burning these Btalks In the fall or winter after tbe crop Is gathered. "Our method of pulling tbe fodder and leaving tbe stalks on the ground, or even cutting the corn and leaving the butts, affords *' ?*?? uthio 4 nouot t a hnlH I Liu wry ucat uuuuiuuud iui vuio <uoww w uv<v* over tbe winter and continue to multiply year after year. Tbe stalks should be dragged off, collected and burned during tbe fall and winter." "Again, corn should not follow corn on Infested lands. A system of rotation of crops should be adopted, so that corn will not be planted on tbe same land two years In succession. Tbe same Is true of sugar cane and sorghum. Also swamps in wblob gama grass Is growing sbould be burned over every year to destroy the worm infesting tbls grass. T' these preventive measures are followed farmers need not suffer from attackB of tbe pest,," $20.00 IN SILVER. Given Away By P. B. Speed, Abbeville, S. C.
