guests.

Many interesting talks were made,
by leaders of various lines of work'

LOOKOUT INSECTS I
..While the Japanese army was
marching on Jehol the Japanese
beetle was marching on the south.'
One of theise varmints was discovered
last week in the Blue Ridge (
mountains of old Virglnny and 3 days1
later, another of the said bugs was
contacted in North Cnrolina.
. . The news of the arrival of these
2 Japanese pests was radioed, tele-.
graphed,,-telephoned and written in to!
the department of agriculture and
immediately that noble body hopped
into activity and before anybody
knows it, bug traps, 'blow guns, squirt
guns and all kinds of poisons will
envelop the whole infested community.
I
I
..These bean beetle traps are nice
lawn and cow pasture ornaments.
They are made like Japanese lanterns
so's the Japanese beetle will feel he's
at home., he walks right up to the
lantern or trap, knocks on the door
and if he gets no answer, he walks |
in, and the only trouble is. .it's a oneway
lantern..easy to get in, but no
way to get out. The government
caught a ibug in one of these contraptions
in Baltimore in 1931.
. .The modern Japanese beetle ain't
satisfied to eat beans, peas, corn and
garden truck; he has changed his
menu and is now destroying Ford and
Chevrolet tires, tubes, radios, fruit
trees, dishpans, underclothes (if any),
hay, guinea eggs, and some collards.
They were not so horrible as long as
they stuck to their original diet, but
now they are simply awful. One
large 'bean beetle punctured a politician
in Washington a few days ago
and both of them swelled up.
..It's nice to have a government that
is willing to fight our bug, worm and
lly battles. Uncle Sam will gladly ,
spend 2 dollars if a single (or married)
crop pest can be killed, wounded
or incapacitated and that's why
he has so many thousands of employees
scattered all over the world i
destroying one of them now ami then. 1
Just so long as he plays hands off
of the wheat gnat, the boll weevil
and the army worm, I won't complain.
Nature is trying to help us
through this medium but we wonTt
let her.
. . But the fight is on and if you
or your wife or your son and his
wife happens to see a strange look- j
ing ibug in your neighborhood with
%quinty eyes, that's a Japanese beetle, '
*o kindly send word to the nearest !
government official..just around the |
:orner. and sick him on it. They
must be stopped before they ruin 1
something or other. It doesn't cost
much more to control these pests i
than the crops they might destroy ]
ivill fetch on the open market.

May Farm Calendar
Advised By Clemson
CI ems on College, May 1. -Better
farming hints for attention tin May
suggested by extension specialists include
the following:
Agronomy.?.Soybean and cowpea
seed are increasing in price. Buy
seed now to plant a large acreage for
feed and soil improvement. Better
increase the corn acreage to be sure
to have plenty of feed. Side-dressing
corn and cotton with nitrogen gives
good returns, on fertiliser money.
Marly sweetened poison on cotton will
kill the early weevils and let the
tally squares develop. ,
Horticulture.t-^Sow tomatoes f o*r
duly transplanting. Sow cahbagc and
collard about May 15 for August
transplanting. Mulch tomatoes heavily
with straw or leaves to ndld
moisture and prolong fruiting. Do
not cultivate beans while the foliage
is wet. Apply nitrate of soda to garden
crops if not growing well. Do
not cut young asparagus too closely;
fertilize ami manure the bed after
cutting season.
Agr icu 11 u ra 1 Kn g i nee r i ng. ?S ha r p en
harrow disks for cutting in cover
crops. Use weeder, spike-tooth harrow.
or rotary hoe to break crusts
formed over young seedlings. Equip
the two-horse cultivator, with disk
hitlers or small sweeps for early cultivations.
Keep working parts of
machines greased or oiled as this is
cheaper tihan repairs. Order repairs
and recondition all machinery for the
grain harvest. Recondition poultry
laying houses. Provide screens for
dwellings, milk houses, etcInsects
and Diseases.?-Spray fruit
trees for curculio, codling moth and
diseases. Spray pecans with IV rdeaux
l.> control scab. Band apple
trees for codling moth by May 15. j
Control melon ar.thracn.se with 1 -1 - .>0
Bordeaux .-pray. Control lr:.?h potato
and tomato di-ea-es an i insis ts
with Bordeaux-lead arsenate sprr.y. ,
To avoid .-erious buduorm injury
plant c u n in lower South ( arolinaj
about May 5; middle South Carolina
May 10; upper South Carolina May
20. ^ 1
Dairying.?Plan for two tons of
soybean or peavine hay for each ma- j
ture cow and one ton for each year-,
ling. If a silo is to be filled this
fall, have ample corn or cane. Plant
enough extra corn to supply eight
bushels of corn-and-cob meal per cow
this winter. Sow one-half acre of
(Sudan grass, or Teosinti or Pearl
millet for each cow for soiling or
grazing purposes in July and August, j
Do not graze permanent pastures too
closely. Clean out the barns and
premises to save manure and destroy
breeding places for flies.
Animal Husbandry.?Place wean- j
ling pigs on succulent forage, and.
give them all they will eat of a wellbalanced
concentrate. See that pigs
are not on territory infested with [
internal parasites. Observe pigs for
lice and if infested grease them with
motor oil. Feed 30 days and market j
sows which have not raised good
litters. P'oed lambs in a creep with
a palatable well-balanced concentrate.
Observe beef cows with young calves
closely and see if the udders need
milking. If .sheep are infested with
stomach worms give them treatment.
Poultry.?Clean and disinfect the
brooder houses each week. Cull all
weak, slow growing pullets and sell
as broilers. Cull the non-laying hens
and sell Do not keep boarding hens.
Remove males from laying flock when
incubation season is overs Produce
infertile eggs. Provide shade for
growing chicks.
