They must settle down to real jobs. Thous3Dda have already done this, many taking defense jobs in industry, or joining the army and navy. "That will leave on the road only I tramps and bums. 100,000 tramps and 1 ."0.000 bums?none of them ever worked. Then, the police can easily arrest these and make ihem go to work There are enough menial tasks for all of them."

WARM WEATHER BRINGS SPRING GRAIN APHID Clemson. Jan. 6?Cnless cooler weather intervenes, widespread out!?r??uks of the spring grain aphid tray miur ia South Carolina similar to hose of 1 U:\~, and 1930. damage being already evident in several coastal eotin;ies. a< cording W C Nettles. e\: ens ion entomologist "The warm weather has been favorh hie ft.r the aphid ". Mr Net (lea explains "Temperatures between 40 degrees b.nd ."0 degrees are favor^.ble for aphid reproduction but unfaxorahle for breeding of aphid parasites and foe the emergence of lady l>eetlee from hibernation. "Factors underlying the degree of damage caused are imperfectly understood, but on the basis of farm ex ! perience, it is suggested that grazing will tend to reduce the number of aphids and stimulate plants on which j aphids are feeding, especially when; plants are small. Moreover, by the( removal through grazing of portions of leaves into which the lice have Injected toxins the spread of poison to the | basal portions of the plants is prei vented., thus allowing the plants to ilve. However, grazing after'' grain has niado considerable growth and I : under conditions which might damage J the soil cannot be recommended. ; Stimulation of growth by judicious ! use of fertilizer has also been suggest1 "The spring grain aphid should not | be confused with the Hessian fly. I In aphid infestations an examination of the plants will usually show small | green, soft-bodied, sucking insects. I Damage by the Hessian fly. which has [ rarely been reported In this state, is j caused by small maggots." The army's $3,000,000 air base at Savannah.
