If you’ve had any doubts about it, here’s “Babe” Ruth, the Home Run King, signing his contract for the
•eason to play with the New York “Yankees.” Mrs. Ruth looks over his shoulder while Col. Ruppert, owner of the
Yankees, wears a smile. Babe's salary for the season will be $75,000. a cut of $5,000 from last year.

Natural enemies of the European
corn borer are being introduced in
increasing numbers into the Unit
ed States. In 1931 approximately
371,000 imported corn-borer para
sites were liberated in infested
areas by entomologists of the Unit
ed States Department of Agricul
ture. In the last 10 years 1,600,-
000 of these parasites have been
liberated, representing 20 diffeernt
species originating in Europe and
in the Orient. Twelve of these
species have been recovered in the
field, indicating that they have be
come established. So far control
by parasites has not developed to
any appreciable extent, as the work
has been going on for too short a
period. In some areas, however, as
much as 15 to 25 per cent of para
sitism has been observed in indi
vidual fields.
