“just where needed" and that major landing blow could be made within 90 days, new dispatches from Pacifl ;
gave indication of important developments. The first large-sized group of American soldiers deployed directly
from Europe arrived in Manila (1), where shipping activity is said to be geared to top speed. Another bolii

Sabadilla Controls
The Harlequin Bug
Clemson, July 30. — Collard
growers will welcome the an
nouncement that Sabadilla, a
promising new control material
for the harlequin bug, appears
ready for public use. W. C. Net
tles, extension entomologist, re
ports that Sabadilla has been used
on a few collard patches through
out the state and the reaction
seems good.
The harlqeuin bug in the past
has been considered uncontrolla
ble, except just before the war
when a special type of pyre thrum
was available.
Sabadilla is a seed which grows
on a lily-like plant in the areas
surrounding the Caribbean Sea.
The insecticidal properties of
Sabadilla have been known since
the sixteenth century and the ma
terial has been used to some ex
tent for louse control through the
years.
Recent Universiyt of Wisconsin
research has shown how to activ
ate the new seed—previously only
the seed which had aged would
produce results. Sabadilla dust
was not poisonous to rats in tests
run under supervision of the Uni
versity of Wisconsin medical
school.
Sabadilla causes sneezing and
those in contact with the dust
should wear a mask. In dusting
a small patch of collards it is
easy to stay out of way of the
dust.
Much remains to be known a-
bout Sabadilla concentrations and
the number of applications nec
essary. It has been used as a 20
per cent dust on the harlequin
bug with good results in this
state. Some - experimenters re
port control of squash bug, chinch
bug, cabbage worm, and cattle
lice. Limited observations made
by Mr. Nettles indicate control of
the southern green stink bug, a
pest of tomatoes, beans, cowpeas,
and other crpos in the southern
part of the state.

Lay 15.7 Eggs Per Hen
GREENWOOD, S. C.
Clemson, Aug. 4. — The demon
stration flock summary shows
that the 13 farms reporting rep
resented a total of 1,613 hens with
an average of 15.7 eggs each. The
hens ate 50.6 cents worth of feed
and returned a toatl income of
94.3 cents. This left an income
above feed cost of 43.7 cents per
bird for the month, says P. H.
Gooding, extension poultryman.
There were no flocks reporting
with 501 or more hens. The high
est producing flock with 201 to
500 hens belonged to Bertha Roth-
rock, Pendleton. Her 231 New
Hampshires produced an average
of 17.9 eggs per bird.
Mrs. Terry M. Meares, Seneca,
led in the flocks with 51 to 200
hens. Her 66 White Leghorns
produced 18.6 eggs per bird. A-
mong the flocks with 50 or less
hens, the 42 White Rocks belong
ing to Gilmer Blankenship, Union,
led. They produced an average of
16.2 eggs.
