CLEANING UP INSECT PESTS j Much can be done now to reduce the possibility of insect plagues next summer if a little effort is directed toward the destruction of insect shelter areas. Around the grounds and gardens, under hedges, beside ditches ' and in fence corners are bunches of' insect-sheltering weeds or grass. By the time cold weather approaches (nany kinds of insects in the adult or immature stages have taken full advantage of these nooks and hidden away there for the winter. The Bureau of Entomology, United States Department of Agriculture, says that if these spots are cleaned up and the refuse cut and burned, manv of these hibernating insects wil be destroyed and the damage from such pests during the coming season wil be materially lessened.
