After Crop U One* Planted and Plaid la Found to I* Infoatad Thara la Na Practlcabla Way of Dotting Rid af Thom. (Pr?p*r?6 by the United Stiiw Department ?f Afrkttltun.) Outbreak* of webwormi In com la the Middle Eastern states can be pre vented only by cultural methods, ac cording to the bureau of entomology of Hie United States Department of Agriculture. Unlike most of our de structive pesta, the various species of webworms are all natives of Amer ica and have not been Introduced from foreign lands. Summer or very early fall plowing should be practiced. Plowing In late October or November has little effect because the worms are already In their winter webs under the surface of the ground. Land that has been In sod or pasture, or lain fallow and grown up to weeds and grass should be jriowed In July or August, If It Is Intended to plant It to corn the fol lowing spring. Grasslands of all kinds?meadows, pastures, or lawns?furnish the nor mal food of sod webworms, but they also gnaw young corn plants below the surface and deform them so as to prevent the production of grain. After the corn Is once planted and the Held Is found to be Infested thefe Is no practicable method of getting rid pf the worms; the only thing that can be done is to produce conditions that will permit the corn to grow In spite of them. Disking In the spring, the application of fertilizer, and the sowing of sound seed are the chief preventive meas ures that will have any effect. Nei ther poisoning nor trapping has met with any success. KEEP WEEDS OUT OF GARDEN With Few Pieces of Flat Iron and an Old Wheel an EffMant Tool Can Bo Mado.

Qreen manuring?plowing under green crop*?as a means of soil Im provement, although It has been em phasized In recent years, can hardly be called a new discovery, says the United States Department of Agricul ture. It is really one of the oldest methods. Crops for this purpose were used by-the ancients, the Romans us ing lupines, which were sown In Sep tember and turned under in May for the benefit of the following crop. In Germany the use of lupines be gan in the middle of the Nineteenth century and has proved an Important factor in reclaiming the sandy lands of parts of Prussia. In England legumes and other plants are com monly used; In India and Japan the farmers gather green plant* of many kinds, sometimes even cutting twigs from the trees and carrying them to the rice fields In the United States the use of special green-manure crops la much more general In the South than In the North.
