CORN WEEVILS 111 OTHER GRAIN
INSECTS AND PREVENTIVE MEASURES
T. ? >
, Mr. R. L Smith, Entomologist, of the North.
Carolina Agriculture Experiment Station,
^ Discusses the Injury Destructive Insects Do,
in Bulletin No. 203. ' V ' ? :
THE FARMERS SHOULD READ
Like practically all agricultural
J products, corn and other grains are
subject to the attack of numerous de
structive lttBeetf, some of tfiem com
mencing their depredations in the
n. ripening grain in the fields, while
t Others abide solely in the barns, store
** g rooms or cribs where the grain is
; afiprsil. Farmers In North Carolina
and, in fact, of all the Southern
; States, expect a greater or less num
ber of Weevils or other Insects to be
In their granaries each spring, and
n 1 coaaldeg K Isrtfaaate whan only n fay
are present. As a general rule, the
Injury inflicted to tho grain is under
estimated. and the loss in- total
- weight and feeding value is accepted
as an annoying but unavoidable con
dition.
' The actual loss occasioned by in
sects Jn whole gTaln and the various
i ariwk foods cannot be accurately bs
timated; the grain is not only re
duced in weight .and consequently
* selling Value; but Is often rendered
wholly unfit for human food and less
valuable as food for live stock. ""
As an example of the extent oT the
Injury caused hy: grain insects, a con
sideration of the value of the grain
crop will be of interest The corn
crop for North Carolina in 190S was
- Valued at 939,631,000 and the wheat
crop at |6, 07fc000, a combined total
oX?94?,709,000. Since there are no
statistic* to show the actual annual
injury caused by Insects, it msy be
conservatively estimated at five per
OMt *F fetch is lower than the actual
v. J>efceBt of tfprniw mnnHart'fnr n?.
tain other Southern States
ioua years. Five per cent of the total
)> ? Is 92,285,450, an amount represent1
? log the poMible annual damage by
grain Insects to corn and Wheat crops
alone In North Carolina.
The Hat of really Injurious species
of Insects attacking stored sraln, and
the principal feed stuffs manufat
tured therefrom, nujpber twenty and
upwards. There are two true weev
ils and at least one dozen other forms
known as beetles la their adult stage.
whlUt^re find alx common and injur
ltrtfii species whose parents are
? T"" ll
~ and conspicuous of thlrf" number
described in tho pages following. Tiie
prifltipal damage to whole grains is
caused by the rice or black weevil1
and the angoujnois grain moth or fly
weevil. but the others mentioned are
freQupntly ' present In destructive
numbers. In eastern North Carolina
th^ black weevil probably predoml-:
, ? hut In tho wPofArn ?u>r>Hnn
fly weuvll holds flrst position. In:
? rowy localities thero two speeleu and
others of less importance are found
wt>rlcing together, sometimes actually
occurring In the same kernels of
corn.
? For the reader who la not familiar
with the grain insects, the statements
ocncemlng the life-history of each
will help to show the Importance of
? this sehjsst. it is na| alwaya. real
ized how rapidly* these insects ? the
trhe weevil, for example ? may In

that grain" may become infested [n
the field before harvest. With species
that produce only One generation an

the larval and pupal stages, an ex

inclusively thai fnmlgation With
I rat? knowledge of the varlQus grain

[.preventive measures wherever possi
ble, and partly to explain the limlta

for fumigation of Infested grain,
I Grain first becomes Infested thro'
bdne of two sources; (1) the insects
may attack the ripening grain In the
flel<Lz_ai?l- i 2 ) the lnttftottt may live
continuously in barns and gralnarlea

ly harvested crop. The second, source
of Infestation is more easily prevent
^ .
angoulnols grain moth, saw-tooth
grain beetle and a few other small
grain beetles are usually' found' In
ripening grain, particularly corn. As
a general rple, grain is partially ma
tured, or at least nearly grown, be
fore it In attacked by Insects, which
of I'wnmn nrimn frnm tha pjaQM in
which the grain is stored 'during the
winter. As It cannot be hoped to kill
all the Insects In stored grains and
thus prevent their going to the fields,
an effort must be made to prevent
th?jn from getting back again In the
new grain. Small cereals like wheat
and rye should be threshed as soon
as"^g^enough, as that process will
kill many of the adul^. insects and
dislodge the eggs. The adult angpu
mois moth is easily crushed, and the
threshing and h?ndHag of grain de
stroys many of thfm. After It Is
threshed the grain. should be stored
[ in tight bins or In sacks, the latter
being preferable, because the moths
tbat mature will die without escap
ing Whoever tfce-graln, it Infested,
can be fumigated In practically air
tight boxes or receptacles, carbon bi
sulphide should be* used when the
grain Is first housed. The -practice
of storing grain In large bulk Is to be
commended, as a protection from
weevils _or grain moths, for then only
the surface layers are exposed. This
Is In ?dlrect accord with the recom
mendation that grain should not be
cut and stacked In the field, for sev
eral months. Such practice tends to
allow the Insects to infest all of the
grain more readily; *h?w th'?> ? m?
[jam muiLUiiLa in mn sniii ? '
Concerning corn particularly, ' the
tight husk offers much protection,
and In the field the angoumols grain
moth or rice weevil would be exclud
ed almost completely from ears with
a husk fitting tightly over the end,
were It not for the corn ear-worm,
which frequently makes entrance and
Pfexlt holes, that furnish- easy entrance
Nf Ihepaln miiiln nr ha stir
aver, the presence of the ear-worm Is
an argument In favor of housing the
grain as early as practicable. The
longer It Is lert in the field the great
er will be the number of ears Infest*
ed. Of course. If the farmer does not
see that the barns and granaries are
free from insects when the grain is
sto the extent of the field Infest
ation Is of less importance.

Insects may be feeding. The writer
has known many farmers to place
new corn ,on top of a few bushels of
old corn literally being devoured by
the weevils and other Insects. Farm
ers will also often boast that their
bins or cribs are never emptied. This
practice cannot be too strongly con

STORM RESULTS
1ST REALIZED
II IN LOUISIANA
Entire State Mourns
Appeals Are- Now Being Made
to the Entire .Country for Aid
for Reiief of the Sufferers From
Recent Storm.
New Orleans, .Sept. 28. ? A week
ago today the white-winged seagulls,
flying wildly inland from the Gulf,
gave warning with their screams of.
the approach of the much-dreaded
I West Indian hurricane.
Along the entire coast were count
less happfTisiremik Und sallormen,
their thousands of trim craft and
j comfortable homes bearing Token of
the advent of a prosperous- season.
Today vast flocks of vultures Cov
ered over the devastated, lowlands of
Southern Louisiana^ strewn wlth'ln
pnuqnerable carcasses of animals and
men'. '-n.
The scene was one of terror, deso
lation and death. Stunned by , the
damage that was wrought by winds
and waves, the work of relief did not
give the people time to mourn. All
energies were bent for 'the remainder
| of the week in the task of rescuing
those still In peril and .auctforing
those who had suffered in the storm.
'Almost 100~human_bodles have been
| burned or burled in the marshes
i where they were drowned.
To (Pay Louisiana fbund time t$
weep. Closely refraining from ail
forms of mirth, the people of the
State*, irrespective of creed, adhered
closely to the following Injunction
from Archbishop Blenk: N
"The" loss of human lives and the
widespread destruction of property
in this archdiocese through the re
cent hurricane have givet\ rise -to so
much sorrow and distress that any
social function would at the present
time be entirely our of keeping with
the sad surroundings, with tears
streaming? down their faces the
stricken pastors have told me of the'
j utter destitution of 'their people and
of the compfet^ destruction of the
houses of God.
' ''But I trust, and I a? quite con
fident, that those who have been so
sorely tried wl|l put it in my power
to give prompt and substantial aid to
the crushed sufferers at this time of
awful desolation."
So completely cut off were many
remote sections along* the. coast that
It was not for several days after the
hurricane that the appalling log's of

made necessary by the storm. Com
paratively small property^daipagei in
the city of New Orleans, with several
deaths "due'Ha live wires and falling
chimneys, was all thp casualties that
were recorded for some time.
- It was no# for a day or more that,

56 ? persons had lost their lives It
Terre ? Bonne Pariah. ? Finally, ? the^
death list in Tfcrre Bonne alone
passed the hundred mark, and yester
day conservative estimates of the to
tal number -of dead ranged between
150 and 175. '
-Late last night dispatch boats run-,
ning from Dunbar, I^a., between New
Orleans and Bay St. Louts, Miss.,
brought the news of the discovery o<
36 bodies in one-section alone, 'in IB"
made the number those definitely
known to have lest their- Uvea ap
: proximately 200, and led to the belief
'that there are possibly still more un

I "PlttubOTB. Sept! 28.? A (errHlc ex

of tie Columbian Film exchange, lo
cated in the Fergusori building, be

.In the heart of the down-town dis
trict. k
From fllty to seventy-llv? persons
were injured, many of them seriously,
and_Lh? monetary damage is estimat
ed at $200,000 or more. *
At first it was believed seven .em
ployes of the film company had lost
their lives, but a thorough search of
the fuiwa filled to disclose any dead.
The employes, it,, is now thought,
made their escape and have not been
located, owing to the great cdnfusion
^whieh followed the explosion
A score of the injured were taken
to hospitals. A majority of them are
burned," White the others sustained
fractures of the arms an<^ limos.
? The fnrrp nf the explosion was so
great that the south wall of the Fer
guson building, on Third avenue, was
blown away. The remaining walls
were badly damaged, and the build-;
ing inspector i mmedlately ordered
them razed. Windows for fully a
square on either side of the explos
ion were broken and a number of pe
destrians making their way along
Fourth avenue, the "Wall street" of
Pittsburg, were cut by falling glass.
The explosion was caused by an elec-|
trlcal spark. The manager of the
film company was absent.
Practically every office in the big !
building was damaged. Panic strlck
en occupants' made a wild rush for
the exits. Men . add women ran
screaming from pain and fright,
many of them falling down the -stair
ways. Others congregated about the
elevator sha/t and in their frantic
efforts to board the cars wrecked the :
Iron frame work encasing the uhaft. j
As most of them finally reached the 1
street they fell to the ground suffer
ing from burns, cuts and bruises.
- The accident threw the downtown
district into the greatest excitement

of pedestrians, who at times were
In Imminent danger from a- second ex

Shortly before 3?7cTocFTffP^TfF
