A GREAT LOSS. Wheat Crop Soon To Be Sown Can Be Protected From hessian Fiy. The loss in the 1015 wheat crop from the ravages of the Hessian fly in some sections will be the greatest in several years. From June to October, 1!)14, the departments issued repeated warnings and advisory state ments telling of the impending danger of a serious outbreak of; pest during the year I'.tlo. It is too late to do anything toward lessening the devestations of the Hessian fly in this vear's crop. ... _ ' i >ow is the time, however, to be gin the work of saving from the fly the millions of acres of wheat • vhich will be planted on the' present infested area within the next few months. In order to understand the sit uation fully, is necessary to know what the fly is like, how it is cap able of causing such enormous losses, anil how it transforms from the egsr to the fully deve loped insect. Comparatively few farmers are able to recognize this pest excepting in what is xnown as •'he "flaxseed" stajje, which even then is often mistaken for the egg. There are two generations of the Hessian fly each year, one in the fall and one in the following spring, the latter being the ' children of the former. There-' j fore, if there were no flies to lay ( eggs in the fall, it stands to i reason there could be none to lay ] eggs in spring. \ t In the course of its develop ment the insect passes through four different stages, al! of which are shown in the accompanying diagram on page 3. The adult is a small, long-legged, dark-color ed fly, very much resembling a small mosquito, The egg is very small,long slender, and of a shin ing, reddish color, and is placed by the female fly in the grooves of the upper surface of the wheat leaves both in spring and fall. The maggot hatches from the egg, makes its way down the leaf and wedges itself between the leaf sheath and the stalk of the plant, where in some cases a doz en or more may be found partly overlapping one another. When it becomes full grown its skin hardens, changing to brown, and from its color it is then commmonly known as the "flax seed." when is the pupal or rest ing stage of the insect. Beginning about April 1, as 3hwn in the diagram, flies em- 1 srge the "flaxseed" that have ' passed the winter in the fall | wheat, whether early sown or .olunteer. These flies deposit heir eggs on the leaves of the i ininfested plants, the eggs; latch into maggots in from 4 to CALOMEL DYNAMITES YOUR LIVER!

I This constitutes the spring After harvest the "flaxseeds" of this generation can be found in the stubble, just above the ground, or often high er up where the straw has broken over. While, as stated, the Hessian fly emerges from the "flaxseed" 1 stage throughout an extended period of time within the entire area of its distribution, in any given locality this emergence of the adults in destructive abund ance occupies but a few days. The life of the female after she makes her way forth from the flaxseed probably doe.* not extend beyond a period of five or six days. Thus it is that a delay in the fall until after the flies have appeared and largely dis appeared becomes of such vital importance. The first iiies of the second or fall generation begin to issue from the "flaxseeds" about the middle of August and continue to issue till about the last of Oc tober, according to latitude, the maximum emergence occuring during the last two weeks of Sep tember or the first week in Oc tober, depending on the locality. This second generation infests volunteer wheat and all wheat sown before the fly-free date. The "flaxseeds" of the second generation remain on the plants of fall-sown wheat till April of the next year, when adults issue 1 from them and begin another' season.

THE DANBURY REPORTER , Mail Carries Must Abandon ! Motorcycles and Bicycles. Postmaster (General Burleson , has issued an order prohibiting the use of bicycies and motor cycles in the rural delivery ser vice after January 1 next. Ac ; cording to an official statement given out by the department, there are approximately 8000 : routes upon which bicycles and motorcycles are used to carry | the mails. It is held by the ' department that this type of vehicle does not have the carry ing capacity needed for the parcel post service. Theelimina tion of this kind of vehicle, the department says, will also tend to equalize the working condi tions of the carrier force, as carriers using motorcycles are especially liable to injury, which results in great expense to the government since the passage of a law by Congress authorizing the government to pay for in jury and death to postal em ployes while on duty. Carriers may use automobiles if thev want to abandon the horse-drawn vehicles. How's This. We offer One Hundred Dollars Reward for any case of Catarrh I that cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure.
