OCTCZZR 4TH 0?EKLTG date NEUSE FAIR Army Worms Invade Farms Of . County . Army worms have invaded Dup lin County in several sections and are doing severe damage to hay crops, pasture, corn and other crops. Some 'farmers reportat the pest are devouring late wirn and hay crops like a drove of hun gry cows. The worms seem "to strike in spots and travel in one direction, cleaning up the crops as they go. Where the insects are found they may be headed off by digging ditches or plowing deep furrows ' ahead of them in line of their travel. The worms seem to fall in these furrows and have a hard time crawling out. Poison bait should be sprayed Jn these ditches or furrows to kill them be fore they escape. A good poison bait to use is as follows;- ' v ' 50 lbs. of Wheat brand (or any other brand) - 2 lbs. of Parrish Green ' 1 gallon of cheap molasses ' 6 gallons of water (approx imately) The bait should not be made sloppy, but just moist enough so it will crumble in the hand. When the worms are first found they may be sprayed with Arsenic of Lead and destroyed in this way. Farmers ; should keep check on their fields right now as the worms are easier to destroy before they cover so much terri tory. ' . 1 1 I NOTICE!

How Melon Prices Hit Skids The unusually heavy movement of watermelons from North 1 Caro lina and other southeastern states to market in recent weeks and the disastrous effect of the rapidly in creasing supplies on grower prices is shown in the above chart. " The chart, prepared by the Ag ricultural Adjustment Administra tion, indicates that when in the week ending June 26 shipments more than doubled those of the preceding week, the average week ly f . e. b. price fell from $308 to $257 per carload, L. P. Watson, State College extension horticult urist, pointed out. 1 In the week ending July 3, 3, 019 ears went forward and the price mas more than cut in half or $102.' When the shipments in the succeeding week rose to 4,864 cars vthe highest figure for any week in the past five years, the price averaged only $77. Although shipments declined in the week ending July 17, they nevertheless were the second larg est in recent years and the price tumbled to $43 a carload. ' The heavy watermelon ship ments were due to 7 per cent in crease in acreage and a 21 per cent increase in production in North Carolina, : South Carolina, Georgia, and Florida, Watson declared.
