TO PREVENT APHIS PEST.
Measures That Should Be Employed
For Destroying It.
[Prepared by United States department of
agriculture.]
Grain raisers, especially those in,
Texas and on the southern border of
Oklahoma, are urged to destroy all
volunteer grain by pasturing, plowing ,
under or burning straw which has been
scattered over it, as it is a fertile
breeding place for the spring grain
aphis or "green bug." Moreover, as
the specialists or the department point
out, it is particularly necessary for
grain growers in these two sections
and other parts of the soutb to stop
the, first developments of the aphis, as
if not controlled in the volunteer grain
it may very well spread to the sown
grain and become a source of damage,
The post history of the spring grain
aphis, or "green bug," one of the most
dreaded pests of the wheat grower in
the southwest, indicates clearly that
destructive invasions west of the Mis-
sissippi river have' had their origin in
central and northern Texas and south-
SPRING GRAIN APHIS OR GREEN 0110 MN.

ern Oklahoma, and, in the eastern
country, probably in southeastern
Georgia and southern South Carolina.
Farmers have thus come to look with
uneasiness upon the appearance of any
aphis in abundance in their grain fields.
Years of investigation have given us
some facts which strongly indicate
that, if the appearance of this "green
bug" were to be detected in time and
vigorous measures employed for sup-
pressing it, destructive ravages might
be, to some extent at least, controlled.
Furthermore, all of the information at
hand strongly implies that if the pest
could be .effectually controlled through-
out a comparatively small area in Tex-
as and possibly the extreme southern
border of Oklahoma, the enormous de-
struction for which it is responsible
farther to the north and northeast
might be nearly or quite eliminated.
This is in tact what actually takes
place when an outbreak is overcome
in its incipiency' by natural ',enemies.
North of the latitude of northern Ok-
lahoma, southern Missouri, southern
Tennessee and North Carolina the in-
sect passes the winter in the egg stage
and therefore would not be able to in-
crease in sufficient abundance in
spring to work the serious damage that
it usually does during years of exces-
sive abundance. South of this line tile
insect breeds in wheat fields during fa-
vorable weather throughout the entire
winter and becomes excessively abun-
dant Unfortunately the same weath-
er conditions are not favorable for the
development of the parasites which
prey upon the "green bug." Whenever
an outbreak occurs, especially west of
the Mississippi river, the pest first
makes its appearaince in the fields in
spots, .usually circular in area,"primari-
ly indicated by the reddening of the
blades of the wheat; which afterward
turn brown. The spots become larger
until the insects spread over the entire
field. in very many cases these injur-
ed spots have been found to coincide
exactly with the location of the shocks
of grain where the kernels have rat-
tled off and fallen to the ground, thus
producing 'volunteer plants. In the na-
ture of things, therefore. volunteer
grain, whether of wheat or oats, con-
stitutes the initial breeding grounds
for the pest. I! this volunteer growth
could be pastured 'off in late fall or
early winter much of the danger of an
outbreak would be eliminated.
