By stretching the truth a bit, to
rnake a story, Harry Strang of Us -

bine the two topics of the day ...
the dry weather and the army
worms... . when he was in Perth
County last week to look at some
grain variety plots on Harvey Mc-
Lagan's farm near. Mitchell .
"There were quite a few farmer
at Harvey McLagan's that even-

MeLagares test field . where he
, is growing small plots of several
new kinds of oats and barley • . .
There were a few army worms in
the plot . . . not enough to do any
appreciable damage to the crop
; . but enough to get the talk
going on the subject . . .
"'We're not bothered by the
army wornis down our way', said
Marry Strang . . . `It's been too
dry , . . You think you have a
drought up here, but you don't
know what dry weather is . . .
Down in South Huron its been so
dry . . and the ground has got
SO hard . . . and cracked so deep

down the cracks and fall so far

Threat -of Worms
Almost Over;
Pests Controlled
1„The passage of time combined
with alertness on the part of Hu-
ron County farmers in a time of
crisis has practically spelled the
doom of the armyworrns, here. G,
W. Montgomery; agricultural rep-
resentative for the county states,
"They're a thing of the past. We
can stop worrying about them,
.now.'1
Theugh late last week reports of
still more worms infesting the
crops were being made, at the
present time there is little harm
being done. As the grain ripens
it begins to stop tempting the ap-
petite of the avid little pests, and
they are giving up the battle.
Word from Dr. W. E. Hemming,
professor of entomology at the On-
tario Agricultural College, Guelph,
is that though dry weather has
encouraged the worn -is and at the
same time weakened the plants,
relief is in sight. The time is al-
most here when the worms wilt
stop feeding and burrow under-
ground. There they will form
cocoons and eventually emerge as
moths.
At the same time, natural enem-
ies, such as the tachnid fly and a
small wasp known as the braconid
are helping to slow the march of
the worms. ,
Though the danger of infection
of grain is almost past, the plague
continues to spread in what has
been described as the most exten-
sive invasion in Ontario's history.
The ugly inch -long worms were
reported in the Belleville district
on Monday and Tdesday they
appeared in Fronteriac County in
the Kingston area—for the first
time in that county's history.
It is not advised that farmers
cut their grain early as a pre-
ventive measure,
