Corn Borer fn Essex.
Despite an increase in the infesta-
tion of Essex 'County cornfields by
corn borer, County Inspector James
Hedrick does not 'believe .'thrat damage
this year will be heavy. He has com-
pleted an inspection trip through the
county .and forecasts a good crop of
corn. Essex farmers have co-operat-
ed heartily inthe fight against the
corn boner. The .borers were compar-
atively scarce last year, due to') dry
weather, 'but' the frequent rains this
summer have brought them back.
Continuance of drastic measures to
combat the nuisance is 'planned.
A SEASONABLE SUGGESTION.
/For the past two summers, after
harvest cultivation 'of stubble land
has not been an easy or satisfactory
task, because of the lack of moisture
in the soil, but this year is one of the
Most favorable for that useful pur-
pose. By the use of the gangplow,
cud'tivator, or even the disc, followed
by the harrow, millions of weed seeds
Per acre can be germinated in infest-
ed fields, and these can be destroyed
very easily by later fall plowing, but
if left dormant this season will appear
in the crops of the succeeding one,
robbing the land of the food elements
which should be utilized by the grain
and also decreasing the quantity per
acre, which in some cases may mean
a loss instead of awofilt to the owner,
With the present ,outlook regarding
prices of farm products we meed to
conserve the fertility of the soil in
every way possible to enable it to
produce a maximum return for our
labor arid seed, and in this the de-
struction of weeds play a very im-
portant pant. The major part of the
harvest will' be in the barns within the
next ten days, and this is the time to.
begin this urgent and necessary work
to secure germination While thesoil
is moist and warm as all seeds are
very easily destroyed thereafter.
We would also call attention• to the
Wild Carrot, as this season has been
a very favorable one for a vigorous
groowth of this biennial weed. Thera
are many fields from which the hay
crop has been removed, and today is
covered with a rank growth of the
carrot. These should be piemved at
once where iutemsd•ed for cultivation
next season, using the drag chain to
insure complete covering of all
growth, but where these fields are to
be left unplowed the carrot should be
cut before goingto eed raked upand

There are many fields with only a
-few p'lan'ts in them and it would take
but an hour or two to pull these and
those along the fences, 'but which if
left, will multiply very rapidly, and
when we consider that a single plant
will produce several thousands of
seeds we will realize the danger of at -
lowing thein to go uncu,. An hour or
