CARNATIONS USED AS BAIT FOR RATS IN LOS ANGELES Los Angeles, Aug. 24.—(?)—The fragrant garden variety of carna- tions, used as bait, has proved far more irresistible than cheese to the rat population of the Hall of Records and Court House buildings here. Discovery was made recently by L. C. Robinson, chief janitor of the two buildings, after several weeks of investigatiot at rats have a liking for carnations. Through the use of the flowers as bait in traps large numbers of the rodents, which grad- ually were reducing hundreds of law and record books to a sad state of dilapidation, were exterminated.

CHANGEABLE WEATHER CAUSES 190SS OF NUMEROUS ARTICLES Los Angeles—()—Rain and sun- shine play tricks on the average person’s bump of forgetfulness and make busy days for the lost-and- found department of the Los Ange- les street railway. Alfred T, Cloth- ier, manager ofthe department, said that 1,800 umbrellas left on the street cars in one day testified to] ¢} this. A rainy morning will find many street car patrons carrying umbrel- las. Sunshine in the afternoon means a busy time for employes of the department, for hundreds of the workers and shoppers get off the street cars leaving their umbrellas still beside the seats they occupied. An aggregate of 13,371 miscellane- ous articles were turned in to the department during the first six month of 1925.

PESTS DAMAGE STATE WHEAT Sawflies Injure Crops in Pierce and Divide Counties Fargo, N. D., Aug. 24.—Wheat stem sawflys have been working in Pierce and Divide counties of this state according to reports received by Dr. R. L. Webster, entomologist at the North Dakota Agricultural college. While the damage has not been excessive results of the sawfly's work are shown in the wheat fields where the stems have been cut loose to the ground by this western pi Wheat fields infested by the sa fly frequently have the appearance of having been damaged by hail. The maggots feed within the stems, caus- ing these to weaken and fall in a high wind. Sawfly maggots work entirely with- in the stems, boring their way through the points during July and moving down toward the base of the stem early in August. Then the grub or larva constructs a silken cocoon, and lives in the stubble until the next year, when the sawfly emer- ges from the cocoon in June and the female insects deposit their eggs in wheat and other small grains. “Spring wheat suffers most from this insect, spring rye is next while durum wheat is somewhat less in- jured,” Dr. Webster says. “Growing resistant crops, such as oats, winter rye and barley, helps control the in- sect. Flax and the clovers are not attacked. “Deep plowing of stubble infested by the wheat-stem sawfly is recom- mended as a prevention. All the stubble must be actually turned un- der, so the insects are completely buried in the ground.” The practice of “stubbling, in” spring wheat favors the development of the wheat sawfly.’ Unless some means are taken to dispose of in- fested stubble the sawflies will emerge in due time and deposit their eggs on the young wheat in the same ield, frequently causing severe dam- age.
