PAGE TWELVE ARMY WORMS | ARE CAUSING CROP DAMAGE. Arrangements Will Be Made For Control Measures, Fol- lowing Survey Army worms damage in scatterec eastern North D: and speci- mens have been d from as far west as Mandan, according to J. A. Munro, entomologist of the Experiment tion at the North Dakota Agricultural college. County exte agents have been instructed to make a survey in the infested area ¢ 5 for control measures immediately. with N. D. Gorman, county agent leader at the college, directing their activities. | Found In Many Places Authorities at the college declare that within their knowledge army ‘worms were never reported in large | numbers in North Dakota until this year. The first specimens were found by County Agent H. M. Ocf- stos in Richland coun week ago. | Press dispatches carried in the| newspapers at that time have re-; sulted in specimens being sent to} the college from more than thirty} different localities in Richland,! Sargent, Ransom, Barnes and Mor- | ton counties in this state, and oe | county, Minn. Due to the habits of this acious feeding | m, immediate | identification and application, of; control measures must be made.| The worms move along on a wide front and eat everything green that is in their path. “Two methods can be used to) control these worms,” Mr, Munro | declares. “The most common and | successful one is to dig a V-shaped | ditch around infested fields with a plow. Then drag a small log thru this ditch until a dust mulch is pro-! duced. When the worms come to) this ditch, they crawl in and they | are not able to get through the; dust, re “A second method is to poison them with some spray such as paris | green or lead arsenate. is_ is) practical only on small fields, due | to the expense. Care must be ex-/ ercised where bees are kent nearby, | as this spray will kill the bees if| they feed there. Methods of Control “A combination of the two) taethods can. be used by digging| the furrow and spreading poison bait in the bottom, using sey 8) and paris green or some other Saisea: This method can be used in those localities where it is diffi- cult to work up the dust mulch.” “The reports received to date do not warrant any scare so far as the crop of this whole section is' cone ,” Mr. Munro says.* “Im- mediate control measur the' depredations of the Worm. The most necessary action is to find out the. exact territory that is infested | and to apply the measures right away. The report from Mandan would indicate that ther likeli- hood of some infestation in the counties east and south, Burleigh, Kidder, Stutsman, Emmons, Mc- Intosh, Logan, LaMoure and Dickey. Any specimens sent to my office at the college will be; identified immediately, and advice will be given on methods of con- trol.” The army worm is about one an one-half inches long, has thre stripes on each side, a yellow head | and belly, and the back may be} green or almost black, Madame Nungesser Honored By Flyers Paris, Aug. 19.—(AP)—For the gon she lost fate has sent some compensation to Madame Nunges ser, who with Coli and the White Bird disappeared into the unknown, martyrs of scientific aviation. ‘Aviators have made a sort of -un- official mother of Madame Nun- Her Paris apartment ha become a haven of inspir: , flyers of the world.
