FACTS ABOUT THE ARMY WoRMw.—The West Chester Vilage Record gives an interesting de- sefipton of the army worm, with some detalls of ifs habits and propagatic Though resem- bling in appearance the “cut” worm, it 1s more Showy in the matter of colors. A golden hued band skirts the base of the body, while two dark lines pass along each side of the body and one down the back, The line along the back ts broader and not so well deiined asthe two on the sides. The head ts of a hard consistency, as well as the last segment of the body. There are Cight segments aside from the head and horny termination, after the manner of caterpillars, by looping, and is more active than the cut worm. It hatches from an €gg which is deposited at the base of the pe- rennial grass stalks. In the latltude of South ern Illinois and Missouri the hatching occurs dur- ing the early part of May, andthe young worms may feed by millions in a field without at- tracting attention. It varies by little from Ume of hatching until full grown. When full fed, about four weeks after hatching, tt descends into the ground, where it forms an open cham- ber and changes into a spring mahogany- colored buttertly. According to the American Lntomologist, tae army worin 13 accompanied by parasitic flies, which deposit eggs upon the body of the worm; the eggs hatch, and the mazgot formed destroys the worm. The disap- pearance of the grasshopper in the west 1s ac- counted for in a similar way, nature providing for the destruction as well as the creation ot Unese voracious insects. Mr. Samuel N. Hyde, the owner of a cornfield near Boothby Hill, Hartford county, Md., has entrenched his field against the army worm, and has so far defied their attempts to enter. He plowed a deep fur- row around the field and dug deep holes in the turrow about twenty feet apart. Being unable to climb the steep side, the worms would wander along until they dropped in the holes. As they accumulate in the holes he gave them @ mixture of straw, kerosine and fire. Tae holes are thus cleaned out and there 1s room for another batch. Other fields in the neighbor- ood are ewent 8 Clean as {f the corn never been planted.
