Ington, D. C., April 30.—The lof waste vegation in the early nd the construction of some barrier about harvest time mmended by the U. 8. Depart- Agriculture as the most sat- methods of controlling the bug. This pest is declared to of, if not the, worst insect ‘ that the American grain has to combat. It is sald, in- at if it were not for an oc- casional season of heavy rains at the right moment the chinch bug would make it altogether unprofitable to raise grain year after year on the same areas. Drenching rains during the hatching season, however, prove fatal to the voung.and such wet per- | jods are sufficiently ‘frequent to keep the numbers of the pest within bounds. There are two forms of the chinch bug, known respectively as the long- wing and the short-wing. The short- winged form occurs along the sea- coast and inland along the lower lakes | to northern Illinois. The long- winged form is found all over the ! country east of the Rocy Mountains | and is especially abundant in the | middle west, the section which suffers | . bug. js the most from the chinch Methods of Control. i The long-winged chinch bug two generations a year while it doubtful whether the short-wing has one or two. The adult insects pass the winter under clumps of broon:- \ has {1y few will survive to th sedge, matted grass, leaves, or in fact any convenient form of waste vege- tation, from which they emerge in the spring to deposite their cggs in necar- by grain fields. When the young hatch from the eggs they cluster upon the plants and begin at once to feed upon the juices. S Iy after mid- summer this first gencration have be- come adults and deposit their eggs in turn. When these eggs are hatched the young fasten on corn, millet, kafir, and similar crops. To control the pesi, therefore, a new publication of the U. S.
