FOR TH£FARMERS Items of Interest to the Farmers of Adams County. Hessian Fly. Indications are that' the Hessian Fly will be very numerous this fall. This insect is probably the most destructive wheat Rest in Indiana. This fact has been well demonstrated during the past few years. The shortage of farm labor und uncertainty of weather usually causes farmers to sow to oeurly in the season with the result that the wheat becomes infested, if ths fly-free date could be observed generally, there Is little doubt but that the Hessian Fly would be a scarce insect in a few years. There are two generations of the Hessian Fly. The insect itself is very small, about 1-10 of an inch long, of a dark color and has a form similar to a. small mosquito. The eggs are very small and are laid on the surface of the leaves, therefore it is very difficult to see them. The larvae works down to the lower part of the plant entering into the "Flax Seed" state. In this stage it passesni summer. During August and September the adults emerge from the flax seeds in stubble or volunteer wheat. This generation infests both volunteer wheat and all wheat sown before the fly-free date. The flies lay eggs on the wheat plants and the resulting larvae causes the characteristic stunted appearance of the infested wheat. Therefore it becomes apparent that wheat sowing should be postponed until the flies have hatched from the flax seed state in stubble and volunteer wheat. This permits them to be destroyed from having no wheat plants to feed upon. Co-operation in this matter is necessary since a single field of varly sown wheat is sufficient to infect an entire locality in the spring. The date recommended as being comporatively safe is September 26. Although sowing after the fly free date does not absolutely sure freedom from infections by fly, yet it. is a reasonable precatjffw which should not he neglected. .* WANT ADS EARN—s—s—s GLAD TO GET RID OF IT Mrs. Mary Bourke, 1097 N. Allister St., San Francisco, Calif., writes: ‘‘l have been troubled with backache; took two Foley idney Pills and they helped me so good my back stopped paining me.
