MARKET REPORTS Daily Report Os Local And Foreign Markets OPENING grain review ('hicago, June 3. —LUnltwl Proas.) — All grains opeimd higher on the Chicago board of trade thin morning. There was no change in the Juni *wheat price, but July was a good fraction higher, and the other positions were sharply up. The Liverpool prices were th e chief factor causing tho rise, although they were offset to some extent by reports of heavy I rains throughout the southwest, especially In* Kansas, .Missouri and Oklahoma. There was no frost in the northwest, but it is thought that had it occurred the crop is too far ad vanned to have suffered any damage ConditioniF’ were generally fair and cooler east of the Mississippi. Corn opened fractionally higher in all deliveries. With lighter offerings and increased inquiries from the Pacific coast and the southwest an upturn is expected in the trend o! this pit. Oats opened a small fraction highet in all positions, but will have anothet dull day.

These beetles destroy the young plants and later eat the steins I and destroy the flowers. Not only are the beetles destructive to the plants but they also carry a wilt disease which causes entire vines to wilt and die. Further they lay eggs. I iu the soil about the roots of the, plants from wbieji small slender white worms hatch and these inpure th/ plants by tunnelling the roots. An effective control for this Insect, | according to the tomologists of the. Purdue University Experiment Station. is dusting the plants regularly with a. mixture of one part calcium arsenate (not arcrate ot lead) and 20 parts by weight of gypsum or land plater. The first application of this dustshould be made when the first [ leaves appear or as soon at the first I beetle is seen and once every five or six days thereafter for five or six applications. The applications should i be uniform and thorough and best I results are obtained by applying with a dust, gun so that the dust will envelop the entire plant with a fine film of dust. — _ <j ■ ....

INVASION BEGUN BV ARMY WURMS Corn Pest Makes Appearance In Several Southern Indiana Sections Lafayette. Ind.. 3.— Army worms, which have played such hawoc with Hoosier corn crop* in a num her of Indiana counties the last few years, have appeared again In several southern Indiana sections, and have started ravaging of corn fields. This is tho word received today at Purdue University from Posey, Ikivioss. Jackson and Washington counties all ot which report bad infestations with the heaviest lossea in Posey county. Fros. J. J. Davis, head of the en- ■ tomology department, who predicted there appearance ot thew orms this year in Indiana, stated that they may be expected quite generally over the northern half of the state in the next I week or ten days. Poison bran bait I is recommended as the best means of (Kmtrolling them, once they start an invasion of any farm. Tills bait is made of 25 pounds of bran, twmfiplart of cheap feeding molasses which has I a strong odon and two or three gallons of water. This is mixed and made moist am., ticky enough to scatter where the worms are feeding. A dust furrow made in front of them and poison bait scattered in this fur- [ row will do much to check the worms. I "Any worms appear early iu spring I and lay eggs in grassy areas, especiI ally where there is dense grassy or I weedy growth often times in low spots I in the field,” said Prof. Davis in describing them. "'Here, the young caterpillars feed until three quarters of an inch long or until feeding conditions become unfavorable when they I begin migrating to new feeding grounds, which is oftentimes a cornfield. Grassy or waste places should be watched for army worms in the spring and treated accordingly. Where the worms appear scattered in a field, either a grass field, corn or small grain field, broadcast poison bran bait at the rate of ten pounds to the acre and one will need to cover cn’.y the parts of the field infested. On cloudy days, the worms may feed

throughout the day, but usually (hey come out and feed late in the afternoon and night, remaining concealed in the soil during the warmer part of the day. The i>olson bait, therefore, should be scattered into in the afternoon as the worms come out to feed.” Prof. Davis points out that the poison should be thoroughly mixed with the bran, and that the molasses should be diluted with the water before mixing. The bait should be damp enough to mold in the hand and break Into fine particles when broadcasted, but should not he sloppy.
