Michigan Waging War On 175-Mile Front Against Corn Borer . By Edwin L. Heckler 1 (U. P. Staff Correspondent) -Laming. Mich., July 81—(United b PrMS .)_A line Os battle H being e«I tablished along a 175-mile from in II Michigan and around the northwest f corner of Ohm to tight the advance of the European corn borer toward the a granary of the middle west this sum- • mer. 1 Warfare of entoinologiffts against • the most destructive agricultural pest t of modern times will be carried on K with unlimited money and vigor but “ Michigan state exports who have studied the corn borer moth say the ’ task of stopping Its spread appears to J be hopeless. Control methods de--1 veloped arc by no means completely satisfactory, It is said, and merely de- ? lay spread of the borer. Work is now 1 being done in government laborator- ’ les to effect a new method of control. 1 While It is impossible to predict ‘ how long it will take for the borer to work it ways into Indiana. Illinois and ' lowa whciT a wide infection might threaten economic stability of the , entire west, the moths spread from the cast lake shore almost to the , ’ center ot Michigan in five years and ( last year the quarantine area in this ] ' state was doubled. Similar condi- j ' tions exist in Ohio and Pennsylvania. 1 1 Forty government inspectors, assist- ( ed by state police, will maintain the ] quarantine in Michigan this year. 1 1 The quarantine line runs from the ( southern point of Saginaw Bay to the | Indiana stale line. No corn of any ' sort or corn fodder is permitted to 1 pass from the infected area into the , non-quarantined area. In addition, ( squads of inspectors will maintain I watch all summer for appearance of i the pest in territory bordering the , quarantine line. Heavily infected j fields will be burned and farmers in- ' structed regarding methods of har- 1 vesting corn to slow the Infection ( spread. It is impossible to stop additional 1 infection of corn fields, however, be- 1 cause the borer moth will fly several ( miles from one field to another, ignoring quarantine lines and wishes of 1 agricultural authorities with impunity. 1 It is impossible to control conditions ' by lessening the corn acreage because J experimentation has shown corn bor- < ers live in 212 different plants when there is no corn in th P vicinity, returning to their natural habitat as soon as corn growing is resumed. s
