CHECK FOR CORN ROOTWORM BEETLES Corn rootworm populations of more then five beetles per plant may reduce corn yeild by interfering with the pollination process, say Purdue University extension entomologists. Population above this number may cause poor lear fill if heavy feeding occurs and silks are clipped back to ‘/j inch or less before 50 per cent pollination. Sampling techniques can help com producers determine if the beetles are present in high enough numbers before 50 per cent of the plants have been pollinated to justify a control treatment to reduce clipping. Sampling can also help determine if beetle counts are high enough during egg laying (late July through August) to warrant the recommendation of a soil insecticide in that field the following year (if going back to corn) or rotation to another crop. The entomologists offer the following suggestions for sampling: Begin checking corn for the presence of rootworm beetles when the fields begin silking. Refer to Extension Publication E-83, for pictures of both northern and western corn root worm beetles. To determine in beetle counts are needed, quickly walk across the field. If you see no beetles around or on the ears, you do not need to make further counts at this time. However, return to the field in two or three days to check for beetles again. Fields should be checked at least twice weekly until the silks have turned brown. If beetles are seen in the field, counts to determine the number present should be made. Counts on each of 10 randomly selected corn plants in each of five areas of the field must be made. Each count is made by randomly

Tunawiches...Any Way You Like Them! . \ * si

Just about everyone loves a tunawich! And now they’re easy enough for any hungry helper to make... provided he tackles the job with a package of Tuna Twist salad and sandw’ich mix in hand. With this mix and one simple stir, you can twist a can of tuna and a little mayonnaise into the most tasteful sandwich filling ever Inside every pouch, you’ll find all the seasonings and vegetables, like celery and onions, that go best with tuna. No chopping, dicing or slicing is needed! When the stirring's done and filling's made, chill until sandwich-spreading time. Then, raid the bread basket for something different...a slice of rye or pumpernickel, a pita round, a flaky dinner roll, a bagel. Line with healthy, frilly greenslike Romaine lettuce, endive or a spinach leaf. Next pile on plenty of tuna salad and top with a surprise—a cu cumber slice, a fresh mushroom, a crunchy pickle. ANY WAY-YOU-LIKE IT TUNAWICHES! (Makes 6 sandwiches) SANDWICH FILLING: 1 pouch onion, Italian or Cheddar cheese-flavored Tuna Twist sandwich and salad mix (from 2-ounce package)

selecting a plant and counting the beetles around the ear and on or in the silks. To determine this number, grab the silks in your hand, slowly open your hand, and count the number of beetles which crawl out, drop off, or fly away. Record the number. Repeat the operation for a second plant which is within 10 feet of the first plant. Repeat for each of the 10 plants in the area, then moved to the next area of the field and sample 10 more plants. Repeat until all five area and 50 plants have been checked. Determine the average number per ear by dividing the total number of beetles found by the total number of plants checked. When beetles are present, samples to determine the average number per ear must be made weekly. When silks turn brown, sampling may be discontinued. If a population requiring control measures (five or more beetles per plant) is identified, the entomologists recommend one of the following insecticides: 1. Carbaryl (Sevin 4 Oil) at one quart per acre by aircraft only. 2. Carbarl (Sevin) 80 per cent sprayable powder at 1 % pounds of formulation per acre. 3. Diazinon AG 500 at 1 pint per acre. 4. Malathion ULV (95 per cent Tech) at 4 ounces per acre. 5. Malathion 57 per cent EC at 1/5 gallon per acre.

ball coach George Griffith and Plymouth head football coach Bill Nixon are to be honored during the dinner meeting, at 7:00 p.m. Griffith received the 1977 Ball State Alumnus Coach-of-the-Year in basketball, while Nixon received a similar award in football. Griffith became the first person to win Ball State Alumni Coach-of-the-Year laurels in two sports, adding the 1976-77 basketball award to his 1973 golf honor. The latter came when he directed South Bend Adams to the state high school links title. Last year, Griffith's basketball team compiled a 24-4 record, and won the sectional and regional titles. In 1976, Nixon's Plymouth foot- | ball team enjoyed a 9-2 record and won the Northern Lakes Confer- I ence title for the second consecutive year. A golf outing will preceed the I dinner meeting.
