OATS INFESTED

Purdue Experts Report Damage Varies in Sections; Suggest Salvage.

Hitler and Mussolini, Europe's [scheming aggressors, are being hand by another menace—the European corn borer. The latest invader is attacking

numbers to cause considerable damage. G. E. Lehker, Purdue univer-

Infestation of the oats field in the state varies from only a few dam-

The borer feeds within the oats stems, causing the heads to blast or turn white and a share of the to break prematurely. In most cases, infested plants fail to produce any grain, The present heavy infestation may be accounted for by the late planting of corn this year. Weathet conditions preventing many farmers from plowing for oats, and the large number of corn stalks in the oats fields may have contributed to the heavy infestation in oats as well as in corn, Mr. Lehker said. Oats fields so heavily infested that they are not worth harvesting for grain may be cut for| hay, Purdue agronomists advise,
