Has Your Wheat Been Infested With the Hessian Fly This Year?

WASHINGTON, July 1. "Has your wheat been infested by the Hessian fry this season?" is a question that the United States department of agriculture is now asking farmers. The information is desired that there may be general co-operation between all concerned in reducing the devastations of the fly. There is every indication that the pest will be unusually troublesome to the crop this fall. Every wheat grower in the country who suspects that his crop has been Infested is requested to send his name to the department's bureau of entomology at Washington, D. C with a request for a question blank. The questions, to. be answered are merely as to whether the wheat grower's crop was infested at certain seasons. The farmer will then be asked to forward some of the infested wheat plants for examination, postage to be paid by the government. He will also be asked to give his name, address and the nearest railway station. The department is co-operating with various state experiment stations in this campaign against the Hessian fly,

and in some cases the infested straw will be sent by the farmer to local stations ' for examination. The wheat grower can learn just where his sample of straw is to be sent when he sends his name to the department, indicating his willingness to send the sample. The ' department encourages the sender not to be afraid to forward too much of the straw, even though it has to be sent by parcel post. The upper part of the straw need not be sent, but enough above the ground should be included to get the insect In what is known as the "flaxseed" stage when the larva is incased in a hard, brown skin and somewhat resembles a flaxseed. Late sowing of the seed and burning of the stubble when not seeded to grass or clover are the only measures known to date that are effective in controlling the Hessian fly that is, for winter-wheat sections. In the spring wheat sections, late seeding will not apply. On the contrary, the earlier it is sown in the spring the less it seems to suffer from this pest.

Smith-Lever Agricultural Extension Bill Aids Indiana

VIENNA. July 1. Following rpniwit

e,d attacks on Servian subjects in Aus-1

man territory resulting from bitter feeling caused by the assassination of Archduke Francis Ferdinand, the government of Austria-Hungary today ordered that guards be placed over every Serb consulate in the country. This measure was a precautionary one to prevent any outrages for which the Belgrade government might demand reparation and bring the two nations to the verge of war. That the situation growing out of the assassination was serious was admitted by high Austrian officials. Loyal subjects of Emperor Francis Joseph have been inflamed by reports that the youth who attacked the archduke with a bomb had confessed that

the order on which he acted came to him from Belgrade.

The Smith-Lever Agricultural Ex- ; tension bill which was passed by Con- f

gress and approved by the President May 8th, 1914, went into effect today, July 1, 1914. This bill provides for co-operative u agricultural extension work bythe state and the United States Department of Agriculture, and also appropriates for the year beginning July 1, 1914, $10,000 to each state. For the year beginning July 1, 1914, an additional $600,000 is appropriated to be pro-rated among the several states according to agricultural population. For each of the seven years following, $500,000 additional is to be

appropriated to be pro-rated on the same basis. It is estimated that at the end of nine years Purdue university will receive through this bill about $140,000 annually. Professor Christie, head of the Indiana State Agricultural Extension Department, plans to use these funds in broadening the scope of the extension work now being done in Indiana. Experts will be secured to supplement the work of the county agents. The county agent cannot be a specialist in any one particular line, and these experts will be sent out

ROOSEVELT PEEVED BY WILSON SUCCESS RETORT DEMOCRATS

WASHINGTON, July 1. Democratic senators of both the radical and conservative wings of the party united today in denouncing Colonel Theodore Roosevelt for his speech in Pittsburg

last night in which he charged the Democrats with breaking promises. "The diagnosis by the colonel's physician in which it was stated that the

former president is suffering from an enlargement of the sple'en seems to

have been correct," sai Senator

Thomas, of Colorado. "Mr. Roosevelt

appears to be angry at the success of the Democratic party in its legislative

program, and is trying to convince the people that it has accomplished noth

ing."

Senator Kern, of Indiana, Democratic leader, said the he made it a rule never to discuss Roosevelt's speeches, because it would keep him too busy.

USE BLOODHOUNDS TO TRAIL MURDERER

NEW YORK, July 1. In an attempt to solve the mysterious murder of Mrs. Louise Bailey, a pretty matron

or fiempsieaa, in the office of Dr. Edwin Carman at Freeport last night, bloodhounds were brought but failed to unravel the puzzle. The murder is the most baffling the Long Island police have ever had to deal with. The blood hounds took up the trail under the window through which the shot was fired and followed it as far as Lynnbrook nine miles away, but stopped there. Dr. Carman says he believes that the person who killed Mrs. Bailey intended to murder him instead.
