Invader of Hill Farm Not
Army Worm; Sanborn Reports
OXFORD GIVES HONOR
DEGREE TO PERSHING
'By Associated Press)
OXFORD,, Eng.., June 25. General
Pershing and Herbert C. Hoover rep
resented the United States today in a
Distinguished company of noted men from the allied countries who were honored today by Oxford university
with degrees of Doctor of Civil Law.
The ceremony was held in the Sheldo-
nian theater. It was the culminating
feature of the annual Encaenia or co-
memoration exercises. The event was , rich in ceremonial pomp fostered by the traditions of this famous institution. None of the spectators who crowded the theater showed the proceedings keener interest than a handful of American army students who have been studying here. Among those who witnessed the ceremony was Mrs. Hoover.
By WILLIAM R. SANBORN We were Informed that the army
worm had Invaded the east end of
Wayne county, out on the Eaton pike.
Wednesday morning, but it was a
false alarm.-
The scene of the alleged gathering
of the army worm was the George W.
Hill farm, near the traction viaduct on the Eaton pike. . On arrival we found that the little catalpa grove on the Hill place had been stripped of its foliage since Monday night, and that
the caterpillars had invaded the corn and potatoes at the western edge of the patch. Our investigation showed that neither the corn nor potatoes had been Injured, and that some young, soft maple trees had not been touched, though a beech tree had suffered the fate of the catalpas. Myron Hill was mighty busy all day Tuesday. He first plowed a deep trench around the corn and potato field, then commenced dragging a short heavy log around in the trench, which pleasant occupation kept him busy all day. He claimed to have
killed unnumbered millions by crush-
ing with the log, but a few are still alive and in evidence. Pest Infesting Shade Trees If you observe the catalpa trees
closely as you travel east by Glen
park and on to WestviUe, you will
note that the catalpa caterpillar has
arrived in spots. Here and there their
work of destruction is clearly appar
ent, though but few trees have yet
been attacked; all catalpas, so far as
our observation went. The damage to shade trees is so far almost negligble, except as to the little grove above noted, on which there is not a leaf in
sight. On our trip this morning we dis
covered a worm which is very fond of onions. We were told that some new varieties of bugs and things had been
discovered in the Richard B. Morrow garden, along the pike, so we stopped to investigate. On telling Mrs. Morrow that we were collecting bugs, etc, she told us to forage in the garden and help ourselves. Well, this new onion pest seeks a place In the sun. He climbs to the top of the stalk and begins to bore holes in his descent, making the onion top look like a sieve.
Any one knowing of sure death for
this little half-inch yellow and black
striped worm should communicate
with the Morrow folks.
A Sweet Corn Borer In this garden we also found a corn
borer at work in the sweet corn and you can locate this gentleman by noting that the corn leaves become
striped, like a fancy or ornamental
grass. Spraying doesn t seem to reach him, as he works under cover.
