WAYNE GHINGH BUGS FLYING; HOPE RAINS WILL DESTROY PESTS
The Wayne county chinch bugs, as many as have survived the campaigns of the farmers, are firmly entrenched in the corn fields now, and farmers are generally awaiting the advent of the second brood, hoping that it will not be too numerous or that wet weather may discourage it and push the corn ahead of possible ravages by the insecu. The bugs have been flying for several days now, and at this time practically all have matured. The earliest to
mature began flying about two weeks j pgo. It is impossible to fight them j after they begin to fly except by spray-1 ins, and it is impracticable to spray a whole 40 acre field, which would have to be done to eliminate them after a field has become thoroughly infested. Some fanners have been spraying corn for the first infestation, however, using the kerosene emulsion, or black leaf 40 sprays. Successful In Fight, Greatest success in combating the chinch bugs was found when they were in the immature stage, and were crawling from one field to another in Fearch of more food. At that time furrows were plowed and post hole traps dug along them, by which means many were killed. Some holes caught enough bugs to fill a quart measure in the course of a few hours. Other nearby counties, which at first thought themselves free from the infestation, have discovered the presence of the pest, but somewhat later than Wayne county farmers. Fayette county has reported every farm in the three northern townships infested, with many more in the next three townships to the south. Henry county also has the bugs in practically all parts of the county, while Randolph county has suffered, if anything, more severely than Wayne. Delaware, and Jay counties also had 6evere infestations. Preble county in Ohio had many chinch bugs in the northwestern corner, around New Paris and north, while south of Wayne in Union county the Philomath neighborhood had large numbers. Farmers now are praying for a wet reason which will kill many of the bugs, and all who have had losses this
year, are intending to burn out fence
rows and other harboring places this
winter, in order to forestall another
such disaster next year.

room where milk samples may be collected and analyzed for their bacterial content with state equipment and apparatus. Results of the analysis will be sent to the state board and then will follow a survey of dairy and milk handling conditions.

dustry may be called on to assist in

ALLEGE EXCESSIVE

road was approved by the state board I
