Army Needs Boost
Imports of Wool
WASHINGTON. .Nov. M. (API
-The agriculture department pre-1
dieted today that dome-die mill con
sumption of apparel wool during the
lemainder of the current wool sea-!
son, which ends next April 1. will
hi' considerably great than during j
Hie corresponding period ending
iast April 1. This increase, it said,
will lesult chiefly from the award
of large army contracts for wool
uoods in recent months.
Since the Cuited States usually
does not produce wool in sufficient
piant it iea for domesiic consump
tion, the large orders for the army
will increase substantially this
country's import requirements, the
department reported.
harm purchases in Argentina and
Crummy have been made recently
by American buyers. Wool pro
duced lu those countries, however,
is chietly medium and coarse wool,
whereas requirements hi the next

New Poison For
Control of Slugs
Found Effective
A scourge of the Kinall gray gar
den slugs devastating many fields
of fall-sown legumes can be effec
tively controlled if a new poison
can be obtained soon enough ami
applied in sufficient imntity, re
ports It. It. Thompson, associate
entomologist at Oregon State col
lege, who has just completed some
emergency experiments in Clacka
mas county.
A comparatively new substance
developed as a slug bait in Ktigland,
known as metaldehydn, gave per-
I 'tHt i'on,1'"l "h " Plt d' 1000 siiuare
lei'i. ii was one oi ii niaiuriais
tried in the laboratory and nine
tried in the Held. It gave four
times as effective control as the
second best material.
So far as known, this chemical is
produced in this country only by a
California concern and is available
at retail only in small garden quan
tities. The entomology department
is contacting all county aueuls in
tlie affected areas as to the pos
sibility of obtaining the poison in
bulk ami mixing it with wheat
bran for field application.
It is estimated that the cost of
such mixed bait would be about
$;t.fio per hundred pounds for ma
terials. The preliminary tests in
dicated that un application ot ! to
10 pounds per acre, broadcast by
hand, would give complete control

The pests are untisully numerous
this year, possibly because of two'

doing damage until cold weather ar- J
rives, it is believed, attacking crim-1
