Outbreaks of web worms in corn in

October or November has little effect

grown up to weeds and gruss should
be plowed In July or August, if it Is

lowing spring.
Gmnslands of all kinds—meadows,
pastures, or lawns—furnish the nor­

also gnaw young corn plants below
the surface and deform them so as
to prevent the production of grain.
After the corn is once planted and

Is no practicable method of getting
rid of the worms; the only thing that
can be done is to produce conditions
that will permit the corn to grow in

Disking in the spring, the application
of fertilizer, and the sowing of sound
seed are the chief preventive meas­
ures that will have any effect. Nei­
ther poisoning nor trapping has met
with any success.
