That the Hessian fly can be success fully controlled by practical methods has been demonstrated In Harvey coun ty, Kan. Under the leadership of F. P. Lane, county agent for the Harvey comity farm bureau, a large number of farmers were organized last sum mer and fall to fight the fly. Methods of control advocated by Mr Lane were those devised and recom mended by the department of entomol. ogy In the Kansas State Agricultural college—to thoroughly prepare the seed bed, destroy the volunteer wheat and plant on or about the fly free date, which In Ilnrvey county Is Oct. 8 or 9. A large per cent of the wheat acreage of the county was planted according to these directions, although the wenth er conditions hindered the work consld erably. A representative of the college de partment of entomology visited a man her of Wheatfields In the county before harvesting began. In nearly every case where the crop was planted ac cording to the methods advocated there was practically no fly Injury. A few fields that were planted before the fly free date or In which no efTort was made to destroy the volunteer wheat were all badly Infested and the yield reduced. In some cases where late sown fields adjoined stubble fields or early sown fields considerable Injury was noted, showing the necessity of co-operation In the control of the fly. An exi>erlment was carried out on the farm of Frank Lawton, near New ton, to show the value of planting wheat on or about the fly free date A plot of wheat was planted each week, beginning Sept. 20 and eontlnu ing until Oct. 23. The plots planted on Sept.20, Sept. 27 and Oct 4 were almost e’ntlrely destroyed by the fly. Those plots planted after Oct. 4 came through with little or no fly Injury and a good yield. NORMAL NOT ENOUGH Oregon has but one Normal Schoçl. This school Is located at Monmouth. Excellent as Is the work of this school It Is utterly unable to supply but a small part of the need for tralhed teachers for the State.
