Metaldehyde, calcium arsenate bran bait broadcast where slugs are causing damage is the re commended control. Most deal ers carry slug bait in pellet form easily broadcast in the field. Indications are that many are unaware of the damage. One grower came in and said that spmething had defoliated fall planted crimson clover, causing destruction of the plants. He had not realized that slugs had caused the damage. Radio stations and local papers were informed as soon as we became aware of the situ ation.

Vernon Hepler, Barlow, re ports a 6 acre planting with a mixture of alta fescue, chew- ings fescue, sub-clover and New Zealand white clover. On an acre and a half of the 6, he included 15 pounds of European burnet. It will not be long until we can see how burnet is per forming under field conditions.
