Biddle, Agent uauas, uregon. foimnoNnwrAR tons ttxm ooutfti and haavlaluntfa TWO GREAT CORN km. In his little book entitled the "A B C of Corn Culture" Trofessor Holden, the corn expert, classifies the com root worm and the corn root louse as the two greatest enemies of the corn plant. He estimates that the damage to the crop In the corn belt alone from the first pest is not less than 200,000,000 bushels annually. The loss Is so serious as to Invite the attention of all corn growers. Mr. Holden states that out of 600 fields which he examined In Iowa. Illinois. Kansas and Missouri over 400 were more or less Injured by the corn root worm. One reason for the general lgnerance that seems to prevail touching the damage of this pest is that it works entirely undei ground and gradually. The eggs, which are laid by a little grass colored beetle along in August and September, hatch in the following June and early July. As soon as they are hatched the worms onbr fho mots nnd burrow back and forth lengthwise through the roots and just beneath the outside covering. As high as 200 of these worms have been found in a single hill of corn. The roots attacked rot; the stalks lose theit vitality and break over easily or fire In the August weather. A heavy wind storm Is likely to prostrate an entire field. The corn root worm is liueiy xo Infest any field which has grown corn more than two years In succession, and the only remedy is to put the Infested land into some other crop, preferably clover, for a period of two years. In other words, damage from this pest la practically nothing on farms where an Intelligent system of crop rotation Is in vogue. Ravages by the worm are sim ply a protest against an agricultural system that Is wrong In both theory and practice. Next to the corn root worm tlit worst enemy the corn plant has to contend with is the corn root louse oi aphis. They are smaller than the head of a pin, bluish green in color and ap pear in clusters on the roots of the corn early in the spring. They are al ways associated with ants, which act as their guardians, protecting them and carrying them to the roots of the corn. When disturbed by the ants they exude from their honey tubes a sweetish substance, called "honey dew," on which the ants feed. The damage from the corn root louse Is done largely while the plant is young and immature and its roots are juicy and tender, it being the Juice in tho root that the lice feed upon. When a field has suffered from the lice, damago the following season may be greatly decreased by cultivating and harrow ing the field thoroughly before the corn comes up and giving it frequenl cultivation afterward. This not only disturbs the work of the ants, but hastens the growth of the corn. As in the case of the corn root worm, tho best preventive of damage from tho lice is a system of crop rotation, which does not allow them to get a foothold in the soli. Experiments conducted by Trofessor Forbes of the Illinois experi ment station showed that the damage by the lice could be greatly lessened by treating the seed before planting with a solution made by mixing one part of oil of lemon with nine parts of wood alcohol, using three ounces of tho solution to a gallon of seed. IIe found that the ants would keep away from corn thus treated. After six weeks treated rows had one-ninth as many aphides as the untreated, while at the end of ten weeks the treated hills of corn stood 74 per cent higher than those untreated. In the case of both of these pests as well as other enemies of the corn plant damago seems to be reduced to a minimum un der a system of crop rotation, which not only Is the best thing for the soil, but produces the largest crops as well.

Ballard Snow Liniment Co. 500-502 North Second Street, ST. LOUIS, MO.. EXPERIMENTAL SEED PLOT. Every farmer should have an experi mental seed plot on his own farm. For his corn this should be a detach ed field or a plot at one side of Irs main field, where he should plant corn from the best cars he has saved. The effectiveness of such an experimental corn plot can bo greatly increased If he will go through this corn just be fore the pollen begins to shed and cut the tassel off every stock which does not give promise of producing a thrifty ear. This vill effectively prevent ears produced on thrifty stalks being fer tilized by pollen from weak or worth less ones. Enough seed corn ought to be secured from such a plot to plant the cutlre corn acreage the succeeding season. Such experimentation Is car ried on by many farmers and should bo followed by many more. Tho sav ing of seed in such manner for sev eral years ought to Increase tho yield of corn from the farm fist n vrhnln many bushels per acre. Badly Mixed Up. Abraham Brown, of Winterton, X. V., had a very remarkable experience; he says; "Doctors got badly mixed up over me ; one said heart disease ; two called it kidney trouble; the fourth blood pnison, and the fifth stomach and liver trouble; but none of them helped me; so my wife advised trying Electric Bitters, which are restoring rne to perfect health. One bottle did me more good than all the five doctors prescribed." Guaranieed to cure blood poison, weakness and all stomach, liver and kidney complaints, by Belt & Cherrington druggist, 50c.

Experiments conducted on n number of Minnesota farms last year under the direction of the state experiment station with a view to determining the cost of producing the different kluds of farm crops show that the most econom ical handling of the corn crop consists In planting thickly a relatively small portion of the farm area for fodder purposes, husking the main crop In the field and pasturing off the stalks. The shredding of corn stover was found to bo a costly practice and only Justifia ble when the hay crop Is short or badly uamagcu. wme Minnesota Is outside the limits of the corn belt, it Is likely that the findings would be applicable to quite a portion of the strictly corn growlug territory, in which hay "would not fetch better than $7 a ton.
