Strung; Hop Pest Near Hitlem.
-r ,
A special from Halem says;
Some of the hopgrowers of this
vicinity are alarmed oyer the
appearance of a new strange pest
which Is said to be engaged in
deadly work upon the new vines.
otto Hansen, of this city, who
owns a liopyard near Oak Grove,
in I'olk county, reports the dis
covery of a worm about the size of a
! thread and half an inch in length
j which is cutting the yonng sprouts
just above the hop roots and
nliould the pent become numerous
or general in its attack the fear is
;that it may destroy a large portion
'of tins year's crop.
.James Winstanley, secretary of
the Hopgrowers' Association, who
owns a yard north of this city is
said to haye iound the same pest
; but there has been no general in
i yeetigation to discover- whether it
exists in all vards of this section,
' nor has there been any scientific
I biography obtained of the obnox
'ious yisitor. Specimens will be
; submitted as soon as possible to
i the entomologist at the Corvallis
Agricultural College for classifica
tion and for the discovery, if
! possible of some means for its ex
termination. i The importance of the hop crop
'under present and prospective
' market conditions makes the ap-
: nearance of a threatening pest a
serious matter in this great center
1 of the hopgrowing industry.
