Lygus bugs have increased in most alfalfa, ladino clover and lotus fields to the danger point. Many growers have assumed that dusting is not necessary un til the bloom stage is reached. A pre-bloom dust has resulted in increased seed yield. An ap plication of 20 pounds of 10 per cent DDT dust formulated in sulphur is recommended for ly gus and weevil control. The ap plication should be made in the early morning during non-rainy periods. Increased seed yields have been secured in every seed pro ducing area where ample num bers of honey bees have been placed in the seed producing fields. Utah alfalfa seed produc tion dropped from three million pounds of seed prior to 1930 to only 165,000 pounds in 1932 when an embargo was placed on Importation of honey bees. Thla increased to 3.j million pounds in 1934 when the embargo was removed. Dr. H. A. Scullen, apiculturist of Oregon State college, found that 100 ladino clover seed heads yielded only 365 seeds when caged to prevent bee pollination. One hundred heads in the adja cent area exposed to bees yield ed 13,946 seeds. One to four or more colonies of bees per acre is desirable for maximum seed yield. W. B. Tucker, County Extension Agent.
