CORDY County Extension Agent for Horticulture (Editor's note: This is one of a series of articles on gar dening subjects, prepared for The Mail Tribune by the Jack son . county agent for horti culture. They will be carried weekly during the garden ing season.) Most of our early plantings of corn are now tasseled out and producing silks.-This brings us to the point where corn earworm must be controlled. As soon as the silks emerge from the end of the ears, the earworm moth will deposit eggs on these young silks. In hot weather these eggs will hatch in about three days and the young larvae will crawl down into the end of the ear and start feeding. In order to get control it is necessary to apply a poison on these young silks after they be come visible but before these eggs hatch. Not all of the ears produce silks at the same time so for commercial control it is best to make the first applica tion three days after the first silks appear and one or two more -at three to four day in tervals after that. Spray or Dust Either a spray or a dust can be used. In either event the pois on should be directed toward the silks. For a spray use a heaping tablespoon of 50 per cent DDT in a gallon of water. For a dust use a 10 per cent DDT. Repeat applications care fully timed will give good con trol of the worms. In some cases eggs will be laid on the tassels. The worms will grow to about half size and then migrate to the ears. These frequently enter through the side of the ear and as a result are not killed by the poison in the silks. If trouble is exper ienced from this type of worm, it can be controlled by spraying or dusting the tassels as well as the silks. As the DDT is not applied to any edible part of the corn, there is no danger from poisoning as a result of its use. day as the underworld served notice its still trying to get the Shelton clan. Unknown assailants bombed a newly opened cafe in a building owned by notorious Big Earl Shelton, one-time member of Southern Illinois' toughest gang. Cafe Demolished The cafe, owned and operated by Roger and Betty Nicks, was demolished by the blast. The ex plosion tore out walls, doors, fixtures and sent glass flying down the street. Windows of buildings two blocks away were smashed by the explosion. Sheriff Elmer Brown said the windows of near ly every building adjoining the town square were broken. Brown, who came running to the scene in his bare feet, said he was not sure at first where the explosion was. "Hell, I thought they blew up the Fairfield National Bank," he said. Damage About $50,000 The sheriff said he estimated the damage to the building own ed by Shelton and adjoining structures at about S50.000. Russell Dixon, who lives near by in his funeral home, was blown out of bed by the blast. He said glass from his broken windows ripped into his bed room and tore up the furniture. Bill Theofanopoulos, driving on a highway about three miles east of here, said he heard the qxplosion and saw the flash when the bomb went off. Probably After Sheltons The sheriff said he "had no idea" who set the bomb off. He said, however, it was probably set by somebody who was trying to get back at the Sheltons. The Shelton clan terrorized the "Little Egypt" region of southern Illinois during the days of prohibition when it was war ring with rival factions.
