Eelworms Are
Crop Threat
Nematodes, or eelworms, today
stand exposed by research for the
crop destroyer they really are.
Those that attack plants haven t
received much attention in the past,
according to Dr. O. Sleiner, plant
nematologlst, because as a rule they
do not actually kill the plants but
what Is often worse for Uie farmer
they lower vigor and keep down
yields. If they killed their hosts,
says Stelner, measures would be
taken against them sooner. By re
ducing yields they lead farmers on
to long-continued unprofitable crop
ping and much waste of labor, seed
and fertilizer.
On the other hand, the nematolo
glita have come to believe that one
explanation of the vigor of some
widespread weeds la the fact that
they are not attacked by nematodes,
at least not by such common and
widespread ones as the one causing
rootknot In so many crops.
Ragweed Is already known, says
Dr. Stelner, as a plant that stands
up well alongside most crop plants
because nematodes, including the
one responsible for rootknot, pass
It by. Now, he says, they are hoping
to turn their research on Mexican 1
clover (a plant of the Madder '
family, with the botanical name ;
Rlchardia scabra), a widely distri- ;
buted weed which In the Southeast I
is often called Florida purslane. He I
suspects Its wide adaptation also 1
may be grounded in Its freedom
fi om nematode attack.

Clean Eggs
Keep Better
Cleaning dirty eggs is one of the
most time consuming Jobs on a
poultry farm. Most dirty eggs are
cleaned with a mechanical or hand
buffer equipped with fine sandpaper.
The question frequently comes up
whether or not dirty eggs should
ever be washed.
Clean unwashed eggs will main
tain better quality than washed or
dirty eggs. Experimental results
from Cornell show, however, that if
eggs are washed In clean win
water at 160 degrees or warmer they
will keep practically as well as clean
unwashed eggs. The deterioration of
washed or dirty eggs is caused by
bacterial Infection from the dirt on
the shell. When eggs are washed In
cold water, there is a tendency to
draw the bacterial to the inside of
the shell. When eggs are washed
In warm water, dirt and bacteria
are drawn out of the shell.
In producing market eggs, every
effort should be made to produce
r.c-roof for the lost time with
J-M Asbestos Shingles
Johns-Manville Shinies have the permanence of stone. Not on
has ever burned. Not one has ever worn out Because of these
qualities, yon will find that they cost less per year of service than
any other roofing material yon can bay.
