Their attack under such cir cumstances mar be said to be artificial ly concentrated more or less against a specified injurious insect, and hence makes them more efficient agents in re- , during and assisting in the control of ' the ravage* of that species. A portion of these beneficial Insects would also be destroyed by any treatment of the corn looking to the artificial destruc tion of the boll worm. In view of these additional facta it seems best not to urge such a measure. As to the first preventive measure, some insist that cutting out infested corn early in the season endangers a good stand. In reply it can be said that, much of the corn being drilled in, some is chopped out at the time of the firat plowing. At the time of this first chopping a greater proportion of the drilled corn can be left and at the same time necessary to moat efficiently at tack* the bon worm the portion cut out will be counterbalanced by the slight excess left from* the first thinning, lint, as already stated, absolute chopping and burning need not be resorted to if care is exercised so that the crushing process be thoroughly done. In that case the worm is destroyed and the plant, as experiments have shown, is not materially injured, and still makes a good ear of corn. . To the second some object that by planting a trap crop in the manner rec ommended you actually encourage the greatest possible development in point of numbers, that succeeding broods will bo proportionately greater, and hence the measure will be worse than no remedy. This has already been par tially answered. The trap corn is reduced to the minimum in quan tity. This makes a maximum crowd ed condition which induces the maxi mum cannibalism in the species and, as already explained, actually makes the boll worm it* own destroyer. On the other hand,if the trap corn were not planted the moths would of necessity deposit on cotton. Here there is plenty of room and each individual worm would feed and mature independently; hence no conditions exist to induce their preying upon each other and the maximum number of worms attain m&- FARMER and PLANTER A certain cure for ( Tetter, Sail Rheum, Chronic Sorr*.

Fall plowing, at a preventive measure again*! boll worm in slightly infested regions, is not practical as a purely boll- worm measure In badly infested re gions it is to be done when possible. The great difficulty with this measure is that the top crop of cotton is seldom all picked timely enough to made fall plowing possible before the rainy, wintry season begins. Due to this fact, it must be urged that plowing be done in spring, as early as it is possible to plow and pulverise the soil. This early plowing, with the cold, rainy weather and occasional frosts, which occur as late as April 1, will insure the destruc tion of many of the chrysalids. Tba after preparation of the soil at planting time will doubtless destroy a small per centage of the surviving pupw. Early plowing, in addition to brings boll-worm preventive, has its strong ad vocates among leading agricultural men, whcsInsist that it should be fol lowed* as an improved method or prac tice of farming, since larger and better crops are produced when done, conx. Corn Is beyond doubt the choice food- plant of the boll worm. From about the middle of April, when the corn be comes large enough for the boll worm to work in it, this worm may be found, and continuously so on through tho season so long as green corn in suitable condition for good is found. Until about the middle of May or the 1st of June, boll worms are rarely found on any other plant than young corn. This FOUNDERS AND MACHINISTS, IYGR0SS IRON WORKS, - •• WAYGROSS, GEORGIA.
