United States Department of Agriculture, In view of reports of an Impending outbreak of the pest In that state. Widespread and severe infestations of the pest are reported In the whole central Mississippi valley region, starting in northern Texas and extending In a norlheasterly direction over Oklahoma, Kansas and Missouri, touching Nebraska, and extending across Illinois and Indiana Into Michigan. Generally Distributed Through State. The chinch bugs, latest advices say, have had a mild winter and are gendistributed the erally throughout Missouri wheat and rye fields, breeding In considerable numbers in the St. Louis neighborhood early iu May." The farmers. It Is snld, have been watching the pest more closely than usual this spring, but all of them do not know yet that there is danger that their corn may be damaged worse than normal last year. Wheat is likely to ripen one or two weeks earlier this year, and the rains have delayed the planting of corn. The bugs are certain to migrate when the wheat ripens and the corn will be so backward that damage by the bugs Is likely to be very severe. It Is well to expect the bugs to begin migrating to corn as soon as the wheat butts begin to harden Into maturity ten days before the heads are ripe. Any barrier work or creosote repellant line work should begin as the bugs will migrate In increasing numbers as the wheat stalk ripens upward. The binder will shake loose those not already out and stragglers will continue to migrate in serious numbers for five John T.
