The chinch hug fortunately does not feed on any of the legumes. Other crops immune from its attack are sunflowers, rape, stock beets, buckwheat. pumpkins, squashes and all of the truck or garden crops except ? a,-,- so-call- consist of (1) burning the bugs in their winter quarters, avoiding their attacks by growing crops on which they do not' feed, and (3) killing them by the use of barriers, sprays and dusts at the time of the sm;i!!-grai- n harvest. Numerous other methods of control have been tried at various times, and. although some bugs cun he kil led by most of them, the three just mentioned are the only means that have proved really practicable and effective. Two of llie most important natural enemies of the hug white fungous disare the ease and a tiny wasplike egg parasite. Because of uncertainty as to the duration of the chlnch-bcoutbreak, however, it is never safe to depend upon natural agencies to prevent losses. Reduce Grain Acreage. Where chinh bugs become persistently abundant it is recommended that the" acreage of small grains, especially wheat, be reduced as much as practicable and the land sown to resistant or inymune crops, particularly legumes. Legumes, such as red and sweet clovers, alfalfa, vetch, soy beans and cowpeas, need not be grown by themselves, but may well be planted in small grains and corn where practicable. A copy of the bulletin, containing detailed information concerning the chinch hug and its control, may be obtained free, while the supply lasts, from the United States Department of Agriculture.

In the case of the lamb, tie same observations are pertinent, although it must be recognized that the spread between the producers and consumers price is less than in the case of wool, lie labor involved in getting meat, in shape fer the consumer is very muich less than is required in pocessing wool and there are fewer steps in the route of distribution. Outlet for Lamb The sheepman today is seriously interested in the enlarging of the outlet for lamb. A material increase in the supply is in evidence, for which, outlet must be found at home. The increase in wool will replace imports without creating a surplus or necessitating inchease cf con-supticn to absorb the supply. Certainly lamb is becoming more popular, but will the rate of increase in demand keep pace with the rate of increase in die amounts rcacli- m ?v Buy Fat VEAL, F?m CHICK.
