" The campaign' staged,tiie. first of the year against the corn borer in northern Ohio evidently has not set well. While there is some danger of that pest to cqrn crops, farmers from the northern part of the state are'top in arms in the method used and the hardship placed on them. The campaign has also become a political issue and several candidates have announced for 1 the legislature on a platform to fight further legist totive appropriations, One ‘candidate is out for congress On the same plat- forpn , _ " The^corn borer control Committee of the’ O. S. U. is out with a state­ ment this week urging congress tb appropriate.funds to repay farmers for the extra labor they were, requir­ ed to perform while thousands of dol­ lars went into the pockets of politic- ana and companies selling all sorts of machinery to be used in that work. The committee asserts that if fin- encial help is refused the farmers and money continues to be expended as in tho past “for machinery operations, scavenger crews and road patrols, the reaction on the farmers infested areas will be unfavorable, and it is doubt­ ful, if a satisfactory cleanup will be secured.” The Ohio legislature appropriated huge fund for the clean up _cam­ paign but the most of it went into the "hands of politicians,, .sons of the House and Senate and to the lobby dement that was responsible for the Expropriation.
