SORER IN EARLY CORN Many fields o f corn planted the first part o f May show a heavy yi festation o f corn borer. Com planted, late in May and early June does not show very much borer infection as yet, but may get enough second gen* eration larva in September to serlouB* ly hurt it. Last year the second generation o f borer caused ^talk breaking even though* the ears were well formed and made it difficult for mechanical pickers to gather the crop-success,, fully. It is logical to assume* that there will be more second generation borers this year; since the infestation this spring was much heavier than a year ago. POTATOES AND OATS ALSO ATTACKED Potatoes and oats have also been attacked by the borer this year. It is doubtful whether ahy serious re­ duction in potato yields will result since only an occasional wilted branch or plant can be found in which larva is feednig. However most o f these will give rise to a second generation of borers. Nothing can be done about this, as the moths will have left the potato fields before the crop is har­ vested. Borers can be found in practically all oat fields, however the damage in most cases was light. A few have migrated from the oats to-adjoining soybean fields where they may bp found boring in the soybean stems. The lire also in pigweeds adjacent to or in 'ia t stubble fields. • CONTROL BORER BY PLOWING DOWN SWEET CORN FODDER The European corn borer which caused serious damage to early sweet !0rn should be destroyed to prevent their second -generation. , A t present, the larvae in early sweet corn are mostly full grown and many have pupated. All sweet corn fodder should be destroyed as soon as the crop is harvested because the first of the second generation moths are or soon will be emerging. These moths will lay their eggs on later planted corn for the second generation of the -borers. , POISONOUS PLANTE Poisonous plants most likely to in­ jure livestock are •water hemlock, poison hemlock and white snakeroot, The- water hemlock is found iin wet areas and the poison is contained in' the roots. White snakeroot grows in open woods on rich damp soils. Wilted .'leaves of choke berry, wild black-cherry apd buckeye contain a poisOn which Will kell livestock eat­ ing-such foliage. SEED WHEAT ' • The poor wheat crop is creating a strong demand for seed wheat. The shipping in o f high test weight wheat for seeding has been suggested how­ ever, transportation problems present a problem and most o f fhe wheat sown by farmers this fall must come from their own or nearby farms. Ejgvator operators and . seedmen should be contacted for seed wheat .at once by farmers desiring it. How­ ever these sources will be unable to supply the demand >for seed wheat this fall. Therefore farmers must look principally to their own seed o f recommended, varieties now in use. 'If the wheat germinates satisfactorily it should be thoroughly recleaned- screening and blowing out the shrivel­ ed and diseased, light-weight kernels 1 steam, Hand and for all purposes, Y Belts, Plumbing pplies. 0 C K L E T T L Y C O .

Jamieson. Minister A . M, Supt. Greene County’s melon man was never listed in a. seed catalog. No one ever knew how It originated ex­ cept that the first seed were given over to my father by Tom Spencer, an earlier day melon raiser. There were in fact three separate generally as the “ Spencer Long varieties, and which we classified Green,” the “ Spencer Round Green,” and the “ Spencer Long Light” . These melons grew to great size, the largest on, retard being 65 pounds, and turned oyer'to the Xenia Court House Staff for a feast. The .seed were near black and the m eat's rich dark red. The melons did not produce many seed such as the more modern white seeded Klecley Sweet. Vines grew to great length and often produced- as many as 15 fruit, . ' My father’s choice of canteloupe was the Tip Top and the Ohio Sugar, the latter being a sitniliar strain with green flesh. For show purposes he propagated a longish, deep ribbed and netted type which grew to htigh pro­ portions, The largest 1 recall was, 17 pounds. .1. Although, as I have said, my father through all the years .seldom failed to show up with his well loaded melon wagon, there was but a single season which could be classed as a near per­ fect crop. This was a twelve acre tract on the Cy Lackey farm, mid­ way between Cedarville and James­ town. Several factors contributed to this, one lucky break, First, the soil was ideal-heavy virgin sod. Spring allowed fo r early planting, and the summer *was . unusually dry. ' The vines suffered greatly, and great cracks opeped in the ground, many so large that melon sets dropped into them and bulged out in their growth into many distorted shapes. But just when the young sets -were beginning to shrivel and drop foy lack o f mois­ ture, there came in the,night a gentle steady downpour that, persisted for hours. It was made .[to order, and although few other; rains, came for the remainder o f the season the fruit matured, in such size abd quality as never seen before in thj» section. For* two, months, up to ten. spring wagons were kept going every day through the week, with several “ two-horse” loads in addition on Saturdays, So great was the crop that “ wholesale” disposal was necdssaby, afrd. great quantities Were sold at a flat rate o f 8- cents per melon. ’ The average was 20 pounds and many exceeded 40 pejunds. This crop netted my father over $10,000 after paying $185 per acre rental for the season. A- try fo r a second patch on the same tract, the first gamble my father ever took, resulted in complete failure. An adjacent tract produced fine crop but it was cut short by the deadly AnthracnoBe, As I look back now, I can realize something of the romance which must have attracted my father to the rais­ ing o f melons. Although it was risky business for this section and it kept him poor, he obtained iflany moments o f joy in it, although it broke him in spirit in the end. Permit me in ending to relate this little episode which I think will have represented to him a reward greater than he realized at the time, and not­ withstanding, its holding in escrow till his journey into a better clime: As I recall, it was a season o f near failure. There would only be a few loads, not enough for the l&nd rental and a hard winter with debts stood In the offing. In one spot in the. patch the vines remained green and among the sparse fruit were two fine specimens over which he had watched with great care. One day he gave the melons a thump and pronounced them ripe. Taking out his knife he carefully snipped them and said t6 me, “ Son, We should keep these for ourselves but I just happened to think of poor old colored Bill Jones, Bill has been si6k and he won’t be here much longer. You .take these two melons to Bill so he can die in peace”. Sabbath School 10 Harold Dobbins. Preaching 11:00 A . M, Theme, "Our Heavenly Father Cares.” No Y. P, C.
