THE ARM! WORM
ATTACKING FIELDS OF HAY IN
WAPELLO COUNTY AND OTHER
PARTS OF IOWA.
Letter Received From Prof. W. L.
Bowman of Iowa State College at
Ames—May Not be Present Next
Year—How to Check Advance.
The worms which have been found
in the timothy hay on several farms
in Wapello county and the state are
said by Prof. W. L. Bowman, instruc
tor in farm crops at Ames college,
to be the army worm. Prof. P. G.
Holden, professor of agronomy at the
Ames college, was given a sample of
the hay on which were several of
the worms, when he spoke at the Ot
tumwa Chautauqua a few weeks ago.
Following is a copy of the letter
received from Professor Bowman:
Mr. A. W. Lee, Editor Ottumwa
Courier, Ottumwa. Iowa.
My Dear Sir:—When Prof. Holden
was-in .your city .delivering a lecture
before the Chautauqua, he was given
a sample of timothy hay which con
tained several worms and was asked
what they were. Not being entirely
sure of their identity, he promised to
reply later. Not having the gentle
man's name, we write you in regard
to the same.
The sample received is the army
worm. This worm is attacking fields
in different parts of the state at this
time. There is practically nothing
which can be done to remedy this
pest when they are present in such
limited numL-ers as they appear to
be at the present time. The fa,ct that
tney are damaging the fields this year
is no evidence that they will be pres
ent next year, as the fungus diseases
and parasites which work upon this
larva while they are pupating, gener
ally manage to kill the greater part of
them.
To Check Advance.
In cases where large numbers of
these larva have been present and
in sufficient quantities to have de
stroyed the entire crop, they have
been checked in their advance by dig
ging a trench before their line of
march and placing straw in it, set
ting flre to this when the larva reach
it, but in no case would this remedy
be applicable when they are present
in a limited degree.
Very respectfully yours,
W. L. Bowman,
Instructor in Farm Crops.
