Reports indicate that farmers are noticing much Hessian liy damage in thtir wheat, Prof. M. iT. Swenk, chairman of the department ejf ento medogy says. Yv'he.at plants Kent in have been examined by college ento r.io!ojsts who have found varying amounts of infestation. Tim variation in degree of infes. taticn brings up the old problem cf whether or not to abandon winter wheat land in laor ol coin, can", or sudan grass. No one can answer for tiie individual farmer, Swenk believes. The farmer must consider the stand of wheat he has on the field, acreage of corn, wheat, oats and other crops on his place, how well fixed he is to handle other grain tir forage crop-' should be plow up the wheat, and similar problems of farm management. I. II. Stewart and D. L. Gross, ex tension service agronomists, have in spected fields around Lincoln and in the south central part of the state. They report that in some of the fields the fly will cut down the yield of wheat per acre very materially. Where fields are found to be very heavily infested, and the plans are already stunted, Stewart and Gross recommend that the wheat be plow ed or disked and the land put to other crops. Corn planted between now and the f ix-t of July should ma ture in a normal season. Cane and sudan grass can b? plantcu in June and still make forage. Nothing can be done now to con trol the Hessian Hy or to cut down the damage it will do. Keeping down volunteer wheat and delaying seed ing i:i the rail until after tne laying season cf the Hy is over are he only practical means of prevent ing fly damage, Professor Swenk says. teimed the visit "purely a friendly one, with no connection witi tho Lindbergh case."
