war on Chinch
Bugs Is'Urged
by Nebraskan
University Professor Says Now
Is Proper Time to Rid
Land of Farm
Pests.
Lincoln, Nov. 29.—Chinch hugs
were abnormally abundant In Severn!
Nebraska counties during the sjm
mcr just past and the bugs did con
siderable damage, especially along the
southern border of the state. Prof. M.
'V. Swenk, entomologist of the Ne
braska university argieultural college,
said In a statement Issued today.
"In the area In which there are
chinch bugs,’’ Professor Swenk said,
"they (liave gone into wintering in
sufficient numbers that the safety of
small grains and corn crops of 1924 is
more or less seriously menaced."
Speaking of a preventative against
the ravages of the chinch bugs, the
entomologist said that "co-operative
experiments with farmers in many lo
calities have shown that where these
bug-infested areas have been syste
matically burned during November
and December, the chinch hug prob
lem has been solved for the ensuing
year."
He declared that Richardson, Paw
nee. Gage, and parts of Nemalia,
Johnson, Webster, Lancaster, Saline,
Jefferson, Thayer, Nuckolls, Frank
lin, Harlan, Furnas. Custer, Frontier,
Dawson, Boyd and Keya Paha, were
infested to a certain extent with
chinch bugs.
* “The same condition occurs over
northern Missouri, eastern Kansas
and a large part of Oklahoma,” he
added.
Professor Swenk's statement, as
given to the Associated Press, follows:
Farmers Are Warned.
"The chinch bug problem was a
subject of careful discussion by the
entomologists of these four states at
a meeting at Kansas City October 29,
and it was there decided that an en
ergetic effort should be made to ac
quaint the farmers in the threatened
areas of these states with the fact
that now Is the time when the chinch
bug can be most successfully con
trolled. Whenever the bugs haj^B
caused injury during tjie preceding
season, 90 per cent of them will be
{ound in the fall hibernating in the
clump forming grasses, such as
bunch grass' and blue stem, in mead
ows, pastures, ravines, waste places
and along roadsides.
"It is therefore, imperative for the
farmer to find out whether his grasses
are harboring a dangerous number of
bugs, and if they are found to do so,
he should burn all the bug-infested
grasses without delay and get his
neighbors to co-operate with him. If
these measures are neglected, and
with climatic conditions favorable for
the bugs, wheat, com and sorghums
will suffer severely next year.
"All clump forming grasses found
along the railroad right-of-ways, road
sides, ravines and waste areas should
be burned over, if it is found that
they are harboring chinch bugs. If
bugs are abundant they can be seen
by parting the stems close to the
crown of the plant. When no huge
are found by this method, then a
number of clumps should be dug up
at random over the area and pulled
to pieces over a large aheet of white
paper on cloth. Meadows that have
been mowed late in the year, and pas
tures that have been grazed close,
usually do not harbor many bugs and
do not require burning. If there is
an average of 10 to 15 bugs to the
clump, when tom apart over the
white material, then the area from
which the clumps were pulled, should
be burned over. Blue grass pas
tures should never be burned over.
War on Bugs Now.
"The best time to destroy chinch
bugs is from November 1 to December
15. The grass is drier then and will
burn closer to the ground, thus kill
ing a larger per cent by fir< and ex
posing the remainder too severe cli
matic conditions.
"Whenever possible the grass
should be burned with a backfire
against the wind. Such a fire burna

closer, holds the heat longer, and Is
easier lo keep under control. The
method of burning, however, wifi
vary somewhat with the different
areas. The principal requisite in
burning infected grass is to handle
the fire in such a manner as to burn
close to the ground.
"Since fire is always a dangeroys
apent, certain precautions should be
taken. Never attempt to do exten
sive burning alone, but have one or
two men to assist with the work. Al
ways have a barreT of water and
plenty of gunny sacks along; a spade
Is also very useful In fighting a fire.
When burning over large areas it
is advisable to have a team and plow
along. Should the fire get away It
can be stopped by plowing a furrow
some distance ahead. Never attempt
to burn grass, when there is a high
wind.
"The most effective results from
burning will he had when it is car
ried out co-operatively over relatively
large areas. While the individual
will profit somewhat by burning, the
efficiency of this method ot^control
of tl^e chinch bug Increases with the
area. The best results are to be had
when the entire county enters Into
the campaign and a campaign unit
should not be less than a township.”

New Lumber Is Used
in Chicken Houses
\ ' /
Hebron, Neb., Nov. 29.—The lum
ber dealers of Thnver county have
sold more lumber for chicken houses
in the past two years than for any-,
thing else*, and more than 20 new and
remodeled) houses have been built on
the farms of the county as a direct
and indirect result of the accredited
farm flock-project of the agricultural
extension service, Eincoln, which has
been 'pushed during the past two
years by County Extension . Agent
H. C. Christie.
Farmers have learned directly
from being in the project and indi
rectly from their neighbors who have
been in it that good housing of the
farm flock is one of the most im
portant requisites for a paying poul
try flock. The records that have been
kept on the farms of the 35 co-oper
ators for the past two years and
summarized for county-wide distri
bution by the county agent's office,
have proven that the poultry flock
is the most reliable source of income
and profit on the Thayer county
farm. Farmers have come to realfze
that it pays to pay attention to what
was considered a side line.
Fifteen r»f these houses have been
built from new lumber and the oth
ers have some old and some new lum
ber in them. All but three of them
are of the standard Nebraska type
of one Or more units. Quite a num
her of smaller brooder* houses have
alio been built. Mr. Christie says.
Blueprint plans for all these houses
have been furnished from the exten
sion office.

Hastings Boasts Worlds First Radio Relav Station
1
Because the scenery in the vicinity
oI Hastings appealed to an electrical
engineer, Nebraska and Hastings have
been more solidly than ever “put on
I the map.’ The latest move toward
fame for Hastings Is that there Is
r^w located In that plsre the first
rgilio relay station ever to be
er>cted.
•"Last September, T. Conrad, en
gineer with the Westlnghouse Elec
tele company, was sent out into the
Country to find a location for a radio
r$luy station, an unheard of thing at
that time. One man accompanied
Opnrad and they traveled In a social
e*r loaded with various kinds of radio
equipment.
.Several locations were looked over,
b«i were abandoned for as many rea
sons. The car at. last reached Denver,
a'trlal station was set up, but with
in a few days Denver was eliminated
og a posslhle place for the station be
cause of the violent tnhnder storms
sad the fuct that It was a little too
f#r from the home sat Ion In East
Pittsburgh, Pa.
The equipment was loaded on to the
car again and the two men started
•ast. At Hastings the train, to which
they were coupled, stopped for a short
•
I r
I
time. Conrad looked out the window
of the coach and was impressed' with
the view of the landscape.
"This Is the place we are looking
for." he told his assistant.
The assistant agreed with him.and
Ihe car was sidetracked. Then the
real work began. The Idea of a radio
relay station was new atijl had not
been proven. Hut, In spite of the fact
that the expesiments were carried on
for two months, they were so careful
of how things were done that no one
discovered the activities of the two
min, and several others who hail
Joined them after the station was
greeted. None of the citizens of Has'
tings hftd any Idea of what was going
on. It was simply a new radio station
to them.
City Commissioner Watson of Hast
ings was taken Into the confidence
of Ihe men when s permit was
sought for erection of the station, hut
he respected the confidence and told
no one, although he assisted greatly
In the work.
The station marks one of the great
est steps yet made In radio, it prom
ises to revolutionize the entire in
ilustry. With the present arrange
ment a concert given at the West
Inghmieo studio In East Pittsburgh
may he picked up as coming from
> >
Hustings, am] also ns coming from
Pittsburgh.
The Idea Is comparatively simple,
after It has been explained. The sta
tion In the east broadcasts over two
Instruments. One carries a wave
length of over 200 meters; the other
carries a wave length of much higher
frequency, about 1)4 meter*. The fre
quency wave length Is loo low to he
picked up by ordinary receiving sets
and passes over. This explains why
no one “picked Up" the test programs
fropi Must Pittsburgh.
The station at Hastings, KPKX,
has a duplicated receiving and send
ing set with UDKA, Pittsburgh. The
program broadcast on the high fro
quoncy are picked up and rebroad
east on a lower frequency current.
-It Is now planned that with the
success of the Hastings station other
relay points will he established by
the Westlnghouae company. One
will possibly be established In Cali
fornia In the near future so that a
program from KIIKA ran he heard
as clearly there us tn (he city from
which It m Iglnnli s.
Hut whether any more stations age
established or nnt,\HasMng* has the
distinction of being the itrsl city In
the United Hi.lies or In the world to
boast of a radio relay station. *
Kansan Says No

Wheat Surplus
Congressman Declares All Ex
portable Grain to Be Over
seas by January.
By Associated Pres*.
Washington, Nov. 29.—Pursuing his
study of wheat statistics. Representa
tive Little of Kansa's, declared today
that if exports of wheat continue at
the rate they have been going since
harvest time all the exportable wheat
will be overseas by New Year's day.
‘'TJiere is no surplus,” says Mr. Lit
tle. “The figures I have received from
the secretary of agriculture show that
we have used 80.00u.000 bushels as
seed and up to November 12 have ex
ported 77.000.000 bushels. Subtracting
this from our total crop this year of
781.000. 000 bushels we have 624.000,
000 bushels with the farmer. Mr. Wal
lace tells me that the people will eat
537.000. 000 bushels and the stock will
eat 39.000,000 bushels, a total of 576,
000,000 bushels. This leaves us 48,
000,000 bushels on the farms. If we
export as since harvest this will all
be overseas before New Year's day.
“The department tells me that Rus
sia produced no more wheat this year
than It did last year, when we fed
them lest they starve. They will not
cut an acre of wheat below the equa
tor for week.4 and nobody knows any
thing about the Argentine product.
It Is true Canada produced a large
crop, but about half of It is un
threshed and most of that Is un
stacked In the field where It will un
dergo November snows and Canada
will not export as much wheat as It
did last year.
“If the figures furnished by the de
partment are correct, there Is not a
surplus bushel of wheat In the United
State* nor anywhere else this side of
the planet Mars.
