NEW ENGLAND GARDENERS 



WARNED OF DANGEROUS 



NEW INSECT. 



The V'nited States Department ot 

 Agriculture has issued an appeal to 

 gartleners in the New England States 

 to clean up their plots and burn all 

 the dead vegetation as soon as possi- 

 ble after killing frost this fnll. De- 

 struction by fire of infested stock, 

 stubble, garden plants, and weeds aft- 

 er killing frost is the only known 

 metliod ot comliating the European 

 corn borer, a dangerous insect pest of 

 corn new to this country, and which 

 has been found living in the corn 

 fields of eastern Massachusetts. If 

 strenuous methods are not made to 

 check this insect, aeco.dlng to the Bu 

 reau of Entomology of the depart- 

 ment, it will spread to the great field 

 rorn producing regions of the country, 

 io incalculable injury to the corn crop, 

 and materially reduce the prosperity 

 as well as the food stocks of the na- 

 tion. 



The pest is not definitely known to 

 occur outside of Massachusetts, but it 

 is possible that it may be present in 

 other New England States. The insect 

 came from Europe and is especially 

 injurious to corn in Austria-Hungary, 

 where it has been known to destroy 

 at least one-fourth of the entire crop 

 in a single year. During the cold 

 months it lives within the dead and 

 dried stalks and roots of corn, the 

 larger grasses, weeds, and garden 

 plants. Therefore, the ease of destroy- 

 ing it at this time by burning garden 

 trash of the kind mentioned. 



Discovery of the insect should be re- 

 ported immediately to the State agri- 

 cultural college or to the Bureau ot 

 Entomology. United States Depart- 

 ment of Agriculture, Washington, D.
