NOT FOR PUBLICATION; Special Note to Seed Corn Producers 



Several of you have expressed interest in corn earworm control. In the area 

 south of Highway 6, moth flight and egg -laying are heavier than normal. The result 

 could he substantial losses in fields of seed corn by harvest time. 



If you are interested in seeing earworm eggs and hearing a discussion of 

 earworm habits and control, you are invited to attend an informal, brief field meeting 

 at the Libby, McNeill and Libby Plant in Morton, Illinois, on Tuesday, August 18. The 

 meeting will start promptly at 10:00 a.m. at the field office on North Morton Street 

 across from the main plant office. A short trip to the field will follow, with time 

 for questions. Farm advisers also are welcome. I will see you there.
