CONTROL OF CORN EARWORM 
The ears of sweet corn are attacked by young caterpillars 
which feed first on the growing silk and later work down into 
the ear, eating the kernels. Early maturing varieties of plants 
are less subject to injury from the caterpillars. Sweet corn 
may be protected by dusting with a combination of lead 
arsenate and dusting sulphur, using equal parts of the ma¬ 
terials. The dust should be applied as soon as silk forms on 
the developing ears. It may be necessary to make several 
applications, as the ears do not all develop at the same time.
