Army Worms At
Work In County
Floyd M. Key, County Agent, re-
ports that the first of this week he
checked fields in Bosque County
for possible fall Army Worms, and
he found them in every field
checked.
Mr. Key says, “If you wish to
control Army Worms, you need to
spray the fields when the worms
are small. The worms I found were
already anywhere from %-inch up
to % -inch long; and if much time
passes, they will be too big and
the damage already done to save

the crops for grazing.”
Continuing, Mr. Key reports that
to control Army Worms, one can
use several insecticides, depending
on the use to be made of the crop.
If one wishes to graze the crops,
the safest insecticide is Sevin (80%
wet table powder) at the rate of iy«
to 1% pounds per acre. There is
no limitations on the length of
time before one can graze after
using Sevin.
Other insecticides that may be
used are DDT, Toxaphene, Toxa-
phene-DDT mixture, or Parathion.
If these insecticides are used, no
dairy animal should be permitted
to graze the field, nor should any
animal to be slaughtered graze in
treated fields within six weeks of
slaughter.
For any further information on
spraying for the control of Army
Worms, contact Mr. Key at the
courthouse or your insecticide
dealer.
