"SALT-MARSH
CATERPILLAR
College Station. — Severe
damage to cotton and other
growing crops may result
from scattered outbreaks of
“salt-marsh” caterpillars, says
James A. Deer, assistant ex-
tension entomologist of Tex-
as A. & M. College. These
insects overwinter as larvae
and pupae, in protected places
such as fence rows and other
uncultivated strips of land.
Soon after leaving their win-
ter quarters, the worms mi-
grate into cultivated crops
and proceed to riddle the
plants. ,
The “salt-marsh” caterpil-
lar is also known as the “wool-
ly-bear” or “woolly worm.” It
is a very hairy, yellowish and
brown caterpillar which is up
to two inches in length. When
migrating, the worms appear
to move over the ground in
great haste.

College Station.—In a nut-
shell, there isn’t much good
news ahead for the Texas
peanut grower, as far as the
supply is concerned. That’s
the way Texas A. & M. Col-
lege extension specialists in
agronomy, and agricultural ec-
onomics see it.
It just isn’t favorable at all
from the producer’s stand-
point. And here’s why. The
1948 bumper crop gave the
peanut people more goobers
than they can market, other
than for eating.
Large supplies of oil crops
are on hand, and the world ex-
ports of fats and oils are in-
creasing, say these specialists.
On the demand side, there
are some favorable points,
however. The level of em-
ployment in the nation and the
consumer income is high. Eight
along with that the nation’s
population is increasing two
million persons a year. This
year’s support price of peanuts!
is 90 percent of parity, and'
world need for fats and oils is 1
more than the supply can
keep up with.
The rest of the picture;
doesn’t look as good. Funds of
savings are declining-and the
