Farmers Still on Strike.
The local milk league members con-
tinue on strike. The league called a
meeting at Milton, one night last week,
which was attended by several members
of the local league, but it appears noth-
ing definite was accomplished.
It is reported here that Mr. Sheffer
called this meeting, but Mr. Crawford,
who operates the Sheffer plant here, is
authorized to say that this is not the
fact. The DewartiProducts people did
pot call or attend the meeting referred
to.
To date this is all the news on the sub-
ject, except it may be said the Dewart
plant is being operated each day and is
paying the league price for milk less
fifteen cents per hundred weight.

This insect, which yearly
causes a loss of forty million bushels of
wheat in this country, cannot be attack-
ed successfully, It can only be avoided,
Different agencies contributed to the
downfall of the splendid prospects for a
mammoth wheat crop in Pennsylvania
this year and among these the Hessian
fly was a factor. This pest was preva-
lent and damaged the wheat in different
parts of the State and particularly in
Berks and Chester counties,
The Pennsylvania Department of Ag-
riculture suggests that'growers of winter
wheat should take concerted action in
oider to avoid losses to the 1920 crop by
the Hessian fly, There is no remedy for
this pest when once it takes possession
of a crop of wheat, Injury can be pre-
vented solely by keeping the fly out of
the wheat,
Experts of the U, S. Department of
Agriculture says the following methods
effegtive :
Do not sow wheat on stubble if possi-
ble to avoid doing so,
Plow under all
spread,
infested stubble and
ruined wheat where practicable soon
after harvest, especially where this does
not inter fere with the growing of clover
and forage grasses,
Destroy all volunteer wheat by har-
rowing, disking, plowing, or otherwise
Plow all land to be sown to winter
wheat as early and deeply as existing
conditions permit and prepare a thor.
oughly pulverized and compacted seed
bed.
Conserve moisture against a period of
drought at seed ng time.
Uke the best seed procurable.
Keep the soil in good tilth and, mo
important of all, sow winter wheat d
