It has cost Corn Belt far- mers untold millions in lost crops and reduced corn yields. The three species of rootworm (Southern, North- ern and Western) feed on corn roots, denying the plant moisture and nutrients. The adult beetles eat the silks, interfering with pollination. Since 1961, the Western rootwarm has inereased rap- idly; its resistance to insecti- cides began to show up as early as 1959 in Nebraska. Where aldrin or heptachlor have been used in continuous corn for seven or more years the rootworm is developing resistance. An article in the current issue of the Farm Quarterly details the rootworm men- ace and the various ways of eombating it. The article points out that fields which had no root damage last L year, but were infested with adult Western corm roet- worm beetles, may be infest- ed with resistant rootworm this year, especially if some ‘resistance populations were reported in the area. According to the Farm Quarterly article, amy prac- tice which promotes good root systems such as proper fertilization and thorough seedbed preparation will pro- vide some defense against all rootworms. Farmers are urged to plant as early as possible so roots will get a head start on the rootworms. Earlier silking also prevents heavy adult beetle damage. Hilling up corn plants gives brace roots better anchorage. Sidedressing with about 60 PAGE THREX e Deaths HAROLD E. KECK The body of Harold Keck, forty-four, 139 E. High St, Maytown, was found washed ashore from the Chesapeake Bay near Stevensville, Md. Friday night, June 18. Keck fell from a boat on June 12, and had been the object of a search since that time. The point where the body came ashore was three miles from where he fell in- to the water. Keck was born County, the son of Charles Keck, Bainbridge R1, and the late Edna Balmer Keck. He was employed as an auto- mobile mechanic at the U. S. Army Depot, New Cumber- land. He was a veteran of World War II, having served in the U.S. Navy. He was a mems- ber of LOOM 597, Elizabeth- town and the Libhart-Dyer Post 197, American Legion, Bainbridge. In addition to his father, he is survived by his wife, Virgie Viola Flowers Keck; a son, Harold E. Keck, and a daughter, both of Maytown. He also is survived by three grandchildren and five brothers and sisters: Elmer, William and Miss Betty P. Keck, all of Bainbridge R1; Frances, wife of Lloyd C. Mapp, and Margaret, wife of Martin Camp, both of Bain- bridge. Services were held Mon- day from the M. Hawthorn Miller funeral home in Bain- bridge and burial was made in the Maytown Union Ceme- tery. — in Perry EMIL A. JOHNSON Emil A.

Crop rotation can help control rootworm. There is evidence that damage is less in corn that follows any oth- er weed-free crop. Root- worms find their most favor ed conditions when corn fol- lows corn. The Farm Quarterly artie- le ends on the optimistic note that a combination of new chemicals and resistant thybrids will keep farmers at least one jump ahead of the jrootworm threat.
