Preparing Grains Storage There is no substitute for good housekeeping on the farm, especially when it cornes to storing grain., With harvest of winter wheat well under way and the harvest of spring grains to start very soon, this is especially im- portant at this time of year. Bins carefully' prepared to receive the new grain could eliminate or greatly Ireduce insect damage in stored grain. The number of calîs we receive each year has been on Be sure to linclude us when having estimates for wiring made. We are ex- perts in our field and can save you money.

The main reason for stored grain insect problemns is untidiness., If grain storage areas are not kept dlean, insects are given a chance to multiply. Without adequate precautions, last year's infested grain or refuse could infest this ýyear's grain. Before bringing in a new cropof grain, farmers should get rid of many old, insect- infested grain. If there are large quantiies left fromn the previous year, it can be ground up and used as livestock feed. It should be pointed out that this grain is useless for seed, since the insects will probabty have chewed out the germ. If there is only a small quantity lef t over, burn it, thus ensuring the destruction of the insects. Bin surfaces should be care- fully and thoroughly swept, taking extra pains with the ceiting, cracks and other crevices. -These sweepings should be burned, otherwise, they are liable to infest the new grain. Feed grinding or grain handling areas should be carefully swept as well because they provide places for grain and insects to hide. Once there, it does not take the insects long to get into the new grain in storage. While the bins are empty and dlean, make those neces- sary repairs. Often the grain leaks into hard to get at places, and this provides ideal conditions for new insect infestations. Two weeks prior to fillîng the bin, you should spray the walls, floor and ceiling with an insecticide. Farmers can use 50 per cent Malathion, using 1 quart of emulsion or 2 1-2 pounds of the wettable powder in 4 gallons of water. Apply 1 gallon of spray per 1,000 square feet of area; this will kill present and future insects. Aerating the grain will reduce insect damage, especially during cold weath- er., It also removes high moisture areas where insects may be M~ore numerous- As an added peecaution, farmers should lower the grain temp- erature to 5 degrees C. to stop, insect activity.

Chinch Bugs Strike Again Now is the time to treat your lawn for Chinch b ugs, espe- cially if you had them last year, and were not able to treat with an insecticide. Damage is likely to be most severe ini the early part of August, when the population of the large nymph and adult chinch bugs is at its peax. Chinch bugs suck the juices fromn the crowns of the grass, drying it out and turning the lawn yellow and brown. In a lot of cases, homeowners think this yellowing or browning of the grass is caused due to moisture conditions, however, many times this is not the case, andespecially thisyear, when we hâve had a gooh deal of moisture,'rnany lawns should rernain green during the month of August. if Chinch bugs are in your lawn, your grass will eventually die, thin out and become bare, giving the weeds an excellent op- portunity to infest your lawn. Chinch bugs are mostly found near hedgerows, trees or flower beds. After a while, they move out from these areas and into the rest of the lawn. Patches can be from a few inches to a large area in size. If you're not sure whether you have Chinch bugs, try the water test on your lawn. Take a large can and make it into a cylinder by removing both the bottom and top. Stick it into the turf, just beyond the edge of brown patches, fi it with' water and stir. Little, brick- red bugs should rise to the top and this will indicate to you the presence of Chinch bugs. There are- 3 insecticides available to control Chinch bugs - Carbaryl in the wet- table powder form, Diazinon, either as liquid concentrate or as a granular and Chlorpy- riphos in the granular form are approved, for control.- I I * DIRK BRINKMAN BCvog,,'Vlle 623-3621 Oelympiad ',v'] T * Expert Repairs and molies; message carriers; Installation and asgisting with cooking and clear,7up chores at the Service Corps campsite.
