Phone 224W With High Yields in Prospect, Be Prepared to Get the Jump on WEBWORMS! Moisture and sunshine are doing their part to give Colorado beet growers the highest yield per acre in years.

Farmers can take advantage of this favorable condition by careful management at each stage of growth. Insect pests can do more damage while the beets are small than later. Watchfulness and preparation are necessary for timely control. At various parts of Colorado webworm millers have appeared. In some districts the number of millers is alarming.

Farmers who have spraying equipment should not wait until the last minute to be sure that the equipment is in working order. Check it over NOW! See what repairs or adjustments may be necessary. Webworms can be controlled by an AGGRESSIVE ATTACK when the worms have just hatched. Delay in fighting worms works to the disadvantage of the crop. Great Western Sugar Company.
