Mr Wicka reports a worm pest in fields treated with summer fallow and flax sowing. Exposure to sun killed the worm and moisture conservation aided infestation as dry conditions return. Farmers statewide note similar trouble and seek eradication methods. I thank the Golden Valley community for funeral support and floral tributes after my wife’s death. Mrs Armentrot of Yates had surgery in Belfield for an access and is recovering nicely.
