Army worm invades farms in southeast South Dakota
Pioneer farmers in Union and Lincoln counties report the first appearance of army worms in southeastern South Dakota in thirty years. They attacked oat fields then moved into corn and rye with several fields sustaining damage. Farmers used plowing and burning methods to curb the infestation as warm weather slowed the worms. The pest, traveling in armies, is checked by hot weather and protective furrows on the field margins.
