Abstract/Contents:Discusses methods to potentially control worm infestation, indicating the methods employed at the Woodlands Manor Golf Club in Kent, United Kingdom. Details the watering system designed, adding that it "saves a great deal of labour [labor]." Explains that lead arsenate has been used and suggests that "2 ozs. [ounces] per square yard gives best results." Proposes that "de-worming with lead arsenate...gives lasting results," adding that while "lead arsenate proves more costly then Mowrah Meal...the former method enables...[treatment of] two to three acres a day as against one acre with Mowrah Meal."
