In southern Indiana, most farmers wouldn't treat for it at all because there are very few corn rootworm larvae in that part of the state. In the moderate region in northeast and central Indiana, farmers may use soil insecticides or seed treatments for control. In the high pressure northwest corner of Indiana, most farmers use soil insecticides and some use seed treatments.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32133</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Our power is in our ability to decide. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22058]]></link><description><![CDATA[Our power is in our ability to decide.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22058</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Do not mix de galloping of your horse, my knight, with the beating of your heart. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53183]]></link><description><![CDATA[Do not mix de galloping of your horse, my knight, with the beating of your heart.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53183</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We cease loving ourselves if no one loves us. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2151]]></link><description><![CDATA[We cease loving ourselves if no one loves us.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2151</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There are two sorts of affection - the love of a woman you respect, and the love for the woman ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53981]]></link><description><![CDATA[There are two sorts of affection - the love of a woman you respect, and the love for the woman you love]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53981</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It ain't sin if you crack a few laws now and then, just so long as you don't break any. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56407]]></link><description><![CDATA[It ain't sin if you crack a few laws now and then, just so long as you don't break any.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56407</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The follow-on from this is that E.ON is unlikely to re-bid for Scottish Power in the near term. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29363]]></link><description><![CDATA[The follow-on from this is that E.ON is unlikely to re-bid for Scottish Power in the near term.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29363</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA['Twere sweet to sink in death for Truth and Freedom! Yes, who would hesitate, for who could bear  The ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45800]]></link><description><![CDATA['Twere sweet to sink in death for Truth and Freedom! Yes, who would hesitate, for who could bear  The living degradation we may know   If we do dread death for a sacred cause?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45800</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Gay is not one of those writers who vomits on a page, then goes back and rewrites.

We merely prevent its leaking out at a certain point, with the likely result that it will leak out at some other point. Thus by denigrating prevailing beliefs and loyalties, the militant man of words unwittingly creates in the disillusioned masses a hunger for faith. For the majority of people cannot endure the barrenness and futility of their lives unless they have some ardent dedication, or some passionate pursuit in which they can lose themselves. Thus, in spite of himself, the scoffing man of words becomes the precursor of a new faith.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53720</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Discontent is something that follows ambition like a shadow. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12417]]></link><description><![CDATA[Discontent is something that follows ambition like a shadow.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12417</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He who requires much from himself and little from others, will keep himself from being the object of resentment. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53930]]></link><description><![CDATA[He who requires much from himself and little from others, will keep himself from being the object of resentment.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53930</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If the world is cold, make it your business to build fires. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62218]]></link><description><![CDATA[If the world is cold, make it your business to build fires.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62218</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Therefore confess thee freely of thy sin; For to deny each article with oath  Cannot remove nor choke the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9648]]></link><description><![CDATA[Therefore confess thee freely of thy sin; For to deny each article with oath  Cannot remove nor choke the strong conception   That I do groan withal.

There was none of the indeterminate, inconclusive talking which we are apt to describe as "sowing the seed". Our idea of sowing the seed seems to be rather like scattering wheat out of a balloon... Occasionally, of course, grains of wheat scattered out of a balloon will fall upon ploughed and fertile land and will spring up and bear fruit; but it is a casual method of sowing. Paul did not scatter seeds, he planted. He so dealt with his hearers that he brought them speedily and directly to a point of decision, and then he demanded of them that they should make a choice and act on their choice. In this way he kept the moral issue clearly before them, and made them realize that his preaching was not merely a novel and interesting doctrine, but a life. (Continued tomorrow).]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7973</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Business today consists in persuading crowds. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5053]]></link><description><![CDATA[Business today consists in persuading crowds.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5053</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When one door closes, another opens: but we often look so long and soregretfully upon the closed door that we ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21185]]></link><description><![CDATA[When one door closes, another opens: but we often look so long and soregretfully upon the closed door that we do not see the one which hasopened for us.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21185</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I doubt it.
