Killed the Scale.

Chas. Chavat, OF Butte County, has
found way OF Kidding his orange trees
OF the brown scale in novel manner. He
mixed water and sugar together, and
with the mixture washed the trunk and
lower limbs of the tree He then sprin-
killed. some of the sugar about the roots
OF the tree. On the following day the
orange tree was alive with ants climbing
the trunk and running among the limbs,
and before they quilted it the brown
scales had been devoured, leaving the
tree as clean as q newly laundered hand
kerchief His success has led him to ex-
pertinent successfully with other trees,
and the idea may be of service to other
Orchardists.-Th Californian.
That's all right about getting rid of the
scale, perhaps, but will Mr.. Chavat tell
us what he did with the ants after they
had eaten the scale?.

fertilizer for pineapples.
