Different localities will differ in the

on the development Of insect pests.
This county. am glad to say, is the
banner county OF Colorado, 60 Tar as
health growth and freedom from insect
pests are concerned. In fact it is we'll
known already. Strangers from all
parts are coming here to settle; real es-
tate, declining elsewhere. is steadily
growing in value in Delta county.
Will noxious insects and parasitic
fungi be unknown in this county in the
future? It surely depends upon our
selves; where others are fighting to keep
the plague down, and that is about all
they can do. We here in this beautiful
valley ought to do all We can to keep
such visitors out. 1t is in the interest
Of every one, orchardist OF not, it is the
Alpha and Omega OF the sure raise OF

Now il the time OF summer pruning.
and if properly done will keep your trees
in the very best condition. take out be-
low the soil all surplus growth, remsve
all buds. where no branches are wa4tsd,
fill up with wax all sores and bruises
and be sure to examine trunk and foli-
! age in regard to fungus or paraslees.
Use good sharp knife. never a grape
pruner. the later does not cut close

ueighbor.
United efforts will put down all pests
