make much difference; this government
could use the cable if it desired and in

war between the United States and
Great Britain the government would
find itself seriously handicapped if the

SPRAYING AGAINST INSECT AND
FUNGUS PESTS.

There seems to be an impression some
what common abroad that the laws and
regulations regarding insect pests injuri-
Gus TO the fruit interests Of the state have
been abrogated. or that they are not now
In force because of certain changes made
In the statute by our last legislature. This.
however. Is mistake. No change was
made In the general law governing these
regulations. Any owner of an orchard or
fruit trees infested with noxious insects
may be compelled by information or COM
plant before Justice of the peace to
abate such nuisance ard upon failure so
10 do subjects himself 10 a fine of So or
more. And any dealer In fruits handling
or Offering for sale any fruit so infested
subjects himself to tho same penalty. The
presence of the worst of these pests be-
comes the most widespread by reason Of
their dissemination through the shipments
OF fruit from districts often thousands of
miles distant, and the greatest damage
often results from the carelessness and
sometimes the defiance of the law on the
part OF many dealers In this resnect And
as strict compliance with the law works
no hardship with the dealer as he simply
requires TO refrain from the sale of such
infested sruit. there Is but small excuse
on his part for noncompliance Herewith
1t is somewhat different, however, with
the orchard owner. Continued careful
watchfuiness and more or less EXPENSE
Is needed on his part to ensure that his
fruit trees are kept comparatively free
from such insect depredations. Yet self
interest. in large measure should cause
those having fruit trees TO annually spray
them or by other means prevent the in
crease and spread OF these pests who are
the robbers and destroyers OF any profit
able fruit production. Many think that
they cannot afford the expense of spray
ing their trees But really. If they make
the slightest calculation. they will find
that they cannot afford not to do SO I'm
most cases. Now that "a very good prac-
ucable hand spray pump can DO pur-
chased for $3.50. and very effective spray
solutions cost but few cents per tree
sprayed. and that time is often a waste
product largely with many. IL can easily
be shown that the fruit trees under ones
care will pay very largely for such treat
dangerous pests with which they are so
often infested.
Just at the present time the green APP
his or louise infesting the apple trees are
Matching out. and cnn very easily be &C.
stroyed by any simple summer solution.
The young OF the woody aphis. and OF
the different scale insects where these
prevail. can also be the most easily reach
ed and killed now by these sprays. The
different formulas for them. and also how
10 prevent damage from fungous diseases.
are generally well known. Printed cir
cuiars containing them will be sent on APP
plication by postal card or letter TO the
subscriber. j. f. CASS. Secretary State
