THE SAN JOSE SCALE.
How 1t May Be Recognized and the
Proper Treatment to Be Used.

The experimental station of Purdue Uni
versity, Lafayette. has issued the appended
bulletin, prepared by Professor James
Troop, horticulturist of the station:
The San Jose SCALE about which so much
has been said of late, is pre-eminently
fruit insect as it feeds upon all kinds of
fruit trees, and as such it is more to be
feared than any other fruit pest yet intro
duced. 1t has only been about eleven years
since it was brought from California on
nursery stock to New Jersey, and yet with
in that time it has spread to more than
twenty different States. 1t has probably
about 1880. l have been unable to find it on
trees which were planted previous to that
time. My attention was first called to it
last winter by MIR. j. L. Reyman, of Salem,
Washington county, who sent me some in
tested plum branches. This tree was dug
up and destroyed, but on visiting his place
last June, L found that it had spread to
adjoining trees. Since that time have
fund it near Borden, Bartle and Henry
county; Indianapolis, Marion county; and
Peru, Miami county. In many places the
orchards were found to be very badly in
tested; some have already been cut down
and burned and others Will doubtless soon
follow, causing much disappointment and
loss to the owners.
will pass it by unnoticed on account of it's
very small size. The female scale is only
about 1-25th of an inch in diameter, while
the male is only about half that size. Inc
shape of the female is nearly circular, while
the male is more elongated. The female is
sharply convex or conical in the center.
This last character will help to distinguish
it from many of the other more common
Species Its color is nearly like the bark
on which it is found. Another distinguish
ing character is found in the reddish dis
coloration of the bark Immediately sur
rounding the scale extending through both
the outer and inner bark. These characters
will enable one with an ordinary pocket
magnifying glass to readily detect the pres
ence of the insect.
There are two prime f2l remedies which
are in use. %. The hydrocyanic acid gas
remedy. ~. Spraying with certain solu-
in use to any great extent except in Cali
fornia, and in fumigating nursery stock:
The most practical remedy in the orchard
is spraying the trees with a strong solution
of whale oil soap 1.-TWO pounds dissolved in
one gallon of water), or with strong kero-
sene emulsion, or even pure Kerosene oil
when the leaves are off. The spraying
should be done at two or three different
times during the year Quite recently Pro-
lessor Rolls, of the Florida experiment sta
ton, has discovered a fungous disease, SINH
lar to the chinch bug disease, working on
this scale in Florida 1t may be that this
is natures remedy; if so, 1T will doubtless
come to our relief in time.
Should any person suspect the occurrence
of this pest on trees in his neighborhood,
the station would appreciate receiving sam

Reasons
To the Editor of the Indianapolis Journal
l mean the election of the corporations
boss Thomas Taggart:
First--All the big corporations in the city
were for him.
Second-All the white niggers and good
" number of the black niggers We're for
him.
Third-All the male people who wanted
an open town were for him.
Fourth-The Tammany Democrats or In
dianapolis were on his side.
Fifth-The gamblers and the loose people
wanted him elected.
SiXth-The goody goody, independent Re
publicans showed their independence by
voting for him.
seventh-The mugwumps to a man, with
their great advocate; the indianapolis
News, worked for his election.
Eighth-The civil-service people wanted
to hold their Jobs and they followed flowed their
and cast their votes for him.
Ninth-Nine out of ten saloon Keepers
threw their influence for him.
Tenth-Three daily papers in this city
were anxious for him to get the loaves and
fishes for two years more.
Eleventh-Every man who wanted drink
on Sunday shouted for Taggart.
Twelfth-The lottery and policy workers
7-11-44-did what they could
Thirteenth-EVery man who was par
doned out of the worlxnouse by Judge Cox
voted for him; they made that contract be-
fore they were released.
Fourteen th-EVery cOWardly, Sneaking
Republican who on election day skipped
the town, professedly on urgent business,
or who remained at home told his neigh
Dor TO go and vote for Taggart and who
said that they were built that way. but
lacked the courage and sand to carry it
out.
Fifteehfh-Every Republican who could
be bought by syndicate jobs, beer money
or influence went TO the polls and voted for
Taggart.
That is what thwarted the will of the peo-
pie and elected 4. Taggart. Don't you
think for a minute that we will not play
