Peach Tree Borers.

In the following communication to
the Western Fruit Grower the writer
gives some facts regarding the peach
tree borer which should be understood
in order to deal most efficiently with
that pest:
The presence of the peach bOrer is
discernible by the emulation Of
glutinous, gummy matter at or near
the crown of the tree. To the orchard
list no introduction is needed to this
enemy. Yet it is no uncommon thing
to meet orchardists who while recog-
nizing the Importance of the pest, and
knowing it's habits, are unfamiliar
with the parent insect. The parent is
a moth, yet is mistaken frequently
for a wasp, which it strongly resem>
bles. In the males this characteristic
is more strongly developed than in
the female. In color the moth is a
deep blue. In the male the wings are
transparent; in the female the hind
wings only. The female is much the
larger when her wings are expanded,
being fully one and one-halw inches
across.
They deposit their eggs in the bark
at a few inches below the surface of
the ground. The egg is very small;
color, yellowish brown. After a short
period of incubation they are Matched
the worm entering the bark of the
tree to the sap wood where it feeds
until fall This is the time that the
greatest damage is usually done, as
not infrequently the tree is entirely
girdled and dies. How to get rid of
them is therefore an important factor.
The remedies are legion-quack
nostrums are abundant-but a little
common sense injected into little
work will give you the greatest salts
faction. Early in April take hoe
and mound the ground about your
trees four to six inches in height. This
will induce the moth to deposit her
eggs high up in the tree. You should
maintain this mound. If the winds
