CABBAGE PESTS.

Combating Them with ROsin--Lime
Mixture Applied by Hand Power.
The cabbage worm and the cabbage
looper, sometimes COMPOUNDED with the
former, are two most destructive pests
Plants Of the cabbage family are diff.
cult to treat with insecticides because
of the crowding together of their leaves
and the smoothness of the surfaces. 1t
is necessary in working against the
worms named to select an insecticide
that will "stay where it is put" and
carry sufficient poison to kill the loop
ers, even though they eat but small
quantity. Every spot of surface must be
protected, and the treatment repeated
at least once.

tion has found what it pronounces an

NEW PAVEMENT.
How it is Made and Where the Asp
halt Comes From.

MATT Soihco Etohh'
When the new asphalt pavement is
completed more handsome streets
cannot be found this side Of the celes-
tial city thanOwosso's business streets.
The work is not being sighted in
any particular, and when defect is
discovered the paving company cheer
fully remedies the defect at once. 1t
was thought before the streets were
prepared that the driveway would he
too narrow, but no such complaint is
heard now.
BY the time the Reporter reaches Its
readers this week the pavement will
be completed on Exchange street and
on Washington street from Exchange
to Mason.
At this time 1t may be interesting
to some of our readers to know where
the asphalt comes from and what pro-
cesses it passes through in combina-
tion with other materials before 1t
can be used to do the service required
of it.
Asphalt is described as bitumin-
ious substance of solid cOnsistence,
often called mineral pitch. 1t proba-
bly, owes it's origin to vegetable mat
ter which has been subjected to slow
process Of decomposition or decay, re-
sulting in the production Of btu
minous coal, from which by volcanic
agency the asphalt has been distilled
and diffused over the neighboring dis
trct. The largest natural deposit of
asphalt is in the island of Trinidad,
where the plain known as the pitch
lake is found. This is the kind used
in Owosso. The asphalt from Trim
dad is largely used for ships bottoms,
1t is also found on the shores of the
Dead Sea in large quantities and Is
known to the Arabs by the name of
Moses stone. 1t likewise is found In
South America, Scotland and Eng
land. Trinidad is an island belong
ing to Great Britain and the most
of the West India islands
The asphalt is brought to New York
in the raw state, where it is melted
and purified and run into barrels. AS
soon as it cools it becomes solid and
can be shipped anywhere.
The works in Owosso are located on
the south river bank east of Washing
ton street, and are kept running night
and day. There are the heating
drums, mixers, watts and crushers.
The crushed stone for the binder is
elevated into'the four drums by means
Of hoppers where it lis heated to a tenn
perature of $40 degrees. Gravity |
forces the heated stone down the in
clined boilers and into the mill. Here |
a travelling dump-box conveys it to |
The mixer. Near it is situated the |
asphalt tanks, steaming with its black
luid. A carrier which weighs every
pound Of the fluid transports 1T to the
mixing box where it is thoroughly
,hurned. Wagons drive beneath the
box and receive their load Of steam
ng mixture, driving at once to the
streets to be paved where it is spread
IN a five inch concrete foundation
With rakes and rolled with steam
roller weighing six tons.
The top dressing is composed of
asphalt, sand and carbonate of lime.
1t is spread, rolled with hand roller
Ind then with the steam roller, using
lot hand smoothers to finish.
The work is interesting and acrowd
If interested spectators is always
present on the street to witness the
operation.
