Blue Grasses In Oklahoma.

A communication from the Oklaho-
ma Agriculture College says: Con-
siderable inquiry has been received at
the experiment station at saltwater
this spring in regard to a native grass
that seems to be gaining foothold in
the territory. There are two forms
of it. One is called the Texas blue
grass and the other the Smooth Texas
bluegrass. They are much like the
Kentucky bluegrass and are very
closely related botanically They are
a little coarscr than the Kentucky but
in form of head closely resemble it.
The Texas bluegrass has growth
like short wool in the head among
the grains while the Smooth Texas
blue-gr does not have it, The taste
is much like that of Kentucky blue
grass. 1t seems to be relished by all
sorts of grass-eatins, animals. 1t ap-
pears first in bunch or two here
and there but soon spreads so as to
cover considerable area. It may be
propaeated either by seeds or parts OF
the plant, but seems to be spreading
without special attention. 1t promises
to be one Of the best pasture grasses
for Oklahoma.

Or more will be found on single pod
Ibe larVa soon matches out, drills
through the pod and works its way in
pod soon grows up, and there is then
nothing to indicate the presence of the
inhabitants within The color of the
larva is deep yellow with shiny
black head. There are often many
more larvae on the pod than there are
peas within, but there is only one to
berry. The rest perish. The larva
continues to feed on the albuminous
part OF the pea, but rarely touches the
iife-germ, SO that the vitality of the
berry is not destroyed. On reaching
maturity it eats round hole to the
outside of the pea, leaving only the
thin hull to enclose it, and then passes
into the pupa state. 1t usually remains
In this condition until the following
weevil The weevil is of a rusty black
color, with several gray spots and
bands on its back and wing covers.
In the selection of seed for planting,
care should be taken to get that which
is entirely free from the weevil. This
can be done by keeping the seed till it
is two years old. Also by putting the
peas into water, when the sound ones
will sink and the wormy ones float.
The weevils can be, for the greater
part, destroyed by soaking the peas in
boiling water for few minutes just
before planting them.

American Fruits in Europ>.

Professor John b. Smith. state en-
tomologfst of New Jersey, has just
returned from abroad, where he went
to investigate the restrictions against
American fruits. Professor Smith also
Investigated the methods OF handling
insects in European countries.
With regard to the fruits Professor
smith ascertained that it would be
practically impossible for American
fruits to be shipped into France ex-
cept by treaty arrangement. French
officials have an idea that all Ameri-
can fruits are tabooed. If the fruit is
forced through there is so much red
tape about 1t that the fruit spoils be-
fore it reaches the hands of the Gus
toner.
Efforts to exclude American fruits
nave been abandoned in Holland, the
professor found, but in Belgium very
Few American fruits are received. Of
nciais in Germany. he said, seemed to
De fair-minded and disposed to treat
shipments more considerably, He
FOUND that at Hamburg, while there,
A consignment of 10000 barrels of ap-
pies was received.
PROFESSOR Smith believes that If
American fruit shippers will treat
Iheir customers fairly there will be
no trouble about the safe of American
fruits in foreign countries. Everything
Is sold at auction and never by surface
snow. One barrel in every ten is
emptied out upon the floor and the sale
IS made upon the condition of the fruit
thus displayed. The man who puts a
lot OF poor fruit at the bottom of the
barrels stands a poor show. Professor
smith was agreeably surprised to find
the American fruit exhibit at Paris
surpassed those of other countries. Re
also found that the French commission
merchants were greatly interested in
these fruits, and it is his opinion that
next year there will be a noticeable
increase in the demand for Jersey
fruits.
