APPLE ROOT LOUISE.

Frequent inquiries have come to
the University this spring about a
whitish woolly substance found on
the roots, and sometimes in the
bark crevices Of apple trees This
is the wOOlly aphis or apple root
louise and it is liable to become a
serious. pest in apple orchards, es-
pecially where the trees are not
making a vigorous growth.
Being a sucking insect it is not
affected by arsenical poisoning, and
as it passes part of its life below
the surface of the soil it is difficult
to overcome. The aerial form does
not do much damage, but below
ground it causes swellings of the
root, the injury resulting being
similar to that caused by phyllox-
era in grapes.
Hot water, at nearly the boiling
point, applied round the collar of
the tree after removing the surface
soil, is an inexpensive remedy.
Enough must be used to soak into
the soil for a depth of a foot tobacco
dust, from two to five pound per
tree, scattered over the main roots
after removing the surface of the
soil, is reported remedy, and is
also a preventive, while being q
good fertilizer. Tobacco dust can
be bought at 500 per ton of the
largeu factories, The division Of
entomology has issued valuable
circular on this insect.

Latest advices from New York anent the copper situation are to the effect that "Cssey's at the bat, trying to bear the copper market Casey has q grievance, having been fired from the employ of the Lewissohns, and to get even, wants to "bust' the United Met als Selling company and Amalgamated. Casey will find it difficult to get onto the trusts curves.
Arizona silver belt., 1901-12-05

The copper market is still in very unsettled condition and the many con- flieting rumors ahoat do not tend to help the situation. Last Saturday the bear movement against Amalgamated was resumed and the stock sold down to 724, new low level, but it has since recovered several points. The price of copper Is reasonably well main tained, although it is asserted that the trust has shaded the price to large con sumers in order to unload a portion of it's surplus stock There was an m confirmed report from Boston that all the large producers of copper, includ- ing the Anal gamsted, Phelps, Dodge S Co, Calumet and Hecla, Quincy and the w. A. Clark interests, had reached an understanding in accordance with which the price of copper would not be materially shaded for the next sixty days by any of these interests.

Washington advices to the Tucson Citizen indicate that the name of Isaac T. Stoddsrd will not be sent to the senate for confirmation as secretary of the Territory of Arizona, and that 1t is generally understood that Major James H. McClintock will be named as his successor. The report has at least the color of truth, as charges were preferred against Stoddard, that he had violated the franking law by using his official frank for promoting his pri- vate business. and it is well known that Mrjor McClintock stands high in the presidents favor, having served with distinguished galantry in Roose- velt's Rough Rider regiment. Major McClintock is in Washington upon the invitation of the president, and it may be assumed that the visit to the nation al capitol at this time is in connection with federal appointments in Arizona No more popular selection than that of Major McClintock could be made to fill any position in Arizona, in the gift of the president.

THE PRESIDENTS MESSAGE.

President Rooseveltsss tiist message to congress is very lepgthy and com. prehensve, treating of all subjects of importance in national af- airs. As was naturally to be expect ed many questions of greatest concern are viewed by the president from the republican standpoint, and his treat ment of them influenced by political exegency. It IS evident from his tenn. porizing treatment of the trust and re- ciprocity questions that commercial menopolies and the highly protected interests have nothing to fear from the administration.
 The portions of the measage of great est interest to the people of the west are those treating of Chinese exclusion and reclamation of the arid lands. On the Chinese question the president says ''l regard 1t as necessary with this end in view the continued vel fare of the wage-worker ito re-en- act immediately the law excluding Chi nese laborers, and to strengthen it wherever necessary in order to make it's enfor9meut entirely effective. "
 M(Qb space is given in the message to thespreservation of forests and the conservation of the waters of the arid region, and the president strongly recommends the construction of stor- age reservoirs and the creation aud the maintenance of comprehensive system of irrigation by the national government Ut Is as right he says, for the national government to make the streams and rivers of the arid re- gions useful by engineering works for water storage as to make useful the rivers and hsrbors of the humid region by engineering works of another kind. ut ttCihilutlOu aud scillSlhOui bl the arid lands will enrich every DOT ton of our country, just as the settle. meut of the Ohio and Mississippi val leys brought prosperity to the Allan | tic states. The increased demand for manufactured articles will stimulate industrial production, while wider | home markets and the trade of Asia will consume th5 larger food supplies and eaectually prevent western com | petition with eastern agriculture. In deed, the products of irrigation will be consumed chiefly iu upbuilding local centers of mining and other in | dustIies, which would otherwise not come into existence at all. Our peo- pie as whole will profit, for success ful home making is but another name for the upbuilding of the nation
 The people of the great west are not disposed to be captious, and they will receive the presidents assur ances of friendliness to western interests with very great satisfaction.
