With knowledge as to where the

the cutworm better. Toward the end
of June and early in July they will

coming out of the clover patch toward

Dig trench along the side OF the
garden or field toward which the
worms are travelling, having the trench
about eight inches deep and the per-
pendicular side made by the back OF
the spade toward the field. The worms
will travel into this and find it impos-
sible to crawl up the perpendicular
side. At intervals of three or four
feet in the trench dig holes several
inches deeper and in little while
these will be filled with squirming
worms to the depth of several inches.
When they find they cannot scale the

however, is not the only one of it's
class to propagate these worms, for
the moth also breeds them, and the
aim should be to destroy the moth and
white butterfly by every feasible means.
The cutworm is often called the
notched larvae, owing to its peculiar
shape. The cutworm we had in 1900
was the larvae of the moth, known to
entomologists as "peridoma saucia." !"
The worm has appeared in different
sections of the country in large num-
bers at different times, California suf-
fering severely in 1898 and 1895.
There is a wide range Of food plants
which the worm will attack. Almost
all sorts of garden and field crops are
it's victims, also many varieties of
weeds, such as purslane, dock, pigweed,
ETC., and the fruit trees and naples
and elms come in for share of its
destructive tactics. There are few
enemies, as a general thing, to make
war upon the worms, and the eggs

finely perforated or covered with fine

tribute the poison as desired. 1t is
better to dust early in the morning or
late in the evening, while the leaves
are wet with dew, in order that the
mixture may adhere more readily to
the plant. The wet mixture is used
for all plants other than the cabbage,
and is preferable to the dry method.
The poison is applied as spray, using
one pound of paris green to $50 to 200
gallons of water for the harder plants.
For peach and plum trees and plants
with delicate foliage the water should
constitute 250 to 800 gallons of water
for one pound of poison. A pailful or
two of fresh lime water should be add
ed to every 200 gallons of the mixture
to prevent the poison from scalding the
foliage.
Gathering the worms by hand and
destroying them is a good method and

year is the fact that 1904 is the fourth
year since the attack in great numbers
by the worm was inflicted upon the
ranchers. These worms come only
once in two years to any great extent.
Our prediction seems likely to come
true to an extent, for reports have
been received that in the vicinity of
Tacoma the ranchers have suddenly
discovered a large number of cut
worms-more, in fact, than have ever
visited that section at one time since
the scourge of 1900. In view of these
things it is not out of place to give
something bearing on the life history
of the cutworm and methods OF COM
batting his attacks. Four years ago
the worms came in unprecedented num-
bers, and the whole country was over
run in a night, as it were. The ranch
ers were entirely unprepared to fight
them; they had never studied their
habits and did not know what was
best to do to ward off their attacks.

tention was called to the probabil-
Il ity that the cutworm, also known
as the army worm and caterpillar,
would appear this season. The suppo-
sition was based on the fact that this
spring there have been seen some
white butterflies, which lay the eggs
from which the cutworms come. 1t
had also been noticed that in one part
of the city there were a few worms
present rather early in the season,
but this may have been due to the un-
usually warm spring that we have
had. Another thing that makes it
probable the cutworm will be here this

LOOK OUT FOR THE CUTWORM

The best indication that cutworms
will be present to damage the crop in
any one season is the presence of the
common white butterfly. When this
moth is very numerous in the spring
and early summer it can be set down
as fact that worms will be found in
large numbers by the Goth of June
or a trifle later The butterfly visits
the garden vegetables and the clover
patch, depositing it's eggs, and in a
few days the larvae develops into a
worm, which feeds on the leaves of
the plants, changes into a cocoon and
finally into butterfly, to be seen late
in the summer. The white butterfly,

able conditions. The moths, like the
horse-fy and mosquito, seek every
available place of protection from the
winters storms, and in the spring,
when the weather moderates sufficient
ly, they go in search of plants fur
nishing suitable food, to deposit their
eggs and thus provide an early brood
of worms. The favorite Matching place
of the worms seems to be the clover
field, and the reason for this is not
far to seek. At the time the white
butterfly is depositing its eggs the
clover patch is throwing out its BIOS
SONS, and in the absence of blossoms
on most other plants at that time the
clover gets the bulk of the eggs. This
was the case in 1900, and conditions
this year are not much different,

where it is simple matter to kill them
in variety of ways.
To make doubly sure that your crops
do not suffer, spraying with paris
green should be resorted to, using
either the wet or dry method. When
applied dry the poison should be thor
oughly mixed with lime or flour, one
part of the poison to twenty parts of
flour or lime, or if the mixture is to
be applied to vegetables which are soon
to be used for food, the application
should not be made stronger than one
part of the poison to one hundred
parts of the lime or flour. Various

is an exceedingly gratifying one,

Increase in favor of this year,

II Is fair to assume that if a land
assessment had been made this
year, the increase in the value of
realty would have been equally
large, making total increase in
taxable values for the last 10
months almost one million dol

ming he has made ia the discharge
of his official duties one that is
an earnest of what the people may
expect Of him in the future.
There may be some difference Of
opinion as to whether the large
increase just referred TO is due to
an actual increase Of nearly half
million dollars in taxable values
during the last 10 months, or to

be any dispute about Mr.. Max
