Frederick College.

On Wednesday morning. May
II, Frederick College, Frederick,
Md, closed its one hundred and
tenth session. The exercises we're
of a modest but substantial nature.

rollment is expected next Sep.

White Man Turned Yellow.

Great CONSERVATION was felt by
the friends of M. A. Hogarty, of
Lexington, KY, when they saw
he was turning yellow. His skin
slowly changed color, also his
eyes, and he suffered terribly.
His malady was Yellow Jaundice.
He was treated by the best doc.
tors, but without benefit. Then
he was advised to try Electric
Bitters, the wonderful Stomach
and Liver remedy, and he writes:
"After taking two bottles l was
wholly cured." A trial proves its
matchless merit for all Stomach,

Orchard Pests.

There are many insects which
we may consider our annual Wis
itors, Accordingly orchardists.
as we'll as those who have a
small number of trees for home
use, should take every precaution
towards protecting the trees and
fruit that remain on after the
recent freezes from insect and
fungi attack.
Apple trees should be sprayed
at this time with Paris green
or other arsenite e lbs. to SO
gallons of water) for protection
against the coddling moth, an
insect that causes the majority
of our wOrmy apples. 1t is wise
to apply the Paris green with
Bordeaux mixture, at the above
proportions, adding Bordeaux for
the water. The Bordeaux mixture
will control various fungus dis
eases.
The apple tree tent caterpillar
seems to be present in enormous
numbers this spring. Since the
insect can easily be detected by
its conspicuous nests or tents,
the whole colony can be torn
| from the. trees in the early morn
ing or evening and destroyed.
A torch may also be employed
to destroy them. Or if they are
out of reach spraying the branches
nearest to the nests with an arsen-
lite will control them.
Injury from the plum curculio
by "stiuging" the fruit will prob
ably be more pronounced this
year owing to the fact that a
large per cent. of the peaches and
plums have already been killed
by frosts in some parts of the
State. The beetles attack both
plum, peach and apple. Spray
ing the tree with Paris green
or other arsenite will have the
effect tf killing some of the
beetles as they feed on the TO-
liage and fruit The earring"
method should also be practiced
when practicable, that is, where
the tree is not too large to jar cas-
lily. 1t consists of placing a large
sheet under the tree and then
jarring the tree suddenly. If
done in the early morning the
beetles will fall into the sheet
and then destroyed. 1t may be
necessary to continue this work
every morning for two weeks or
until they become very scarce.
In controlling the asparagus
beetles which are causing much
trouble at this time, the only
means we may suggest is spraying
with an arsenite, busting air
Stacked lime on the plants to
kill the Larvae, and to let a part
of the asparagus grow up as
trap for the insects. They can
then be treated on the trap as.
paragus more effectively by spray
ing or catching them.
Any further information as to
the above or other insect pests
will be gladly given by commun-
icating with the State Entomol-
, ogist, Thomas B. SymOns, Col.
lege Park, Md.
