better way is to begin to plant few
trees, then another year plant more,
and keep this up and you will soon be

Borax for White Fly.
New York, Sept. 16, 1906.

To The Packer: have been recent
ly informed that the white fly causes
about million dollars worth of dam
age to the orange trees in Florida
every year.
If such is the case it would certain
ly behoove the growers to experiment
with any substance that would not
damage the fruit or trees to ascertain
if they could not prevent such a great
loss.
The thought struck me that a solu-
ton Of borax sprinkled on the trees
might possibly prevent the propaga-
ton of the white fly.
[ know that borax is used very eX-
tensively on hams to prevent the fly
from depositing it's germ. The crevic-
es on the flesh side of the ham are
filled with boraX which absolutely
prevents the propagation of fly germs.
Whether or not it would act in the
same manner on the trees l do not
know, but if L were an orange grower
/ certainly would experiment with it,
Borax could be purchased in small
lots no doubt for a few cents per
pound. Two-thirds of a pound makes
saturated solution of a gallon Of
water If the water is slightly warm
it will hold more boraX in solution,
consequently it would not be very ex-
pensive to spray a few trees with a
solution and note the results.
There is nothing injurious about
borax, consequently if it did not ac-
complish the results desired the trees
would be uninjured and the cost of
the experiment very small. :,
/ have been Informed that your
publication is extensively perused by
all the orange growers, consequently
/ take pleasure in sending this COM
munication to you, sincerely trusting
that it contains ideas that will be of
value to your numerous subscribers.

Migratory Habits Of White Fly.

Migratory Habits OF White Fly.
Editor Florida AgricultuYist:
Considerable interest has been
aroused by discussion of the White
Fly problem The White Fly, Aley-
rodes citri. is an insect that has
probably been introduced in Florida
some twenty-five or more years ago.
J ring it's early history, the insect
was most abundant in the region
about Gainesville and southwark
reaching through Ocala, Citra and
other places in central Florida. The
citrus trees are the principal food
native plants of Florida, as a rule,
prove distasteful to the insect. AS it
multiplies with very great rapidity
and has so few enemies outside of the
fungi, and the later not very general
ly distributed, the insect frequently
occurs in overwhelming abundance.
The principal times of flight are in
the early morning and in the early
evening, especially about sundown.
In the present year while the August
brood was flying, the insects were
SO abundant at Lake City that ladies
and children were practically driven
off of the streets during this portion
of the day.
By making careful observation upon
various food plants and the intensity
of infection, is was discovered that the
swarming of the white fly was practi-
cally limited to the locations where
the insect occurred in such abundance
that the host plant had been practi-
cally exhausted and prevented from
producing additional growth The
females are instinctively attracted to
the new growth of the host plant be-
fore depositing their eggs.
By visiting several places in the
State during the time Of the August
brood, it was discovered that the con-
ditions were quite uniformly the same.
Whenever the insect becomes so abun-
dant as to cut off prospects of food
supplies for the future generations,
the mature insect appears to- instinct
lively fly very high and in great
numbers. During these high fights
it is a very simple matter for the
winds to blow the insect for a very
considerable distance.
These observations have a very i'm
portant bearing upon the question of
controlling the white fly. Wherever
the number of white flies can be kept
sufficiently reduced by natural or arti-
fetal means it will prevent them from
swarming and thus greatly reduce
their migration. Chinaberry, Umbrel-

Sod Orchards In Ohio.
Orlando, Fla.

Last week we copied, from the
Rural New Yorker, am article on the
Mulch Method of Growing Trees. It
contained clear proof that mulching is
much better way to grow trees than
clean or crop cultivation. This week
we found, in Farm and Ranch, some
extracts from the Ohio Experiment
Station bulletin on this subject. 1t is
such good evidence on the side of sod
culture that we copy it:
Bulletin III of the Ohio Station, on
"'Orchard Culture" contains the most
extended report of Investigations on
orchard mana cement we have seen.
The authors, Profs. Green and Ballou,
take the broadest possible view of the
subject and one too, rarely noted.
'sThe deep study of the principles of
economic soil culture cannot but i'm
press the practical student that con-
servatism is the basis or true prog
ress," say the writer's; and then add
this important truth:
abundant yields of fruit are, of
course, to be earnestly desired and
persistently striven for, but the care
full culturist is becoming more and
more insistent that the culture plan
adopted in bringing about a fruitful
record shall be such as will not only
maintain, but increase and improve
the fertility and physical character of
the soil upon which such crops are
grown" And they might well have
added-While at the same time sup
plying conditions favorable to long
life of the trees, and their highest
powers of production.
In 1900 a block of 160 apple trees
were planted and given the following
styles of treatment: O Cover crop;
(2) clean culture; (9 sod culture;
"a sod mulch We can only briefly
review the history of these trials at
this time.
They state that ''after four sea-
sons trial, continuous clean cultiva-
tion. was abandoned as practice not
