future OF the national game in Iowa. An
appeal has been taken from Lucas county

FIGHTING PEAcHTREE BoRER
How This Pest of the Orchard May
Be Kept from Doing His De-
structive Work.

One of the best preventiyes to keeL
the moth from laying eggs for the
peach tree bore is to draw away the
earth in the fall down to the crown of
the roots and coat the stem to one foot
above ground with a thick coat of lin.
seed oil and white lead, without any
turpentine at all. But even when this
is done there will be found occasional
borers. Therefore, now is the time tc
look over the orchard, and wherever a
gummy emulation is seen at the base,
of tree the borer is at work and
should be cut out at once and all the
damaged bark and gum removed. Re
peat the examination late in summer
and you can keep the orchard fairly
free from the borers. The next thing
in the bearing peach orchard will be
the fight against the curculio which
cause the fruit to be wormy No
amount of spraying will do much for
this sucker, for he is not eating the
poison. The only way to fight him is
to have broad apparatus like an in
verted umbrella made with a light
frame covered with cotton cloth
slit on one side admits it round the
tree, and then a Earring of the tree
will cause the bitten fruit and the
bugs to fall into the receptacle: the
curculio will not attempt to fly, but
will feign death. Then turn the con.
tents into a pan of water on which
some kerosene has been poured to
kill the insects. This jarring must
be kept up at intervals until the fruit
is more than half grown if you want
to avoid wormy peaches. Earring off
the bitten fruit viii only make the re
mainder better and the crop will not
be reduced, for the trees usually
over-bear.

TREES IN THE oooRYARD.
Discussion of Varieties to Be Used il
identifying the Grounds
About the House.

IN reply to a. correspondent who
writes to inquire about the beautify-
ing of the grounds about his house,
the Ohio Farmer, suggests the inclos-
ing with snug screen the northerly,
back corner of the dooryard. Being
shaded by the house the corner could
not be used for warm-blooded flowers
and should be kept wholly in grass
However, two or three rhododendrons
or single Chinese magnolia would
thrive nicely set in the angle, leaving
most of the narrow lawn free.
| would plant tree north of the
front corner of the house,, three feet
from the fence and in line with the
front of the house. This tree may be
a cut-leafed weeping birch, a catalpa
speciosa, or a cut-leafed alder. The
last is a very beautiful, und-headed
tree, and is not often seen in Ohio.
On the other side of the yard, near
the side but ten feet farther from the
front of the house, a large shade tree
should be planted 1t should branch
low so that the children can climb
INTO it, and should be a rapid grower.
Western Beauty apple tree did ex-
cellent service along these lines and
still stands south of my house, al
though partly carried away by a wind
storm when 25 years old. Il is 40 feet
high and as many feet broad. An Ohio
Nonpareil standing alone just north
of my house spreads So feet and is
about 40 feet high. 1t IS 80 years old
from the root graft
Ii purely ornamental tree is de
sired, my choice would be a Schwed
lerii Norway maple. This is as good
a grower as the plain Norway but
every young shoot in the spring is OF
brilliant crimson. Get young tree
and start the branches low, say two
feet from the ground, and if necessary
to carry the top above carriage
drive trim up the several branches,
making trunks of them One toward
the east might be compelled, by. tying
to stakes to grow horizontally out
from the trunk 80 inches and then be
allowed or trained to grow nearly per
pendicularly, making an available seat
after half a dozen years.
The. front of the, yard may be plant
ed by placing beyond the sidewalk at
each front corner horse chestnut,
one with white blossoms, the other
with red. This would remove the cen
ter of the tree some six or more feet
from the front edge of the lot and en-.
large the lot to that extent. 1t would
be well to plant two feet within the
lot lines so as not to ehcroach upon
the owners of adjoining lots who
might cut the trees in-case of such
encroachment. Twelve feet diagonally.
from the northern horse chestnut
plant white. double hawthorn, and
up the line fence to- the east u feet
plant scarlet double-fowered haw-
thorn. -.
South of the first hawthorn ten feet
just inside the sidewalk. plant a
chiononthus or white fringe. This is
