FIGHTING THE COOLING MOTH

Arsenate Of Lead Found to BE the
Most Effective Remedy Yet Used. -sv
For a number OF years the state ex-
pertinent station at Pullman has given
especial attention to the codling moth.
This insect is responsible for all the
wormy apples Of this region, and is
accordingly one Of the greatest drains
on the profits of the farmer.
Throughout the state there are apple
growers who believe that the codling
moth cannot be overcome, or that to
do so would be most expensive un-
dertaking. 1t was to convince such
people that the fight against the cod
ling moth is both easy and inexpen-
sive that the state experiment station
has given it's attention to the matter.
During 1903 and 1904 the habits of
the codling moth were studied, to note
the influence of topographic conditions
on the life history of the insect. 1t
was found that throughout nearly
every apple e-growing district two dis
tinct broods of the insect occur each
year In 1905 a practical application
Of the knowledge gained was made by
treatment of 20 acres OF commercial
orchard which previously had been un-
profitable because' of worms in the
fruit This treatment resulted in 2
saving of 80 per cent of the crop. and
at less expense for spraying than had
! wormy.
Incidentally, some thee dozen spray
| ing methods were tested to seek some-
thing better than the ordinary paris
green. Arsenate Of lead gave great
promise, and during the past summer
has been thoroughly tested in 125
acres Of run down orchard. Careful
counts, have just been completed,
which show that four sprayings Of
arsenate Of lead have saved IS per
cent of the crop. During the last few
years. 1t must be remembered, these
same orchards have been unable te
save more than per cent Of the crop
although they had been sprayed.
Some very, important conclusions
have been drawn from the study o.
/ the codling moth. They show that nj
orchard has been ss badly infested
but that four careful sprayings o
arsenate of lead win give at least s.
per cent of clean fruit during the frs
year of the treatment. They shov
that one pound OF arsenate of lead t
40 gallons Of water is the most ef
fective strength for the spray. The
show also that an orchard surrounde
by wormy orchards can be kept fire
from worms II only 1t be properl
sprayed. But they show also tbs
carefulLess and thoroughness are es
sential to success. the null results !,

The rain has stopped work on the

Practical Points.

When asparagus cutting ceases let
the shoots grow up, but keep the weeds
down and the soil well stirred. The
roots should now gather materials for
the next crop The application or
some quickly available fertilizer Will
assist in that direction.
Dig around currant bushes and In
corporate barnyard manure or bone
fertilizer with the earth.
Do not permit grass or weeds to
grow up In the orchard, since the
moisture and best fertilizing elements
required for the growth Of the trees
and fruit will be absorbed by the vege-
tation.
II you see gum or sawdust near the
base Of apple, peach or plum trees dig
or cut out the borers. A sharp point
ed knife will cut them out. A wire
may be used effectively in probing the
borcr holes and then killing the pests.
Jar plum and cherry trees in the
morning, when the curculios are torpid.
Let the chickens eat them.
Pinch out lateral growths of grave
vines to one or two eyes. so that all
clusters will have chance at the
light.

Dr. Hopkins tells the farmers Of his
state Ollinoisy that he never will rec

In the soil Is limestone. The tendency
of burnt lime-caustic lime-is to burn
the soil. Ground limestone will correct
acidity just as effectively as caustic
lime II used in sufficient quantity. 1t
Is the cheapest form Of lime for this
purpose. 1t Is absolutely harmless,
and 1t does the work Of destroying
acidity.
The ground limestone cannot stimu-

1t would not secure as much clover un-
aided as does caustic lime, but it would
do all that may be required of 1t safely
