Small Fund Only Is Available For
This Undertaking, But Great
Results Are Expected = Wider
Efforts Next Season.

Prof. w. Il. Rumsey, of the West
Virginia experiment station is expect
ed to arrive in Martinsburg this even
ing or tomorrow morning for the pur-
pose of taking charge of the vigorous
campaign to be waged against San
Jose scale in the orchards of Berkeley
and adjoining counties, as announced
last week in The Evening Journal.
The last session of the legislature
provided small amount for the pay
ment of the expenses Of inspections
and inspectors have been appointed
In number Of counties. The fact
that their labors have not been more
extended is due to the small appro-
priation that has been made for the
purpose.
Many trees have been examined foy
the peach yellows,, the black knot
In cherry and plum trees and the San
Jose Scale in the apple trees. A great
many OF the condemned trees have
been destroyed, but there has been
some trouble experienced from the
owners OF trees who have not under-
stood the pressing necessity Of get.
ting rid OF the infection for the pro-
lection Of themselves and their neigh
bors.
In one instance a suit has beer
brought by the owner Of an orchard
visited by an inspector and ordered
to destroy a number Of trees. These
were not destroyed, and the inspec-
tor went in and cut down the trees,
afterwards removing them and de-
stroying them. This is pending in
Berkeley county.
No peaches to count for anything
have been raised in the state this
year and much OF the blame Of this
condition is laid to the fact that no
attention, has been paid to the care.
of the trees by many OF those who
own them.
Steps will be taken to render tho
work of next year more widespread
and thorough. but until the state shall!
appropriate more money It will be an
almost hopeless task to accomplish any
lasting or adequate results.
