MAYOR DUNN TRIMMED.
Governor Vetoes Wiilimantic Fair
Liquor Matter.

Hartford, July 31.-The sending by
Governor Woodruff of veto In the
Willimantic fair liquor matter to the
senate to-day has developed an inter-
esting situation, and it has given rise
to the repeating of a story Of deal
in which Mayor Dunn, of Willmantic,
is mixed up. The resolution which
the governor vetoed provided for the
sale Of liquor near the fair grounds in
Willimantic during the agricultural
exhibition. Governor Woodruff's OBJ
lection to the passing of the bill was
that 1t was special legislation.
The story being told about the deal
Is substantially as follows At the
time of the Malone amendment pro-
ylding for the FORGETTING of trolley eX
tension charters by the Consolidated
IL one-tenth of the work is not done
by 1908, Mayor Dunn promised to de-
liver twelve votes to defeat it, He
carried out his agreement, and the
measure was baked. He received in
return, 1t is said, the assurance that
his liquor resolution, which he was
personally backing, should be passed
Now it looks as If it was up to the
Consolidated to get the vetoed meas
nre through.

had for its object the robbery Of
wealthy Armenians and led to the
murder Of the rug merchant, Tavs-

Fumigation for the Destruction of
Insect Pests.
By Prof. w. F. Masse.

The fact has been we'll established
that for the thorough determination
OF the insect pests that infest our
cultivated trees and plants there is
nothing that equals the fumigation
with hydrocyanic acid gas.
This is particularly true of those
insects shat infest our greenhouses.
Here spraying with the ordinary
fungicide and insecticide mixtures is
not available, because of the injury to
the appearance of ornamental plants
and to the paint on these structures.
Fumlgatlon then becomes the only
available and efficient remedy.
Ibis is also true in the case of the
nurserymen who wish to avoid the
risk of sending out infested stock,
even where they are reasonably sure
that their stock is not infested. In
tact IN many states the law now re-
CURES that all nursery stock shall be
tum1gated before shipment. While
the great expense of tents, etc., NAV
operate in many instances against
efforts at fu1nigation in the orchard.
there is no doubt that even there the
complete eradication of the pests
"ouiu H!dhe tHe process cheap, as
compared with the partial destruc-
ton OF the trees by spraying, since
one fumigation would certainly last
for the season at least.
But in the case of the florist and
the nurseryman, fumigation is really
the only effective remedy. Hence
it becomes necessary for them to
study the methods and materials
used in order to learn the most
economical and practical way of do
ing the work. The usual method
has been to develop hydrocyanic gas
by dropping cyanide of potash into
sulphuric acid in closed house,
But lately there has been an effort

heretofore used in this state against
white fly and scale insects, and when
this fact becomes known throughout
the orange growing sections of the
state, fum1gat1ng companies will be
organized and equipped with the ne
cessary tents and engage in the fun
igatlng business, as they are doing
in California. Then the large or
small grower may have his grove
fumigated by experienced men and
at the least possible expense, thus
freeing his trees from white fly, scale,
and all other pests which are sapping
the life out of them, thus putting
them in condition to yield good crops
Of nice, clean fruit which will repay
in fumigation.
Prof Morrill, visited us frequently
during the time we were fumigating,
making examinations and giving us
the benefit of his superior knowledge
in connection with the work.
The disadvantages of fumigation
are as follows:
I. The cost of the outfit, which as
before stated is pretty heavy.
2 All Work must De zone DIT 11gnl,
which necessitates an increase in
wages to the men.
3. The work must be done under
the eye of an experienced man, which
means another additional cost.
The principal advantage over spray
ing is the advantage of a poisonous
gas over a poisonous liquid. When
a tree is covered with tent and the
tent filled with gas one breath Of
which is certain death to any breath
ing thing, it stands to reason that
nothing inside the tent can escape
it's deadly fumes; while with liquid
it is utterly impossible to reach every
spot, and consequently a great many
insects escape unframed and continue
to multiply and carry on their work
Of destruction.
At some future time will tell you
something about our irrigation plant
which is said to be the best in the
state, and which has saved several
times it's cost this year.

made to show that cyanide of potash
may be more economically replaced
by the cyanide of sodium. When a
nurseryman is told that 100 kilo-
grams of cyanide of sodium will pro-
duce as much hydrocyanic gas as
1872 kilograms of cyanide Of potash,
he is apt to at once lump at the con-
clusion that the sodium cyanide can
be used as cheap substitute for the
potassium salt. But test will prove
liberated is less than the amount of
gas released by the potassium cyanide,
because when the sodium salt is
treated with sulphuric acid, a residue
forms consisting partly Of solicited
sulphate of soda and partly of un-
decomposed cyanide Of soda.
On the other hand, the residue left
from the use of potassium cyanide
is not solidifed mass of useless
material, but crumb1es to powder.
This powder is not valueless article
to the cu1tivator, like the sodium
su1phate, but is the potassium sui
plate that commands high price as
a fertilizer. This fact that the residue
from the potash salt is valuable
fertilizer will of itself do away with
all claims made for the superior
economy of the sodium cyanide, even
if the claims for a larger production
of gas had to be granted, for the resi-
due resulting from the use of the sodi-
um cyanide is a perfectly worthless
article to the cultivator, while the resi-
due from the potash salt is sulphate
of potassium in readily available
form that would command on the
market over $3.50 per 100 pounds as
fertilizer From this we see how
important it is for the grower to
study all the actual facts in connec-
ton with the process.

farmers who on reaching the age when
they desire to lay aside the burdens of

ing that they are to receive care for
the remainder of life in return. These
arrangements seldom if ever prove sat-

Fumlgation at Isleworth.
By J. w. Hoard.

Most of your readers who are en-
gagged in orange growing have no
doubt read, with interest, Prof. A.
w. Morrell's article on Fumigation
Methods, which appeared in the
March 18TH issue of the Agriculturist,
and it has occurred to the writer that
these same readers would perhaps be
interested in the fact that other fumi-
eating operations of considerable i'm
portance are being carried on in
Orange County.
Messrs. Chase & Co., Of Jackson
vile and Sanford, who own the ia
nous Isleworth groves and nurseries
twelve miles west Of Orlando, and
of which the writer has had the
charge for the past seven years, have
purchased fumigating outfit similar
to that used by Prof Morrill, in his
white fly experiments at Orlando, for
the purpose of fumigating their grove
for purple scale, which has caused
much damage to trees and fruit for
several years past, to say nothing Of
the time and money spent in using
all manner of spraying mixtures.
Owing to delay in getting out tents
from the factory, we failed to get
over the entire grove before the
trees commenced blooming, about
March I, but what work we have
done has given very satisfactory re-
suits, and will be continued just as
soon as the young oranges are we'll
set.
Our outfit consists of four large
sheet tents, "a feet in diameter, for
10 +raa 1xra
smaller sheet tents, 81 feet in diam
eter, to be used on smaller budded
trees; two derricks 80 feet high for
raising the large tents, full COM
plement of generators (stone jars),
scales for weighing chemicals, and
other paraphernalia, not necessary
to mention at this time. We also
secured the services Of an expert
enced fumigator from California to
superintend the work.
With our outfit of sixteen tents
four men can fumigate sixteen trees
every hour. AS it requires one hours
time for the chemicals to do their
work it may easily be seen that six
teen trees can be treated with Our
outfit in same time one tree could
be done with only one tent; hence
the necessity of having a sufficient
number of tents to keep the men
busy.
The first cost of fumigation out
fit is considerable and will place them
beyond the reach OF the average small
grower, but after the outfit has been
installed the cost Of fumigation for
labor and material is very little, if
any greater than for spraying, when
it is considered that one fumigation
is good for two or three years, where
as spraying must be repeated every
ten to fourteen days during the hatch
ing season, to be of any benefit what
be no doubt as to the superiority
of fumigation over all other methods
