In the khedtve's Army.
Gen. Henry Ronald Douglas MacIVer.
who died IN New York Monday, was one
OF a band OF gallant young officers Of the
Confederate army who left the United
States Immediately after the close Of the
civil war and went 10 Egypt. where they
we're given commissions IN the Khedlve' s
army. There were a dozen or fifteen OF
these bold young adventures altogether,
only two or three Of whom remained long
ia the service CT the Khedlve They had
gone there 20 find more fighting, and when
this failed 10 materialize and they had 10
settle down TO the humdrIm life OF gar
rison duty nearly all Of them resigned
after about a years experience and re-
turned home. They introduced into the
Egyptian army the military tactics Of the
Confederate army which had been f0rmu-
lated by Hardee, West Pointer who,
ike so many regular officers Of the old
army. joined the Confederacy. These
tactics were employed by the Khedive' S
officers until the British protectorate was
established and the British military sys-
TEN was introduced. Thus Il is probable
that the old Hardee tactics survived
longer IN Egypt than IN any other part
OF the world. One Of Gen. 3IacIver's COM
panions in arms in Egypt was Capt J.
Howard Alien. Of keQtuCky. who is now
a leading lawyer ia Seattle, Wash II

SHALL WE SPRAY FOR
THE COOLING MOTH Z

Fruit growers are writing the
Agricultural College Experiment
Station to know whether or not 1t
will be necessary to spray their
apple trees this year for the cod
ling moth. The questions are
being asked by those who have
lost most II not ali Of their crop
by the late oold weather.
If no fruit is being borne by the
trees, it will not be necessary to
spray for this insect. Upon the
other hand, IL there should be a
very light crop of apples, the ne.
cessity for very thorough spraying
will be greater than in ordinary
years, because the moths will
hatoh in the usual mum bers and
will he compelled to concentrate
their egg-layinR about the few
apples that the orchard is bearing
1t is possible that the crop may be
50 light in many instances that
the apples may become wormy in
spite of tho spraying. and in such
cases / believe it would be wise to
destroy oil the fruit early in the
sssson and in this way practically
wipe out all the codling moth dep
relation in your vicinity for two
or three years. In every section
where the apple orchards bear this
year, fruit growers should support
their inspectors in every reason
abe m nner in their efforts to get
every man who has bearing apple
trees to take care OF his codline
moths and destroy all OF them
possible. In this way some bene.
