BAY STATE
CONVENTION

Boston, Mass, April 10.-Whether
the Massachusetts, delegation to the
Republican national convention would
be instructed Or not was a fruitful
| theme of discussion for several hours
before the Republican state conyen-
ton met today for the choice of four
delegates at large. The committee
on resolutions was unable yesterday
to reach a decision on this question,
and before the convention assembled
today the members of the committee
we're again in session in the endeavor
to adjust matters to the satisfaction
of both pro-Taft and non-instruction
delegates. There was every indication
that there would be a contest over
the So-called instruction or prefer
ence plank in the platform. The mem
bers of the Taft League, which came
out so strongly yesterday in favor
of instructions, were much in evi-
dence this morning and showed no
signs of weakening in their position.
LATER The platform endorses the
Roosevelt administration and postal
savings banks are advocated. In re-
gard to Taft, the platform says: "a
resolution to the effect that the pref
erence of the convention was for
your committee, and upon co1Sidera-
ton we have unanimously agreed
that it was not wise to include a dec
laration in favor Of any particular
candidate in the platform. A number
of the committee members are favor
able to Taft's candidacy, and we all
recognize the fact that majority of
the delegates to the convention de-
sire his nomination. 1t is, however,
very uncertain whether a resolution
of preference would be carried, and
its presentation would certainly lead
to a contest which would be injur-
ious to the party. For these reasons.
and because of their earnest desire
for a harmonious convention, the mi
nority members of the committee
join with the majority in their de
sire not to present a resolution of
preference"
Postmaster General Meyers was
temporary chairman Of the convention
and made an address which was fre-
quently interrupted by applause. The
first mention of the name of Taft in
reading the resolutions was so vocif-
erously applauded and cheered that
the reader was forced to go back to
the beginning Of the paragraph and
repeat.
Senators Lodge and Crane, former
Secretary of the Navy John D. Long
and Sidney o. Bigney We're elected
delegates at large to the national
convention by acclamation.

1t was in this last battle that the
Knights of Malta, so powerful in his
tory and so beautifully perpetuated
in Masonry, won the admiration of
the whole Christian world, and 1 con-
fess myself inspired afresh in walk
ing the sacred ground stained by their
parted by the prows of their vessels.
Even now from yonder rampant l can
in imagination hear the guns of bat
tie which they fired on Turkish invad
ers.
The city of Valetta, a city of over
SO, 900 people, is named for one of the
many famous grand masters, La
Valetta, and most of the powerful for
tifications were built under his lead
ership. 1t is safe to say that the
Turks would have swept with ruin
all of Europe and held it forever IN
their power, except for the bravery
of these Knights. They rendered to
the Christian world a great service,
many have been their deeds of daring
and success, and many times when
great issues for the Kingdom of God
were at stake, the white Cross" ban
ner waved over many a field of strife.
1t may be added that the knights of
Malta are not extinct today. AS late
as 1879 Count CASH, of Italy, was ap-
pointed as Grand Master, and there
are many local societies in Europe
today.
The Church of ST. John in Valetta
contains the tombs of 400 Knights,
ana nearly all the Grand Masters,
and 1 felt thrilled there as 1 did
standing before the remains of .Colum
bus in Seville, Spain, or before the
house in Madeira, Portugal, where ne
once lived.
Do not imagine these knights were
giants. for they were not. In the ar
mory hall of the Governors palace
are tons of the armor worn BY these
brave fighters; and, strange ito say
it is too small for the average large
man of America today. Helmets for
head, coverings for chest and back.
and other pieces, will only fit the
understood man. In this pa lace also
is the original document written by
Charles v. in giving Malta to the
Knights, and the long trumb pet which
sounded the surrender of Rhodes in
1922.

Roswell N NJ, April 8, 1908.
"The Roswell Record,
Roswell, n. M.
Gentlemen:- l send you herewith
letter received from c. p. Gillette
professor at the State Agricultural
College of Colorado, at FIT. Collins
which is in response to an inquiry
about their experiments in the de-
struction of the codling moth. We
were informed that they had made
very complete and satisfactory exper-
iments, and that the orchardists in
Colorado We're getting very fine re-
suits from their spraying for the cod
ling moth. This letter confirms this
information, and gives some directions
as to the best method of spraying,
and believing it would be well to pub
lish it, and thinking you may wish
to do so, l send it to you for this
purpose. Yours very truly,
VIM. F. GREENWOOD.
Eft Collins, Colo, Apr. 4, 1908.
''Mr. William F. Greenwood,
Roswell, New Mexico.
Dear Sir:-Your letter of March
81 has been handed to this Office for
reply.
Some one has told you probably of
our experiments on the western slope
for the control of the codling moth.
We have been experimenting with
this insect for a number of years and
have been very successful indeed. In
fact, the most of our fruit growers
on the western slope have ceased to
consider the codling moth very Sc
rious pest. 1t is one they have to
combat every year, but the better or
chardists are now able to control this
pest with two or three sprayings. Ma
ny are only spraying twice. l will
mail you a press bulletin giving in
formation in regard to the spray to
use and the manner of applying it.
1t is my Judgment that the very
best early treatment to use for the
codling moth is a spray using arse
nate of lead in the proportion of four
or five pounds to one hundred gal
Ions of water, the first application be-
ing made as soon as the blossoms
have fallen from the trees, and the
second application about four weeks
later The application that is made
as soon as the blossoms are off, is
for the purpose of filling every calyx
CUP with the poison liquid. The spray
four weeks later is for the purpose
of covering the little apples as COM
pletely as possible with the spray.
We have been most successful using
the medium coarse spray for the first
and a very fine spray for the second
application. If the first treatment is
not made, 1 believe it is impossible
| to save the crop from serious injury
| by later treatments, as most of the
| worms eat in at the blossom ends OF
the apples, and after the blossom end
| is closed, it is no longer possible to
get the poison into it so as to destroy
the worms that enter the apple al
that point. If these two treatments
have not been successfully made, one
can get many of the worms entering
| the fruit later in the season by
third treatment about one month af
| ter the second.
l believe it is very much easier to
keep this insect in check by putting
the whole effort on destroying the
first brood of worms, so l am recon
mending very strongly the two spray
