The San Jose Scale.

The San Jose (San Hozey) scale Is the most
pernicious insect pest OF fruit and shade trees
In South Carolina. In some sections the own.
ers Of the trees are cutting them down owing
to the presence Of this insect. The division
Of en- tomology OF the South Carolina expert
ment station has repeatedly emphasized the
fact in the press that there Is no necessity for
cutting down or otherwise destroying tree
merely because 1t Is infested with The San
Jose scale unless the tree is so far gone that 1t
has not enough vitality left to recover after
the scale Is killed. Although one ofthe worst
insects In America, II has been demonstrated
over and over again that the pest can be suc-
cessfully and economically controlled. Fruit
growers all over the United States who are
troubled with this pest are controlling 1t by
the sprays devised for that purpose. All
dying or who know that their trees are In.
tested with scale. or who have trees In an un-
thrifty condition are invited to write to the

cars OF car companies who buy enormous
quantities of the best timber. Then they
keep the farmers busy getting out ties in
the winter.
Who is affected when the railroads stop
buying lumber, as has happened during the
last Year,
The lumber companies restrict their out
put, the sawmill men are laid off, so are
the timber cutters, the Transfers, the office
forces, the supply men. Then the concerns
who sell ADDE'S, saws, axes, grease, wagons,
horses and the thousand and one require
ments In that line of business notice a ma
terial reduction in their business.
What do they do?
They lay off employees, cut down expenses,
stop buying the raw material from which
their stock is manufactured.
Who suffer?
That's easy. Each employe all along the
line of a business with so many ramifioa-
tions, reduces his expenses. cut down to
the quick and the merchant and seller Of
supplies to the household finds his trade
growing smaller and smaller.
And then?
The retailer cuts his orders and the job
Der cuts his and along we come 10 the
manufacturer Of things for the human be-
ing and his living, and he, in turn, lays off
men and they In turn go around the Same
circle of economy,
And so on, argues this philosopher, in the
steel business and all others and in thu
labor market, is the prosperity and the
money spending ability Of the railroad the
foundation OF business.
There is a plethora of money in banks,
but the railroads cannot borrow 1t and
spend it, because their credit is exhausted.
Whenever the railroads can again show
that they can pay the interest on new loans,
then will prosperity return.
This analyzer OF conditions thinks that a
merchant would rather pay $40 a year more
freight and do 1880 more business than
pay $40 less freight and do 5000 less bust
ness.
