An interesting ceremony recently
took place at Bournemouth. when the
lord mayor (Sir George Truscott)
opened the enlargement of the pier,
which his father, Sir Francis Trus-
colt, originally opened. No seaside
resort in England is making more re-
markable strides than Bournemouth.
Development of the most satisfactory
character is seen in every direction,
and the demand for houses on the
part OF those who wish to make the
town their permanent abode Is In
creasing every year. In view OF the
wonderful progress witnessed. people
can hardly believe that until nearly
the middle of the nineteenth century
Bournemouth did not even occupy a
place on the map of England. Its re-
markable growth is. of course. mainly
traceable to the great natural advan-
tages of the place. in respect alike Of
situation and sanitary conditions.
The lovely and salubrious town is
situated at the western extremity OF
Hampshire. on magnificent bay.
bounded by lofty cliffs. On these
there are wide and well-kept paths,
plentifully supplied with seats and
shelters, while winding avenues and
steps at intervals along the shore
form an easy means of communica-
ton between the upper and lower
levels Of the coast The duke of
Argyll aptly described Bournemouth
as the garden city by the southern
sea-" and seldom has an individual
opinion, thus tersely given, been more
heartily and widely Endorsed than in
this particular instance. England is
rich in watering-places which COM
bine beauty of coast-line with that of
inland scenery. and Bournemouth GER
tainly heads the list in this respect.
for rarely, even on the south coast,
can be seen a more perfect combina-
ton of bold cliffs and golden sands
with belts of woodlands, "sweet-smell-
ing of pine leaves and grasses" which
mingle their notwithstanding odors
with the scents of the shore and the
breakdown breaths of the sea.
To the holiday seeker lured shore
wards in summer Bournemouth holds
out unrivaled charms. There Is no
taste which she is incapable of graft
flying, no age at which her many at
fractions can be said to pail. for she
appeals to grabbed age and youth
alike. To the invalid she gives as
surance OF returning health. to the
healthy a perennial round of whole
some pleasures; to the young the
joyous activities which give additional
delight to living, and to contemplative
old age the calm and peace necessary
to the well-being Of human existence
in its decline.
The sands of Bournemouth are a
source of perpetual happiness to the
children, who build all day with its
damp, golden grains unsubstantial
castles which topple into the incom-
ing tide, or dig into its saffron depths
shallow beds in which to immune some
tiny wandering wave. The beach has
its attractions for their elders also,
as they lie prone in 5lissful ease in

RASPBERRY PEST
EASILY KILLED
HOW TO DESTROY WORM OR

(By C. p. Gillette. Colorado State
Entomologist)
The raspberry worm, or slug. as 1t
Is more commonly called. is beginning
ats depreciation again upon the rasp'
berry foliage. Several inquiries have
been received at the experimental sta
ton concerning 1t.
This insect has occasoned severe
losses to owners of raspberry patches
In the eastern portion Of Colorado dur
Ing the past two or three years. This
Is one of our easiest pests to control
IL properly managed. The insect in
question is small worm, covered
with short hairs or spines and is so
near the color OF the leaf that 1t Is
often overlooked when quite abundant.
Its injuries are first noticed by the
appearance of numerous small holes
In the raspberry leaves. These holes
gradually increase in size and number
until often times the leaves are com
pletely devoured.
AS this insect eats away the tissue
of the leaves 1t may be killed by the
use OF one of the food poisons such as
white hellebore. arsenate of lead, oil
Paris green. II the fruit is still upon
the bushes, hellebore is the poison to
use, as 1t may be applied in sufficient
quantity to destroy the worms without
any danger whatever of injury to
those who eat the fruit. Hellebore is
applied wet by mixing one ounce with
each three gallons of water and then
applying as a spray. 1t may be used
dry by mixing 1t with about five times
Its bulk of common baking flour and
sitting It over the leaves through
cheesecloth sack or applying it by
means of a bellows until the leaves
are lightly busted with the powder.
Hsllebore is most effectual when used
towards evening as the slugs feed free
ly during the evening and early morn
Ing.
II the bushes are not bearing fruit,
arsenate of lead may be used as
spray in the proprtion Of one pound
to each twenty-five gallons of water.
II one prefers to use Paris green 1t
may be applied also as spray. using
one pound to each 100 gallons of wa
ter. A thorough use Of any OF the
above remedies will be very effectual
in keeping this insect in check.
