The delay in the matter of the town
and state cooperating 10 combat the
Ia. that moro snTaNs
ing will be done this season or that only
n small amount will be done. II is now
too late TO attempt TO spray fruit trees.
4 prominent apple raiser said this week
that he was very much inclined to be.
lieve that even such spraying as had
been done this spring would result disas-
trously to the fruit crop, lie thoueh'
hat the work of spraying had been
started too late this spring and that
only cutting and burning will be OF any
avail until after the fruit crop is gather
ed next fall While cutting and burning
means the destroying of the pest IL II
a fact that spraying means the saving
of young trees. Much work has already
becn done about this village in cutting
trecs and shrubs infested with the scale
and considerable spraying was done last
week
The local census enumerators began
their work last Friday. Clifford Cook,
Hngh Arnew. Harrie B. Chase and Rob
prt Mitchell have the territory within
tbe village limits while the outlying
territory is being canvassed by Il. q.
Frost. A misunderstanding on the part
IF one of one of the village enumerators
as to the limits of his territory has caus-
ID somewhat of mixup but 1t is ex-
oected that the matter will be straight
,ned out without great diihcuity:
Everyone interested in the outcome OF
he census in this town hopes that all or
he local enumerators will bear in mind
he importance of counting every single
.esident. Already there has been some
complaint to the effect that persons have
,een skipped. Any person who knows
# such an oversight can help along the
Bigger Brattleboro cause by reporting
q The matter at once to the proper emu
nerator.
