OF INTEREST TO FRUIT GROWERS

seems. to an abundance of worms
though the fruit growers have put up
q. hard and fairly successful fight
with their sprays. The color and
size promises well. The county
should ship fully $50 cars.
Peaches are a full crop in the Pal
isade district but very light in the
Clifton and Grand junction districts.
For the county there should be Go
per cent of a crop which would mean
fully 500 cars. The early ones are
going forward at lively rate at
this date and have been for some
weeks.
The pear crop is going to turn out
better than at first thought There
will be more than half crop and
these of excellent quality. This will
bring the crop in cars around $50.
Bartletts begin coming off this week.
There will probably be around 1900
cars of all varieties aside from small
fruits. cantaloupes etc. This win be
about 60 per cent of last years crop.

Information as to the best methods
OF exterminatinE the pests
The presence OF the ash borer can
easily be learned by small piles of
saw dust at the bottom OF the trees.
The ash borer appears in the spring
in the form OF beetle. Many eggs
are laid on the bark OF the ash tree
which later hatch into a worm. II IL
this worm that bores its way into the
heart OF the tree. In the fall OF the
year the worm forms chrysaiis in
which II sleeps through the winter.
When 1t emerges from the chrysaiis
II is developed into beetle and be-
gins industriously 10 lay more eggs.
There are several remedies for fs
determination OF the worm. Carbon
di-sulphide and creosote dip is pre-

made by the worms with a small N
can. In the latter method the worms

fenced. Mrs. Maria Kappa and Stanis-

Rizzo and Giuseppe Longo, to not less
than twenty-five years nor more than
forty-nine years and ten months in
Auburn prison, the limit of the law.
In imposing sentence Judge Fawcett
said:
Il heartily wish | could impose the
death penalty on you, but the law
does not permit me. Criminals of
your class never should have been ad-
mitted to this country. No worse men
are let live than Black Handlers Peo-

practices should be punished as Sc
verely as those guilty of murder"
While delivering his scathing ar
raignment of the BLACK Hand" and
its methods, Judge Fawcett was sur
rounded with detectives, as were also
the prisoners.
Mrs. Kappa and Pattenza, as shown
at their trials, were the leaders and
brains of the gang that kidnapped the
Rizzo and Longo boys and held them
captives for $4,000 ransom each, in

house until December s, when a raid
