Various preparations are still be-
ing offered as panaceas for ailments
of fruit trees and for the destroy
ing of insect pests. These are as
numerous as they are injurious.
A Lehigh county farmer wrote to
Prof. H. A. Surface in reference to
the efforts that were made to have
him change from lime-sulphur So
luton in the treatment of his trees
for the control of the San Jose
scale.
Professor Surface wrote as fol-
lows, in reply:
Il was very much pleased to learn
that the tree dope man did not take
you in because you stuck to the
lime-sulphur as recommended in our
bulletins. This is the way to make
intelligent use of this literature.
You may be sure that just as soon
as there is anything better or cheap
er than the lime-sulphur wash to
use on fruit trees we shall surely
make it known through the publ
cations from this office.
1T is a surprise to me what an
extensive business has been done
in this state by agents and manu-
facturers of tree dopes, whether
they be oil sprays or poison TO put
under the bark. People buy these
materials and apply them to their
trees and injure their trees, and
cannot understand, until it is too
late, that the recommendation from
this office are based upon the most
careful tests that can be made, and
that we have absolutely no interests
at stake excepting to help the peo-
l. L. . l.as..
in the easiest and least expensive
manner possible. Please tell your
friends to have nothing to do with
any material that is to be put under
the bark of trees, or injected in
holes in the trees. Hundreds of
dollars have been taken from the
fruit growers of this state for these
materials, and these are now prov
ing injurious to the trees them
selves and not succeeding in sup
pressing the insect pests"

COUNTY FAIRS
ELEVATE STANDARDS,

HARRISBURG, Oct. 1S.-Deputy
Secretary of Agriculture A. L. Mar
tin said yesterday that the Pennsyl-
vania fair season this year, which
is now virtually over, has been un-
usually good.
Excellent exhibits and favorable
weather have combined to bring out
record-breaking crowds in most
cases.
Il visited fifteen or eighteen of
the fairs in person." said Mr.. Martin,
"and was pleasantly surprised at the
progress which is being made.
The elimination of gambling
seems to be almost complete. l saw
no gambling whatever at any of the
fairs / visited although | hear re-
ports that some of the fairs harbor-
ed gambling devices or games which
approached perilously close to gamb-
ling. If any evidence is submitted
that gambling was permitted l shall
do what | can to withhold the state
appropriation from the guilty fair.
81 noticed another thing which is
directly traceable to the sentiment
which has brought about the elm
ination of gambling at the fairs, and
that is the elimination of vulgar side
shows. Such shows are now clean
as rule, and of character which
any one can patronize."

For Fleas in the House.

1t appears that the late warm
weather of the fall has been unusu-
ally favorable to the development of
fleas and other household pests. The
annoyance from fleas has reached
such an extent, that an unusual
number of letters have been receiv-
ed this fall by Prof. H. A. Surface,
state zoologist, Harrisburg, asking
what to do for these pests.
A copy of his reply to such in
quiry from a prominent citizen of
Philadelphia gives details that 9TH
ers have reported practical and sue
cessful, and which, therefore, may
interest many readers.
The Professor wrote as follows:
For fleas in the house it is i'm
portant first to remove their source,
which is generally the sleeping place
of pets, such as cats or dogs. Fleas
drop their eggs during the night in
places where their hosts sleep. Thus
if the floor of their sleeping place
were covered with a rug, this could
be taken out and the eggs and larval
tleas could be shaken from ii.
After the eggs hatch the fleas.
as larvae, feed in organic matter in
dust in cracks of floors, or in other
places where dust can accumulate.
Therefore, the first step in eliminat-
ing the feas would be to destroy
them on the pets. Wash the cat or
dog with a three or four per cent,
solution of creolin in water, or use
a creolin soap or flea soap, or rub
insect powder well into the hair or
fur of the animal. Dust insect pow
der well into its sleeping kennel, or
better, remove the sleeping rugs
and dust them with insect powder
and beat them, or sprinkle or spray
them with a four per cent. solution
of creolin. Wash the interior OF
the sleeping kennel with carbolic
soap suds made strong, or with creo-
lin solution. This gets rid of the
original source of infestation.
The next step is to dust insect
powder, such as Persian insect pow,
der, pyrethrum, or buhac, abundant
ly over the floors of rooms of the
house infested. Keep the rooms
The citizen. (Honesdale, Pa.) 1908-1914, 1910-10-21

tightly closed, and in about one-half
hour sweep them thoroughly, and
burn the sweepings. The insect
powder does not kill the feas but rem
ders them torpid or dormant. 80 they
can be swept up and burned.
The next step is to remove the
carpets and rugs, and beat them on
the grass to get rid of any eggs and
larvae which they may contain, and
wash or scrub the floor of the room
with four per cent. creolin, or one
pint in twenty-five pints of water.
Some men have reported success
in catching fieas in houses by tying
sheets of sticky fly paper around
their boot tops, with the sticky side
outward and walking slowly through
the rooms, when the fleas will Jump
toward them and stick fast. This
is due to the fact that 1t is the habit
of the flea to jump toward a moving
object rather than away from it.
They can also be captured in great
numbers by putting sheets of sticky
fly paper under articles of furniture,
where one will not walk or come in
contact with them.
Where the pests are in cellars
or outbuildings or vacant rooms,
spray with about eight per cent.
creolin in water"

GOOD ADVICE BY =
PROF. SURFACE.

An Easton booklover, Miss,
finding that her bookcase had been
invaded by moths, which were
threatening serious damage to the
volumes contained therein, wrote to
Prof II. A. Surface, state zoologist,
Harrisburg, for instructions in re-
gard to getting rid of the pests.
Professor Surface replied as fol-
lows:
You can destroy the silver-tail
moth in your bookcase by fumigat-
ing with Hydrocyanic Acid gas.
This is a deadly poison for one to
breathe, but you can do the work
safely by following directions here
given. Determine the cubic con-
tents of the case by multiplying to-
gether the depth, height and width.
For each 100 Gu. IT. of space you
will want one ounce of Cyanide of
Potassium, two ounces of sulfuric
acid and four ounces of water.
Pour 1t into an earthen vessel that
will hold two or three times as
much as the liquid takes; put in the
acid and water, and have the cyanide
ready in thin paper bag at one
side. Open the door and window
of your room to ventilate 1t, but be
prepared to close the bookcase tight,
and instantly drop the cyanide into
the case and keep your room well
ventilated. Keep the bookcase
tightly closed for at least two
hours. 1t might be well to ventil-
ate other adjacent rooms at the
same time. Then, by holding the
breath, open the bookcase, and go
out of the room, and, of course,
have no pets in the room during
ventilation. After it has been ven
tilated one-half hour all will be
well, and you can remove the sur
! plus liquid from the jar and throw
it out, so that it will not come in
contact with plants or metals. This
treatment will not injure the most
delicate fabric, and will be perfect
ly safe and effective. | should not
think for a moment of using sur
phur fumes because of the unde-
sirable and even dangerous re-
| suits
