By FRED s. BROOKS. Associate Ento-
mologist. West Virginia University Ag-
ricultural Experiment Station.)
The forests of West Virginia are
rich in native nut-bearing trees and
sarubs. At least twenty-seven species
are found that bear nuts which are
used as food by man or by the animals
that are of value to man. The nut
bearing trees furnish also the bulk
Of hardwood timber that Is produced
In the state.
With the probable exception of the
beechnut, all the more common varie-
ties of nuts. and, presumably. those
that are less common as well, are at
tackled by the larvae. or grubs, OF over
a dozen different species of snout
beetles. Some of these larvae feed
on the husks and inner tissues of i'm
mature nuts and others on the ker-
nels of nuts that are more nearly
ripe. Young walnuts and hickorynuts
are frequently attacked soon after the
blossoms fall from the trees and the
infested nuts drop to the ground be-
fore they are half grown. Chestnuts,
acorns and some other varieties sus-
tain the greatest injury as they ap-
proach maturity. 1t Ia not unusual
for chestnuts that are kept a week or
two after gathering to become from 80
per cent. to rs per cent. "wormy" and
acorns often suffer to even greater
extent The infested nuts are rem
dered unfit for food and in many cases
are 80 badly eaten that they will not
germinate when planted.
The injury which these insects do to
a valuable article of food and their
direct detriment to natural forest de-
velopment, in causing the failure of

TO DYE GARMENTS
UNNECESSARY TO SEND CLOTHS
TO PROFESSIONAL DYER.
Suggestions About Mixing Simple
Dyes at Home and Instructions In
Combining colors to Make Soft
Unusual Tones.

1t often happens that blouses.
dresses, skirts. ties, ribbons, hats. etc.,
lose their color, and though they
v~rld still be capable of being made
y Of II dyed, are not worth the ex-
pense involved in sending them to a
professional dyer. 1t is not worth
while either. when astonishingly good
results can be obtained at home.
Dyes are sold in small packets. and
by buying two dyes and blending them
all sorts Of beautiful shades can be OBJ
tanned. Some of the colors when used
by themselves are rather crude in
tone. and this original hint should be
of great value to the many people
who use them.
Blouses of lawn. delaine and silk
can be improved beyond recognition.
and a cream or white silk blouse
dyed old rose looks exceedingly well,
or it can be changed to the fashiona-
BILE bright blue shade known as wood
violet" When the material is discol-
ored 1t is best to dye 1t very dark
shade of color. such as myrtle green,
brown. claret. navy. pruns or mul-
berry.
= The trimming OF hat, Wnether
made of piece silk, chiffon or ribbons,
can be altered completely with good
effect.
White and light straw hats can be
changed by the use Of color dyes, sold
In little bottles, two being needed for
each hat. They are diluted to the re-
quired strength with methylated spirit,
and If the trimming (after undergoing
a course of tinting) is carefully ironed
put and replaced on the renovated
straw hat, the effect will be surpris-
lngly good.
Feathers are not a success with the
amateur, and these should always be
lntrusted to the skill of the profes-
sic dyer.
ming stockings. white, cream or
liELte colored, can be made any color
preferred to match the dress they are
Intended to be worn with. while white
satin shoes can also be tinted with
successful results.
Now as to the mixing of the dyes to

chantIIIy Color Effects.

The great event of the early sum-
mer in Paris is the races at Chantilly.
The colors worn then determine the
fashionable rainbow for the coming
season.
This year everything was in two
shades, though sometimes suit was
seen with the skirt and coat the same
color, but OF different materials. Still.
color contrasts were the thing.
The most seen Of these were black
and dark blue, gray and black. gray
and white, and two different shades of
gray. This last was very effective in
deed, the combinations being some.
times quite unusual.
But more than all 1t Is to be black
and white season, which is joyous
news fof the average woman. Purple
and dull green will also be seen with
black.

Costume.-Bronze green face

though simple. is exceedingly smart:

fronts are also cut away: one large
button forms the fastening below the
collar of satin: striped silk forms an
added collar. also little vest and
cuffs.

enable the amateur to get certain ar
tistic shades. Proportion plays most
important part in obtaining certain re-
suits, and little prictise and expert
ence will soon enable any one to do 1t.
Blue and red mixed make purple
and heliotrope. while an admixture
of brown added to the two former col
ors produces nice graduations of null
berry and claret shades.
Green is made from blue and yellow

REGULATE SEX
OF CHICKEN
Scientists Have Been Studying for
Years to Discover Law and
Undoubtedly It Would Be
Boon to Pou1tryrnen.

For years the scientists have been
trying to discover the law that regu-
lates sex. Undoubtedly the discovery
would be a great boon to poultry
keepers. To have the farm over-run
with cockerels when early pullets are
wanted is annoying, and 1t Is not sur
prising that any system purporting to
regulate the sex is eagerly tried by
breeders. We have heard 1t claimed
that the pointed eggs hatched pullets
and the round ones cockerels. and
then again the opposite is claimed.
Others claim that the location Of the
The new era., 1910-09-22

air cell is the determining factor, and
again that 1t is merely a question of
nourishment, the stronger nourished
eggs producing males. Some breed
ers depend upon their matngs, believ-
ing that cockerels mated with hens
will produce preponderance of fe-
males. and that cock mated with pull
let's will produce preponderance of
males. In spite of all the theories
that have been advanced, the law that
controls sex has yet to be discovered.

many nuts to germinate, make the
group an important one from an eco
nomic standpoint.
Nuts are attacked by great va
riety Of insects, but the most serious
injuries are done by moths and snout
beetles. The larvae Of several species
Of moths may be found in chestnuts,
beechnuts and acorns. particularly in
nuts that have their shells broken
go as to permit easy entrance to the
kernel by the insects. The damage
wrought by the class of insects known
as snout beetles, however, is greatly
in excess of that done by all other
kinds combined.
The term "snout beetle" is applied
to the adults of the group of insects
on account of the peculiar structure

A Good Idea.

A pretty way of using the deep.
round lace or embroidery Dutch col
lars is to renovate shirtwaists with
them.
Blouses always wear out around
the neck first and are often discarded
solely on this account.
When this is SO. put on the waist
after cutting away the band collar
only and then lay on the deep collar
Have some person pin around the
lower edge OF 1t TO the waist.
Then baste and carefully sew.
Afterward cut away the material
underneath the collar and sew hooks
and eyes to the edges in the back.
A stock collar may be added If pre-
ferred.

With the first calf the heifer should

in length, or, about fifth longer than
the body. In the male, it is two-thirds
as long as the body. The pygidium,
or last abdominal segment, of the male
is deeply concave with the concavity
smooth and shining and surrounded by
rim of silken hairs. This peculiar
character enables the species to be
separated very readily from all other
members Of the genus.
This species seems to attack only
the acorns Of the biennial oaks and
In my collecting has always been
found more abundant on red oak than
on any other tree. The acorns which
it attacks are late in maturing and
the beetles are correspondingly late in
appearing.

"Are you going to take summer
