"HE results Of this years investi-
cation with the cooling moth by
- the New Mexico College of Agri-
culture have disclosed interesting facts
that are of Importance TO fruit grow
ers. J. W. Rigney, working under the
direction Of Prof. Garcia, has collected
a mass Of data that will soon be ready
for publication. In this region the cod
ling moth has at least three broods ev-
ery year, whereas in the north 1t is
either single or double brooded, and
even at that II is there the worst pest
Of the fruit grower. But for the aid of
birds, ants, lace-wings and other pre-
daceous insects which feed upon the
moth larvae that fall to the ground in
the fruit and destroy about so percent
of them, the moth would be even
greater drawback to apple and pear
culture.
This has been an exceptional year
in melon and cantaloupe growing. The
quality has been excellent and the
prices good. but the supply has been
only moderate. The farmer in the Me-
silIa valley, as late as the last Of
August, secured $l25 a crate for can
taloupes. The small field of Mr.. Hook
land of Mesilla Park, less than half an
acre. is a good example Of this years
WELD Of watermelons. Before the end
of August it had already produced SIS
worth Of melons and was still in
healthy condition. Eastern papers re-
port that the Mesilla valley cantaloupes
were the best in the market this year.
Director Luther Foster has returned
from attending the meeting of dry
farming experts at Dalhart Texas. He
was able to show the government the
desirability of establishing a dry dem
onstration farm in New Mexico, which
will mean an additional annual expen-
dfture of about $4,000 toward further
ing agricultural interest in this region
The new farm is to be established at
Tucumcari.
Coyotes feed mainly upon rabbits,
prairie dogs, rats, ground squirrels, go

treatment, and Formalin Treatment, the
last Of which is safest, most reliable
and cheapest
Secure a 40 percent solution of for
malin at a reliable drug store. One
pound of formalin is sufficient to treat
from 2O00 to $500 pounds of wheat. Be
fore mixing the solution, get the seed
wheat ready. The treating solution is
made by carefully mixing a one pound
bottle of the formalin with 20 gallons
of water.
The seed may be treated by dipping
or sprinkling. To dip, the seed may be
placed in a gunny sack and the solution
in 4 barrel or tank The wheat should
be Immersed in this for at least ten
minutes and then taken out and allowed
to drain back into the barrel for a short
time The wheat should then be emptied
into a pile in a clean place and covered
with sacks or blankets for two hours,
after which it should be thoroughly
dried before sowing.
How to Sprinkle.
To sprinkle. prepare a clean place on
a canvas or smooth floor. Thoroughly
sprinkle the place with the solution be-
fore spreading the wheat on it. Now
thoroughly sprinkle the spread-Out
wheat and at the same time shovel it
over. Continue to sprinkle and shovel
over the wheat until it is thoroughly
rnoiStened. Next, shovel the wheat into
a pile and cover with sacks or blankets
for two hours, after which 1t should be
thoroughly dried before sowing. Do not
allow the wheat to remain wet too long
after treating, as the terminating quail
ties may be injured.
Place the dried wheat in sacks which
have been dipped in the solution. 1t is
also advisable to sprinkle the grain drill
with the solution before using it. Ex-
ercise every precaution not to bring
the treated seed in contact wit hany
that has not been treated or in bins
which have contained smut wheat. The
wheat should be treated but short
time before sowing it.

DRY FARMING.

possibility but the absolute necessity
of Irrigation as a commercial asset in
the west.
Five years ago dry farming, then but
little understood, although, in truth.
practiced for several hundred years,
was derisiveIy received by many as a
land agents myth, created as a means
Of disposing of acreage in the socalled
desert districts. The few men VINO at

at Denver four years ago believed they
knew the west and its requirements, and
they had cofidence in the reports by the
emigration agents, who had been shoot

dry farming
Today dry farming stands prominent
among agricultural and civic develop
ment organizations in the world.
Through it's influence, agricultural col
leges have added dry farming depart

Milwaukee, Wis, oct. 24.-Still
wearing bandages over the wounds
they received at the hands of depu-
ties in the stubborn defense of his
cabin at Cameron Dam n week ago,
Myra Dietz and Clarence Dietz, child
rem of John Detz, the defender Of
the cabin, arrived here today to
raise funds for the defense of their
father, mother and brother, who are
charged with the murder of Deputy
Sheriff Ascar Harp. Harp was shot
during the fighting arohnd the Dietz
cabin.
The appeal of the Dietz children
met with response and Dietz de-
fense committee was speedily
formed. Simultaneously with their
arrival the news was received that
the lumber company, whose quarrel
with Dietz lies behind the trouble,
had sent laborers to cut Cameron
dam.
The Dietz defense committee In
tends to incorporate and TO fight the
prosecution of Dietz stubbornly.
Sympathy for Myra Dietz, who
was shot from ambush by bullet
intended for her father, is causing a
great fow of support for her fathers
cause. The action Of the lumber
company In rushing the work twas
unable to do while Dletz was at lib
erty also is acting in Dietz' favor
The company will be enjoined from
proceeding until the trial Of Dietz is
concluded, according to the defense
committee.

Philadelphia, Pa, Oct. 24.-With
almost the entire population Of
Philadelphia, headed by Mayor Rey-
burn and the city council, prominent
bankers and other business men, at
the depot to greet them, the cham
pion Athletics arrived home at 5
o'clock today and were accorded an
ovation that would have made
Father Penn jealous.
For two hours after the train ar
rived Philadelphia's main streets
were solid banks of wildly cheering
humans, who footed horns, ratified
cowbells and whistled sirens. Street
car traffic was brought almost to a
standstill and King Baseball
reigned supreme.
When the champions swung from
their special train they were seized
by enthusiastics who would admit
of no police restraint and, hosting
their heroes upon their shoulders,
headed a gigantic serpentine parade
that marched to line of waiting
automobiles.
A parade was formed that ira
versed the principal streets to th'
