from Warrenton to the train dispatcher at
Augusta, who Immediately had locomotive
sent to Warrenton and the train brought to
Camak. Train No. 80 departed from War
renton 900 and arrived Camak 8 30 P. M,
where the usual transfer was made, Train No.
% leaving Camak :28 and arriving Augusta
10 :48 T. M, two hours and eight minutes late,
making all connections the same as if it had
arrived on time.
The engineer employed on Train No. 80
on this trip has served as fireman and four
teen years as an engineer-twenty-t wears
on the Georgia Railroad. His record and ex-
perience are such that we had no reason to
doubt the accuracy of his estimate as to the
time. which would elapse before the train
would be ready to move, but, like other good
men, he mlscalculated on this occasion. Of
course, IT In the beginning we had been in
possession OF information that Train No. 80
would have been delayed as it was, Train
No. % would have been allowed to continue
to Augusta on time, as has been the practice
IN the past when branch line trains were so
seriously detained. At the time of the ac-
cldent Train No. 80 was on time. It was i'm
possible to tell beforehand that the eccentric
would break. The locomotive had recently
been overhauled IN the Augusta shops and was
IN good condition. The engineer who was
i'lllilllS ~ states CldC he mao no previous
trouble with it, and that there was no difficult
ty IN maintaining the schedule. The locomo-
tive is still doing service and is subject to
such examination as the Commission may
wish to prescribe.
The disability at 4 10 mile post was of such
character (the track being INSTRUCTED by the
broken brake beam on tender) that the train
could not have been moved by another loco
motive until repairs were made therefore
nothing could have been accomplished by
sending relief engine. To have backed Pas

Mr.. Campbell Wallace,
Secretary Railroad Commission of Georgia,

Dear Sir:
[ in receipt of your letter of August
29th, file 1905, in which you quote from Mr..
Thomas e. Watson's communication concern
ing delay to Train No. % at Camak. August
oath.
The following is submitted in explanation:
The engine on Train No. 80 from Macon,
which connects at Camak with Train No. %,
was disabled at a point four and one-half
miles from Camak and one and one-half miles
west of Warenton, the eccentric on locomo-
tive breaking, necessitating the disconnection
Of the rods connecting driving wheels with
cylinder. This breakage also caused damage
to brakes on tender This disability occurred
at 6 :55 ?. M. and at O5 P. M. the conductor
had connected up his telephone and reported
direct to the train dispatcher at Augusta,
stating that the train would be ready to leave
within thirty minutes and exactly at the ex-
plratlOn of the thirty minute period the loco
motive had been put on zone SIDE" that is,
the work of disconnecting the driving wheels
from the cylinder on one side had been COM
pleted, when the break beam trouble on ten
der above referred to was discovered At Z As
L. M, or ten minutes after the temporary
connection of the eccentric, the conductor Re
ported the trouble with the brakes stating
that the engineer expected to be able within a
very few minutes to move, and from time to
time similar messages were received by the
train dispatcher until 8 :35 p. M. when re-
pairs were completed, and the train proceeded,
arriving at Warrenton 8:45 P. M. When at
tempt was made to start the train from War
renton it was found that the locomotive had
stopped "on CENTER" that is, the piston had
stopped in position to prevent steam enter
ing the cylinder, making it impossible for the
locomotive to move, the breakage of the &C.
centric having necessitated disconnection of
the second cylinder at the 4 1-2 mile post. This
information was promptly communicated

a Reply.

RAILROAD COMMISSION OF GEoRGI

Hon Thos. E. Watson,
Thomson, Georgia.
Dear Sir:
Referring again to your letter of August
25th, In which you made complaint upon &C
count of inconvenience experienced by your
self and other passengers by reason of delay
to Georgia Railroad train No. %, on Thurs
day evening, August Oath, beg to advise
that, as indicated in my letter of August Goth,
we took this matter up with the officials of the
Georgia Railroad with view of thoroughly
investigating the situation Of which you COM
planned, and in order that you may be advised
as to what the Commission has been able to
develop in this connection I have been direct
ed to send you copy of response to your COM
plant filed by Superintendent w. S. Brand
or the Railroad Company.
In transmitting this response to you have
been further directed by the Commission to
say that it has not accepted as final this an
swer from the Railroad Company, but is con-
tlnuing it's investigation into this matter with
view Of ascertaining all the facts and cir
cumstances in connection with your complaint
We will, of course, be glad to keep you adj
vlsed as to any progress made in our investi-
CATION. Yours very truly,

of trees will be more careful and will
nurseryman from whom he is about
to buy: and the nurseryman will be
more careful in selecting his scions,
and in every way possible in keeping
his stock true to name.
Perhaps the unreliability of nursery
stock is to be found more in the man
ner in which far too many nursery
men gather their scionS than in any
other one fact. Mr.. Lichty found
that some nurserymen buy very
large per cent of their scions by pay
ing so much per thousand and have
them cut and sent to them without
any supervision whatever. The man
who sells them sometimes sends out
his hired men to cut the scions and
they work without any supervision
whatever. A reliable nurseryman
who is conscientious about his work
will never depend on "Tom, Dick
and Harry" in securing his scions.
There are many ways in which mis-
takes may be made in the nursery
business without any intention of
dishonesty.
| believe that Mr.. Lichty will az
compIish much good in what he is
doing in these Investigations. He is
thoroughly honest and would not in
tentionally wrong any one. [ know
him we'll and do not hesitate to make
this statement. Mr.. Lichty did not
ask me to indorse him and is not ex-
pecting me to say any thing about his
reliability.

For Reliable Nursery Stock.

The other day l had a conference
with my old friend, H. M. Lichty
He has been devoting considerable
time to the question of reliable
nursery trees. He has written good
many letters to persons who, some
years ago, bought trees and set out
large orchards. He tried to find out
what per cent of those trees we're true
to name when they came into bearing;
what per cent failed to grow, and in
a general way how reliable those trees
proved to be. 1t is not his intention
to expose any individual, for that
would bring on an unseemly contest
and might bring on law suits. His
purpose seems to be to show in a
general way how much dependence
can be put in the average nursery
man. The results are in some cases
astounding. His Investigations will
do good in two directions. The buyer

THE DREADED COOLING MOTH.

THE DREADED COOLING MOTH.
The worst of all insect pests is the
codling moth so far as they affect the
work of fruit growing. The San Jose
scale is dreaded pest and has done
much harm to fruit trees but its con-
troll is easy compared to the control
of the codling moth. By spraying
with the lime-sulphur wash once in
two years, and sometimes once each
year, we can SO control the San Jose
scale that we do not lose one box of
apples from the attacks of this pest
where we lose 500 boxes by the ravages
of the codling moth. I believe in
spraying for this pest; I believe in
doing the first spraying before the
calix cups close up. No other spray
ing can do as much good as the first

theory may not have sometimes been
successful and may be again in the
hands Of such careful man as Pro-
lessor Melander, but [ must confess
that with us, it has not been a sue
cess.
lam prepared to say that one spray
lug is not enough with us and then
go step further and say that any
number of sprayings is not enough.
[ do not want to be misunderstood at
this point. [ have no notion of Civ
| ing up spraying for the destruction Of
the cooling moth, but l am prepared
to say that with us we can not depend
on spraying alone whether performed
once or many times. in controlling
this worst of all insect pests.
The complaints of the ravages of
the codling moth are worse this year
/ in the Yakima Valley than l have ever
known before. With us can candid
ly say that we have never had as large
per cent of apples damaged by this
insect as we have had this season.
One reason for this is that we have
never had as small crop Of apples
since our trees came into bearing as
we have this year. 1t is easy to see
how this can be. The size of the
worm crop is not measured 4. by the
size of the apple crop. There are as
many worms with very light crop
as with very heavy crop. II there
are per cent of wormy apples when
the crop is heavy there will be % per
cent of wormy apples when the crop
is but one fifth as heavy. The light
ness of the crop this year accounts
for the many complaints as to the big
ness of the worm crop. One man
whose orchard is but few miles from
mine told me that 80 Ger cent Of his
Jonathans we're wormy. Ours were
not so bad as that but the loss was
heavy. The growers are in many
cases thoroughly aroused and are in
curing what they can do to lessen
this fearful loss.
In addition to spraying thoroughly
and early next spring there are two
things we intend to do. The first
thing we intend to do is to go over
our trees this winter or early in the
spring and kill every worm we can
| find. How can we find them? Re-
member that the worms do not winter
| in the apples unless in very rare cases.
On leaving the apples the worms seek
hiding place. When the apples are
yet on the trees, the worms crawl
down the limbs and trunk till hid
ing place is found. Frequently such
place is'found in the forks of the
tree. There you will often find lot
of rough bark and under that bark
you may find from one to dozen or
more worms. If there is rough bark
on the bodies Of the trees, there you
can find worms. A thorough search
ing of the forks and the bodies OF the
trees will reveal from ten to fifty
worms tucked away for the winter.
The chances are that for every worm
killed in this way we will save from
fen To fifty appIes in the next crop.
