NOT COMING TO VERMONT
Experts Say That Seventeen Year Lo-
Gust VIII Not Visit Us

While the farmers and others
along the valley OF the Hudson river
and in parts of Connecticut as well
as in many other sections OF the coun
try. are viewing with CONSERVATION
the predicted appearance of the sew
enteen year locust. as the pest is
popularly known, 1t will comfort the
people of Vermont to know that there
| is little or no probability Of the in
sect's appearance in this state. AS
| far as can be learned now Vermont
| is to be free from pests this season
unless the gypsy moth should be in
troduced along the border from Mass
lachusetts or the San Jose scale,
which has been discovered in Brat
tleboro should spread.
Prof. NJ. b. Cummings of the State
Agricultural College stated yesterday
that, as soon as the weather permits,
he, with Commissioner of Agriculture
10. l.. Martin, will make a personal
inspection of the trees along the Mass
achusetts border to ascertain II the
gypsy moth has entered the state,
and II II has they will Immediately
take steps to stamp it out. The fear
expressed by the experts is that It
may get into the state by the intro
duction of nursery stock, and buyers
are urged to carefully inspect all ship
ments.
The San Jose scale is nearly deadly
to an orchard, sucking the life out of
tree and is hard to kill. A spray
is used for determination and Prof.
Cummings has recently returned from
a trip to- Brattleboro, where he In
spected the work. In bad cases the
trees are destroyed and il the own
ers do not do so, the officials now
have the authority from the state to
do it themselves. They now feel con
fident that a spread of the scale can
be prevented A few years ago the
pest appeared in the vicinity OF this
city but the infected shrubs were des-
troyed and the insect has not been
seen since.
The reason advanced for the prob
able non-appearance of the locust Is
that it has never bothered Vermont.
II is an insect that does not migrate
to any extent, but repeatedly appears
in the same locality. The bug lives
only six weeks and during that time
does not eat anything but makes
grooves in the twigs in which it lays
the eggs and then dies. The reason
for its appearance every II years Is
that it takes II years for the bug to
mature. The eggs fall from the
twigs on to the ground and burrow in
to it. They remain there for the II
years developing and living upon the
Juice of the roots, before they make
their appearance above ground. The
only means OF killing II off is the Eng
lish sparrow, which seems to have a
great hatred for the bug and attacks
it whenever seen. In a Brooklyn
park, where the bugs were very num-
erous the sparrows killed them off so
that the locusts did not make their
appearance for nearly so years.-Bur-
lington Free Press.

HORTICULTURAL SOCIETY
Eighth Annual Report ls an lnstrue-
tive Document

wv 1SSeHSHA
The eighth annual report of the
Vermont State Horticultural society
has been mailed. In many respects
this pamphlet is the most instructive
ever distributed by the society, and
now with renewed interest In horti-
culture, and especially In fruit grow
ing, this years report takes a signi-
fcant place among the educational
state papers.
The current report contains the pro-
ceedings of the 18th annual meeting,
gives in full the many valuable ad-
dresses OF experts In horticulture as
given at the meeting held in Brattle-
boro last November. The numerous
illustrations interspersed with the lee
lures adds much to the attractiveness
OF the report as well as to the expos
ition OF popular subjects.
The society has made rapid growth
during the past year, and the mem
bership has increased 80 per cent dur
ing the past II months At the pres
ent time the society rool includes
nearly all the progressive horticultur.
lists of the state.
There is much valuable reading in
the reports as the list of subjects and
authors listed below will attest;
New and Better Methods of Packing
and Marketing Apples, is presented
by DR.. Perry the president of the So
ciety. This touches one Of the vital
problems in New England horticul-
ture and should be read by every
earnest fruit grower in Vermont
DR.. G. ID. Jarvis OF Connecticut
contributes an exceedingly instruc-
tive paper on The Renovation of Neg
lected Apple Orchards. The condi-
tons. methods and general desirable
ity OF making the old orchard of value
to the owner is we'll discussed by the
author. Many illustrations accom-
pany this treatise.
Strawberry Culture in Vermont is
extensively discussed by e. S. Hal
lett, lecturer of the State Grange.
Next TO the apple, the strawberry is
the most important fruit grown in
Vermont Mr.. Hallett contributed
freely from his many years expert
ence, and his advice is sound at every
point
Arthur H. Hill, the successful or
chardist OF Isle La Motto presented
at length the problem of the com
mercial fruit grower OF the future.
Prof II. T. Fernald of Massachu-
sets, Dr. Charles Brooks of New
Hampshire state college, and DR. w.
Z. Britton OF New Haven, Conn, all
lectured on the insects and diseases
OF fruits and 1t is hardly necessary
to indicate the value of their prac-
teal instruction. Insects and dis
eases levy a heavy tax on Vermont
orchards, and there is need OF better
central measures.
What the Boston Market Wants, is
well told by Prof II. F. Hale OF Bos-
ton.
There are many other interesting
papers. such as Tree Surgery, The Elk
hibition of Fruits, and Principles of
Fruit Judging. All these subjects
are live ones in Vermont horticulture
Persons interested in this report,
may address their requests to the Sc
cretary of the Society, NJ. B. Cum
mings, Burlington, VT.

who always stood quietly on the
hearth rug there with his back to the

AERoPLANE SCENE
In THE Ispahan Rug" Wednesday,
April 5th

FNfiN NN''
Probably the most sensational fea-
ture ever produced in a college play
will be that of the great aeroplane
scene in The Ispahan Rug, four act
comedy presented by the University
OF Vermont Dramatics at the Benning
ton opera house Wednesday, April s.
The climax of one of the most thrill
ing and exciting stories ever portray
ed in a play of this kind has been
reached. An Ispahan Rug centuries
old and priceless in value is about to
plot has worked out to the point
where several different sets of would
be- thieves for as many different rea-
sons are about to steal the rug. Eve
lyn, the heroine of the piece, having
learned of this decides that this must
be prevented at any cost, and the
story Of the attempted robbery Sc.
cured for Marsden the Cub reporter
a young man in whom Evelyn is very
much interested Two OF the thieves
have come to the scene in an aero
plane. Dallas, friend Of Marsden,
offers to 80 for help in this aero
plane. It seems that he used to work
for Wilbur Wright and consequently
knows all about dying machines.
He takes Evelyn into this machine
with him, and the next scene shows
them a mile above the earth, flying
through the clouds at the rate of go
miles an hour This is positively an
original scene, a triumph of stage
craft and something never before at
tempted on the professional stage.

PALISADES AUTUMNAL
BEAUTY.
A Visitor Thinks in all His Travels
He has Never Seen our Woods
EQualled.

A gentleman who had travelled ex-
tensively and who is d great nature
lover, made the remark recently that
he had never seen anything like the
woods of Palsade in autumn.
In the far west" said he, there is
no autumnal beauty to compare with
what you have in the east. In the
middle west the trees are beautiful in
the fall of the year. but somehow the
wonderful flames and torches of color
40 not appear as you have them here
There are dashes of chrCnatic tints
and tones in your Palisade woods
that make marvellous appeal to the
nature-lover's heart You have the
brown of the chestnut, the russell of
the ash, the yellow of maple and
hickory, and those wonderful tongues
Of fire, the sumac. Dogwood, too.
adds much of the glory of your au-
tumns, so far as trees CO. but my idea
OF perfect mysticism in coloring is in
some of the oaks you have. | have
seen a small white oak glistening in
the sun with the splendor of a great
painting, while some of the red oaks
and pin oaks burst forth in such
bewllderlng tracery of melting tints
as to enthrall me with their beauty"
This is a deserved tribute, but to
the pictures in October may be added
the bountiful and beautiful display of
wild flora. This autumn especially
the purple aster and the feathery wild
phlox have made an eden of our
woods and the roadsides have been
bordered in blue like the heather of
canny Scotland The Union Church
has been very prettilv Ornamented
for several Sundays with flowers
mostly gathered from the woods, and
their beauty has been much com
mented on
:. And while specializing on these pro
l1flc and uncultivated beauties which
are offered by a bounteous nature
without price, Palisade also presents
a rare collection of beautiful gardens.
Some of them never looked so radiant
with color as this season, and as the
town grows the cultivation of gardens
becomes more and more matter Of
pride with everyone

An Initiation.

-Four freshies from the c. C. N. Y.
created no end of fun on the ferry
boat on the afternoon of October 2i.
They were being put through the
PAGES by some fraternity The leader
OF the quartette carried and blew
tin whistle, the next man worked
harmonica, the third beat a small toy
drum, while the fourth carried a 10
inch tin pan, which he hammered with
stick. Marching single file, with
very serious faces, the boys went all
over the boat creating no end of mer-
riment for the passengers. Two OF
the elite of the fraternity stood off
and saw to it that no breaks were
made. On the Jersey side the boys
were marched up the Palisades and all
through Palisade. One of them wore
