There is growing demand for

You cannot prune too much, but you

The disk is better than the pillow in

Spraying with lime sulphur this fall

Few people know how delicious a

1t is just as easy to have good pears

Yellow peaches are always in de-

There is shortage of all small

Ravaues of Pine Beetle.

A recent bulletin Of the bureau OF
entomology of the department of ag'
riculture calls attention to the raw
ages among pine trees of the south
ern pine beetle. Says the bulletins:
Its destructive work is indicated by
the fading greenish brown and red
dish brown foliage of patches of dying
young or old trees, and careful ex-
animation should show galleries in the
bark of the middle and upper portion
of the trunk of dying trees and marks
on the surface of the wood which
positively identify this insect as the
cause of the trouble"

PRUNE AND SPRAY IN WINTER
Unless There Are Large Number Of
Trees Warmer Weather OF Feb
ruary or March Will Do.

Pruning and spraying are the two
operations that can be successfully
carried on in midwinter says the Su
burban Life. The pruning OF all trees
can be done. but unless there is
large number the warmer weather OF
late February or early March Will
make the work less disagreable
Grapes, however, can be pruned to da'
vantage now, as the wounds will then
have become hardened before the SAP
begins to flow.
Spraying is important, for the San
Jose scale must be killed in order to
have perfect fruit; and then there are
other insects, such as the aphids,
which winter in the egg stage on the
bark. The same spray that kills the
San Jose scale will destroy these
eggs.
Brown-tail moths will be found in
what appear to be nothing but crum-
bled leaves. The tent caterpillar may
be found in the form of eggs, a mass
of them in brown. shiny mass encir-
cling the twigs of apple and other
trees. The white-marked tussock can
be told by it's frothy white covering;
these moths are particularly fond of
plum trees, but are often found on
other trees. Cut off the twigs hold
ing these insects.
If the rough bark of apple and other
trees is scraped with hoe or similar
tool, many insect eggs will be re-
moved. All prunings, scrapings and
insect cocoons should be burned.
Clean out thoroughly and plug with
cement any holes in the fruit trees.
If thoroughly cleaned, decay will be
stopped. and filling the holes will pre-
vent gypsy moths or other insects
from finding a home.
The meadow mice, which frequently
injure fruit trees so badly during the
winter by girdling them. burrow I'M
der the snow. If no protection has
been given the trees against them,
tramp the snow down hard about each
tree after each storm.
