Experts Give Method
Of Killing Fig Moth

Experts of the Department of Agricul-
ture have recommended to the Secre-
tary stringent methods for combating
the fig moth, and destroying this pest.
The moth has appeared in Washing
ton and in New York city; as far
south as New Orleans, and as far west
as Wichita, Kansas. ...
1t is particularly destructive, and un-
less eradicated will put many fig grow
ers out Of business. The methods of
prevention and destruction recon-
mended are:
Prompt disposal or destruction Of the
useless June fig crop.
Covering of fiss at night while on the
'eerghi."
Closely screening fig depots in the
interior.
Prompt delivery of the figs in the
'khans' after gathering.
Destruction OF worms in the "khans''
by sterilization"
Fumigation by means of carbon bisul-
Fumigation by hydrocyanic-acid gas.
Construction Of the "khans" in future

say, without an undue sppropriat ton Of
their time and attention.
Would Account to Congress.
Tho Commissioners would be account
able for all their acts as a public serv-
ice commission to Congress and the
courts. Such powers as they have now
with public, utilities corporations nre
conferred by Congress. but the Com
niissioners sa2 they are either insuf-
fcient or without proper provision for
penalty for failure to comply with their
requirements. For example, the street
nit schedules of the operations OF cars
to the Commissioners for approval, but
no penalty 10 provided. IL they disregard
the action taken by the Commissioners
on the schedules.
The examples of a number of States,
the Commissioners say, afford suffi-
cient reason for recommending such
legislation In the District.
In reference to the hearing which the
Commissioners will give on Tuesday to
the Retail Merchants Association, Com
missioner Rudolph said today that the
Commissioners are In favor of uni
versal transfers, and win gladly give
ear to any plan for securing the
adoption OF the system in Washington.

CAPT. OYSTER HOME
WITH APOLOGIES ON
BRINGING NO GAME
More or Less Gloom and
Mystery About Trip.
Blames His Leg.

captain OYSTER is back In Washing
ton. He did not meet Major Judson.
AZ ne had met the major he would have
shaken hands with him. There Is abso-
luteiy no hard feeling between the cap
tain and the Commissioner, 1t Is said.
1t was too wet to shoot two days OF
the trip.
That Is the sum total Of the informa-
ton about that hunting trip INDUCED
In by James f. oyster and two COM
panions. There was something uncanny
about the trip. The names of the two
companions are shrouded in mystery
What the captain shot is still more of q
mystery.
It was rumored the portly president Of
the Chamber of Commerce and Board
OF Education sat coyly on. a fence for
TWO days and shot--just two birds.
some say this Is a false construction on
Captain Oysters marksmansnip His
friends tried to suppress the report.
They said 1t would look bad for him. an
ardent supporter of high school rifle
practice, to come back with any such
record
Captain oyster was non-committal.
What did we get? Why, we got
wet" was the reply.
When shown report from Surveyor
Nd. c. Hazen, whose party reported four
dozen birds ana seventy-five rabbits, he
said.
''Of course, 1t wouldn't be fair to
compare US with that. Mr.. Hazen was
down there week"
1t was suggested a comparison might
be arrived at by averaging the days
records.
Il must be careful about giving ou,
any reports, now that this comparison
IL invited" said Captain Oyster.
But the rumor would not down that
two birds made the sum total of Cap
tain Oysters bag.
And, anyway, I have a game leg,
and couldn't walk around very much"
the captain added, apologetically.
