RABBITS AND MICE INJURING
TREES

Much injury is annually caused by
mice and rabbits which eat the bark
from the trunks of young fruit trees.
in the orchards of the State during
the time snow covers the ground in
winter. The following letter from
Prof. Surface. Economic Zoologist, to
a correspondent, on this subject, may
be found of use to others:
Replying to your letter asking
for information concerning the best
wash to put on your trees to protect
them from mice and rabbits / can
say that there is nothing better than
the lime-sulfur solution, boiled with
the sediment in it, and applied with a
brush, or with a spray pump by re-
moving the nozzle from the end of
the extension rod, and forcing the
liquid out in a jet directly over the
trunk of the tree. For this purpose
| prefer the old-fashioned 17-22-5e
home boiled formula, because of the
sediment that is thus left, and which
becomes important for protection. By
this formula l mean, boiling one
hour, seventeen pounds of sulfur
and twenty-five of line, in enough
water to boil it, and afterward add
ing water to make fifty gallons. This
as a spray formula has been aban-
doned for the Cordley formula for
making concentrated lime-sulfur So
luton
The concentrated formula consists
of boiling two pounds of finely di-
vided sulfur of any commercial kind
with one pound of good fresh quick
lime of any kind, for one hour, in
one gallon of water This is to be
strained and stored as long as de-
sired, and when used, add sever
times its bulk of water. The ad-
vantage of the new formula is the
absence of sediment, and that it can
be stored without crystallization
" In treating your trees to prevent
mice and rabbits you need the sedi-
ment present, but the old formula
should be used at once after making
it. With the new formula it can be
stored as long as you wish
proved three years ago that
trees could be protected from borers,
mice and rabbits by painting, wash
ing or spraying them twice per year,
viz, the first of June and the first of
December or January, with this ma
terial. If it should wash off the
trunks of the trees, so that there will
be evidence of mice or rabbits attack
ing them during the winter, make
another application at once. In fact,
almost any combination of lime and
surfur; boiled together for a short
time, applied to the trees, will pre-
vent injury by mice and rabbits, and
will destroy such insects and dis
ease germs as it touches, and will
not, injure the trees

CRIMINAL CARELESSNESS.

1t is not often that one gunshot of
a careless hunter has such terrible
results as in the case of the New
Jersey farmer who killed two men
and seriously wounded another at
the beginning of the deer hunting
season. On the other hand, hunting
fatalities are frequent and seem to
be getting more so. DR.. T. S. Pal
mer, chief of a bureau of the United
States Biological Survey, which has
kept a record of such accidents for
three years, points out that last year
more than $50 persons were killed
in hunting accidents larger num-
Der than that recorded for 1909,
while that, in turn, was so per cent.
larger than the fatality list for 1908.
So far this year AZ deaths have been
recorded-15 in Michigan and in
New York, Washington and New
Jersey competing for third place in
the death roll, with three fatalities
each.
Such accidents are fewest, Dr.
Palmer says, in those states where
there is a penalty for killing does.
That is, where the hunter becomes
subject to money penalty for fail
ing to distinguish between the buck
and the doe he exercises some fore
thought and care before blazing
away at the first moving object
which he sees. This annual loss of
life is terrible commentary on the
recklessness of the hunters who pre-
fer to take the chance of shooting a
deer rather than to make certain
that the supposed deer is not a fell
low sportsman. Nine out of ten of
such accidents are caused by nothing
but carelessness-she criminal
carelessness. Ordinarily the person
responsible for the fatality escapes,
the prosecuting officials and the pub
lie taking the charitable view that
his sense of responsibility is an all
sufficient punishment. There is no
good reason for continuing to exer-
else such charity.

CARBOLIC ACID FOR SCALE.

1t is quite remarkable to note the
many new so-called remedies propos-
ed and exploited for the San Jose
scale. Among these is what is
known as the g Carbolic Acid cure"
Professor Surface in his reply to a
correspondent recently characterizes
this as rank fraud" and relegates
it to the same class as the Scale
poison and tree dope" now on the
market.
Replying to your letter concern
ing the painting of your trees with
crude carbolic acid for scale, | beg to
say that it will do no good whatever.
1t is strange that people will continue
to apply such fake remedies to their
trees, and doubtless lose their trees
This is not quite as bad as the So
called tree fertilizer and scale
DOPE which is to be put into a hole
under the bark of the tree. | re-
gard this as a rank fraud, and real
injury to the tree.
The crude carbolic acid will not
hurt the tree much, and will kill
those San Jose scale that it touches,
but will injure no others. 1t is by
far better to spray the trees with the
boiled lime-sulfur solution, either
homemade or commercial, doing this
at any time when the leaves are off.
For only few cents per gallon you
can make up spray solution for
yourself, and will find it to be eff
fective in destroying the scale and
certain other insects with which it
comes in contact, and it also destroys
disease germs, and acts as tonic on
the tree.
"The amount of pruning for your
newly planted trees depends upon the
amount of growth they have made.
As rule, you need prune them only
enough to shape the heads properly.
Prune to an outer bud to spread the
head of the tree and remove the CEN
trail stems that would send them
high in the middle"

EARTHWORMs ON ROOFS.

A nurseryman of eastern Pennsyl-
vania writes to H. A. Surface, of the
State Department of Agriculture, ask
ing where the earthworms appearing
on his roof after a rain, come from,
and suspecting that they are rained
from the clouds. This the Professor
explains is impossible, writing as fol-
lows in his reply:
1T is a question as to where the
earthworms come from on the roof
of building after a heavy rain, and
this is as yet unsettled. 1t is COM
monty believed that they rained
down, but scientists do not accept
this view. They explain it by say
ing that they have been able to
crawl up cracks of the building.
The earthworm lays eggs and
matches from an egg, and grows by
living in the soil, feeding upon Or
ganic material there. 1t eats vege-
tation, and often acts as a cutworm.
Its large holes in the ground are
easily filled by water and it is quick
ly drowned out, and this accounts
for their very ready appearance af-
ter the beginning of a rainfall As
they are seen crawling over walks
and in roadways they have but re-
Gently come from their subterranean
abode, and this really is no evidence
that they fell with the rain.
The earthworm does a great deal
of good by finely pulverizing the soil,
and also boring in it, permitting air
and moisture to enter readily and
facilitating the chemical changes of
forming plant food. On the other
hand, they are often nuisance by
cutting and pulling down plants in
gardens, and also by forming little
mounds of castings on exposed
ground They can be killed by soak
ing the ground with salt water. 1t
need not be necessary to make this
strong enough to kill the vegetation
growing there. Very strong salt
brine will have this result unless
weakened" f."

THE GOVERNOR ONCE A PITCHER

The Governor of Pennsylvania was
once professional pitcher. A fam
Gus fielder on Anson's team is now
succeeding conspicuously as the Rev.
William Sunday, revivalist. A. G.
Spaulding failed in his attempt to get
into the United States Senate, but
he and George Wright acquired
fame in business after they left the
diamond Pop Arson entered poll
tics, where he did none too well.
Many leading players became owners
or managers, like Comiskey, Mack,
McGraw, Hanlon, Jennings and
Griffith. One successful pitcher is
now advertising manager for pub
lication frequently known as The
National Weekly" If college
education is worth as much as it is
supposed to be, the base ball experts
of to-day ought to do better in after
life than those of twenty or thirty
years ago. Johnny Ward used to
have his college origin held up as
something exceptional, and now
things have changed so much that
Connie Mack sends away the great
player Jackson because of lack of
education. Many of course, now, as
always, must pass into obscurity,
and some into poverty and hardship,
but that fate is only what befalls
many in every walk. Even Cobb in
a few years will have to show his
fitness for some other kind of work,
or take his place upon the toboggan.
a few, to be sure, are able to save
enough to live on comfortably, and
Wagner and Young intend to retire
to country life, as Overall did a
year ago. Not many can be famous
through their children, as Sid Far
rar is. VIII any go back to the oc-
cupations which they left? How
would King Cole like again to be a
barber, Smith a piano mover, Rucker
a printer, Fisher school teacher, or
Carey a student in divinity? A fair
portion at any rate will succeed.
Ask almost any college graduate,
however serious and intelligent,
whether he would be willing to give
a few years of his life to service in
the major leagues and he will an
swer yes.-Editorial in Golfers for
