WON THE TIMES PRIZE

The first prize in the Fl Paso Times subscription contest was won very handily by Mrs. Marion Becker of Morenci, who won out many thous- ands of votes ahead of the next com- petitor. It is not to be wondered at much tho, as from personal experience we have found out that a possible subscriber must be either exceedingly nimble on hisf eet or. overly smooth in the art of preyarication to escape her.

DAMAGE TO SOUTHERN TREES.
Insects and Their Relation to the
Dying of Chestnut Trees.

Washington, July 29.-Special:
The Importance of having the best
information that can be secured on
the subject Of insects in their rela-
ton to the chestnut tree led the
Secretary of Agriculture to project
an extensive investigation through
the branch Of forest insects Of the
Bureau Of Entomology.
General investigations since 1898
have shown that more than $50 spe-
cies OF insects inhabit the chestnut.
While all Of these are not destruct-
i've. some are especially so. One. the
so-called two-lined chestnut borer,
is directly responsible for the death
OF more timber, perhaps, than all the
others combined. This Is small
elongate beetle which flies in May
and June and deposits eggs on the
bark Of living and dying chestnuts,
oak, beech and ironwood In the Sou
thern, Middle and Eastern States.
The elongate, slender larvae mine in
the inner bark and outer wood in
Such manner as TO girdle the trees.
When they attain their full growth
they transform to the adult stage in
the outer wood. or bark, to emerge
the following spring and repeat the
process. investigations have shown
that 1t can be controlled by disDos-
ing Of the infested trees in such
manner as to destroy the bark on the
main trunks during the fall and
winter months.
The extensive dying Of the chest
nut In the Southern States during
the last century, where the chest
nut blight disease was not known to
occur, together with extensive inves-
In -
that there are a number of agencies
of destruction which must be inves-
tigated before the problem Of pro-
tecting the chestnut can be solved.
In some sections Of the South
where more than fifty years ago the
chestnut trees were abundant. very
few are present to-day. Observa-
tions by Dr.. A. d. Hopkins. in charge
OF forest insect investigations, dur
ing the past twenty years in the Ap-
palachlans, show a widespread death
OF both chestnut and chinquapin
during the period
In order that investigations may
be extended in all sections where
the chestnut grows, owners Of tim
Der should report to the Bureau of
Entomology as to the healthy or un-
healthy condition of their timber.
information Is especially desired
from localities representing the most
northern. western, southern and
southeastern parts OF its distribu-
ton, namely in the North from
Maine, New Hampshire and New
York; in the West from Michigan,
Ohio, Indiana, Kentucky and Ten
nessee; in the South from Missis-
sippi, Alabama and Georgia, and In
the Southeast from South Carolina,
North Carolina and Virginia.

a Singular Rescue.
(Christian Herald.)


The three-year-old child of Albert
Stepp, living two miles from Canton,
Texas, fell feet foremost in 13-
inch bored we'll 60 feet deep. BY the
use Of a mirror the child could be
seen, and the little fellow was con-
stantly crying and calling to his
grandpa to come and get him. The
grandparents and parents were wild
with excitement and overco ne with
grief at their inability to 'fford i'm
mediate succor. Forty O. fifty men
and women were soon Gathered, all
anxious to get loop over the child
to draw it out, but with no avail. A
negro boy II years old was let down
and, getting the child by the sleeve,
both we're drawn up halfway. The
sleeve gave way and the child fell
back to the bottom. All were hOr-
ror stricken for fear the fall would
certainly kill the child. Then they
tied rope to the leg Of the negro
boy and let him down head first He
put the loop OF a rope about the
child's body and then the two were
drawn out separately. The miracu-
lous part Of the incident is that the
child was only bruised little and
not seriously injured.

THE RED SPIDER.
He il a Nuisance to BE Eradicated
by Intelligent Effort.

..E
The following article Of Wilson P.
Gee, OF Clemson, will prove of value
to those who are interested and who
have not the information already:
Even now in some fields the red
spider Is beginning to do It's damage.
and this will become more evident
as our warmer and drier summer
weather comes on. This damage can
be recognized by the reddish discol-
Grafton OF the leaf of the plant in
tested, beginning at the base of the
leaf where the stem Is attached and
spreading out over the entire leaf
Different from the damage done by
what Is known as cotton rust" the
leaves affected by the red spider
red spider is not spider at all, but
little red mite, which cuts into the
leaf and sucks the sap out OF the
plant.
Infestation will be observed to be-
gin usually near the edge Of the field.
This is due to the fact that the spi-
ders pass through the winter on
green vegetation, such as we COM
monty find about the edges Of fields
and along ditch banks. When the
cotton has become well started, they
wander on to this and begin to
spread They lay numbers Of red
dish colored eggs on the under sur
face Of the leaf and spin over these
fine web to hold themselves to the
leaf while at work and to protect
their spinning. Various agencies,
such as the plow going through the
field, a stray dog, or the wind, dis
tribute the pests for distance often
of many yards.
From these facts 1t can be clearly
seen that good remedy for the red
spider Is a preventive one-to keep
down by fall turning Of the land and
| destroying the green weeds common
about the edges Of the field. The
next precaution to observe Is not to
let the pest get the start. Spray the
infested area with one per cent
lime-sulphur solution. Make up the
same kind of solution you used for
winter spray for the scale on your
peach and apple trees and dilute this
| about twelve times. If you do not
| recall how to make this solution,
full information will be furnished
upon request by the Division of En-
tomology, Clemson College, S. G..
If you have the commercial lime
sulphur solution dilute 80 parts of
water to l of the solution. Apply
this with a spray pump with vermo-
rol or misty nozzle producing fine
mist and get this to cover the under
side Of the leaves thoroughly.
Should a spray pump not be availa-
BILE use an old broom or something
| Of this type and attempt the same
| thing. If these steps are taken as
soon as the form begins to spread
it is a comparatively easy matter to
! control the pest, but If delayed it Is
| almost an impractical matter for a
farmer in his early season to treat
whole acre, even with good bar
rel spray pump. The red spider will
be noted as Of much more damage
during dry weather than when we
have plenty Of rain; and often,
though not always, a good heavy
shower Is better than any remedial
measure man can auply
