WAGES WAR ON BEETLE
District Sprays Elm Trees to
Protect the FoIiage-May
Need Second Bath.

Eighty-five hundred elm trees located
on the various thoreughfares of the
capital will have received before to-
night their annual baths of arsenate of
lead. which is the means adopted by the
District government of protecting them
against the ravages of the elm leaf
beetle. District Superintendent of Trees
and Parkings Trueman Lanham COM
menced early this year the attack on the
insect, which is one of the principal de-
stroyers OF Washington's shade. and in
dications are that every elm in the city
will have been sprayed by late this aft
ernoon.
According to Mr.. Lanham. the destruc-
tive parasite has appeared to a limited
extent SO far. and it is believed that the
coating of arsenate of lead given the
trees will make 1t difficult for 1t to de-
relop on an extensive scale.
II the first spraying is found to be in
sunlcient. however, the trees will be given
a second one.
The war on parasites which affect other
shade trees OF the capital probably will
not be commenced until June. Two high
power spraying machines are owned by
the District which will be used in pro-
tecting the trees against foliage destroy
ing insects of all kinds.
Although unfavorable weather was re-
sponsible for late start in planting new
trees this year. most of the trees. accord
ing to Supt. Isanham, are growing and it
VIII be necessary to replace but few of
them. The new trees include elms pin
and red oaks. Norway and sugar naples,
oriental planes, g1ngkos and other kinds.
