AT this opportune time Canada and

every disagreement settled by diplomacy

OTTAWA. Canada. June 12.-The bank
err as a man of peace and the interde-
pendence of capital and labor We're the
themes of George Z. Roberts. director of
the United States mint in an address
delivered today at the convention of the
New York States Bankers Association.
1T seems to me-, said Mr.. Roberts.
that of all people the bankers should
be foremost in a celebration of peace.
The banker knows better than any one
else how many are the ties of interest
that bind the modern nations together.
He knows better than any one else that
war is not only barbarous in it's cruel
ties, but barbarous in it's ignorance of
common interests.
NO nation liyeth to itself alone in
the twentieth century. The wealth or
the world is now common fund. There
is a reservoir III London, another in New
York. another in Montreal. and others
elsewhere. but they are all connected.
You cannot draw down the suppl yof
capital in one without affecting the sup
ply in all You cannot burn up. confis-
cate or destroy capital anywhere that
every nation in the civilized world does
not suffer loss. There isn't remote
district in Canada today where money
is not tight and enterprise in check be-
cause Of the war in the Bal kan states.

DAILY HINTS ON
FARM TOPICS
By K. A. Kirkpatrick
Peach Tree Borers.

Several parties have asked me-
lately what is the cause of the jelly
like or gluey masses that are found
on peach tree trunks. Sometimes
these are just at the surface Of the
ground, but occasionally they are
found farther up the trunk or in the
crotches of branches.
This trouble is caused by the
peach tree borer., This is the larva
Of a steely blue moth. Tho female
domen. 1t Is the most important in.
sect enemy of the peach tree. II
would probably be difficult to find q
peach tree in this part of the country
not more or less infested by 1t. The
eggs are laid on the bark Of the tree
near the ground. The larvae bore
downward in the bark of the trunk
just below the surface OF the ground,
Their burrows become filled by =
grmmy secretion Of the tree and this
material oozes out and forms q
method Of detecting the insects.
When full grown. the larvae comes
to the surface of the ground and
makes cocoon of borings fastened to-
gether with silk. The adult moth,
which somewhat resembles a wasp.
appears from May until October, but
most Of them come in the latter part
of June or early In July. There ID
single generation each year.
The only remedy known Is to dig
the borers out with q sharp knife.
Clean the soil away from the base OF
the trunks, scrape away the gummy
secretion and look for the little dark
ened spots or openings into the bark.
Then take a sharp knife and follow
up the burrows until the borer Is
found. This is q rather heroic treat
ment In case the tree Is badly infest.
ed. In such cases 1t is probably bet
ter to use q small wire, running 1t
into the soft spot or opening on the
bark and pushing 1t down along the
burrow. Secure a small amount OF
bi-sulphide of carbon at the drug
store. Fill small sewing machine
oil can and use 1t to squirt the ma.
terial into the opening made by the
wire. After the work has been COM
pleted, the soil should be placed back
about the base OF the trunk. To &C.
cure best results in this treatment,
the trees should be carefully watched
and the treatment taken up a. soon
as any trouble is noticed. II ono
leaves the borers until great masses
OF the gluey material appear, there Is
danger that the tree will be lost.
There is another one Of the peach
tree borers on the Pacific coast which
bores into the solid wood Of the tree.
1t Is much harder to remove, and 10
a more serious pest. It Is not found
in this community. The female adult
lacks the orange-rolored band found
on the abdomen OF the common
peach tree borer moth.

HORSE MARKET

Good sale this week, and right now
is the time to sell if you can spare the
horse.
AS a usual rule horse prices begin
to decline by the middle Of May or
just as soon as the heavy spring work
on the farm is finished. But this sea-
son owing to weather conditions the
surplus horses are still needed on the
farm and will be until the corn is
planted.
This causes light receipts of horses
at the markets and insures good prices
on big horses for a week or ten days
yet. But the drop will come sure, just
as quick as the corn Is in and the fell
low who sells ahead Of the rush will
get the benefit. The old story Of the
early bird" and the fish worm.
