New Orleans, Dec. 5.-With the FL
ing in the federal court here of So
suits against the American Sugar Re-
fining Company, asking $33,879,397
damages under the Sherman law, the
total number of cases brought here
within the last two weeks against the
big sugar corporation was increased
to 1870, seeking damages aggregating
more than $1O0,0OO,000.
The actions brought are almost
identical with the first suits filed two
weeks ago by Wogan Brothers, LA.
charging the American company with
being a monopoly and with having
manipulated the sugar markets to the
detriment of the complainants, all of
whom are II 1isiana sugar planters,
manufacture IS or dealers.
According to one of the lawyers in
terested in the litigation, the sudden
rush to file suits against the Ameri-
can company was due to the fact that
the statute of limitations was expect
ed to expire.

GERMAN EGG-LAYMG TESTS
Results Given OF Experiments Made
to Determine Effect Of Various
Meat Meals on Poultry.

Tests were made a short time since
in Germany to determine the effect OF
different meat meals on poultry. Dur
ing these experiments 1t was found
that the egg production ceased earlier
than with normal hens. Fish meal
was more favorable for egg produc.
ton than meat meal. The eggs were
Of poorer flavor than normal eggs,
and could not be preserved In the
usual way.
The meat meal increased the in
tensity Of the yellow color OF the yolk.
The flesh of the bircs fed meat meal
was normal as regards taste and
odor. though slightly changed in color,
melting point and fat, which we're
higher than normal, but lower than
normal with fish meal. When fed
cadaver meal the flesh OF the fowl
had a rancid taste, and whenever fed
should be free from fat as possible,
tuberculosis beef did not cause tuber-
culosis in the hens.

Ii Is estimated that the southern

or all the insects that infest and
prey upon the apple none is causing
greater loss and damage than the
cOdling moth, more famliarly known
as the apple worm" The actual loss
sustained by Kentucky fruit growers
Is hardly appreciated, as most of the
wormy fruit drops off prematurely,
and Is not observed, but II is safe TO
say that over fifty per cent of all the
apples raised In the state are infest-
ed with the larvae of the codling
moth.
The mature insect belongs to a class
Of insects commonly known as
millers. The moth is grayish brown
in appearance and usually flies at
night about the time the young fruit
Is forming. The female deposits her
eggs singly at the calyx end of the
fruit and on the nearby leaves and
branches. The individual egg upon
the leaf or fruit looks very much
like a small white blister and is small
er than the head OF a pin. The mum.
Der OF eggs laid by single female
ranges from sixty tc seventy. The eggs
hatch In from five to ten days after
they are laid. As coon as the worm
matches IL crawls to the nearest ap-
pie and usually eats its way in thru
The calyx or blossom end. After re-
naming in the apple from twenty to
twenty-five days the worm eats it's
way out through the side Of the ap-
PIE and builds a cocoon under a looss
strip Of bark o. crevice in the trunk.
In order to control this insect IL is
best to spray just after the blossoms
drop and before the calyx cup closes.
II the spraying is put off. the calyx
cup closes and It becomes impossible
to deposit any poison within il. The
calyx cup remains open from seven TO
ten days after the blossoms fall and
the spray may be applied during this
time. An effort should be made TO
spray Immediately after the petals fall
and not wait. as bad weather may
hinder one from spraying later on.

practically the only poisons used in
controlling the codling moth. Arsen-
ate OF lead is safer to use because OF
It's superior adheslveness and because
il is not as liable to burn the foliage.
10 get the best results one should
use three pounds OF arsenate of lead
