NEW LEAF ROLLING PEST AND
HOW TO CONTROL IT.

Oregon Agricultural College, Cor
Wallis, Ore, Dec. 10.-As though
there we're not already enough pests
to plague the Oregon fruit grower. a
new species of harmful insects has
been recorded by Professor 81. r.
Wilson, Entomologist OF the Oregon
Agricultural College. 1t is the leaf
roller that is known to scientists as
Archips argysophilla. The larvae
was first observd by Professor Wilson
in 1911, but not until the present
season were all the stages studied
and connected.
'The insect has undoubtedly been
in Oregon for long period of years, :"
says Professor Wilson, land Is now

often destroying the tip OF a shoot.
AS the leaves unfold, each larva con-
fines itself to a single leaf, one side
of which It rolls and fastens down
with silken threads. This serves as
a nest. We have not observed them
feeding on the fruit, but from the
reports OF growers there seems little
doubt that they cause most Of such
fruit injury IN this state.
eggs are deposited anywhere on

over with a dark colored substance
that blends them with the bark, max
ing them almost indistinguishable.
The masses vary in number from

the egg stage lasts from June, when
they are deposited. until April or
May Of the following year.
"The larvae mature in the shells
sometime before they emerge, which

weather after the buds begin to open.
At the time OF Matching they measure
about one twentieth of an inch in

it having light green border. The
adjoining two thirds of the body is
dark green, the remainder yellowish

The last pro-legs and the last body

"In the pupa stage the insect
measures from three-eighths to one

Arsenical sprays are less valuable for

ADD LANDS TO RESERVATION.
Tracts in Virginia Purchased For
Watersheds

Washington, May e-Approximate-
lv $4,000 acres of mountain land in
Virginia, Tennessee, North Carolina,
and West Virginia have been ap-
proved for purchase by the National
Forest Reservation Commission. This
will make almost 100000 acres
bought by the government up to
date for the Appalachian and White
Mountain Forest Reservation.
The largest group of the tracts
comprises $500 acres in the Massa-
nutten region in Page, Warren and
Shenandoah counties, Virginia, the
present purchase practically rounding
out what the government needs in
that section. In the Potomac purch-
ase area, group of thirty-two tracts,
te.alling 32,660 acres in Frederick
and Shenandoah counties, Virginia,
was approved, about half which adjoins
lands already bought. In the Nan-
tahala purchase area, in Macon coun-
tv, North Carolina. 81 tracts, con-
tanning 5,465 acres, was approved,
filing out tracts previously purch-
ased there The only purchase in a
new area was in Unicoa county, Ten
nessee, where controi of the water
sheds, it is said, will benefit The Ten
nessee River. The six tracts bought
today contain 16,460 acres.
Money already has been apropri-
a;ed sufficient for the purchase of
about 100000 acres of Eastern
mountain land, although it is estl-
mated tha. eventually the purchase
needed to protect the Appalachian
and White Mountain watershed will
total about 100000 acres.

INCREASE IN HYDROPHOBIA.
Public Warned by State Board Of
Health TO be Careful About.
Dogs.

Richmond. Va, May S.-With nine
case of rabies under treatment in
the laboratory of the State Board of
Health and with frequent reports Of
dogs suspected of the disease the
State Board of Health anticipates a
widespread prevalence of mad ami
mails this summer, and has issued a
special warning on the subject.
Since the Board of Health under
took the free treatment of persons
who had been exposed to rabid ami
mails and could not procure treatment
a: the regular Pas:eur Institutes,
this aspect Of the States public
health work has grown rapidly, until
some cases are under treatment prac-
tically all the time. hile some of the
increase in cases treated by the
state is attributed by the health Off
cars to general understanding that
the State is doing this work, much
of the increase in rabies is thought
to be due to the public disregard of
repeated warnings. Where no prea-
cautions is taken il is pointed out,
there will be gradual increase in
the number of rabid animals, and a
consequent increase in the number of
persons bitten.
"The mere fact that rabies can be
prevented by treatment" the bulle-
| tin of the board states, SHOULD not
make the people of the state careless.
At the very least, a bite from rabid
animal involves the, expense of a
trip 10 Richmond, and board during
| Q three weeks stay. All of this can
be prevented by proper precautions.
The all impor:ont things to watch for
symptoms of sickness in the dogs,
ard to tie them up az the very first
evidence Of disease. Generally a
dog suffering from hydrophobia will
show signs of sickness before the
acute stages of the disease develops
and if he is then carefully tied where
he cannot escape, he will not be dan.
gerous. Unless the people are more
careful we may expect an increase
in hydrophobia in che state"
