In Judge Uhlir's court seventy to
eighty cases of domestic infelicity are
dealt with in one way or another
every day In the week.
To take care of the enormous mass
OF trouble, the judge rises at $3.50

1 a. m. Speaking practically all the
languages and dialects of southern
Europe, Judge Uhlir talks directly

The wasteful wife may be talked

The delinquent child may be saved
by kindness.
Divorce should be the last resort OF

where they may be easily scraped on
with hoe or some other sharp in
strument and destroyed. These eggs
should be carefully collected In the
spring and a summer collection should
also be made.
Next to destroying the eggs, the use
of arsenical sprays is the most efficient
means of preventing injury by this
pest More care in coating the under
sides of the leaves than Is usually
observed in the regular applications
of bordeaux mixture and poison that
are made preceding and at blossoming
time, would do much to prevent an
outbreak of this and other leaf-feed-
ing pests. However, If the caterpil-
lars are not discovered until they have
begun to eat the fruit, 1t is advisable
to use larger amounts of the poison
than is customary In spraying for the
coddling moth.
Precaution should be taken to coat
the fruit and both surfaces of the
leaves with the spraying mixture.
The foliage and fruit of small trees
of even occasional branches of large
trees that are being injured by the
caterpillars may De saved from
further loss by shaking. When the
branch is Jared the caterpillar sus-
ponds itself by strand of silk, and
will drop to the ground If the shaking
be continued. A padded mallet or
pole can be used to jar the branches.
and the insects, as they drop may be
caught on sheet or curculio catcher.
This is slow, tedious method OF
combating the pest, but by this
means further injury to the fruit crop
may often be prevented.
In conjunction with collecting the
egg masses or spraying, banding will
serve to protect the trees from rein
Hesitation by migrating caterpillars.
This is often desirable when there
are badly infested II trees in the i'm

made of strip of raw cotton or sticky
fly paper. The cotton should be tightly
sastened about the middle so that 1t
Is loose above and below. The barbed
hairs of the caterpillar become en-
tangled in the cotton fibers, and 1t is
unable to pass over the band. In Or

TRAINING TREES INTO SHAPE
More Advantageous Than Allowing It
to Grow Wild and Then Chop and
Saw Into Form Desired.

1t Is much better to train a tree
the shape it is wanted than to allow
1t to grow wild, then chop and saw
it into the desired shape
BY proper pinching of buds and
bending of limbs during the dormant
season, II the sprouts starting from
the body of the tree or along the
main branches are pinched when
they are three or four inches long
they will ordinarily form fruit spurs,
says Mirror and Farmer. Aim to get
more fruit, buds near the body of the
tree and along the larger limbs in.
stead of the branches As color is an
important factor, care should be ex-
ercised to keep the top open SO the
rays of the sun can reach to every
part at some portion of the day. To
accomplish this 1t may be well to do
some pruning when the tree is in full
leaf; cutting ten or even l5 per
cent OF the top away when the tree
is in full leaf will cause no serious
injury.
If the trees are carefully looked
over about three times during the
growing season, and the ends of
those shoots that are growing too
long are pinched off, the tree may be
kept to the desired shape. But where
shoot has been overlooked it is bet
ter to cut it out when found than
wait until winter. Negligence during
the growing season is about the only
logical reason for severe winter
pruning.
Severe pruning while the tree is in
dormant state stimulates more rap
i'd and abundant wood growth, about
four fifths of which will grow where
1t is not wanted, necessitating yet
more cutting the following season

be renewed from time to time as they
become soiled or matted by rain. The
bands should be employed during the
months of June, July and August.
The same measures that are recon-
mended for the treatmept OF this pest
in orchards are also applicable to the
treatment of shade trees. only here
more emphasis should be placed on
the value Of banding the trees and
collecting the egg masses. Spraying
shade trees Is not practicable for the
average property owner because the
trees are usually Of large size. Such
operations require special machinery
and men having considerable knowI-
edge OF spraying methods. Spraying
of shade trees Is not done to any
great extent except where the work is
directed by the municipal authorities.
However, 1t Is in the power of every
resident to completely protect his
trees by destroying the egg masses
and banding the trees to prevent re-
infestation by migrating caterpillars.
