The codling moth, which is by far
the worst apple pest, may be quite
effectively combatted by thorough
spraying with some arsenical poison
just after the blossoms fall. Arsenate
Of lead used at the rate OF two pounds
to fifty gallons of water is giving bet
ter satisfaction than paris green be-
cause it adheres better and does not
injure the foliage
The moths emerge early and the
female soon begins to lay its eggs.
These are not as has been commonly
supposed upon the fruit, but largely
on the under side of the leaves. Care
full studies have shown that about
nineteen-twentieths of the eggs are
deposited upon the leaves, the balance
being upon the bark and fruit. The
earliest deposited eggs hatch in about
ten days. While the later ones take
only about half as long. AS soon as
the larva matches 1t begins TO mi
crate toward the fruit, and having
of least resistance, which in its imma.
ture stage of development is through
the calyx opening. A knowledge OF
the life history of this pest enables
the orchardist to spray his trees in
diligently. He knows that the weak
point of resistance is in the calyx or
blow end of the fruit. Here then is
the point of attack. If he can fill the
calyx end of each apple upon the tree
with poisonous spray, the most OF
the larvae will be destroyed before
they have an opportunity to gain ac-
cess to the interior structure of the
apple. Hence he should spray within
the first week or ten days after the
blossoms fall or before the calyx
closes up and the apple begins to
point downward The nozzle used
should throw the liquid with enough
force to drive the spray liquid into the
end of each apple. One thorough
spraying at this time has been found
to give over 80 per cent. Of worm free
apples. A second spraying three or
four weeks later is recommended. The
first spraying for cooling moth can be
combined with the second for apple
scab, by adding the arsenical poison
to the bordeaux mixture.
The curculio and apple maggot are
much more difficult pests to combat
Frequent and thorough sprayings has
demonstrated the possibility of very
largely controlling the injury caused
by the apple and plum curculio. Till
age and sunlight are two effective aids
in the suppression of the curculio, as
Is also the destruction Of all fallen
fruit
There is no known remedy for the
apple maggot. Preventive measures
such as the destruction OF all fallen
fruit are the only means OF suppress
sion that can be employed. or course
good tillage and judicious pruning and
spraying materially aid in lessening
the injury to the fruit. Arsenical
poisons are not effective.

bated by spraying with contact insec-
ticides. Kerosene emulsion, soap So

Ebert Hubbard, who says many
clever and forceful things, recently
uttered the following truth, which is
worth reading by any young man: If
you work for a man. in heavens name
work for him. If he pays you wages
that supply you bread and butter, work
for him; speak good Of him; stand by
him and the institution he represents.
If put to a pinch, an ounce of loyalty
is worth pound of cleverness. If
you must Willy, condemn and eternally
disparage, why resign your position and
when you are outside damn to your
hearts content. But so long as you
are part of the institution do not con-
denim it. If you do, you are loosening
the tendrils that hold you to the insti-
tuition and the first high wind that
comes along you may be uprooted and
blown away in the blizzard's track and
probably you may never know why. "

ITEMS OF INTEREST

Three Mill Tax Levy from General fund
will be Necessary to Meet Expenses
of State During Next two Years

Every farmer and every consumer in
the State of Washington is vitality in
terested in the protest which has gone
to Washington against removing the
duty on -four and at the same time
maintaining duty on wheat. The
protest was prepared at the instance
of the millers OF the state who believe
that the milling industry is seriously
threatened if congress puts through
the program as proposed. If Congress
proposes to remove the duty on -four
then according to this protest the duty
should be removed on wheat. 1t is
the contention of the millers that if
the finished product enters free of duty
and the raw product-wheat-is com
PEELED to pay a duty the farmers Of
Washington will not have the present
splendid market for their flour which
they enjoy at present, or which they
would enjoy if the duty on wheat were
removed. Canada can and does pro-
duce cheaper wheat than the United
States. II this wheat is ground into
flour and shipped into the U. S. free it
will cut seriously into the manufacture
of American flour. If, on the other
hand Canada wheat comes to the U. S.
free this hard wheat can be purchased
by the American miller and blended
with the Washington soft wheat, thus
producing flour in every way superior
to the hard wheat flour or the soft
wheat flour. Thus the consumer
would get better flour for his money,
the soft wheat of the Washington far
mer would continue in great demand
and the millers would be in position
to continue to operate their mills at
fair profit.

A three-mill tax levy from the gen
eral fund will be necessary to raise the
money to meet the expenses of the
state during the next two years and
this is on condition that the $638. 900
due to the general fund is paid back
by the capitol building fund. Such
is the estimate issued last week by the
state bureau of inspection, which shows
that the appropriations on the different
funds total 24,047, 144.70. The bu-
reau estimates that the indirect rev.
enues during the two years will amount
to little less $5,000,000. The highest
single revenue producer is the state
insurance commissioners office. which
is expected to turn in 100000 dur
ing this period. 1t is shown that the
total appropriations for roads will be
IS, 357, 699.72 and the five institutions
of higher education will spend $2,317,-
