Warning to Orchardists

The Manzanula Sun OF last week
contains a warning to fruit grnwers OF
the Arkansas valley against the possi-
BILE approach OF the leaf roller, which
seems To be doing considerable dam
age to orchards around Canon City.
According to Fl. b. Dye, a Manzauola
citizen who recently returned from II
trip to Canon City, this pest, which is
said tn resemble the cOddling worm,
and which feeds on both the fruit and
the leaf. had totally destroyed some OF
the orchards and had attacked the
others. The trees appear like those iD
the dead OF winter and on examination
the leaves reveal mass OF the roller
worms feeding on its fibre. The
method OF prevention and extermin-
emulsion and insecticides applied with
high power spraying machines, and
those orchards whose owners have
been watchful are reported to be In
fair condition. Thus far something
like s2o, 900 has been expended In the
treatment.
Mr.. Dye further states that straw
berries now being shipped from the
Canon City district are infested with
the leaf rollers. and caution on the
part OF citizens and merchants, in the
shipment Of berries from that district,
is urged
The warning is timely In the Manz-
anola district, though not specially
applicable To this side Of the valley.

Seeing" men is an art It amounts
almost TO second sight. Often, In q
tusiness line" some man makes his
way mysteriously and rapidly to the
top, or near to It. He does not seem
to have greater trading ability than
many others. nor has he been favored
by a larger capital or more mag
netic personality. But he rises His
faculty of seeing" men has been the
magical force.
Seeing" men means recognizing,
perhaps under an unpromising ex-
terror, what q man really IL or may
grow into. and, attaching him to an
organization or staf. There are bust.
ness executives that are geniuses In
doing this. Their success is brought
about In great measure by the en-
cfency OF the body of men they have
picked in this way. 1t happens many
times that q captain Of affairs hunts

carelessly over. They could not "see."
1t is no trick at all to discover the

such man is unfaiAngly costly. What
he has done. moreover, is no positive
guarantee as to his future exploits.
