The baskets will be prepared by the
Social Workers, a charitable organiza-

the deserving recipients Of charity
will result in the eatables being plac-

ated The charity workers of Baker
report less want and fewer destitute
people in the city than for several

SUCCESSFUL FIGHT AGAINST
COOLING MOTH; EXPERIMENTS
IN THE PECOS VALLEY

Washington, ID. c., May S.-Re-
cent Investigations carried out by the
department of agriculture in the Pc
cos Valley, New Mexico, show that
the codling moth can be as effective
ly controlled there as in any other
apple-growing region. In the past
there have been complaints that the
usual methods are not satisfactory in
the Pecos Valley as elsewhere. and
that in consequence a large part of
the crop was frequently found to be
unstable. In one case. however,
the investigators succeeded in OBJ
taining 1888 per cent sound fruit.
To obtain this result, the investlga-
tors sprayed the trees five times
with arsenate of lead. The oftener
the trees were treated, the greater
was the percentage of sound fruit
they discovered. but at what point
the increased value of the crop ceas-
ed to equal the increased expense
of treatment was not definitely de-
termined.
In conducting these experiments
an orchard at Roswell, N. NJ, was di-
vided into four parts, each of which
received different treatment One
was left entirely alone: the others
were sprayed three, four and five
times respectively. In each case the
first application consisted of solu-
tion of six pounds of arsenate of lead
to 200 gallons OF water. Sixteen and
a half gallons, distributed through
Bordeaux nozzles with pressure of
225 pounds, were used for each
three. For succeeding applications,
the strength of the solution was in
creased to eight pounds of arsenate
of lead to 200 gallons of water, and
Vermorel type nozzles with 200
pound pressure substituted for Bor-
deauz. On its second spraying each
tree received 13A gallons. 15% on
its third. II 4 on the fourth, and
1s on the fifth An inspection and
count of the fruit, through the sea-
son, showed the following signifl
cant results:
Unsprayed, 40,77 per cent sound
Sprayed three times. 95.13 per
cent sound fruit.
Sprayed four times, 9S.72 per cent
sound fruit.
Sprayed five times. $3.50 per cent
sound fruit.
In considering these figures 1t
should be remembered that the ap-
plcations were probably more thor
ouSh NHdh Tue pAhNtlNt VI
growers, and that this care is essen
tial to the best results.
The time of spraying is also of
great importance, for. when the trees
are unsprayed, 1t is found that more
than half of the larvae entered the
fruit through the calyx In New
Mexico the calyx lobes of the little
apples do not draw together for two
or three weeks after the petals fall
AS soon as the petals have fallen,
therefore, the trees should be
sprayed with great care and the
treatment repeated about two weeks
later. before the calyx cups are en-
tirely closed. Every effort should
be made to direct the spray straight
into the cups, an elbow or crook on
the end of the spraying rods being
used for this purpose. A tower is

Six or seven weeks after the sec
ond treatment the trees should be
sprayed again, hut this time the 10
liage and fruit should be covered as
uniformly as possible with the poi
son. If these three applications have
been properly and thoroughly made,
II will probably not be necessary to
repeat them, but If the codling moth
persists in its work in spite of them,
one or two further sprayings will
doubtless be useful
In regard to the kind of spray, II
viii be noted that the investigators
made no attempt to ascertain the
relative merits of the Bordeaux and
the Vermorel nozzles. Some author
tiles, however. believe that coarse
spray Is better for the first treat
ment Immediately after the falling
of the petals, and for this reason a
Bordeaux nozzle was employed at
that time. In the absence of definite
tests, it may be safer for growers to
do the same.
