larly in summer and early fall vari-

leaves the fruit. passes into the ground
and finally transforms into a fly. The
fly is constantly sucking material from
the surface OF the apples. The flies
may be poisoned by applying "a mix

applied To the trees in a fine mist

forms a crust on the branches and
causes small red spots on the fruit. 1t

For nearly all fungous diseases
spray before rains, not after. When
spraying for insect pests alone, apply
the mixture after rains. Spray thor
oughly. Every leaf and fruit must be
coated in order To be protected. Time
illness and thoroughness are more i'm
portant factors i'm the control OF dis
eases and insect pests than are the
particular mixtures of poisons used.
Chewing insects are usually con-
trolled by applying to. their food pois-
ons such as paris green, arsentae OF
lead or hellebore. Sucking insects
cannot be reached in this way and
must be killed by a direct application
of contact insecticides such as soaps,
oils, or other substances. In fighting
sucking insects thorough and skillful
work is required, since every indica-
vidual insect must be hit by the spray;
while i'm the case of chewing insects
il is merely necessary TO apply the
poison thoroughly to the food-plant.
When solutions such as $3.50 are
specified the first two numbers rep
resent the proportion of the chemicals
used and the last number represents
the amount of water. For instance
Bordeaux 5-5-50 means pounds cop

SO gallons water.

Bud MOth.-The small brown cater
pillars with a black head devour the
leaves and flowers of the opening buds
in early spring. Make two applica-
lions of4 lbs arsentae of lead in 100
gal. water, the first when the leaf tips
appear and the second just before the
blossoms open. In cases where lime
sulphur is used just before the buds
open for scale or blister mite, arsenate
Of lead. 4 pounds TO 100 gallons may
be added and will help to control the

Canilerworm.-Thes caterpillars
are small measuring worms, or loop
ers, which defoliate the trees in May
and June. The female moths are
wingiess and in late fall or early
spring crawl up the trunk Of the trees
to lay their eggs on the branches.

Wants Appeal Dismissed

A motion to dismiss appeal in the
case of l.. c. Roeber against James
Boyle was filed in the Clerks Office
yesterday by plaintiff. Roeber claims
that the district court has no juris-
diction and that the so-called appeal
is not perfected in accordance with
statutes. The suit was brought in the
Justice court at Cherry Creek to col
lect 500 due on a promissory note
and defendant claims that the statute
of limitations applied.

BULGARIAN WRESTLER Is TAKEN
INTO CUSTODY AT SAN FRAN
CISCO FOR ISSUING CHECKS
THAT POSSESS No VALUE.

George Angelo. the Bulgarian
wrestler, was arrested in San Fran
cisco last Thursday night upon tele-
graphic instructions from Sheriff
Grain that the fugitive was wanted in
Ely on the charge of issuing worth
less checks aggregating 5000.
Deputy Sheriff George w. Jackson
went to San Francisco yesterday
morning to bring Angelo back to Ely
for trial. No difficulties are antici-
pated as Angelo has agreed to face
his accusers without the issuance of
extradition papers.
After he had gathered all the kale
that was available Angelo decided to
seek safety in flight, leaving Monday
morning for the coast. Sheriff Grain
was determined to apprehend Angelo.
Although the wrestler had reached
San Francisco before the messages
we're received by the police depart
ment, the officers had a good descrip-
ton of the missing man, and it was
not long before he was taken into
custody.
Chris Jordan. Greek grappler,
and Angelo attempted TO pull off sew
eral alleged wrestling matches during
the last three weeks, but the public
refused to fall for the bait that was
thrown out to them. 1t is claimed
that Jordan and Angelo pulled off
wrestling match at McGill for the
edification of a few friends. and that
certain Greek is $50 to the unde-
sirable as result of being on the in
side.
Angelo is said to have become in
volved in similar difficulties in Ogden
but managed to extricate himself
from the meshes of the law by max
ing good the worthless checks.

Two Injured in
Gas Explosion
WILLIAM M'kNIGHT AND GEORGE
BECKER RECEIVE WOUNDS
ABOUT HEAD AND FACE IN
ACCIDENT AT PLUMBING SHOP.

The top of what was believed to
be an empty distillate tank that had
been sent to the Becker plumbing es-
tabiishment on Aultman street for re-
pair was blown off yesterday morn
ing by force of a gas explosion.
painfully injuring William Mcknight
end George Becker. The cover went
crashing into the rafters. and the
windows in the front part of the
buildings we're wrecked.
Mcknight was an innocent particf-
pant In the accident which threaten
ed serious results to the persons in
the structure. He had casually drop
ped into the shop merely to inform
Becker that he desired some plumb
ing work done at his home on Cannon
street, but fingered too long. There
was considerable fine rust In the bot
tom of the tank, and Meningitis face
was perforated with the sharp parti-
cles.
1t Is indeed fortunate that he was
wearing glasses at the time as the
pulverized rust would probably have
blinded him. He was taken without
delay to the office of A. F. Adams
who dressed the wounds. Although
badly dlsfigured, the injuries he re-
ceived are not of a serious nature.
Becker was not as unfortunate.
He was struck behind the ear by the
top of the tank as it was on its
downward ascent after striking the
roof. 1t was necessary for DR.. r. II.
Richardson to take several stitches
! in the wound.
Henry Cox, an employe of the Ad-
ans McGill company, who had
brought four tanks to Becker's for
repair, was standing about two feet
away from the tank. but was unin-
jured.
Ernest Lindskog was in the build
ing a few minutes before the unfor-
tunate event occurred. and applying
the theory of Safety First" left the
building by the rear door He real
lied that if he remained around the
premises ill-luck would overtake
him
unmindful of the fact that a small
quantity of the explosive liquid still
remained in the drum, George Bee
ker attempted to use a gasoline torch
in heating the solder, and before be
had any premonition that anything
out of the ordinary was destined to
occur. a terrific roar preceded the
bursting of the half inch rivets, and
sending the top skyward.
The drums are used in carrying
distillate from Ely to the Cleveland
ranch in Spring valley, and 1t is be-
lieved that the gas was generated
through the small quantity of liquid
being exposed to the sun for several
+, days.
