AAO0J 1APAl -, LdSdt was lc~
vored for the first time in two
years with a farmers institute,
in which Prof. A. M. McOmie,
Superintendent Farmers Insti-
tutes, of the University of Ari-
zOna, and DR.. 0. c. Bartlett, As
sistant State Entomologist, de-
delivered most timely and in
structive lectures.
Prof. McOmie has pioneered
Institute work especially through
out the northern counties of Ari-
zona making the initial trip three
years ago. DR.. Bartlett carried
the work of the Commission of
Agriculture and Horticulture to
these mountain Businesses for
the first time. April 4, st. Johns
was visited, April 6, Snowflake,
April Z Taylor, and April 8
Pinedale. The trip also included
April 9, Showlow, and April 10.
Lakeside. 1t is a most encour-
aging fact to the lecturers and
a source of satisfaction to the
people of Apache and Navajo
counties to note the keen ap-
probation of the farmers for
these meetings. These towns
although somewhat isolated
abound with interest and beauty
and are peopled with the highest
type of American manhood. The
great pine forests, rugged noun
tains, and sharp clear atmosphere
is conducive to clean healthy cit
izenship.
At each town two lectures
were given by each speaker, at z
and 7:30 p. m. In every instance
large and enthusiastic audiences
attended the sessions. Demon
strations in spraying were con-
Quoted in the orchards by DIR.
Bartlett and pruning demonstra-
tions given by Prof. McOmie.
The lectures in the afternoon
were THE Home Orchard, F." by
Prof. McOmie and Control of
the Coddling Moth" by DR.. o.
C. Bartlett.
Prof. McOmie stated that every
home should produce it's own
supply of fruit. He gave clearly
correct methods of soil prepara-
tion, proper nursery stock selec-
ton, how to plant, prune, cult
vate, irrigate or dry farm the
trees. He gave a list of varie-
ties of fruits and berries that
will grow under prevailing con-
ditions, and furnish the home
with fruit over a long period OF
the season. He stated that un-
der present transportation con-
ditions commercial orchards are
not advisable in these districts,
but that the country is we'll suit
ed to the growth of all classes OF
decidous fruits.
DR.. Bartlett explained care
fully the processes of spraying
for the coddling moth. He gave

the life history of the insect
when it attacks the apple, num-
Der of sprayings necessary, pois-
ons used and spraying apparatus
necessary. He stated that 95 per
cent of the worms may be killed
if the directions are carefully
followed. He also emphasized
the necessity of proper pruning
and cultural methods with the
trees as supplementary helps and
-preventatives of insect infesta-
ton. This lecture was especially
valuable, since the coddling moth
lis not SO bad but that it may be
controlled here. He advised three
sprayings.
The evening sessions were oc-
cupied with a lecture on DRY
Farming" and one on "Insecti-
cides.
Prof. McOmie. in charge of
dry farming throughout the state,
discussed the proper methods of
soil management for this section.
He emphasized the necessity of
deep fall plowing, summer fall
lowing, proper crop selection,
thin seeding and persistent cul-
tivation. He explained the
method of cultivation and use of
the pit and above ground silos,
bearing heavily on the use of the
corn and sorghum crops grown.
Every dry farmer he said should
keep livestock, grazing them on
the ranges when the feed is
plentiful and feeding them the
tansilage during the periods of
scarcity.
The farmers are ready to build
silos and this lecture will nc
doubt serve as a stimulus for
their construction.
DR.. Bartlett defined the two
classes of insects those that have
sucking mouth parts, giving the
plants they attack and the pro-
per poisons for each. He recon.
mends Black Leaf 40 for al
sucking insects, as the plant lice,
and arsenate of lead for all bit.
ing insects, as the potato beetle
and coddling moth. He gave
treatments for the corn cut worm
bean lady bug, and ophids. Also
the right way to mix spray ma
terials and the apparatus nee
cessary to pumps, nozzles, etc.
In every place visited the
professors received hearty vel
comes with large audiences
They stated that the people Of
this district are more apprecia
tive of the Institute work thar

They left Lakeside Saturday
morning for Phoenix feeling
we'll pleased with the country
and its people. If anyone wish

ing dry farming or insects they
are urged to correspond with
these gentlemen at Phoenix.

WASHINGTON. d. c., Sept. 2s.
Washington society is much
more interested these days in ru-
mors of weddings than in rumors
of wars, for many of the best
known society girls at the capital
are to be brides before Thanks

One OF the first of the brides
elect to announce the date of her
wedding is Miss Mary McCauley,
who is to become the bride of
Lieut.. Herbert s. Howard of the
u. S. N. on November 3. The Me
Cauley family has been socially
prominent in Washington ever
since IL became the seat of gov
eminent, so naturally the McCau-
1ey-Howard wedding will be a
brilliant affair.
