American Red Cross Plans to

in 1914.

Two hundred million Red Cross Christ
mas Seals are now being printed and DIS
tributed by the American Red Cross and
The National Association for the Study
and Prevention of tuberculosis. accord-
ing to a statement issued by the latter
organization today. The proceeds from
the sale Of these seals will go for the
fight against tuberculosis in the COM
munities where the seals are sold.
The organization of the Red Cross Seal
sale this year will take in every state
and territory of the United States. In
Guiding Hawaii. Porto Rico. and the
Canal Zone. BY December LIST, over 100000
workers. men. women and children. will
be engaged in the campaign
The sale in 1914 broke all previous rec
ords, totaling over 55,oOO,cOO seals. an in-
crease of q per cent. over 1913. After de-
Quoting all expenses, this left nearly
$500 900 for tuberculosis work in this coun-
try. The money has been and is being
expended by over 1000 different agencies
who benefited from the sale in amounts
ranging from 500 or less to over $4,000.
The American Red Cross announces that
1t will continue its previous successful
policy of charging only 10 per cent. or
the gross proceeds to state anti-tuber-
culoss associations, thereby encouraging
local work.

FALL PROTECTIVE WORK AGAINST
Gypsy and BR0WN-TAIL MOTHS
Effective Means of Reducing Further Damage
to Orchard and Forest By Gypsy and Brown
Tail Moths

ming the work a little in advance so that
the necessary amounts of fuel can be op-
tanned, the preferred food plants of these
insects reduced in number. and the condi-
ton of the woodlot improved.
The gypsy moth occurs In. the egg stage
during the winter. and much valuable
work can be done in bringing about It's
control by treating the egg masses with
creosote. applied with a brush. This de-
stroys the eggs so that the next brood OF
caterpillars is reduced.
For the information Of residents OF the
district infested by the gypsy moth ana
the Brown-tail moth. it should be SAID
that this area has been placed under
quarantine by the Federal Horticultural
Board and that nursery stock and living
plants can not be shipped outside the
area unless the trees or plants have
been examined by an authorized In
spector The same products. as well as
Christmas trees. forest products, and
stone and quarry products, can not De
shipped outside the area infested by the
gypsy moth unless they have been in
spected and certified to be free from this
insect. The purpose Of this quarantine Is
to prevent these insects from becoming
established in other parts of the United
States.
Webs of the brown-tail moth which are
present on the trees during the winter,
and egg clusters of the gypsy moth which
may be on trees. cordwood, lumber.
boxes, crates, or other containers which
are stored near infested trees. are likely
to be shipped long distances. For this
reason, all owners should be particularly
careful to keep their grounds free from
these insects, and. in case shipments or
any kind are to be made, to notify the
nearest inspector so that there will be
no delay in having the examination made
in order that the goods may go forward
without disappointment either to the
shipper or purchaser.
Gypsy moth or brown-tail moth infes-
tation should be treated with special care
on grounds from which wood or plant
products are to be shipped. The work on
these insects which is being carried on
by the Department is directed from the
branch office of the Bureau of Entomolo-
gy, 10 fremont street. Boston, Mass.

Washington, Sept. 29.-In the acres in
tested by the gypsy moth or the brown
tail moth, much effective work can be
done in the fall to reduce the damage
that these insects are likely to cause the
following year. according to entomologists
of the United States Department Of Agri-
culture. The caterpillars of the brown
tail moth spin a web in the fall which re-
mains on the tips of the twigs ana
branches during the winter. These webs
should be cut and burned so that In
jury will not be caused by the caterpil-
lars the following summer. Particular
attention should be given to webs of this
insect on trees which grow around dwell
ings or in orchards.
The apple, pear cherry, oak and willow
are among the plants which are favored
as food by the brown-tail moth cater
pillars. In order to minimize the dam
age which is likely to result, as much
time as possible should DE devoted to
cutting and burning worthless or seed
ling apple trees and wild cherry trees
and brush. If this is done along the
roadways and fences, the appearance OF
the region will be greatly improved.
Care should be taken to protect pine ana
other coniferous trees. and hickory and
ash should not be cut as they are not
favored for food either by the caterpil-
lars of the gypsy moth or by those OF the
brown-tail moth. A general cleanup
such as has been mentioned will greatly
assist in controlling this insect. The oak
is a favored food of the brown-tail moth
and of the gypsy moth. and wherever 1t
is possible to eliminate oaks less annoy
ance from these pests will be expert
enced
In cutting wood in the winter for the
purposes of fuel, the farmer would do
we'll to select and cut trees which are
favored as food by these insects. In this
way he will not only secure the fuel
which he desires, but will at the same
time decrease the food supply of the
pests mentioned. 1t is needless to say
that in cutting wood for fuel. all sickly
or diseased trees should be selected so
that the stand that remains will be
healthy and vigorous. Eacn owner must
make the selection for himself, but
great deal can be accomplished by plan
