destructive insects are held in check
only by spraying during the dormant
period Of trees when stronger washes
may be used than when the trees are
In foliage. Many insects OF the orchard
spend the winter on the trees In the
egg, larval. or pupal stage. and their
destruction In the course Of pruning or
other orchard work is practicable and
is of much Importance in keeping them
reduced.
Orchard scale insects as a class are
best treated after the foliage has dropped
from the trees. This work may be done
In late fall, during the winter when
the temperature is above freezing or In
the spring before the buds swell to any
extent. Spraying Of apple. peach, pear
and other trees for the San Jose scale
with strong limesulphur or other suit
able wash is now very generally prac-
ticed by orchardists, and many persons
owning but small number Of fruit trees
in the yard also regularly spray the
trees for the control of this serious In
sect pest. Lime-sulphur concentrate Is
used in spraying for the San Jose scale
and may be purchased Of manufacturers
or made at home. The commercial ar
ticle usually has density Of $50 to
$40 as registered on a Baume hydrome-
ter, and in preparing the concentrate at
home effort should be made to secure
wash of about this density. Such con-
centrate is used at the rate Of part
to 8 or parts Of water. Only one
treatment each winter is necessary to
hold this pest in subsection, but the
application must be very thorough, coat
ing all parts Of the twigs, limbs and
branches. This work requires a spray '
pump, and these may now be obtained
for work on almost any scale, and range
in size from the so-called bucket pump
suitable for work on few trees In the
yard to the large gasoline-power outfits
employed in extensive orchards.
Certain other scaleinsect pests which
may be present on the trees, as the
cherry scale, oyster-shell scale, ETC., are
also pretty well held in check by this
annual treatment with limesulphur
wash. The treatment is also effective
against the pear-leaf blister mite. which
is universally present on pears and in
some localities Is a very serious apple
pest. Certain destructive apple plant lice
winter in the egg stage on the apple.
especially ON the newer growth, and
thorough lime-sulphur spraying for the
San Jose scale undoubtedly results In
the destruction of many Of these eggs,
though the treatment is not always SUI
ficient to obviate spraying after the In
sects have Matched and the foliage Is
putting out. In States, where the win
ters are not too rigorous, the woody
apple aphis often maintains itself in
colonies here and there on apple trees,
occurring more especially around wounds
where the thinner bark is exposed. The
sprayinR for the San Jose scale aids in

Fall Care of Orchards

In addition to routine dormant-tree
spraying much good work may be done
in the control Of orchard insects by op-
erations during the leafless period. the
codling moth, the cause of wormy ap-
pies, passes the winter in silken cocoons
under scales of bark. in crevices and In
knot holes on the trunks and larger
limbs of the apple. Old trees especially
should be thoroughly scraped with
dull hoe or similar instrument to de-
stroy the alternating codling-moth larva.
The apple-tree tent caterpillar winters
In the egg stage on various orchard
trees, as the apple and peach, and es-
pecially ON wild cherries growing along
fences or on waste land. The eggs are +,
placed in rather conspicuous dark-col-
ored belts or bands around the smaller
twigs. These are readily observed and
may be collected and destroyed without
much trouble during the work ofpruning
or at other times. Very effective work
in the collection of egg masses has al
ready been accomplished in regions
where this insect has been excessively
abundant. In some instances 1t will
be possible to enlist the interest OF
school children, as was done in Michi-
gan during the winter of 1914 Prizes
were offered for the greatest number
of, egg masses obtained, and the total
collected in this work amounted to sew
eral million.
The fall webworm winters In the pu-
pal stage on apple and various other
trees The fiimsy cocoon is easily rec
ognized from the hairs Of the caterpil-
lar mixed in with the loose silk. The
cocoons occur in all sorts OF sheltered
places, as In crevices, knot holes, under
bark scales, etc. They should also be
searched for in trash on the ground,
under boards, in rail fences, and in sim
liar situations.
Another insect of general feeding hab-
its is the white-marked tussock moth
which winters on fruit trees in the egg
stage. The eggs appear as a frOthy
mass and are usually deposited beside
the grayish silken cocoon from which
the wingless parent moth escapes. 1t
will be easy to collect and destroy these
pup@ and egg masses.
Throughout the Middle West, and to
a less extent elsewhere. the winter nests
of the leaf crumpler are conspicuous OBJ
jects on fruit trees, especially ounce,
pear. and apple. The larv@ winter In
tough, horn-shaped cases to which are
usually attached several dead leaves.
These nests should be removed and
burned to destroy the caterpillars with
in.
The work of the buffalo tree-hopper
usually attracts the attention Of the
orchardist, especially during pruning.
This insect punctures the young twigs
in the course Of its egg laying, the
scars later producing much deformed
and weakened branch. Care should be
taken to cut out these injured twigs,

NATIONAL LEAGUE
Fight Features Game

Chicago. September 15-A fist fight be- tween Umpire Byron and Red" Smith, third baseman of the Boston Braves, marked the final game of the year be- tween Chicago and Boston today. Chi cago won. 1 to O. At the conclusion of the game Smith rushed up to Byron and the arbiter walked to meet him. Both exchanged words and Byron lodged around several of those who had gath cred and lunged at Smith. He appar- entity made two swings and was rushing his man when big Bill Jones, tho Boston pitcher, put his arms about the umpire and lifted him to one side.
 Smith came back swinging wildly and Umpire Orth attempted to stop him. Smith was infuriated and seemed about to hit Orth when his teammates stepped Into the fray and escorted Smith to the clubhouse. The umpire then walked 10 the dressing room. Several hundred fans cheered Byron.
 Byron refused to comment on the bat tie. Several of those close to the pa rtici- pants said Smith was riding" Byron because of his decisions on ba'ls and strikes and that the two had engaged in strong personalities before coming to- gether. The Braves have fighting chance for the National league pena ant and already have three of their regulars out of the line-up. These are Schmidt, Maranville and Snodgrass.
 Todays game was won by Frank Schulte who drove liner over the screen in right field for the only run of the game. This lone tally, coupled with the mastery pitching of Phil Douglass, who pitched his first game for the locals since coming here from Brooklyn. were enough to win.

New York. September 15.-Further sales of refined sugar were reported for export today. the purchases of the British commission being estimated at about 10000 tons. The price today was said to have been not over 4.05c for granulated or about points under the price named in connection With yesterdays sale of 35.000 tons to the same buyers. Notwithstanding this ap- pearance of export interest, domestic business continued quiet. The list price was unchanged and buyers were reported to be holding off because of the unsettled condition of the raw su- gar market.
