TELLS HOW TO CONTROL
COLORADO POTATO BEETLE
One of the Worst Pests Has Become
Firmly Established in Eastern
Part of the State

Although the Colorado potato beetle
is so firmly established in Eastern
Washington as to leave no hope OF
it's possible determination, yet there
is the chance of keeping its ravages
down to minimum for some years to
come by immediate attention to the
fields where it already occurs. The
Washington Experiment station gives
the following information as to the
habits and control of this worst OF
potato insects. !.
The adult beetle, which is about
half an inch long, rounded, yellow IN
color, but striped with ten black lines,
masses the winter in the ground. When
the potato plants come up IN the
spring the beetles appear to feed on
the leaves and to lay eggs. The eggs
are placed in clusters on the under
side of the leaves and are conspicuous
nv their yellow color. In week small
! plump slugs hatch which feed on the
foliage for some three weeks, then
enter the ground to pupate and about
three weeks later emerge as adult
striped beetles.
A second generation follows the
same cycle of egg, grub, pupa and
adult. Although there is much over
tapping of the stages the first gener'
alton of grubs is most abundant dur
ing June and the second during Jul!
and August. It is in the grub STATE
that most of the damage is done ant
accordingly spraying with poison
should be given to ward off their feed
II ing. For the Palouse country it woul
II be advisable to give applications o
Il poison in the early part of June, Jul
/ and August, but there is no set tim
Il to spray and no set number OF appli
cations.
Either arsenate Of lead, one to tw
pounds to fifty gallons of water, {
Paris green, one-haf pound to fit
| gallons, will serve, but in the latte
II case care must be taken to keep tt
ii Paris Green we'll stirred while spra.
II ing. Gathering the adult beetles !
hand, especially in the early part
the season, will 60 long way towa'
| checking the insect.

THE PARCELS POST

Railroads are carrying all classes
Of mail under an old contract with
the government-and the heads of
these big corporations are sorry.
This feeling arises because of the
abuse by many shippers of the pro-
visions Of the parcels post law. Rail-
roads owe much Of their profit to the
haulage OF freight. Therefore no sur-
prise should be octasioned, as ex-
planned to Daily Mining & Finan-
cial Record representative by rail-
road official, when railroad managers
complain of incidents like the fol-
lowing:
A manufacturer of cement put up
a large quantity of his product in pack
ages weighing fifty pounds each and
shipped them via parcels post. Their
bulk was such that they comfortably
filled two freight cars, but the rail
road company got 10 pay fer haulage
except the pittarce due under its
binding contract with the govern
ment.
Another man-an enterprhsing fruit
grower on the western slope-con-
ceived the idea of shipping carload
and half of apples by means of
parcels post. He prepared item in
packages OF tie proper weight and
unloaded them on the railroad. They
were transported three hundred miles
by one line and a like distance by
another before tt ey reached their
destination. This meant money
loss to both of the carrying comIan-
les
One day recently, the Pennsylvan-
la railroad company hauled four
trains from New York to Chicago
filled solely with parcels pest mat
ter.
When the time arrives for negoti-
ating new contracts between the
railroads and the government, it is
safe to assume that the railroads will
services as mail carries. AS a con-
sequence, it is not unreasonable to
bear the additional charges thorgh
we presume first-class mail will have
an increase on letter postage. Sec
ond-class mail has stood substantial
rise in the past few years and hard
ly can be furtl er molested.
The parcels post law has been
great benefit to tire country and
strong methods 81 ould he adopted
to prevent an abuse of its provis-
ions.

WOULD LIFT EMBARGO

Washington, Jan. 12.-Notice has
been served uron the state depart
ment by the British government il
was learned today that the recent
notifications of tie embargo on tn,
expectation OF Australian wool would
be withdrawn if American merchants
persisted in their alleged practice of
exporting to Germany both wool and
woolen products manufactured in the
United States.
The British government it is sta
ted has received word which has led
it to the belief that simultaneously
with its announcement that wool
might be exported to lie United
States. New England merchants and
manufactures began exporting to
Germany which Britain looks upon as
an act OF bad faith towards itself
State department officials said to-
day the United States could not be
expected to interpose further object
ion to the Australian embargo if
American merchants continued to
seek to supply German markets with
woolen goods.
1t was pointed out that it is en-
tirely within the right of Great Brit
ain or any other government to con-
troll its export trade through embar-
goes such as have been laid on wool
and rubber. In the latter commodity
the same complaint had been made
by the British of large exports Of
rubber, both crude and manufactured
from America eitl er directly or in
directly to Germany and Austria at
a time when the American manufact-
urers were pleading there was a great
shortage Of rubber to meet the inter
nal demands of the United States.
The British government, in its reg
ulations, announces it is trying new
plan to prevent what it regards as
Illicit traffic in rubber and will close
ly observe it's workings.
The embargo upon Australian wool
expectation never was actually lifted
The colonial authorities simply an
nounced they were prepared to allow
individuals to ship wool to the United
States under special license in the
case OF each shipment. Consequent
ly it is entirely within the power of
the British officials to punish any
American manufacturers who violate
the terms of the agreement not to
re-ship wool or wooden products to
Germany by Withdrawing entirely the
license privilege and reestablishing
the embargo.
