CAL0S0MA BEETLE
FOE TO Gypsy MOTH
Insect Imported for the Purpose, Most
Successful in Attacking Pest

Washington, d. c., July 3l-Tht
calosoma beetle, which was introduced
into New England in order to combat
the gypsy moth, is declared by ento-
mologists in the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture to have firmly es-
tablished itself in its new environment
The first Of these green beetles was
sent from Europe in 1905. Between
then and 1910 little over 1000 Of the
insects were shipped to this country.
They have multiplied and spread with
extraordinary rapidity and are now
so abundant that many people in New
England are familiar with their ap-
pearance and habits.
Investigations show that these in
sects, both as beetles and as larvae,
consume enormous quantities of the
gipsy moth larvae. They are able to
climb the trees upon which their prey
are feeding and are most active during
the periods when the gypsy moths are
abundant. The calosoma beetle, in
fact, seems to be admirably adapted
in every way to destroying the gypsy
moth. 1t is not apparently injured
by the wilt disease which is so pre-
valent in its prey, and neither is it
APPARENTLY affected by the sprays used
to control the gypsy moth. AT the
present time it is regarded as the most
important of the natural enemies Of
this widespread pest. A new profess
sional paper of the United States De-
partment of Agriculture, Bulletin 251,
detailed description of the
calosoma beetle, its distribution, life
history and habits.

CRUSHED IN NEW CAR
Prominent Rutland Musician Meets
Death While Learning to Run Car

| Rutland, VT, August 2-Orris C
Ballou Of South Main street, promin'
ent member and former leader of the
Rutland City Band, was killed yester-
day afternoon when a new automobile
he had bought crashed through a
length of state road fence just west
of West Rutland and turning over
three times, landed right side up Sc
feet below the road in rock filled
meadow.
Roy Stetson, the chaffeur, employed
by the Premier garage, was badly in
jured, his head being cut in several
places and his back injured. He was
taken by automobile to his home. He
is expected to recover.
Mr.. Ballou remained in the car dur
ing the various fops taken by the ma
chine, but he died as soon as he was
moved to the bank over which the
car plunged. He remarked TO those
nearby when the spill took place that
he was fully to blame. There were no
injuries on his body, but his back was
broken when the weight Of the car
squeezed him against the steering
gear.
Mr.. Ballou bought the car Saturday
night. He was on his way to Lake
Bomoseen, where his wife, son and
daughter were in camp entertaining a
number of college friends Of the Bal
lou children.
Mr.. Ballou was learning to run the
machine, and he took the drivers seat
after passing West Rutland. The car
was bowling along at fair pace, but
when a point just west of the Whipple
Hollow crossing was reached he SEEM
ed to lose control and the car skidded
into the fence, sliding over the steep
embankment
The fence gave way like so much
paper, and the machine turned COM
pletely over three times finally land
ing right side up in the middle Of the
meadow. The machine was badly
damaged.
Mr.. Ballou had been employed at
the Howe Scale Works for many years
and he had done much orchestra work
in this section. He leaves, besides his
wife, three children.
Mr.. Ballou was born in Rome, N. Y,
Aug. 27, 1865. He was a member Of
the Musicians Union, Central lodge of
Masons, Davenport Chapter, Orion
Grotto, Eastern Star. He was the best
known clarinet player in Vermont.

PLANNING COMFORTS
FOR THE PUBLIC
State Fair Commission Making Ready
For This Years Event

White River Junction, August p
Patrons OF the Vermont State Fair
which will be held here Sept. Ia. 10,
1e, and II, will find that many changes
have taken place on the grounds since
they visited last years event. A new
and handsome administration building
has gone up at the entrance. This
structure was designed for the con-
venience OF patrons and the working
force of the fair. The convenience Of
purchasing tickets has been greatly
augmented by increasing the number
OF ticket windows, which occupy the
full length Of the building. The Sec
retary and his helpers are provided
with ample rooms and the commission
has a room for its meetings. The
entrance has been made attractive by
this building and the new fence which
extends from IT,
The New Public Service building is
another structure that will afford con-
venience to the public. This building
is now in course of erection and will
be completed before the opening day
Of the fair.
The Greater Vermont Association
will make a larger exhibit this year
than last. The display will be seen
under a roof instead Of under tents, a
special place being provided in one OF
the large exhibition buildings.
A large number and variety OF the
different makes of automobiles will be
shown by dealers. From the number
of applications already received there
are indications that the show of autos
will be the largest ever seen in New
England outside of the Boston Show.
The racing events this year will be
a big feature, the same liberal purses
being offered. Chester Pike will act
as starter, Stage attractions will be
of high order with big sensational
feature which will be announced later.

THE MILK INDUSTRY

Grade New England milk. Stand
ardize the product, so that the buyer
may be sure he is getting what he
asks for, and so that the seller may
command a price according to the
quality of his product.
Systematize by common sense effic-
iency methods the production, trans
portation, and marketing Of the prod
uct. TO the end that the business OF
producing and selling milk may be
placed on a sound business basis to
the benefit of every department OF
the industry and of the community as
whole
These, in brief, are the recommends
tions of the Boston Chamber Of Com
merce, in its report on the milk in
dustry to New England.
The prime essential emphasized in
the report is the securing Of first
class product-and not only from the
view point of public health, but also
from that Of commercial value and
profit to the producer, distributor and
consumer.
Six recommendations are made:
First, The establishment of stand
ardized system of milk grading and
labelling for all New England.
Second, The establishment Of coun-
try milk stations by producers in CO.
operation with local business men and
railroads, where milk may be graded
and processed and the surplus utilized
in the manufacture Of butter and
cheese.
Third, Bookkeeping by farmers for
keeping accurate records of production
costs and economizing farm opera
tions. A cooperative arrangement is
suggested.
Fourth, Reform Of present methods
of railroad transportation, abolishing
the leased car system and establishing
a uniform per-can rate.
Fifth, Improvement Of city distribu-
ton. Adoption Of the ticket system,
cost accounting methods, and the
study of common problems by dealers
in a cooperative organization.
Sixth, Advertisement Of the food
value OF milk and other improvements
in marketing the important factor OF
publicity.
ewerc the suggested reeommenda-
tions carried out" says the report,
"there is reason to hope for a substan-
tial incrcasein prosperity among New
England farmers and dealers, and for
securing TO our large consuming pop
ulation good, clean. fresh product
Of milk, cream and butter, at reason
able prices"
Urging, as the report does, greater
cooperation Of the various agencies
which have to do with producing and
supplying milk and milk products, il Is
significant that the report itself is
the result Of q whole-hearted cooper
alton.
