GROWERS SHOULD SPRAY FOR
COOLING MOTH.
Mixture Should Be Applied Before
The Blossoms Fall.
T. B. SYMONS,
Maryland Agricultural College.

Maryland Agricultural College.
In spraying for the codling moth it
Is necessary to consider several facts.
First the insect causes injury by eat
Ing into the fruit, and rarely does the
spray come into actual contact with
the insect; therefore the so-called con-
tactsprays, such as are used for scale
Insects or plant lice should not be em-
ployed, but stomach pOisons, such as
Paris green, arsenate of lead or other
arsenicals, must be used. Second, the
insect enters the fruit usually within
IS hours after Matching. and is there
after beyond our reach, SO the spray
must be applied in time. Third, the
fact, to which attention has already
Deen called, that the Matching period
for the eggs of one brood extends over
considerable space of time; there
fore, to get the best results two or
more sprayings should be given
Fourth, in Maryland there are two
broods of the cooling moth, and to pre-
vent injury by the second brood larvae
one or more midsummer sprayings
may be applied. In spraying for first.
brood larvae it must be borne in mind
that they enter the fruit at the calyN,
therefore the spray must be applied
before the lobes of the calyX close
enough to exclude the spray. Fifth,
sprays followed Immediately by heavy
rains should be repeated. Sixth, spray
only with pump which will give good
pressure, not less than so pounds, and
more than 100 pounds Is much better,
so as to force the spray into the calyX.
DO not spray until nearly all the petals
have fallen from the blossoms on ac-
count of danger of injury to the BIOS
SONS and risk Of killing bees, which
are important agents of pollination.
Failure to observe these points cause
poor results from spraying, while prop
er attention given them should insure
an apple crop free from worm injury,
In many instances WE have secured
excellent results with only one thor
ough spraying applied when the bios
SONS fall, and for ordinary purposes
this spraying will be sufficient to in
sure from 80 to 95 per cent. good
apples.

TREES ALONG THE ROADSlDES
Many Organizations Have Promised
Their Aid to Provide Free Fruit
for the Weary Traveller.

Fresh fruit plucked from roadside
trees Is a pleasure travellers will be
able to enjoy several years hence,
when they stop for lunch In some
shady nook.
In many communities civic associa
lions, farmers organizations and hor
ticultural societies have promised
their aid to provide free roadside fruit
for the traveller.
This very pleasant idea was origi'
mated by a southern Missouri nursery,
which has placed $4,000 apple. peach,
pear, plum and cherry trees along the
side of the Missouri section of the
National Old Trails highway. The
fruit will be free to transcontinentd
motorists.

New Field for Women.

The opening Of new avenues OF
profitable endeavor for women Is
matter of considerable Importance,
and the Maxwell Motor company OF
New York is making an effort to util-
ize them as saleswomen, In a recent
communication the president of the
company says: Il believe that there
is room for women in the automobile
business. Women have proved to be
good saleswomen and demonstrators
in other lines. We believe that they
will be particularly successful with au'
tomobiles, and we are going to take
the trouble to find out whether we are
right or wrong"
She company has accordingly put
Mrs. Crystal Eastman Benedict In
charge of the saleswoman's bureau
and she reports that the women so far
employed are proving their value.

ROAD
BUILDING
MACHINE FOR ROAD BUILDING
Useful for Applying Hot sltuminous
Binder Under Pressure, Filling
Spaces Between Stones.

A recent addition to road building
equipment is gasoline driven ma
chine used for applying the hot blum
nous binder under pressure so that IT
will penetrate and fill the spaces be-
tween the stones, says Popular Me-
chanics. After the first course OF
stone is laid this machine Is run over
the roads, discharging the bituminous
binder through a series of vertical
pipes at the forward end. AS soon as
the binder has hardened, a second
course of stone is laid and rolled, the
rolling forcing the two courses into
one compact layer. The binder Is then
applied a second time, and the proc

ess is repeated until the road is COM
pleted. This process makes 1t posi-
BILE to build compact road with no
openings into which water can pene'
trate. The bituminous binder is car
ried in the large tank, which has
capacity of $50 gallons. 1t is heated
by steam coils in the tank, the steam
being supplied by a fash boiler which
is fired by fuel OIL Steam supplied by
this boiler is also used for running an
air compressor by which the binder is
forced into the spaces between the
stones.

S. S. BUCKLEY,

With the coming of warmer weather
there is increased danger OF attacks OF
hog cholera.
This disease is the greatest menace
to profitable hog raising in Maryland.
The losses from it have been esti-
mated to be about three hundred thou
sand dollars in Maryland annually.

be taken that they do not lay on too

freshen up rapidly whenever heavily
fed. The good dairy COW, however,
seldom gets too fat.
