PLUM BORDER
Feeds On Fruit Trees That
Have Been Injured

Washington, ID. c., July 20-The
American plum borer, an insect which
attacks impartially plum, cherry,
peach, and apple trees, has been found
by investigators of the u S. Depart
ment of Agriculture, to confine itself
entirely to those trees which have re-
ceived some previous injury 1t is, it
Is said, entirely unable to establish it.
self upon vigorous, healthy, uninjured
trees and for this reason, except in oc-
casional cases, is unlikely to become a
pest of more than ordinary import
ance. 1t is frequently found, however,
on apple trees which have suffered
from collar blight.
In order to prevent infestation by
the American plum borer professions
al paper of the U. S. Department of
Agriculture, Bulletin No. 261, recon-
mends the precaution of cutting away
the dead bark and painting the wound
ed area on all injured trees with any
non-injurious tree paint. After the
borer has once established itself the
cutting-out method is the only one that
can be followed. When the proper
conditions are present the plum borer
can do considerable damage, and it is
therefore advisable to take precautions
against it.
