GUARD AGAINST INSECT PEST
Practice Of Fall Flowing and Burning
All Rubbish VIII Lessen Num-
Der Of Harmful Bugs.

It Is much easier to ward Off an
attack of insects or to make condi.
tions unfavorable for their multiplied.
ton than to destroy them after they
are once In possession. Certain meth.
DDS Of control have long been recog.
nized among farmers and horticultur-
lists.
Control by cultural methods must
come first, for insecticides can only
stop an injury already begun. Insects
thrive on neglect multiply most rap
idly in land seldom or never cultivat.
ed, and winter over in rubbish, prun,
ings or the undisturbed soil where
they get their food. 1t is the neglect
ed farm, vineyard or orchard, filled
with weeds or wild growth, which is
certain to contain the greatest stock
Of insect enemies.
Thorough and constant culture, with
the removal and burning of rubbish
diseased fruit, etc, with the practice
of fall blowing, will almost certainly
lessen the number of destructive in
sects. Constant cropping of large
areas of land year after year to the
same staple Is largely responsible for
the excessive loss from insects in this
country as compared with Europe A
most valuable cultural plan, therefore,
Ia q system OF rotation of crops.

LOCATION FOR FRUIT GARDEN
Plant All Trees In Straight and Even
Rows-Wire Netting Affords Pro-
lection From Vermin.

The fruit garden may be adjoining
the vegetable garden, but should not
be part of it.
Plant all trees in straight, even
rows. Standard apple trees 40 feet
apart each way.
Standard pears rs feet apart each
way. Peaches and plums and morello
cherries 20 feet apart each way A
peach or sour cherry tree may be
planted IN between the rows of ap-
pies, as the apples will not shade
these trees for six or eight years.
After planting twoyear-old trees,
stake and tie the trees to the stakes.
To prevent injury to the trees, it is
we'll to run a piece of wire netting
around each tree and tie it securely to
the stakes. The wire netting should
be four feet in height. This will af-
ford protection from vermin and also
from careless cultivation.
Low growing vegetables may be
planted in between the rows of trees.
Give thorough culture throughout the
season. No grass or weeds should
be allowed to grow around the trees.
Keep the ground mellow.

Female Beetle Placing an Egg in Tree
Below Surface of Ground.

inches above the ground 1t is easier
to apply two or more coatings than to
try to put on more at one time than
will adhere firmly. The first coating
will harden very quickly and the sec
ond can be applied without loss of
time. Two coatings are generally suf-
ficient unless the bark is very rough.
But in any case thick uniform COW
ering is absolutely necessary for the
best results.
Borers are seldom uniformly distrib-
uted over an orchard. Small blocks
of trees here and there may be badly
infested, and the most of the orchard
comparatively free from the past. In
such cases it is not necessary to treat
all of the trees with asphaltum, but it
is necessary to examine them care
fully, for in no other way can the true
conditions be known.
A convenient way to handle the as
phaltum is to mount an iron kettle on
the running gear of an orchard truck
and suspend beneath it a sheet iron
apron as fire box. Keep hard as
phaltum in the kettle all the time, so
that the melted asphaltum will not get
too hot to carry in small containers,
and apply directly to the trees.

Spraying Machine.

automatic spraying machine shown in
the illustration is especially designed,
though the automatic idea will likely
be seen soon on larger sprayers. As
the sprayer is wheeled along it auto
matically pumps the material to be
sprayed through the hose line, and the
man wheeling the machine along like
a wheelbarrow can pass around tree
or bush, spraying 1t as he trundles the
barrow.

Frost Protection Pays.

Does frost protection pay? Judging
by the experience OF the citrus fruit
growers in California, 1t seems quite
apparent that it does, that 1t is one of
the greatest factors in assuring fruit
crop. and that while the expense of
equipping an orchard is considerable,
1t pays dividends that are almost fab
ulous.

Weli-known Spray.

Some people have been looking for
a better and cheaper spray than ar
senate Of lead and have been trying
arsenate Of zinc. 1t is advisable to go
a little slow in this matter because so
far arsenate of zinc has been found
to be much more dangerous to both
fruit and foliage and also fully as
costly Arsenate of lead has been
used for a long time. for its strength
and character is known to practically
everybody.

Retirement of Troops From Anzas and
suvla Bay Three Weeks Ago
Left No Strategic Advantage to
Retention of Peninsula.

London.-It is officially announced
that the complete evacuation Of the
Galilpoli peninsula has been success
fully carried out. The communication
issued Sunday evening says:
Gen. Sir Charles Monro reports
the complete evacuation of Gallipoli
has been successfully carried out.
"All the guns and howitzers were
got away, with the exception Of sew
enteen wornout guns, which were
blown up by us before leaving.
"Our casualties amounted to one
member Of the British rank and file
wounded.
General Monro states that the &C
complishment Of this difficult task
was due to Generals Birdwood anG
Davies, and invaluable assistance rem.
dered in an operation of the highest
difficulty by Admiral De Robeck and
the royal navy"
This news has been expected for
several days by the keener observers
OF the Near Eastern campaign, for the
retirement of the troops from Anzas
and Suvla bay three weeks ago left no
strategic advantage to the retention OF
the tip Of the peninsula, Neverthe-
less, the news will be received with
pang of regret by the people Of the
British Isles as well as the colonies.
Renewed activity of various kinds
noted by the Turks official statements
In the past few days has presumably
been in the nature of preparations for
the final act of the Dardanelles
tragedy.
