Spraying For Cooling Moth.

Spraying For Cooling Moth.
In answer to a correspondent who
asks when it is necessary to spray for
the codling moth and whether spray
ing for the San Jose scale will hurt
trees already in bloom, Zoolog1st H. A.
Surface of the Pennsylvania depart
ment of agriculture says:
ut is always considered necessary to
spray all apple, pear and ounce trees
for this pest when they are bearing
fruit. If there is no fruit on your
trees there is no need to- spray for
codling moth. AS you doubtless know.
this Is the insect that makes wormy
apples. pears and ounces. Every good
fruit grower sprays for this pest, II
for no other. The first spraying is
made shortly after the petals or flow-
ers fall, and the second spraying Is
made about a month from that date.
The material that should be used is
one gallon and one quart Of strong
lime sulphur solution, either home
made or commercial, In %forty-nine gal
Ions of water, and to this Is added
either one pound of dry arsenate Of
lead or two pounds Of arsenate Of lead
paste. For the second spray use the
same material as for the first.
where you have much San jose
scale present 1t Is a good plan to wash
all the bark of trunks or twigs that
can be reached with a paint brush
dipped In very strong lime sulphur
solution or very strong thick soap so
luton, or spray the infested trees
when the young are crawling on the
bark with tobacco detection. kerosene
emulsion or soap solution. After the
leaves drop this fall spray again with
the strong lime sulphur solution"

quickly modifying his organization in
response to changed markets, but such
REIMBURSEMENT Is of great value to the
whole community. for such action in
time becomes corrective of the changed
condition from which it sprang. Let
us assume, for instance, that there Is
a community engaged largely in live
stock production and that through some
cause feed prices advance to such a
point that there is more money in SELL
ing the raw product than in feeding.
Under such conditions a large number
of farseeing farmers will quickly cur
tail their live stock industry and be-
come sellers of raw feed products.
This in turn has a tendency to reduce
feed prices and to increase the price
Of live stock products, thus bringing
about the former balance.

The growing strength of popular feel.

Premier May Have Resigned
For some time past there has been

head of the government, intended to
resign his post and thus making way

Is that the government win announce
