CROP PEST LETTER
BY Prof. j. G. Sanders, State Eco
nomic Zoologist.
PEACH LEAF CURL

T HE peach leaves all over the
state, where spraying has
Il not been properly and timely
applied, are curling up and maxi
ing blister-like growths. This is
caused by a fungus disease called
peach leaf curl, which in bad at
tacks ldefoliates the trees. Pre-
ventative measures only can be
applied.
To prevent damage by this dis
ease, spray the peach trees during
the dormant season with lime sui
phur wash, diluting the concen-
trated solution to test about A de-
grees Beaume, or 1.03 specific
gravity.
The best time to apply is in the
late fall or early winter while the
weather is still warm enough to
permit spraying. If delayed until
spring 1t frequently happens that
there is sufficient warm weather
during the winter to start the
buds to swelling. If this hap
pens the bud scales are separated,
permitting infection of the leaves
before they have emerged from
the buds. Once infected, no
amount of spraying will control
this disease.

THE United States does not wish

Il from Germany, Austria or Tur-
key a foot of land or a dollar
OF indemnity. We are in this war
partly, because 1t had become impos-
sible for high-minded nation long
er to submit to the intolerable out
RACES and injuries which for two
years we had suffered from Ger
many; and partly because it was
as 1t long had been-our clear duty
TO take active part in the war for
democracy against autocracy, for
right against wrong, for liberty
against militaristic tyranny, for the
cause of the free people against the
despotic and oligarchic government
which deny freedom to the peoples.
We must continue steadfastly in
the war until we gain peace by vic
tory; for no other peace justifies
war. The peace thus gained must be
the peace of Justice and of righteous
ness; for an unjust and unrighteous
peace is far worse than a just war.
The principle underlying the peace
should be the right of each people

THE old Liberty Bell rang again
at noon to-day.
1t was ringing for you.
From it's brazen throat 1t sent forth
nationwide call to service.
Buy a Liberty Bond" Buy a
Liberty Bond!"
That was the burden of its chime.
Have you responded?
What do you think of those Amer
leans who shirked when the Liberty
Bell first rang its challenge to op-
preston throughout the land?
Do you, who have not yet bought
bond, wish to be regarded by pos
terity as you regard the Tory slack
ers of 1875?
The lists close tomorrow.

Ger. The other day / bought cof-
fee. 1t was billed to me at the
price agreed, twenty-thre cents a

war tax" at one and a quarter
cents a pound. The dealers saw
that IL the war tax bill is not

fund this money. Have they any
right to collect war tax from me
before a war tax bill is adopted

Here and there both wholesale and
retail grocers are attempting, and in
some cases succeeding. in collecting
war tax" from their customers.
There is no ground for this. No
war tax" has as yet been imposed.
Money so collected will not go to
win the war; it will line the pockets
of unscrupulous merchants using
their country's misfortune as a
means of selfshly enriching them
selves.
The evil can be stopped by pur-
chasers absolutely refusing to pay
any such assessments-for that is all

The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1917-02-20

long ago foresaw the importance of this feature. The Krebs governor fills this field completely and effectually. It does all that the ordinary governor can do. and much that it is unable to do.
 These extraordinary features are patented, and no other truck is licens- ed to carry them.
 They are so important-so vital to efficiency and economy-that no pros pective buyer is warranted in making an investment along truck lines with out giving the Krebs governor the consideration it merits.
 The Krebs differs from all other governors now on the market, because it. governs at all speeds. That is so important a factor that itr full sig nif1cance is not immediately realized. It means that having KrebS gover- nor is like having a motor expert in charge of your throttle lever every second-leaving you nothing to do but to steer Other governors merely prevent car from being run at too high a speed. They are designed to prevent abuse on that score, and a good many of them do it.
 But with the Krebs the driver has TO control of the motor except through the governor. He simply sets the speed lever according to the speed he wishes to make, and the governor does the rest. This auto | matically and absolutely does two l things that are of the highest import ance to the man who pays the bills:
The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1917-02-20

First it ensures the driving of the truck at an economical rate of speed. with precisely the right amount of fuel, exactly supplied as needed.
 Secondly, the man in the office knows that the speed will be main tained throughout the trip.
 It is one of the notable features of the Krebs governed car that it's speed does not vary with grades or 1n- equalities in the roadway.
 If, for instance, Krebs truck were required to make a 3O-ni1e trip at ten miles an hour, it would make the trip in three hours, just as though the driver were running the miles with the aid of his watch.
 And in doing this there would be no racing or straining. Long hills or short ones would be negotiated as though an expert were at the wheel. Tn fact, few, if any experts are cap able of handling trucks motor as efficiently as thiss automatic device does the work. The mechanical operation of the Krebs- governor will commend itself to anyone who knows the first principles of motor control It opens the throttle as wide as need ed to maintain the required speed or hard pull, and closes it to prevent greater speed when the going is easy or when the clutch is released. While the throttle is open when the motor is started, there is no racing o1 of the engine, for the governor closes as soon as moderate speed is reached In other words, the full power of the
The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1917-02-20

makers abroad have been able to sup ply only part of the enormous de- mands that have been made upon them. The Krebs is built on high duty, substantial lines, and has a spe- cia1 type of governor that increases it's service while it cuts down main tenance costs. These are characteris- tics that appeal to owners everywhere. They are absolutely vital to the buy CTS over seas, who are often far away from repair shops and spare parts The distinctive Krebs features guar antee economy with efficiency, which means just as much to the user in America as in Ceylon.
 The Krebs is built to stay on the road--and does it.
 H. Goldman & Sons of '121 George street, New Haven, are state distribu- tors for Krebs Commercial cars and the fact that this firm, who have a reputation throughout New England for representing none but the best, is further endorsement of the good qualities of Kreb trucks if such en- dorsement Was required.
 It doesn't take business man long to realize that motor truck economy must begin with the truck itself; it must be built into it. He wants more than mechanical reliability; he wants some assurance that his investment will be cared for at least as carefully as the appliances in his shop or store are handled. Tn short, he wants a "governed'' truck, and in this respect he learns that the Krebs designers
The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1917-02-20

motor is always available to bring the truck to the speed at which the gov ernor is set. Study the Krebs from any angle, and you will have no difH- culty in discovering the keynote of it's design.
 You will find yourself saying: First of all-Reliability.'
 This impression will be abundant ly confirmed, as you analyze part by part, the essential features of Krebs construction. You will not find any thing freakish, or anything that smacks of striving for effect. The cast members are stronger than is possible in any other form of con- struction. They need greater strength than is required for the ordinary au- tomobile, because the commercial car is forever getting in and out of tight places while loading and unloading.
 Another desirable feature is the fact that this form of construction all lows quick taking down of the radia. ter. Remove six bolts and the trick is done. Repairs are almost never necessary, but if the unexpected should occur, the Krebs will be out of commission for the minimum length of time.
The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1917-02-20
IREB COMMERCIAL CARS HAVE
 MADE GOOD BEHIND WAR LINES
 AND IN PURSUITS OF PEACE
Built to Stay on the Road They Guarantee Efficiency With Economy to Their Users Everywhere Season of 1917 Brings Floods of New Orders From Buyers All Over the World.

Foremost among the industries that have shown the greatest development during the past two years stands the acommercial car. No other American product-if we except munitions-has shown SO great proportional in- crease. Vastly exceeding the wars demands for motor trucks-e enormous as that has been-is the imperative need for the commercial car in the pursuits of peace. There Is no bet ter barometer with which to mark the speeding up" in which the whole world has engaged.
 The Krebs, for instance. has had tome part in the Great War
 But that has been negligible as
The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1917-02-20

compared with the service it has rem dered to it's peaceful patrons outside the battle lines. The manufacturers, the merchants, the contractors anG
 the planters of Europe, Asia, Africa and the two Americas have revolu- tionized their transportation meth ods. They have bought more motor trucks in the last two years than they did in the ten that preceded them. Tn this worldwide demand the Krebs has been tested against commercial cars of every type and quality. The best evidence that the Krebs, has made good Is the flood of recorders that has resulted. It has been especially favored in foreign fields, as truck
The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1917-02-20

as a result of the general adoption \of the motorcycle by officers charged with the enforcement of the law. Constables, sheriffs, police officers and marshals are finding that the motorcycle is the best weapon for matching wits and skill against ban dits who are using automobiles. Gov. Mart G. Brumbaugh. of Pennsyl- 'vania is among prominent men who have come out strongly in favor of the use of motorcycles in running down these men and bringing, them to justice.
