To all Who are Interested.

The moth tina, produces the peach
borer will make her appearance dur
ing the next two or three weeks. As
soon as the mature moth is developed
she will start to lay her eggs for
the coming generation. These eggs
are laid on the trunk of the tree Just
above the ground. As soon as the
eggs hatch which will he about ten
days, the young larvae look for cracks
in the bark OF the tree where they can
start 10 work. The presence of the
borers is very easily detected by the
gummy frass gathering at the base of
the tree.
After the borers get start in the
tree there is no way to stop them
but to cut in the tree and get
out the worm Clarvae) however they
can be largely prevented by mounding
up the dirt around the base of the tree
in the early part of the summer and
by painting me tree trunks with
poisoned whitewash. The poisoned
whtewash is made by adding one Cd
pint of Crude Carbolic Acid to ten
gallons Of ordinary lime whitewash.
If the trees are thoroughly painted at
the base with this and the dirt well
mounded up around the base of the
trees there will be little danger from
these insects.
