Spray For COdIinl Moth.

The codling mott is by far
the most destructive of any of
the orchard pests of Idaho.
The adult is IN sshen gray
colored moth about a of an
inch across the expanded
wings, with wavy bands across
the front wings, and brown
tips. There are four stages
in the life history CT this
insect, namely adult or moth,
egg, pupa and larva.
CoNTRoL-The following
method of control has been
proven satisfactory. Begin
to apply the first spray when
90 per cent of the petals have
fallen or just before the calyx
lobes have closed. Use two
pounds Of paste or one pound
of powdered arsenate of lead,
to so gallons of water. Use
a 200 pound pressure in order
that the spray may be driven
into the calyx cup. The
second spray should be APP
piled about three weeks later,
or when the first eggs appear.
The time of the third spraying
can be determined by banding
the trees about the middle of
June and apply the spray
about twenty days after the
first larvae come down under
the bands. This will be about
the middle of August in this
locality.
The early spray is the most
important and the total num-
Der of sprays necessary will
depend upon the infection
that was found in previous
years, varieties of fruit, amount
of infected orchards in the
neighborhood and the effect
iveness of the early spray.

Who Knows?
(Goodwiu's Weekly !

With the world ahame and
this country shouldering arms
to bear the brunt Of the battle,
it would seem that there is no
time for thought beyond the
scope of the wars immediate
demands. But the minds of
men run ever to the future
and the prospects for a lasting
peace on earth present an all
absorbing speculation. When
peace comes, will it temper
the prejudices of the beliger-
ents, and will it be possible
for the world powers to ami
cably adjust their differences
and resolve themselves into a
happy concert of the nations ?
Or, on the other hand, will it
be found that the finer feel
ings of men have only been
scared in the crucible and that
the awful sacrifice was all in
vain? 1t is, indeed, a very
wonderful contemplation.
We are told that we are 90
ing to war ito make the world
safe for democracy" Perhaps
SO, but to be able to reconcile
ones self to the promise re-
quires the widest possible
sweep of the imagination. Byj
what unusual plan will this
most desirable object be con-
summated? When the lion
and the lamb finally lie down
together, will it be because
the whole world stands at at
tention with bayonets fixed, or
because the era of peace on
earth, good will to men, has
been ushered in?
International statesmen are
already suggesting the plan of
a confederation of world
powers. The proposal appeals
to the fancy, but its great
weakness lies in the frailty of
human nature. Nor is the
plan altogether original. The
great poet laureate of England
long ago presaged this world
war and foretold events with
starting precision, even to-
"the nations airy navies CRAP
ping in the central blue. "
He, too, pondered the out
come and ventured prophesyi

The war drum throbbed no longer,
and the battle iiIrs were furled.

alton OF the world.
