HOW TO PROTECT DRIED FRUIT.

WASHINGTON, d. c., Aug. t.
In this article Uncle Sam goes into
detail on ways you can protect your
dried fruits and vegetables and tells
you what dangers to look out for.
There are two kinds Of moths that
will attack them. They are more
likely to get into the fruit while it
is drying than after it is packed
away. This is particularly true of
drying in the sun.
One is the Indian meal moth. 1t
is the most destructive of the two.
1t is about three-eights of an inch
long and has a cloaked appearance,
one-third gray and the rest copper
brown.
The fig moth is about the same size
but all dark neutral gray.
Along with these usually comes a
minute. flattened Chocolate brown
beetle. 1t does considerable dam
age.
Their eggs hatch on the fruit in
the form of whitish or pinkish grub
like caterpillars. If these are stored
away with the fruit they will propo-
gate and produce thousands of their
kind in the storage bins.
Hence, pack your stuff in small
boxes to prevent the moths spread
ing if there are any in a particular
part of the product. Store in cool,
dry place.
In sun-drying, if the drying racks
are screened early in the evening and
ut night with the cheesecloth or fly
screen battened down and the dried
fruits and vegetables stored in tight
paper sacks in a cool place, no dan
ger need ordinarily be feared from
these insects.
AS an added precaution, the dried
product may be thruout itcmfwyppjp
product may be heated, before be-
ing packed, to 14O F, long enough to
allow the heat to penetrate thruout
it. This will kill the eggs of the in
sects. If you do this. store it prompt
ly, to prevent infestation.

.>ew Highway to La Platas.

New Highway to La Platas.
A section OF the La PlataS oil
great Importance to mining men,
,l0ckmen, tourists, local motorists
ND the forest service will be made
accessible by the construction OF the
lew county road which will connect
he county highway that terminates
1t the Charles Jones ranch AT Deep
creek with the governmen road along
Deep creek-Junction creek divide, a
distance Of five miles. The road camp
was established Monday and CON
struction work under the direction OF
". A. O'Brien will continue until
The stretch is completed. From a
scenic standpoint, the new road prom
.ses to rival any highway in the
county and possible in the entire se-.
zion. 1t will afford an opportunity
,or tourists and local autoists to mo-
sor thru the heart of the La Platas.
The road leads thru Ernest and Wild
Oat mesas where cool breezes, hun
dreds Of silver spruce and number
of living springs form veritable
campers paradise. Anticipating the
day when this section would be open
to the motorists the forest service
has been stocking upper junction
creek with thousands of small fry
from the Leadville hatchery every
year, and the sport for the anglers
is reported good. AS the new road
will connect with the Gro Fino trail
l.3 miles from Walls gulch, it will
greatly reduce the cost of transport
ing supplies to the mining and stock
camps in the section and the shipping
of ore to the outside. The forest ser
vice will greatly profit by the con
struction of the road, as it promises
TO facilitate administration, furnish
greater protection in case of forest
fire, by making it possible to rush
help to the scene, and it will make
accessible between 100000 and 3d.
100000 feet of merchantable timber
heretofore useless. Now that our Sec
tion is coming into its own as an
ideal summer playground for the
tourists, the recreation feature alone
is worth the entire sum, it will cost
for construction.
