BORER is INJURIOUS
TO ORCHARD TREES
Work of Insect Is Often Detected
During Pruning Operations
in Cold Weather.

The work of the fruit tree bark
beetle, or shot-hOle bOrer, is often first
detected on trees during pruning OPP
erationS in winter. Leonard HaSeman
of the Missouri College of Agriculture
recommends that steps be taken to
eliminate the pest as soon after it is
discovered as possible. The shot-h0le
borer as q rule attacks trees which
are in a state of decline from any
cause. 1t winters as grub in gal
leries just beneath the bark. Peach
trees attacked by this insect and which
will still have vitality to eXude gum at
the injured points may in some cases
be brought into condition by severe
pruning and an application, as the
buds swell in the spring, of an effec-
tive wash.
One gallon of commercial lime sui
phur to eight gallons of water as used
for the San Jose scale during the dor
mant season is quite effective. An oil
spray as recommended for the scale is
also beneficial. Stiff whitewash with
a pint of crude carbolic acid added to
each ten gallons is also used. These
washes may be applied as sprays be-
fore the buds open, but where it is
necessary to repeat the application af-

MAKES HOUSE OUT OF STRAW
Colorado Ranchman Builds Six-Foom
Residence at Cost Of 500,
Exclusive of Labor.

Bricks without straw are bad, pro-
verbally, but house made of straw
without bricks might seem worse than
one made of bricks without straw
Nevertheless, a Colorado ranchman
has built a siX-rOom residence of
straw, at cost of 1910, exclusive of
labor, and finds it warmer in winter
and cooler in summer than an old
fashioned log house or a modern brick
or concrete house.
The straw for this residence was
baled. The bales were laid as If they
were bricks or blocks of stone Wall
building with large and easily handled
units proved easy work compared with
handling large blocks of stone and
very fast work compared with brick
laying. The walls were coated with
cement inside and out. Pebbles were
added to the final outside coat. The
house presents the appearance of peb-
ble-cOvered concrete. 1t has plenty Of
windows and is well lighted and ven
tilated. Popular Mechanics Magazine,
which tells the tale of this unusual
house, predicts that it will last q long
time and prove exceptionally comfort
able in extreme Of winter and sum-
mer weather.

The fundamental economic principle
about hydraulic power is that every

dig up your coal or cut down your
wood it's fuel value remains, while in
the case of unusual water powers, the
water of the present runs to absolute
waste. The thing of vital Importance
to the country at the present time is
that all the sources of hydraulic pow
er, which are economically available,
should be brought quickly into. use so
as to give modern industry q fair
chance. The water which is not used
today is lost capital. We need water
power legislation which shall give en-
cOuragement toward the immediate de-
Yelopment of every horse power worth
the while, with provision to protect the
government in it's ownership, if you
like, by regulation of prices and by
limitation of charter rights, but still

This will cost very little but will

A few drops Of this new ether COM
pound applied directly upon a tender,
aching corn relieves the soreness in

callus, root and all, dries up and can
be lifted off with the fingers.
This new way to rid ones feet of
corns was introduced by a Cincinnati
man, who says that freezOne dries in
a moment, and simply shrivels up the
corn or callus without irritating the
surrounding skin.
