President Wilson's Message to

upon automobile users and manufac-

tarily with the spirit of the message
of modifying the automobile through
Individual initiative" said j. N. Gum,
President of the United States Tire
Company.
Several weeks ago Colonel Samuel
+. Colt, President of the United States
Rubber Company, in an interview,
urged automobile owners of both pas
senger and commercial cars to use
their cars more and more to relieve
the transportation pressure on the
Nations railroads and merchants de-
livery service. Other leaders in the
country's business not alone those in
the automobile industry, have since
urged that this advice be followed. 1t
has met with unanimous approval.
individual economy should be
practiced to the end that no wastage
shall result. 1t is not necessary to as
sumo that National economy means
curtailing the use of automobiles.
''The natural function of the auto
mobile, both passenger and CONNER
cial, is the transportation of man and
merchandise for short hauls. If this
is realized, tremendous amount of
railroad mileage may be diverted from
short hauls to long hauls, and just
that much pressure on the railroads
transportation facilities relieved.
National economy means readjust-
n.ents, but not necessarily curtailment
of the markets for commercial and
passenger automobiles. Nor will it re-
duce the use of automobile tires or
ether accessories necessary to the eff
ficient operation of a motor car.
THE National need calls for con-
structive economy in the operation of
automobiles, but not in unthinking
curtailment-
'It is my firm belief that, when we
have satisfactorily ended this war, the
automobile and kindred industries will
find a market for all the goods that
they can produce. Many concerns are
being called upon by the government
for war products. This will spur these
manufacturers on to a use of their re-
naming facilities in even greater eff
ficiency than has ever been known
before, so that during and after the
war all Of their facilities will be re-

''In Sheboygan County is a small

WAY TO FIGHT
The GYPSY MOTH
is DESCRIBED
Where Only Few Egg Clust-
ers Are Present Hand
Method May be Employed

The methods to be used for control
ling the gypsy moth in orchards
should be determined largely by the
severity of the infestation. If only
few egg clusters are present in the
orchard, early spraying, such as is ap-
piled for the cooling moth after the
blossoms have fallen, will be found
useful, providing the amount of poison
used in increased to 10 pounds to 100
gallons of water. If the infestation
Is moro serious, a second spraying
early in June, using a similar amount
of poison, will be found very salts
factory. In cases where the infesta-
ton is severe it probably will be ne
cessary to creosote egg clusters in the
winter and spray in the spring if the
insect is to be controlled. In any case
thoroughness is a prime essential if
good results are to be secured
All poor or hollow trees should be
removed, and if badly infested wood
land is near by, the orchard trees
should be banded with the sticky
substance previously mentioned or
with tree handing material. Orchard
infestations can be managed by fol-
lowing up these methods, and it will
not require much additional expense
or a great deal of extra work to pro-
tect the trees. In making this state
ment it is assumed that the orchard
is being cared for by up-to-date
methods for protection from the cod
ling moth and other injurious insects
and diseases, and it is improbable that
these results can be brought about in
neglected orchards or where the own
ers do not practice the best horticul-
tural methods in handling their grow
ing trees.
