SPRAY WEB WORMS WITH
ARSENICAL SOLUTION

During 1917 the fall vel worm was
unusually abundant in Louisiana, es.
peoially in the southern portion of the
state. In some sections 1t entirely
.defoliated pecan, pear, peach, persim'
mon, willow, and other trees growing
both in the woods and in cultivated
areas, besides causing injury to va
rious field and garden crops. Whether
the pest will be as injurious during
1918 remains to be seen, but the
worms were noted in their webs on
trees in the vicinity of Baton Rouge
early in April and what is apparently
the same insect has been reported
from ek awhere in the state. Destroy
ing these, the festshrood Of worms
to appear this year, means lessening
the damage that may be done by Ia
ter broods. They may be killed by
cutting the webs from the trees and
burning them, or torches may be used
to burn the webs and larvae as they
occur on the trees, or the worms may
be poisoned by spraying the foliage
on which they are feeding with an
arsenical, such as arsenate Of lead

"F'rench officers who have seen

that none of them excel or, in my
judgement, equal ]. Y. Sanders
in presenting this great question.
"Governor Sanders has for
years recognized the soundness of
prohibition arguments as indeed
have most Thoughtful men. In
1915 I heard him publicly an
nounce his convictions thereto.
He voted for the prohibi-
ton amendment in congress
and since for the submis-
sion Of the amendment to the
states for ratification, thereby
making available the strong arm
of the federal government for it's
enforcement. Sanders has bold.
ly and without reserve thrown
his great talents into the balance
in favor of this great cause.
And believe me, he is not done.
He will continue to wax stronger
and devote his splendid abilities
to the service of his people.
