THE LEAF ROLLER PEST DIS
TRICT-
Petitions gor the ieaf-roller pest dis
trict in Canon City and Penrose have
been completed, approximately S5 per
cent OF the resident land owners of
the Canon City district and SS per
cent of the orchard men at Penrose
signing the petition. Only 81 per
cent of the resident land owners sig
natures is required by law.
The petitions were filed with, and
had the approval of the county com
missfoners at their last meeting. 1t
only remains for the state entomolo-
gist to Officially declare these sections
to be in the pest district for the leaf
roller. That will be done this week.
AT the commissioners last meeting
the means OF enforcing the law were
discussed with a committee of fruit
men, and George r. List, deputy state
pest inspector.
When these sections are declared a
pest district every land owner In these
sections will be notified in writing to
spray their fruit trees by April 10 OF
next year. II this notice Is not COM
piled with the fruit men lay them
selves liable to two penalties: one a
fine of from. $25 to $500: the other
their orchards will be sprayed and
the expense charged to the land in
taxes.
II is encouraging to know that the
pest district was supported by such a
large majority OF the fruit men. 1t
means that most of the orchards will
: bc sprayed. The commissioners have
already assured the fruit men that
they are ready to enforce the law on
those who do not spray.
II is felt by those who know best
the fruit conditions of the county
that compulsory spraying is necces-
sary to keep in check the ravages OF
the fruit tree leaf-rolier which threat
ems to wipe out the fruit industry In
this vicinity and whose damages this
year have caused thousands OF dollars
worth of damage to this years crop.
April 10. 1918. allows plenty OF time
for spraying. and also gives time to
take care OF those who do not spray.
Every fruit tree dead or alive that Is
known to be infested with the leaf
roller egg masses must be sprayed
No OF; can be obtained unless 1t is
ordered. and no oil can be assured OF
being delivered unless It is ordered
soon. Attend to the oil matter now.
The pest district was not formed
with carrying out the law for the
sake OF seeing 1t enforced. or OF hold
ing a big stick over the fruit men to
see that they spray their orchards.
| but 1t was formed for the purpose of
protecting the fruit industry OF the
valley. and to make fruit growing the
profitable business that II should be.
