THE SACKING OF THE ORCHARDS

The Sacking of he orchards will be.
gin in many sections of the United
States about the third week in May
not as the Huns did it in the fruit
lands of France, but 4 protective sack
ing, literally, with cheesecloth, against
another ruthless horde. towit, the II
year locust" This pest will occur
over 21 States. coming out perhaps
the last week in May. The injury
inflicted by it consists in splitting the
tender branches of trees for depositing
eggs. The greatest damage is to- very
young fruit trees. Expert advice has
usually been to defer the planting OF
young fruit trees until another season ;
but the United States Department of
Agriculture. realizes that to defer
planting, particularly where trees have
been bought and the ground prepared.
would entail considerable loss. There
fore the advice offered is, defer plant
ing until 1920 if feasible. Otherwise
put out the trees and protect them
with cheesecloth coverings Such pro
lection can be made practically abso-
lutte. The coverings need not be put
on until the insects have emerged from
the ground, when it can be determined
whether or not they are sufficiently
numerous To make covering of the
trees necessary. Once put on, the GOV
cringS should be allowed to remain
until the insects are gone The protec-
ton can be made practically absolute.
The cheeSecloth should be gathered
and tied in below the branches ami
extend upward TO COVER practically all
the foliage, being gathered in and tied
at the top in such manner as to leave
Il small cluster of leaves free This
method can be applied, If necessary,
to trees of last years planting. In
areas likely to be heavily infested
pruning should be postponed until the
insects have disappea AIRED when pains
should be AIKEN TO remove injured wood
and to reShape the tree where necesS-
airy.

IN those cities where the President has al
1 ready spoken. the response to his appeal
for an expression which will compel favorable
action by the Senate on the peace treaty has
been most gratifying. His audiences have
greeted him with marked enthusiasm and
by their unstintcd applause have indicated
plainly that they are with him heart and soul
for the ratification of the treaty it is
written. They want the treaty ratified, not
because they regard it perfect plan for
the adjustment of all controversies provo
catve OF war but rather because they ap-
prove ii as settlement which will termi-
nate the existing state OF war and provide
the machinery by which the possibility OF
future wars will be reduced to minimum.
AS they regard it, the plan provides a
means by which the nations solemnly cove
nant not to go to war for nine months after
a controversy becomes acute and under that
covenant it is recognized that the machinery
OF the league can, in the interim, be applied
TO the adjustment of every controversy be-
tween nations without resort to hostilities,
failing in which the outbreak would be con-
fined to the nations directly involved and
another great world catastrophe avoided.
Under it the economic pressure for which
the covenant provides would be brought to
bear so forcibly upon the belligerent nations
that from sheer exhaustion they would have
to quit fighting.
AS the President has aptly stated. America
entered the war TO win victory which should
be so complete in its crushing OF the mill
taristic spirit that in the settlement to follow
there would be such consort OF purpose on
the part of the nations involved that ade-
quate safeguards would be provided that wars
like this could not occur again. This is the
pledge we made to the khaki-clad lads and 10
the households from which they were drawn
when we sent them overseas into the hell
of shot and shell of the great conflict, and
this is the pledge which the treaty document
undcrt: kes to fulfill.
The President and the best thought Of the
world engaged in the writing of this treaty
are agreed that it is the nearest approach
to the fulhllment OF that pledge that it was
possible to obtain. Without this settlement
our high ideals and purposes will have been
defeated and the world will again face the
possibility of a recurrence of the horrors from
which It has just emerged. The opponents
or tfcation not only have presented no
better plan. but they have offered no plan
al all by which future wars may be pre-
vented. The American people are deeply con-
Scious OF this and every expression from them
shows that they are with the President in
