RED SPIDER CAUSES MUCH
INJURY TO FRUIT
Can 5e Controlled BY Dusting or
Spraying During the Summer
Months.

An insignificant looking insect, but
one that sometimes is very injurious
10 fruit trees is the red spider. accord
ing to B. Szymoniak, associate horti-
Culturist, Extension Division, Louisi-
ana State University.
"A large number of insects of the
red spider species infests the under
surface of the leaves and produces a
spotted, yellow, sickly appearance,
which finally results in the leaves drop
ping off," says Mr. Szymoniak.
There are two kinds OF red spider
that are found on fruit trees. One is
known as the yellow mite and the
other as the brown mite. The yellow
mite is about the size of pinhead or
smaller and spins fine web on the
under surface of the leaves under
which it lives, multiplies and sucks the
juices from the plants. The brown
mite is brownish red in color, has Il
flat back and is of about the same size
as the yellow mite, but does not spin
a web. The brown mite lives on the
twigs and branches, to which it does
the most damage by sucking the sap.
1.-THE only satisfactory way to con-
troll the red spider is to dust or spray
with sulphur during the summer
months. Dry, finely pulverized, sui
phur known as flowers of sulphur
or atomic sulphur, is very effective. 1t
is important to apply the sulphur at
least once month during the summer
months if best results are to be OBJ
tanned, beginning the application DUR
ing the last week in May. 1t may be
applied in powder form or in solution,
using about four pounds to so gallons
of water.
1.-THE grower should take care of his
trees during the summer months by
spraying to control insect and diseases.
The spraying keeps the foliage in a
healthy condition, thereby resulting in
finer quality of fruits"

SATlNS, SILKS AND cREPES
 FOR SKIRTS AND BLOUSES

Nothing can be prettier than is the seorgette crepe offered this season for dresses and waists. Both plain and printed effects are in high favor.
 : The designers are sending out some charming printed sseorgettes, rather small designs in pastel shades showing
 up well on the soft. fainty material.
 1t comes about 40 inches wide ar.' sells
 from B to s55G. As the vo,eIe of
 georgette sleeves continues strong, this
 material is in constant demand. Crepe dc chine holds it's own in popularity, for evening and street
 dresses, being shown in light and dark shades and in all the fashionable col ors. At 40 inches wide the price, Sa the yard, is reasonable enough. Taffeta, satins and a few foulards have the call. One dealer of wide ex- perience predicted "Wednesday that a fine new line of foulards is coming in for smart dresses, and that this fabric
 is going to be much used this season Crepe meteor-whicf is satin fin- ished crepe-is always liked and in the spring displays is priced from s3 per
 yard up, coming 40 inches wide. For dresses or blouses, satin de chine is frequently employed. fully 25
 colors being provided, so that choosing one's favorite tint is easy. At $2.50 1 the yard and 36 inches wide, this 1 modish material would furnish a very handsome frock or waist and at com paratively little expense. The colors shown include a fetching tint of blue | called swallow, the new henna shade
 which borders on the once popular terra cotta. rose, purple, salmon, silver gray, turquoise. and others equally ap-
 pealing.
 This promises to be 8 big silk and satin season, after the first rush of
 the new solid woolens and woolen pIaids.
 l And. by the way, there are some strikingly handsome silk plaids on dis play, for those who desire skirts or waists of this type.
 l There is real lesson in a study of the varied assortment of satins, silks
 crepes and the like which merchants | have in stock to meet the season's 1 demands.

CARELESSNESS TO BLAME FOR FIRES

While returning from the fire the chiefs car collidei with a car owned by William Santo of Norwich Town near Broadway corner The Santo car had the axle broken but the ire department car was uninjured.
 The second fire occurred about six o'clock when a bell alarm came in from Box 2s1 for a brush ire in St Mary's cemetery. To this call the bumper, the deputy chief and the chiefs car responded ard six gallons of chemical were used to extinguish the blaze. fE this casa where there was no immediate danger of serious fire telephone call would have been mich better than to summon out a good portion of the department by a bcl alarm.
 Another frs occurred only a few minutes after the return Of the de- Iartnent from Greeneville. This was a chimney fire at 24 Elrt street in the house occupied by Charles J. King: A few gallons of chemi sal were used to put out this blaze. There was no damage.
