Birds Save the Apples.

Birds are much more effective in
controlling certain pests than any
other means. The codling moth, the
worst pest of the orchard, destroys
over a million dollars worth of apples
every year, says the American For
estry Magazine Of Washington The
little brownish moth lays its eggs on
the newly formed apples shortly after
the petals fall. During it's entire life
cycle there are but a feNEhours when
the poison spray is effective and, mas
much as all of the eggs do not hatch
at exactly the same time, chances Of
killing all Of the larvae are very slight.
Birds keep after them all the time.
