SECRETARY ALEXANDER
URGES CAREFUL SAVING
"Do Not Waste Waste" in Spring
Cleaning, Commerce Depart
ment Asks in Statement.

Conservation of waste by house
wives following their spring cleaning
is urged in a statement issued by Sec
retary of Commerce Alexander. Sec
retary Alexander said: Spring is
here and with it comes spring house,
cleaning. The housewives will, in
cleaning out the house. throw away
or burn great quantities of waste. The
lessons learned during the war should
not be forgotten: let it be borne in
mind that the reclamation of waste
is a problem which is not only fitted
for war times, but for the times of
peace as we'll. The argument which
may be advanced from time to time
in times other than war is not neces-
sary, is fallacious. because it is very
essential that some means Of Offset
ting the high cost of living be found.
do not waste waste-but turn it
back into the channels of commerce.
You will be surprised at the tidy little
sum Of money that can be derived by
turning over all character Of old pa
per, rags, rubber, metals and other
odds and ends to the junk dealers who
will in turn start this waste back
into useful trades.
1T has been estimated that the
value of unreclaimed waste material
throughout the United States in the
form Of paper. rubber. metals, ETC.. is
about $500,000,000. Fully 80 per cent
of this material can be reclaimed
through the proper efforts.
"The Department of Commerce has
on hand a limited number Of publica-
tions on waste reclamation which it
will be glad to send interested per-
sons"

PECAN GIRDLERs AND BoRERS

Clemson College, November 80
At this time of the year numerous
inquiries are received in reference
to the falling of pecan twigs, says
Prof. A. F. Conrad, Entomologist.
This is caused by the pecan twig
girdlers. This beetle is about one
half inch long and lays its eggs in
the small twigs of pecan and hickory
trees. After these eggs are laid in
the bark the twigs are girdled at
some point between the tree and
where the eggs occur so that when a
little later these girdled twigs are
thrown to the ground by gusts Of
wind every egg and every grub
comes to the ground with them. If
these. .twigs are allowed to: remain
on the ground until late in the
spring the beetles coming from
them will girdle the pecan twigs next
year. Make it a point to gather
these fallen twigs during December
and again in February and be sure
to burn them. If you have hickory
trees -.near the pecan. trees, treat
them likewise, =:
7" $50: :: !
=. ...<> The Trunk Borer.
The@'.ihsects boring into the trunk
and larger limbs of pecan trees
should be controlled as follows: If
you have no syringe get small
glass eye-dropper from the drug
store and a little carbon bi-sulfide
or chloroform and inject one or two
eye-droppers full of one or the other
of these chemicals into the burrow
and close the opening of the burrow
with parafn, putty, or beeswax. To
close the openings with wooden
plugs is not effective and is inju-
rious.
