it was transformed into stacks and

corner of the blacksmith's shop, or
back room in seed store.
First Bought Food.
With their borrowed funds the farm
ers first bought square meal for their
families, and hauled timber from near
by forests to build new homes. Farm
tools and IL stock were so scarce
that many long shopping trips had to
be made. One eager customer trudged
70 miles for a spade to dig up his gar
den Many a man walked 20 to 80
miles and returned leading his new
horse loaded with seed bags, and drag
ging a plOwshare. Two bumper crops
have been produced by the clients Of
this chain of banks and much Of the
money has already been repaid, with
4 per cent interest. Not only did they
save their own provinces from famine,
but they sent great shipments Of food |
products into neighboring stricken sec

AND SHADE TREES IN CITY, SURVEY SHOWS

trees, particularly on apples, while
bark, which is difficult for the insects
to pierce, are more resistant. Some
varieties of the same kind of fruit also
are more resistant. Scurfy scale is
found on the elms and oyster seems
most common on lilacs. However,
there is hardly single tree or shrub
which is not subject to attack by some
scale insect. when it is present in suf-
fcient numbers, and when the trees
that are least resistant have been
killed, the scales spread to the near
est hosts.
May Kin Trees.
Damage may be either the actual
killing of the trees, the only serious
damage in shade. trees, or in the case
of fruit trees, the heavy drain the
parasites put on the tree, will leave
no sap to form and ripen fruit.
The San Jose scale may be identi.
fed by it's characteristic round shape,
and the white stain that is left when
it rubbed off. The scale is not larger

and the insect itself, which may be
seen by lifting the scale, is about the
size of the head of an ordinary pin
and reddish brown in color.

size as the San Jose, and the same

Need Contact Spray.
! Control of the scales is possible
only by what is called contact
, spray. Lime sulphur spray is general
ly used, which kills the insects as
soon as it touches them. 1t is posi-

eliminate the scale insects, but only

near the high school of an old apple

long dead that all the smaller branch
es were broken off, only the main

lnfestation by scale insects of al
most all fruit trees, and of a large
number Of shade trees and ornamental
shrubbery is disclosed by an investi-
cation suggested by reports of dis
eased trees discovered by the county
agent, J. L. Dolan.
The county agents attention was
hrst directed to the situation by a
request from a resident of South
Twelfth street, to examine some elm
trees that were not thriving. 1t was
found that one elm tree, in the middle.

festation of the security scale, while in
about the same position il the next
block north several elm trees also
are In very weak condition.
Near the corner of Thirteenth and
North B streets, cherry and apple
trees were found with San Jose scale.
and a shade tree on the corner shows
a large number of the insects In
the extreme north end of town, fruit
trees also are badly injured by the
parasites. In Glen Miller park. elms
and dogwood were found suffering
from scale. Near the intersections
of Nineteenth and South A streets,
lilacs are covered and beginning to
die from the oyster scale, and fruit
trees, apple, peach and cherry trees
show the San Jose.
Spraying Helps.
In West Richmond, scale was found
north of Kinsey street and south of
Main and west of Sixth streets. Far
Their out, beyound Earlham, San jose
is common, except with the owners
who spray their trees. E. X Wilson,
resident of this section who has an
orchard and sprays trees in the neigh
borhood and in Richmond, states that
he has examined no unsprayed apple
trees in Wayne township which have
not shown San Jose infestation.
This statement also supported by
Prof. John Thompson, of the local
high school, who states that San Jose
| is common through the city, and men
ton oyster scale also upon shade trees
