FIGHTING PEACH TREE PEST
ra-Oichlorobenzene Treatment Az
fords Means Of Kidding Or
chards Of Harmful Borer.

The results OF what is known as the
ra-dichlOroben2ene treatment for the
eradication Of the peach-tree borer
lead experts Of the United States De-
partment of Agriculture to believe that
a practical means has finally been
found of ridding orchards of this dis
astrously destructive pest. Previously
the only effective method of fighting
the bOrer was by removing the soil
around the base Of the tree and dig
cling the grubs. out OF their galleries
with knife. 1t Is estimated that the
borer had dcne S6,OOO,OOO damage a
year and that S2,OOO.OOO a year has
been spent in fighting them.
The para a-dichlOrobenzene method
was first used extensively by orchard
lists In 1919. 1t consists in sprinkling
fine crystals OF insecticide on the soil
around the base OF the infected tree
and covering with earth to hold the
gas. The substance is highly volatile
and forms gas when the soil Is be-
tween 70 and so degrees Fahrenheit.
This gas IS five times heavier than air
and sinks down through the soil. 1t
is highly effective against the borer !;
and a pound OF the insecticide. cost
ing not more than % cents, Is sufficient
for eight to ten trees. The labor is
scarcely One-thtrd of that formerly re-
quired. The saving therefore Is great.
In 1920 the para acknowledgements
process was used extensively in the
Georgia peach belt, some localities
buying as high as 10000 pounds and
large individual growers ns high as
two tons each. Growers declare that
ii Is one of the greatest accomplish
ments In the history of the depart
ment, comparable to the self-boiled
lime-sulphur treatment for control of
brown rot and scab OF the peach.

SIZES OF FRUIT CONTAINERS
Efforts Being Map to Fix Standards
Readily DlstinsuishabIe by
tho Average Buyer.

The bureau Of markets of the United
States Department Of Agriculture. in
its efforts to bring about standardiZa-
tion Of shipping containers for fruits
and vegetables, Is recommending
standard types for three OF the most
common types Of packages. These
are the hamper, the round stave bas-
ket. and the market basket.
These recommendations provide not
only standard sizes but standard d.
mensions, and 1t Is the intention of
the department to fix standards which
will be readily distinguishable from
each other by the average buyer.
There are at present great many
containers OF different sizes which are
40 nearly the same in appearance that
they are II never-endnG source Of
fraud.
BY slight modification In cOnstruc-
ton II is possible to make 2S-quart

IMPORTANCE OF GOOD ROADS
Most Towns Recognize imperative
Need Of improved Highways to

The country town that has poor

capped. just as the. farmer is who has
to haul his products over such roads.
Most towns recognize this and try to
get their share Of trade by making the
main thoroughfares navigable at all
times with tOlerable loads. The town
that does not see the Importance Of
good roads and the imperative need of
making them passable to ordinary
traffic has need of the jolt that is not
generally long delayed.
We sometimes hear the expression,
"a poor trading place." and instantly
we know the meaning of 1t. We at
once know Ii refers to a town that has
Yallen into Rip Van Wrinkle sleep
and we are safe in assuming that such
town lacks wideawake merchants
and the other necessary adjunct-good

When farmer sells anything,

wheat or corn he naturally considers
the difficulties of the haul. Other
things being equal, he chooses the
road with least hills: and If the road

A cornbelt town exists, primarily,
by reason Of the farm trade. When
this reaches volume that lines the
streets with farm teams any good day
except the busiest times of the year,
we can be reasonably certain that the
merchants and roads are both attrac-
tive. And the opposite can be inferred
when the streets are bare of farm
teams and cars.
Most towns recognize the value of
good ronds as trade getters. Some
times the topography of the country
