Improve Grounds of Hospital

Two or three changes have also been made on the hospital grounds that already prove how desirable they are and how we'll worth while 1t was to make them. For instance, trees have been moved eight or ten feet to enable the enlarginR of the roadway that circles the lawn between the hos pitai building and the entrance. The trees have not suffered one bit by be- ing transplanted, and the roadway has been desirably altered. Sheds under which autos were parked, at the right of the grounds, have been moved to the rear of the hospital, and are not now part of the general view that one gets as he approaches the insti- tuition. The change is decidedly for the better and unqnestionably increas- es inc general attraetiveness of the grounds.
 The many changes and improve meHts will be completed with tho building of the roads on the hospital grounds, and the development of new lawns created because of the laying out of the new entrances and the closing of the old one

Spraying Apple Trees


 Calyx spray should be applied im- mediately after the apple blossoms fall.
 Undoubtedly the most important spray that is applied by the fruit growers is what is known as the calyx or codlinR moth spray. The fruit growers in the county plan to put this spray on in the most thorough manner, realizing that the insects and fungous diseases prevalent at this time are among the worst Of the sea- son
 The codling moth appears just af- ter the petals fall. The egg matches as a worm or larva, which cecoons and then changes to the legless pupa, and finally emerges as the adult moth. The time required for this transfof- nation varies with the season, so that there may be two ar three such gen erations of moths during the year.
 The first moths of the season ap- pear shortly after the apples blossom and lav shsir egus near the young ap- ples Their worms heein Co hatch two to six weeks after the blossoming time, though most of the hrst brood worms do not appear til several weeks later These worms must feed tn the apple.
 When the worm emerges rom hs egg-shell it is small. and delicate, and hungry. It seeks about for shelter and for food The blossom end oi the apple provides both, and actually attracts about 50 per cent of the worms, whether early or late m the season. That the majority of the eod- ling moth worms are instineuVe.y di- recied to the ealyN cavity is probably due to the absence of tough skin.
 Some worms eat their way through the side of the fruit, even though this part be covered with q wooly coat or with a tough akin. Where two apples touch. or where leaf overlaps the apple. the eodiing worm is apt to De gin feeding. If this first meal proves tough or unpalatahle 1t is rejected, the worm working if out of it's mouth hy emitting some silk from it's mouth glands.

 Object of Spray
 The object of spraying is to coat the food of the newly matched worm with poison. Since most worms at tack the apple at the blossom end, it Is necessary Go fill this part of the fruit with poison. This can be done only during the week or ten days im- mediately following the blossoming period, before the calyx lobes fold over. This spraying is called the calyN spray and is the most import ant application that can be given.
 While the calyx spray primarily aims Co fill the ealyN cup. it coats the outside of the apples and leaves as well. This exterior poison reduces the number of side entering worms of the first brood of the codling moth.
 Time Go be applied Immediately after the petals fall.

 The Flea Beetle on the Potato
 II is the feeling of the County Agent that the flea beetle is one of the most destructive insects that Inc poia- to growers in the county have to deal with. This is due to the fact that the insect goes about it's work unharmed When the common potato bug comes along control measures are put into operation. The flea beetle has done a great deal of damage before the po- tate bug comes along. The potato leaves are Glled with small holes and the vines receive a setback from the start.
