Mahony Declares,

Washington has relatively more art
students than any other city in the
country, according to Felix Mahony
director of the National School of Fine
and Applied Art. He further observes
that 1t is the second city to support
a school Of industrial arts teaching
professional fundamentals on fine arts
basis and commercial values.
Mr.. Mahony's school is in it's tenth
year, and has many graduates now en-.
joying professional careers in various
parts of the United States. The schoo.
teaches the student how to use his
knowledge for a commercial artistic
value, and a successful professional
career in the art world
1t is Mr.. Mahony's contention that
the demand for artist artisans is one
tnird greater than the supply in the
various industrial arts. He says

causing the trouble is the elm leaf
beetle. This insect passes the win
ter as an adult in protected places
such as attics in houses, piles of
rubbish or any other dry, protected
place. In the spring when the foli-
age comes out the beetles fly to the
trees and lay their yellowish eggs
on the leaves. The yellowish larvae
or grubs skeletonize the foliage and
then come down the tree to pupate
and turn into beetles
ut is in this stage that they are at
present and it is a very simple thinq
to destroy them by pouring hot soap
sues onto the larvae, which can be
found in the crevices of the bark and
in the soil near the base of the trees.
Ordinary laundry soap shaved and
dissolved in boiling water gives the
best results.
"ln case it is difficult to get hot
soap suds a contact insectcide such
as lime sulphur or nicotine sulphate
can be used. A concerted effort by
people in the area infested with the
beetles will do much to lower the
amount of damage another year. The
remedy is SO simple and the results
so worth while, it seems highly desir-
able at this time to make a drive
against this pest before the trees are
destroyed.
THE time is already here when
1t would pay the cities in the State
to have their own spray outfits as
cities in other states do. 1t would
he very feasible for several cities and
towns such as Augusta. Gardiner,
HallcWell and Winthrop to work to-
gether as a single outfit could easily
handle the trees in such a group.
Already several cities in the State
are making an effort to save the
trees before it is too late"

A concerted drive by the citizens
OF Augusta at this time of the wear
may result In preserving the beauti-
Lui elm shade trees of the CAPITAL
lily, according to statement made
thursday by Henry B. Pierson, State
entomologist. And the method Of
destroying the larvae of the elm lea r
oeetle, the ravaging pest, which
nave denuded many Of the century,
ola trees in certain sections of the
CITY, Is very simple and effective. and
consists of treatment of the trunk
bark and ground at the base of tho
trees with hot soap suds.
In speaking of the ravages of the
elm leaf beetles, Mr.. Pierson sug-
gested that cities of Maine should
own and operate their own spray
outfits, If they are to save their
shade trees before it is too late. The
state entomologist's statement of the
situation was as follows:
"A great deal of concern has
been caused during the last few
years by the browning of the elm
trees particularly in the vicinity of
the Augusta y. NJ. c. A, The trees
IN this section are particularly beau
tiful and their value to the property
in this vicinity and to the city are
almost inestimable. 1t is safe to
place value of $500 on each of the
large trees. Fortunately the early
settlers seemed to appreciate the
value of shade trees more than the
present generation, which takes too
many things for granted.
THE natural habitat for trees is
the forest and when transplanted
into the unnatural condition found
in our cities, where on one side the
roots are covered with oiled roads
and on the other crowded by houses,
the fight for existence is a hard one.
Few people even so much as fertilize
the trees. This means that most of
the trees are apt to be weak and
their power of resisting insects and
disease is naturally low.
The trees in this section have
been defoliated now for three years
and it is question as to how much
more they can stand. The insect
