season in accordance with the cod
ling moth control program for Ken
county.
Detailed studies of the life history
of this insect will be included in the
work at the chronological sub-sta.
ton where arrangements are being
made by DR.. Dozier and Mr.. Butler
to carry on this project in connec-
ton with the life history studies OF
the grape berry-moth and the orien-
tai peach moth which are also caus-
ing considerable damage in the
State at the present time.
When the maximum emergence of
the adult moths occurs this spring
notices will be sent out from the
county extension Office in Dover to
all the fruit growers, as has been
done each season for the past six
years, with timely recommendations
in regard to spraying to control the
first brood of this pest. In the mean
time these eleven cages will be in
spected every two or three days in
order that an accurate check might
be kept on the pupation process and
the life history changes that occur
during this period.
Considerable more effort is being
put forth by the Entomologist and
1.-The Kent County Agent each year
toward checking up on these obser-
walton cages and providing the fruit
growers with the latest information
concerning the life history and con-
troll of the cOdling moth, and excel
lent cooperation is being received
from the majority of the growers in
this cleanup campaign. The results
that have been obtained from disin-
fecting or destroying old picking
baskets, and giving the trees timely
and thorough applications of arsen-
ate of lead spray have indicated that
this continual war on the codling
moth is having a worth while effect
in the program for better apples in
the county and State.
If insufficient spray methods are !
followed, however, and large num-
bers of these first brood larvae may /
be allowed to pass on into the pupae
and adult stages, it can be easily
seen that even the best efforts of
spraying in the later applications
can result only in a partial control,
and at the best there will be large
percentage of stung and damaged
fruit at harvest time.
1t is of great Importance, there
fore, that great emphasis be placed
on the thorough and timely applica-
tons of the early sprays containing
the arsenate of lead, for the extent
to which this practice has proven /
most effective has been determined
largely by the way in which each
)rchardist has cleaned up in and :
around his packing house in addition f
o following the spray recommends
ions in accordance with the obser-
rations obtained from these cages
n the orchards.

THEY EAT YOUR CLOTHES

AS the time is at hand for laying
aside winter clothing Importance is
attached to warnings from that
very important institution known
as the Bureau of Entomology at
Washington which says that your
clothes may be kept in safety from
attacks by moths during the season
that they are laid aside. persons
owning clothing subject to attack
can afford to buy chests or cabinets
that are very tight in which to store
them," says the statement. Lane
chests are as standard in the name
of this commodity as Bell for tele-
phones. Train loads of cedar chests
are leaving the Lane plant at Alta
vista, Virginia, these days, bound
on their mission to protect house
owners.
The Government publications
recommend red cedar chests as "the
tightest containers on the market"

These viewers with alarm, both
foreign and domestic-who see the
United States becoming less and
less a nation of home builders, will
! find some ease for their minds in
one of Mr.. Hoover's departmental
surveys just issued.
Twenty-siX per cent more new
homes are sprouting up over the
land than at this time last year. In
fact, last year there was eleven per
cent more of this defiance of di-
vorce, jazz and wanderlust than
three years ago. And nearly fifty
two per cent more BODYBUILDING
than three years before that.
Which seems to lead to 1921, the
year of Mr.. Hoover's appointment,
when the country began to hear his
doctrine of Better Homes and More
Homes, and that sort of thing. The
Commerce Departments unroman-
tic analysis of current business
does seem to show, indeed, that not
only were there more homes built,
but that they were at least six per
cent better homes than the homes
of three years before-in dollar val
ues, of course, the Bureau of Cen
sus not being concerned with mat
ters of housekeeping. And this
aid of increased value of
building materials, which in fact
cost eight per cent less.
AS for the cosy six-roomers,
there was all the encouragement in
The world to build. The index of
prices for that type of |
nome shelter ranged downward |
from POI in 1924 to 1877 in 1927 and |
o 17S when the last report was
written. A good home costs IL per
cent less today than four years ago.
