a NEW PEST HITS SMYRNA
BERRY PATCHES

Inc current worm, which is as
destructive also on gooseberry
bushes, is comparatively new
pest for this section, but read of
for many years where these small
fruits have been extensively grown
further north. 1t has not been I'M
til the last year or two that it has
been especially noticeable, and we
have not heard of its dating back
in any quantity here more than six
or seven years. The past week or
two it has been very destructive in
both gardens and fruit patches,
and in this it has bene aided in
the wet, cloudy weather. In sunny
weather the worms exist only on
the shady side of the leaf, but this
season they could take any posi-
ton with impunity, and in their
vast numbers and with their raw
enous appetite could strip a bush
of its leaves before it could be de-
tected They are similar to the
army worms that sometimes APP
pear in wheat fields, only they are
smaller and greener. They appear
ed in the patch of J. D. Scout on
Thursday last, and despite his eff
fort on Friday and Saturday to kill
them with Persian powder and
helebore, by Monday nearly one
third of his patch had been strip
ped of its leaves. They prefer the
leaves to the berry but the latter
needs the shade of the leavs to
help them mature, otherwise the
sun scalds them. Mr.. Scout had a
good prospect of 200 bushels. He
commenced picking yesterday, to
save the berries on the leaf strip
ped bushes, though they are only
two-thirds grown and two weeks
ahead of the usual time of market
ing. The usual price of gooseber-
ries is $500 to $3.50 per bushel,
but for these Mr.. Scout expects to
realize only about one-half price,
which will not leave much after all
the expenses aggregating about IS
cents per bushel, are taken out 1t
is stated that when bush is thor
oughly stripped of its foliage one
season, it destroys its capacity for
fruiting the next.

shown his good will for Smyrna in
making amends for the past by the
framing of a special bill (for fear
it might be lost in the general bill
for such purposes by Presidential
veto) making an appropriation Of
S35, 900 (Which may be amended to
S25, 0OO) to erect federal building
in Smyrna for post office purposes.
AS one to place us under obliga-
tions, this would be a GROWING act
because such a thing as the cree
ton of a Federal building had
ceased to be hope of the most
sanglIine. True, the business of
our post office amounts to within
a small fraction of $500 a year
and other places Of less Importance
have been thus favored, but in the
multiplicity of claims to reduce the
surplus in the National Treasury,
it viii indeed be a triumph of rep
resentative skill to get a special
bill through solely in the interest
of Smyrna.
