Many of the Pests of the Orchard Are Held in Check by Predaceous Parasites. Scale insects and their control have probably received more attention from the essayist than all other insect pests of the orchard, so I will but briefly refer to them. The "cottony cushion," the "yellow," the "cottony grape," the "soft orange," the "San Jose," the "mealy bugs," "brown apricot," and several other species are held in check by predaceous insects and internal parasites, so that they are not now feared in most sections of California. The "black scale" in some sections near the coast is effectively checked by the Rhizobius ventralis, the small black ladybird that was introduced from Australia. In more interior districts they have as yet not been so successful, and fumigating with hydrocyanic acid gas or spraying has to be sorted to, to keep this pest under subjection. HOW TO FUMIGATE. In regard to fumigation I desire to give a word of advice to orchardists: Use only the best C. P. cyanide of potassium, not granulated but in pieces the size of beans to pigeon eggs. Frequently during the night when treating your trees examine the tents to see that there are no holes, for a very small one will be sufficient to render the work inoperative. Leave the tree covered not less than 45 minutes; see that the bottom of the tent is made tight with soil, or in some other way, to prevent the escape of the gas. If you have the work done by contract do not look for the man who will do it the cheapest. Ascertain who has done satisfactory work for your neighbor. Good chemicals cost more than to exhibit at the State Fair. He got the apples, and the apples and pears of the State got the pests. Three years after that it reached Los Angeles in apples from Sacramento. I have no doubt that this pest would have reached us even if no apples had even been brought from the East, as the worms will creep from apples and enter other boxes, where they will spin coccoons and come out as moths after the boxes had reached California. A TEST FOR PURITY IN PARIS GREEN. A great deal has been said about cheaper and better substitutes for Paris green as a remedy for this pest, but my advice is, use Paris green, but be sure you get it pure. This can be easily determined if you have a microscope by placing a little on a glass slide and then gently tapping the edge of the glass until only a thin coating is left. Upon examination if the poison is composed of spherical particles, you have a good quality; if, however, it is irregular in form, it is adulterated, and the safest course is to reject it. HOW TO USE PARIS GREEN. The university, the State Board of Horticulture, or Prof. Cook, will examine it for you and report. Use one pound of Paris green to 200 gallons of water, slack six pounds of fresh lime in ten gallons of water, and when the lime has settled add the water to the solution so as to make the 200 gallons of water. The next important part is to keep a man or boy constantly at work, not simply stirring, but violently agitating the solution, so that the poison will be evenly distributed; otherwise the poison is so heavy it soon settles to the bottom. Where the above instructions have been carried out 95 per cent sound fruit has been gathered. Spray as soon as the fruit is set, and during the season three times more. The above strength will kill the young worm and not burn the foliage, so why use it stronger? Another apple pest of the same character is found in Japan, and unfortunately has secured a foothold in Vic- SPRAYING FOR CODLING MOTHERS. Further Information Upon the Subject From the College of Horticulture. The fact that most of our scale insects can be sufficiently controlled by one application seems to have fostered the idea that all insects can be controlled thus easily. In very early fruiting the earliest pears for instance, they are many localities in the State where one application at the proper time may be all that is needed, but in most situations, and always upon late fruit, peated spraying during the summer, three or four weeks apart, according to locality, will be found necessary order to obtain best results. In the case of scale insects, the insect is upon the plant and exposed to the action of the insecticide all the year. By codling-moth can only be killed during a very small part of its life; this is between the time of the hatching of the egg and the entrance of the woody into fruit. Now the period of egg laying varies very greatly; but, usual thing, occurs not far from close of the blooming period, so that the first crop of worms can usually destroyed by an application made just as the petals are falling. In almost all, of our apple and pear regions codling-moth has many broods; in the latter part of the year, because of different lengths of lives of different individuals, egg-laying is most continuous, so that it is essentially especially toward the latter part of year, to maintain continuously a coating of the poison over the fruit and age. This requires repeated spraying and especially so in the latter part of year. Sprayings Must Be Uniform.—Lof uniformity in spraying will result leaving too much of the plant po- Use only the best C. P. cyanide of potassium, not granulated but in pieces the size of beans to pigeon eggs. Frequently during the night when treating your trees examine the tents to see that there are no holes, for a very small one will be sufficient to render the work inoperative. Leave the tree covered not less than 45 minutes; see that the bottom of the tent is made tight with soil, or in some other way, to prevent the escape of the gas. If you have the work done by contract do not look for the man who will do it the cheapest. Ascertain who has done satisfactory work for your neighbor. Good chemicals cost more than inferior ones, and a skilled workman commands and should have better pay than a novice. If you spray your trees remember that the soft scales (Lecaniums), such as the "black," must be treated differently from the armored scales (Aspidiotus). If lime, sulphur and salt solution be applied to deciduous trees infested with the former class of scale insects, it is money and time thrown away. You must use soap or rosin washes for such scales. When citrus trees are infested with the "purple" or the "red" scale, fumigate at night when there is no fog. If the proper proportions of chemicals are used, and the work carefully done, it is the only method that will reach every portion of the tree. WHERE FUMIGATION DON'T DESTROY. There is a class of very minute tree pests that are more difficult to control. Fumigation is not so effective in checking them, and during the winter it requires a very strong spray solution to destroy their eggs. I refer to the mites. We have two distinct species that are generally referred to as "red spider." The one that infests almond and other deciduous trees differs from the species found on citrus trees by having the anterior pair of legs longer than the others. This one is a Bryobia. The species on orange and lemon trees is the true "red spider" and belongs to the genus Tetranychus. In both, the young have only six legs and the mature mites have eight. The former species deposit their eggs on the under side of large branches, also on the trunks and about the crotches of twigs. The "yellow mite" in some portions of the State is a more serious pest on prunes and a more difficult one to combat. The foliage of trees or plants attacked by either of the above mites assumes a grayish color, caused by the tearing of the epidermis and extraction of the chlorophyll by their mouth parts. FIGHTING RED SPIDER. Where a spray of water can be applied to infested trees at sundown it is very effective in reducing their number; but this is impracticable on a large scale, so other methods have to be followed. Gardeners have found that to paint the heating pipes in hothouses with a solution of lime and sulphur is effective; the fumes arising therefrom keep down the "red spider." This fact has been taken advantage of by chardists, and in our dry, warm climate the most effective check is liberal dusting of the trees with sulphur just as soon as the leaves start in spring and at the time the mites hatch. This can be done thoroughly and expeditiously with a seeder, as figured in the report of the State Board of Horticulture for 1897-98, plate 21. Three applications should be made during the early summer. In this way the trees can be made to mature their wood and fruit buds and retain their leaves until late in the season, whereas if not lime has settled add the water to the solution so as to make the 200 gallons of water. The next important part is to keep a man or boy constantly at work, not simply stirring, but violently agitating the solution, so that the poison will be evenly distributed; otherwise the poison is so heavy it soon settles to the bottom. Where the above instructions have been carried out 95 per cent sound fruit has been gathered. Spray as soon as the fruit is set, and during the season three times more. The above strength will kill the young worm and not burn the foliage, so why use it stronger? Another apple pest of the same character is found in Japan, and unfortunately it has secured a foothold in Victoria, British Columbia. That port has direct steamship connection with Japan. PEEL WORM ON ORGANES. The small "peel worm" that has alarmed orange growers when they came across it for the first time is also a larvae of a moth tortrix citrifolella. I have known this insect in the State for over twenty years, and not over one orange in a thousand has been damaged by it. The best way is to pick up all infested oranges that drop and bury them deep in the soil. Paris green would not be safe to use on citrus trees. Every season we receive specimens from all the orange districts of the southern counties, asking if it is the dreaded Mexican orange maggot. You can readily determine this by remembering that the "peel worm" has feet and spins a silken thread, whereas the "Mexican orange maggot" is footless and has no thread. PEACH TWIG BORER. Another troublesome little moth is the "peach twig borer" (Anarsia lineella). This is an introduced species and has been in the State, to my knowledge, for twenty years. The larvae of this moth seriously damages the tender shoots of peach trees when they only are a few inches long, by burrowing into the tip and working down the center, causing them to wilt and die. These little worms have wintered in the spongy bark in the crotches of the trees where they grow slowly until the young growth starts in spring. The second brood attacks the fruit about the time it is ripe by burrowing into the peach near the stem. The best time to fight this pest is in winter, before the buds start by spraying with kerosene emulsion or lime, sulphur and salt solution. If the latter is used it also destroys any fungi spores that may be on the tree and is a preventive of "curl leaf." When you find an insect in your orchard with which you are not familiar, do not commence a war of extermination, but send specimens to some one that can enlighten you regarding it and its habits. I remember one of the first exhibits I made in Los Angeles of beneficial and injurious insects, at one of the horticultural exhibitions in the early eighties. A well-known San Gabriel orchardist passed the exhibit and remarked to a friend that he did not care for such displays. If he had had even a slight knowledge of entomology, thousands of useful "twice-stabbed lady-birds would not have been destroyed under the belief that they were the progenitors of the "red scale." I doubt if such a mistake could be made in California today, for I do not believe people of any country in the world have given more attention to the study of beneficial insects than have the orchardists of this State. ALEXANDER CRAW. Needham At Work. Congressman Needham has introducted a new application made by as petals are falling. In almost quite all, of our apple and pear regions, the codling-moth has many broods; in in the latter part of year, because of different length of lives of different individuals, egg-laying is most continuous, so that it is essential especially toward the latter part of year, to maintain continuously a coating of oil onthe fruit and age. This requires repeated spraying and especially so in the latter part of year. Sprayings Must Be Uniform.-Laws of uniformity in spraying will result leaving too much of the plant pooled protected, and so greatly increase danger due to the codling-moth. Itsularity can occur in three ways: First—In the spraying, unless it is taken, parts of the plant will not sufficiently wetted. This is likely occur in the case of tall trees towards the center. There is generally a client number of codling-moths about do a large amount of injury, so poor spraying of a part of the tree very liable to result in a great death loss from the moth. Spraying should be looked upon as an operation requiring most careful and conscientious work, and only those capable of working in that way should be permitted hold the nozzle. Second—Too much spraying is easy as too little spraying. Paris greens so heavy that, if one continues to sift such a leaf after it is thoroughly wetted such a way as to cause the minute coverage onthe lower edge, or off, he is sure in this way to wash large per cent ofthe Paris green, accumulate it onthe lower edge or leaf, where it will be of scarcely value. This fact emphasizes tha nt city of care in spraying, in order no part shall be oversprayed before other parts are sufficiently treated. Third—Care must be exercised pump to insurethe constant stirringthe mixture, on account ofthe war of Paris green, which causes it to very rapidly. Without care in tha gard one will be appying at one place almost pure water, and at another or three timesthe proper strengthParis green. Not only is such care likely to result in injury to tree but will greatly diminish tbe feciveness of an application.

The codlin moth is probably the best known of all. This pest was introduced into California upon some apples from the East in 1873. An orchardist in Sacramento had an idea that he could defeat his neighbors if he could only get some apples from his old home paint the heating pipes in both houses with a solution of lime and sulphur is effective; the fumes arising therefrom keep down the "red spider." This fact has been taken advantage of by orchardists, and in our dry, warm climate the most effective check is liberal dusting of the trees with sulphur just as soon as the leaves start in spring and at the time the mites hatch. This can be done thoroughly and expeditiously with a seeder, as figured in the report of the State Board of Horticulture for 1897-98, plate 21. Three applications should be made during the early summer. In this way the trees can be made to mature their wood and fruit buds and retain their leaves until late in the season, whereas if not checked the mites will cause the foliage to drop in August. The same treatment will answer for the "six-spotted mite," Tetranychus six-maculatus of the orange and lemon, that causes blotches like "mottle leaf." We have a very minute ladybird (Scymnus noius) that does good work against mites on citrus trees where it has shelter. Another genus of mites that attacks the leaves and fruit of trees are the Phytoptus. These are all microscopic, and generally live in the tissue of the leaf, or cause a spongy growth to form on its under surface in which they work secure from predacious or parasitic insects. They have cylindrical bodies, and in all their stages have but four legs. Their habits make them more difficult to combat, but sulphur is the best remedy to apply. The "pear-leaf blister mite" (Phytoptus pyri) is probably the best-known species, and when unchecked does considerable damage to pear trees. The "grape-leaf mite" (Phytoptus vitis) is only found to a limited extent in the State. It works on the under surface of the leaf and causes brownish spongy blotches. The rough blotches on the under surface of walnut leaves are generally considered to be the effect of a fungus, but if the leaf is sharply tapped over a microscope slide and the slide placed under a high-power microscope, it will be seen to have numbers of small Phytopti moving over its surface. The "rust mite" of the orange and lemon (Phytoptus oleivorus) belongs to this order, and damages the appearance of such fruit by extracting the essential oil from the rind. In the case of the former it turns the skin a russet color, and the lemon has a gray or silvery appearance. To check this pest use sulphur freely. Needham At Work. Congressman Needham has introduced a bill for the formation of a new judicial district in California. It is to be formed by annexing the counties of Alpine, Inyo, Mariposa, Merced, Mono, Tulare, Tuolumne, Madera, Stanislaus, Fresno, Kings and Kern counties; the southern division comprising the seven counties of Southern California—Santa Barbara, Ventura, Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside, San Bernardino and San Diego—and San Luis Obispo. Mr. Needham seems to have caught on in Washington in great shape, and is looking after the interests of his constituents with an eagle eye. A judicial district composed of the seven southern counties is what the people desire, and Mr. Needham's bill should become law. Drying preparations simply develop dry catarrh; they dry up the secretions, which adhere to the membrane and decompose, causing a far more serious trouble than the ordinary form of catarrh. Avoid all drying inhalants, fumes, smokes and snuffs and use that which cleanses, soothes and heals. Ely's Cream Balm is such a remedy and will cure catarrh or cold in the head easily and pleasantly. A trial size will be mailed for 10 cents. All druggists sell the 50c size, Ely Brothers, 56 Warren St., N.Y. The Balm cures without pain, does not irritate or cause sneezing. It spreads itself over an irritated and angry surface, relieving immediately the painful inflammation. With Ely's Cream Balm you are armed against Nasal Catarrh and Hay Fever. For Sale.

NING FOR CODLING MOTH. Information Upon the Subject of the College of Horticulture In that most of our scale insects be sufficiently controlled by application seems to have fostered that all insects can be control easily. In very early fruit, best pears for instance, there localities in the State where application at the proper time may that is needed, but in most situations always upon late fruit, repraying during the summer, at four weeks apart, according to which will be found necessary in obtain best results. case of scale insects, the insect the plant and exposed to the acetic insecticide all the year. But codling-moth can only be killed a very small part of its life; that seen the time of the hatching of and the entrance of the worm in fruit. Now the period of egg-laying very greatly; but, as a thing, occurs not far from the blooming period, so that crop of worms can usually be used by an application made just petals are falling. In almost or all, of our apple and pear regions, codling-moth has many broods; and latter part of the year, because different length of lives of the most individuals, egg-laying is continuous, so that it is essential, fully toward the latter part of the tree maintain continuously a coat the poison over the fruit and foliage requires repeated sprayings, specially so in the latter part of war. Settings Must Be Uniform.—Lack formality in spraying will result in too much of the plant poorly no doubt whatever that the injury from codling-moth can be reduced to a very small percentage. THE CORRECT PRACTICES FOR TREATING THE CODLING-MOTH. No simple directions can be given for the destruction of the codling-moth which will be applicable in all fruit-growing regions. The correct practice in this, as in all other practices on the farm, is that which will produce the maximum profit with the minimum expenditure. The time of making the various applications, and the number of applications, and the need or uselessness of additional precautions, will depend upon the locality and can only be learned by a study of local experience, and by practical experiment by the orchardist. There are some general principles that can be laid down to guide in the proper selection of methods of treatment. Time Of Application.—The first application should be made in most localities within a short time of the blossoming period. In those places and with those varieties in which all the blossoms open out about the same time, the application should be made as the last of the petals disappear. When the blossoming is slower, so that some fruit will begin to form before the last is out of the bud, it may be necessary, where the codling-moth is bad, to make an application in the midst of the blossoming season. If possible, however, the tree should not be sprayed during the blooming, as the blossoms to be fertilized are likely to be killed, or prevented from setting fruit, by the action of the spray. This first spraying should be made in almost all regions, with a possible exception of the immediate coast, where there is some evidence that it can safely be omitted. The time of the subsequent application can only be determined by careful observation in the locality. Under ordinary circumstances Paris green will remain on the leaves, sufficiently strong for the protection of the fruit for three or four weeks. UN- LOCAL NOTES OF INTEREST. Curlew Was Bluffing. Frank Curlew was in town some evenings ago creating a disturbance. Constable Kuebler asked Marshal Steadman to go, with him to Fritz's, where Curlew was said to be disturbing the peace. When the officers arrived there Curlew was found to have gone. Search was made for him about town, when some little time later he was seen on horseback near the Commercial hotel. Steadman went after him, and coming up to him laid hold of the bridle. Curlew placed his hand at his hip pocket. “What have you got your hand back there for?” queried Steadman. “I’ve got my hand on my gun,” replied Mr. Curlew. “If you have a gun on you, you are my prisoner,” observed Steadman, and Curlew was yanked off his horse. Search revealed the fact that Mr. Curlew was bluffing. No gun was found on his person and he was sent home with a fatherly lecture. Curlew lives at Buena Park, and has “done time” for horse theft. When sober he appears to be quite a decent sort of fellow, but when drinking is said to be several kinds of a holy terror. Wires Broken. While some Mexican woodchoppers were engaged in chopping down one of the lofty blue-gum trees on Center street, below Palm, in front of the new residence being erected by August Backs for the father of Rev. Father Dubbel, on Thursday last, the tree got beyond control of the guy ropes and fell across the electric light wires, breaking them and toppling over one of the electric light poles, attached to which was the transformer supplying Isaac Lyon’s residence with light. The broken wires were temporarily repaired, and consumers of light in the West End were supplied Thursday night, but Mr. Lyon had to resort to lamps. On Friday the fallen pole was Differences In Location. The fact is that generally appreciated that the moth are very different in current localities, so that the plan of treatment, especially the time and number of applications necessary for active work, will vary in different areas. There are a few regions immediately adjoining the coast, where it is possible to produce apples with little codling-moth injury year after year, without any attempt at controlling the insect.

Differences Of Season. There seems to be a very great deal of difference in habits of the moth from year to year in the same locality. In Berkeley, for instance, while during some years only small amount of injury will occur with no spraying, during other instances of spraying will result in too much of the plant poorly infected, and so greatly increase the need due to the codling-moth. Irregular can occur in three ways: - In the spraying, unless care is taken, parts of the plant will not be gently wetted. This is likely to injure the case of tall trees toward winter. There is generally a sufficiency of codling-moths about to cause amount of injury, so that a spraying of a part of the tree is liable to result in a great deal of damage to the moth. Spraying should be used upon as an operation requisite, most careful and conscientious and only those capable of working that way should be permitted to do the nozzle.

Paris green is always that, if one continues to spray after it is thoroughly wetted, in a way as to cause the minute drops being the leaf to run together and stimulate on the lower edge, or drop is sure in this way to wash off a per cent of the Paris green, or to stimulate it on the lower edge of where it will be of scarce any effect. This fact emphasizes the necessity of spraying, in order that part shall be oversprayed before the parts are sufficiently treated. Dird—Care must be exercised at the point to insure the constant stirring of mixture, on account of the weight of Paris green, which causes it to settle rapidly. Without care in this regard one will be applying at one time most pure water, and, at another, two three times the proper strength of Paris green.

One of the complaints made against it is green have been due to a failure to recognize these differences of habit different locations, and the attempt follows blindly the practice of one reason in another, in which the moth moves very different habits. Differences Of Season.—There seems to be a very great deal of difference in the habits of the moth from year to year in the same locality. In Berkeley, for instance, while during some years only a small amount of injury will occur, with no spraying, during other years a large proportion of the fruit will be wormy. Some of the complaints against Paris green are undoubtedly due to the fact that orchardists have been successful with one line of procedure during one season, and have followed the same program in the succeeding season with less success. The proper practice, therefore, in any locality, would seem to be the one which would insure good results in the season most favorable to the moth, even though it involve a little extra cost on the other seasons. We are not yet well acquainted with the effect of the character of the season upon insects that predict the result with much certainty; therefore, it would be well always to be on the safe side. IMPORTANCE OF TREATING THE CODLING MOTH. Where apples and pears are grown for home consumption simply, and where the codling-moth is not excessively abundant, it may be all right to neglect treatment, for under these circumstances the fruit is usually produced superabundance and the presence of considerable amount of wormy fruit is not particularly objected to, since most of it can be fairly well utilized. When over these fruits are grown on a commercial scale, however, the subject becomes a much more important matter: the presence of any considerable quantity of codling-moth will seriously decrease the quantity yielded, and may make all the difference between success and failure. Wormy fruit will also never bring on the market a price comparable with that of sound fruit, though the cost of growing, picking, packing and shipment is the same. The efforts made by the fruit inspectors to drive wormy fruit from the market are entirely commendable, and it will be but a very short time before such fruit is absolutely unsuspectable. No orchardist can afford to produce any large amount of wormy fruit, even if the cost of treatment were equal to the profits accruing from such treatments. With proper methods, sufficient care, and persistence, there is In spraying, therefore, it should be the intention to cover the plant very uniformly, using only enough pressure to produce a fine mist; or, if more pressure is desired, to keep the nozzle far enough from the tree, so that the water will come into contact with the leaves not as a stream but as a mist, and the moment the drops begin to run together, so as to cause any of the leaves to drip, the process should be considered complete. With proper spraying there should be scarcely any water on the ground, but practically all of it caught and retained by the leaves. This brings out clearly the contrast between the kind of spraying which is best when using Paris green and that which is the practice with the washes for scale insects. In the latter case the harder the stream comes in contact with the plant, and more free use of the spraying material, the more likelihood of thorough, satisfactory work. Spraying with Paris green can be done much more rapidly and, therefore, much more cheaply than spraying for scale insects. The best form of apparatus to be used will depend in part upon the amount of work to be done; but very good results can be obtained with a small and cheap outfit. The nozzle that will give a uniformly fine mist should be selected. There should be sufficient hose and extension rods to thoroughly treat every part of the tree; and an arrangement to insure a thorough stirring of the Paris-green mixture—more thorough than is usually provided by the devices for automatic stirring. Suit for Big Damages. Jean Tarride of Pomona, father of the late Pierre Tarride of Los Alamitos, who was fatally injured in the Christmas eve wreck at the former place, has sued the Southern Pacific company in the superior court of Los Angeles county for $15,000 damages. This is the first suit to be instituted, although others are in prospect. C. O. Wines, the fireman, and Edward G. Fitzgerald, the conductor of the wrecked train, are made parties to the suit, as it is alleged that they had knowledge of conditions which led to the disaster. The Homeliest Man in Anaheim.
