WHITE FLY IN THE N. C. B. Conclusion of Buffetin Recently Issued from Berkeley-Present Problem Before Coast Growers [BY C. W. WOODWORTH.] Like the scale insects, the young white fly wanders over the twigs and leaves for a few hours, finally attaching itself by inserting its mouthparts into the leaf. After thus locating itself the young insect soon secretes a wax in sufficient quantities to fill the space between the body and the leaf. Because of the small size and transparency of the body and this cementing of the body to the leaf the insect is almost invisible. This makes it rather difficult to secure a good photograph of the insect. In structure and habits the nymph is so like scale insects that if seen at all they could easily pass as young scales. It is not safe indeed to depend upon the use of a hand magnifier for the identification of a young or partly grown nymph until one is thoroughly familiar with them, and even then the use of a compound microscope should be resorted to. Within the body of the nymph during the last stage wings are developed in both sexes and the whole internal structure reorganized so that when the skin is finally cast off a slender bodied, delicate fly emerges. Within the body of the nymph during the last stage wings are developed in both sexes and the whole internal structure reorganized so that when the skin is finally cast off a slender bodied, delicate fly emerges. This is in striking contrast to the life history of scale insects where the male alone obtains wings. This makes the problem of the control of this insect entirely different and much more difficult than that of scale insects, as will be shown in the discussion of this subject below. The full grown nymphs have a very much thicker skin than the younger stages and this remains attached to the leaf after the molt. This dried skin is very much more conspicuous than the living insect. The Adult Insect—The name white fly was given to the insects of this class on account of the appearance of the adult insect. Its snowy white color makes the insect very conspicuous notwithstanding its extremely small size. In the spring they appear in great numbers for two or three weeks and then suddenly disappear after laying their eggs, only a very few belated individuals coming out after the others remaining in the trees. In mid-summer a second brood begins to appear. There is no distinct swarm as in the spring, but during the whole latter half of the year the adult white fly can be seen on the trees in greater or less abundance. After the colder weather of winter begins the adults almost entirely disappear and are not seen again until the spring emergence. The life of an individual fly is very brief, averaging, according to Gossard, between four days and a week. During this time the eggs are laid, and as many as seventy-five have been deposited by in a car the length of single one of these reach district might make the of the insect an import may be that already they gotten beyond control chance of eradication worth the effort.

The life of an individual fly is very brief, averaging, according to Gossard, between four days and a week. During this time the eggs are laid, and as many as seventy-five have been deposited by a single female. PRESENT PROBLEM IN CALIFORNIA. As far as is known the white fly is still confined to the city limits of Marysville. There are no citrus orchards in the immediate neighborhood. Possibly therefore it may not have reached any other section. If left alone it certainly will reach every other part of the state. The trees in the immediate neighborhood of the railroad tracks are now infested. The electric cars pass between infested trees going to the orange orchards of Butte county. Now, if ever, is the time to make an effort to destroy the pest. There is no possibility of throwing a quarantine around the infested district that a flying insect will respect. To delay all effort towards eradication till next winter, as seems now to be the program, may be a fatal error. Every day during the latter part of the summer thousands if not hundreds of thousands of these minute creatures will be in the air capable of living long enough to be carried Saved by Pre-Cooling Santa Fe officials have that the pre-cooling plant station in San Bernardino when four cars of oranges wait in it for cooling, is only the number of such plants if the proves the success that is. The second plant is to be Redlands and the third in and work is to begin on the weeks in order to have them use by the first of next season orange centers of importance individual plants, but the second Bernardino will be one of them on the road and will be used from a number of small districts as Cucamongo, Rialto and C.

It is that already the insect has beyond control, but the mode of eradication is certainly the effort. Eradication is to be attempted self-way measures like sprayingigation are to be thought of this too much opportunity to come and no ready means of doing the fact. A campaign application should include: first, immediate destruction of every all citrus trees in Marysville every other plant known to sustainance to this insect; a thorough inspection of the village as it comes out on the seed plants; third, an exhaustion for other possible food of the white fly; fourth, reed- and persistent reinspection spots where the fly may not been annihilated; fifth, careful observation of every supposed case of fly in the state; and finally, sent scientific supervision of the park. We will be very few adult flies during this month and the start of July. After that the will be much greater andances of success corresponded. Will those most vitreous see that the work is taken?

The meeting of the majority of the directors to take the necessary steps was held in Cincinnati and the bonds have been disposed of to the Central Trust and Safe Deposit company of Cincinnati. A trust deed has been given to secure the bonds, covering all the property of the company in San Bernardino county. The Arrowhead company has been engaged for ten years in building the immense Arrow-head reservoir in Little Bear valley, which, when completed, will drain the valley and desert watersheds of the San Bernardino mountains and store enough water to irrigate the entire valley. Hunters Must Have License County Clerk W. B. Williams has received a letter from the California fish commission asking his estimate for the number of hunter's licenses that will be needed in this county. After consultation with John Carlyle, secretary of the game association of this county, the county clerk decided that 800 of the $1 licenses would be used by hunters in this county, and fifty each of the $10 and $25 licenses. The law will go into effect on July 1. After that date hunters will be liable to arrest unless they carry the license. All American citizens who are residents of the state must pay $1 a year for the license; all American citizens not residents of the state must pay $10 and all persons not citizens must pay $25. The letter to the county clerk says that blanks will shortly be sent him. The commission asks for the goodwill and co-operation of the clerk's office, and the letter says that "we confidently believe the hunters in every section will promptly acquiesce and respond to this new requirement." Special application blanks will be sent to the clerk which may be had by persons who do not care to travel to the county seat for the license, and this Under management of Georgetown Hotel St. Francis, ANAHI Steam Launcher can do your laundry FIRST-CLASS MANNER AS LOW AS ROUGH DRY Taken on Mondays, Tuesdays and Our Wagons will call—both Laundry on South Lemon st Phones—Sunset 188; est shown by those morecerned leaves no doubt object.

National Irrigation Congress In all sections of the west a lively interest is being aroused in the coming inter-state exposition of irrigated land products and forestry products, to be held in Sacramento in September in connection with the fifteenth session of the national irrigation congress. All those eligible to enter the numerous competitive displays for costly and handsome trophies, hung up by the management of the exposition, are arranging for an adequate exhibit of fruits, cereals, vegetables and other products of irrigated land and forestry products in the several departments of the exposition. Inquiries are pouring in at headquarters from many states for information and particulars concerning conditions and terms of the contest. That the display will exceed in magnitude and importance all previous attempts in that direction, is a foregone conclusion.
