It has been found by Investigation and growers In other states where the leaf roller occurs, that the only satis-iactory satis-iactory means of control of the pest Is to kill It in the egg stage. This is done by-means of a late dormant spray with miscible oil which is thoroughly applied to all parts of the infested trees Just before th5 :taf-buds :taf-buds burst open. At this time, the eggs,, which are laid in masses, on all parts of the trees, are about ready to hatch and are much more readily killed at such a time thaa earliep during dur-ing their more dormant and protected 'stages. A survey of orchards in the spring of 1923 revealed the fact that practically prac-tically all apple orchards in the county were infested with leaf roller. Thie degree of infestation varied consider ably. Some orchards were heavily infested; in-fested; others moderately, and the remainder were slightly Infested. In consequence of the conditions- in the orchards at that time, all of the infested in-fested orchards, and a large number of other orchards, received the' mis-cjble mis-cjble oil spray. As a result of that work, the insect has been held in check and its damage to the trees and fruit was greatly reduced. It has. been found during the recent orchard inspections', that the infestation infesta-tion of eggs which will hatch this spring has been very greatly reduced in numbers as compared with those present in the orchards a year ago. The extent to spread is not greater than it was at that time. Jt has thus been demonstrated here as well as In neighboring states that the fruit tree leaf roller can be successfully suc-cessfully controlled with the miscible oil spray. Encouraging as the results of last season have been, the pest is, nevertheless, only partically conquered, conquer-ed, and it is very important that the control work against it. shall continue again this year because there is some leaf roller In practically all of the orchards of the county, with the exception ex-ception of the Elberta district. Now is the time to continue the fight whilo the enemy is on the run and weakening. weaken-ing. Failure to spray infested orchards this season will mean a great increase in the. Infestation as1 well as tremendous' tremend-ous' inury'"to- tSe reesand fruit"of Spraying the orchard with an effective effec-tive miscible oil will cost the grower no' more this year than to spray it with liirie and sulphur. The higher cost of oil spraying in the past has been rea-; son why more' apple orchards were. no.t sprayed with it last season. This ! objection Is now overcome."' In addi tion.to killing the eggs of the leaf roller, miscible oil, .if thoroughly applied, ap-plied, will control San Jose scale and and it is equally effective in controll ing red spider, green and rosy aphids as is lime and sulphur. If efficient control against San Jose scale is not obtained with oil, it is because of faulty application or some other factor than the oil. Other states found last season that miscible oils gave control of San Jose scale when lime-sulphur lime-sulphur had failed to give complete control in preceding years. Some growers' are of the impression that spraying with oil two or three years in succession, will be Injurious to the trees. This Is a mistaken idea. The leaf roller infested orchards in sections of Colorado and Montana have been sprayed with oil a number of years in succession with no indv cations of spray injury due to the cumulative effects of the oil. In view of the foregoing facts, apple orchards of the county should receive a dormant spray of miscible oil. If this practice were followed for a couple of years, one of the worst apple pests of this county would be exterminated. Even though the orchards were not infested with leaf roller, every successful orchardist knows that the application of the dormant spray is an Investment in and an insurance, on his crop which he cannot afford to be without. Cases of light infestations of leaf roller which are not sprayed with oil may possibly ba held in control by using us-ing double strength lead arsenate in the calyx and first cover sprays. This method of control Is to be reconv mended only in very light infestations or a supplementary means of control in cases of heavy infestations. It can not be safely relied upon to give com plete control because of the high re sistance of the worms to lead orsenate and because of their habit of webbing the leaves of blossom together in such a way as to make it almost impossible to get the spray material where the worms will get a killing dose. Remarkable instances where officers of the Forest Service have caught offenders against the fire laws of national forsets- are often reported, says the United States Department of Agriculture. One such instance recently occurred in. California, where officers of the Forest Service secured evidence against an automobilist who violated the camp-fire regulations before the camp fire was even built. This sounds like Sherlock Holmes at his best. Here is how it happened. A tourist from one of the Eastwn States established a temporary camp in the Trinr.lty National Forest, Calif. On an inspection trip a forest ranger photographed this particular camp to secure a picture for use in a report on camping sites in his district. A few days later this ranger was called out to tight a forest fire thst had plainly started from a camp fire left burning by some careless camper who had moved on to parts unknown. The ranger remembered having included an automobile in the photograph he had taken of this particular camp site a few days before. Hurrying back to headquarters he . examined the nega tive and with the aid of a magnifying glass picked out the number of the license plate on the pictured auto. mobile. He then sent a descriptton over the telephone to adjacent towns and ranger stations' and landed his man, who admitted his carlessness paid his fine, and continued on hl'a way with a new appreciation of what was meant by Be sure your camp fire is out then bury it." Paper Has One Subscriber Paid Up for 72 Years ALTO, TEX. Joe Barnes of Magnett, Tex., recently visited this city. While here he paid a visit to the local paper, the Alto Herald, owned by?Vl eiaiWi-osW paying a visit, .Barnes also had his subscription extended from 1924 to 1996 at the rate of $1.50 per year. The total amount paid was flOS for 72 years. . . , . - - . . Barnes says' he likes the "home paper" and asks Weimer to "keep 'er comin." Weimer says he will, if he lives that long. ; The Alto Herald hag another subscription sub-scription paid up to 1935, but the 1996 subscription is believed to be a state or national record. section LSSOCiE; rune 2: tatives try in witit luce crosv - will public 1 f rporat . irowai plant' ling r wort: it ie At' r sur; atCc: the & ounted conPt , cast y for, or - er mi'-.; cker, & ntraH h cod1, Gto' jnal nting ted 1 o distf tion t ect I ig of 5 rlandC ; f siv( ( rafSf ' RUNABOUT Detroit mt ripsJ on boot 5tartr mnd Dunountmbh Rim $85 txtrm 1 , Etsima&ois& Mow! .1 - ' Each spring the demand lot Ford Runabouts is far in excess cf the immediate supply. .

The fall has been continuous since 1916 and the 1923 death rate (9.6 per 100,000) is only a little over one-third the 1916 figure (26.2).
