HARD TO BEAT FOR OPTIMISM
Probability That Western Man la En
titled to the Championship
of the World.
Reference was viade to the optim
ism of a certain party in the lobby
of a Washington hotel the other
night, when Congressman Willis C.
Hawley of Oregon broadly srnih I
and said the party in question would
have to go some to beat the record
of dim Jones.
dim Jones, so related the con
gressman, lives in an eastern sub ur
ban town. Home time ago a friend,
in passing .Jim’s house, noticed a
hole in the ground and a pile of
bricks close by. He wondered, but
there was nobody at hand to explain.
Further down the street he met an
other friend of Jim’s.
“Say, Jake,” queried the first,
“what in the deuce is going on down
at Jim's? His place is mussed up
like a building operation f”
“That's what’s coming off,” an
swered Jake. “He is building a
garage.”
“Building a garage?” wonderingly
exclaimed the other. “What for?
He hasn't got an automobile, has
ho?”
“No,” replied Jake, “but he was
walking along the street the other
day and found a raffle ticket for one
that is to be chanced off.”
UNO OF WINGED CREATURES
Borneo Unique in the Number of Ani
mate, Fieh and Reptile* That
Navigate the Air.
In Borneo winged creatures are
encountered where one. would leas*
expect them. Flying fish the size ot
herrings are found in all the waters,
and there is the flying fox, the well
known fruit-eating bat, which the
Malays call “kruang.” They may be
seen almost any evening winging
their steady flight, often at a great
elevation well out of range of a shot
gun. The flying squirrel, as evening
twilight comes, is also seen. They
glide down from oDe lofty tree to the
base of another, up which they
scramble, to the level they started
from. Wide expansions of skin be
tween the fore and hind limbs act in
parachute fashion and sustain them
iu their glide. They are of some
size, hut are quite harmless. The fly
iDg lizard is seen in the heat of ihe
day in the jungle gliding down with
a flash in much the same manner as
the squirrel. But l#e is much smaller
and it requires a quick eye to detect
him. The natives kill him with a
clay ball shot from their blowpipes.

the acquaintance, “that your w 'fe

“Yes,” replied Harrv, "she is
practicing economy, all right, and if
your wife is thinking of taking a
turn in the same direction you had
better yet busy and head her oft
before il is too'late.”
“I don't understand you, Harry:,'
said the acquaintance, with a per
plaxed expression. “I should rogupd
economy is something to commend.”
“Yes.” was the smiling rejoinder
of Harrv. “but not vlien your wife
is buying your shirts at three for a
dollar so that she can get herself a

FORTY INSECTS
ATTACK THE PECAN
Board of Entomology Tells How to
Fight Bug3 and Diseases That
Injure the Tree.
Atlanta, Ga. —No matter what agri
cultural or horticultural line a per
son decides to follow in Georgia, he
must make a knowledge of certain
plant insects and diseases a part of
his stock in trade. The State Board
of Bntcmology is established not only
to furnish him information on such
subjects, but to assist him by demon
stration in checking, controlling and
getting rid of pests and diseases which
afflict growing plants and trees.
With the progress of the pecan in
dustry, tn Georgia, the Department of
Entomology has made a special study
of it, and has found that the pecan
tree, which thrives in nearly all sec
tions of the state, is subject to attack
by about forty species of Insects
while only two diseases of any ccui
sequence affect it.
State Entomologist E. Lee Worsham
has given some interesting data with
regard to the most prevalent in the
state.
The pecan bud moth, a small yellow
ish or pale green worm or caterpillar
with a dark head, attacks young buds,
tender twigs and leaves. There are
several generations of it, the first
coming In May. The most effective
remedy is to spray with arsenate of
lead before It has a chance to get
down into the buds.
There are two species of the pecan
rase bearer. This insect forms a case
around itself for protection. The first
attacks the young buds and twigs;
the second eats holes in the leaves
a:.d devours the blossoms. They can
be controlled by the use of arsenleals
as in the case of the bud worm.
Burn the Web Worm*.
The fall web worm is a grayish
or brownish caterpillar which matures
in a large white web, which it leaves
later to go to other parts of the tree.
The best method of control is burn
ing them with a kerosene or lightwood
torch before they leave their webs.
The pecan leaf caterpillar is rather
large and dark In color. Just prior
to shedding their skins, these cater
pillars leave the branches on which
they have been feeding and congre
gate on the trunk of the tree in large
ball-like clusters. When congregated
they can be killed by burning, but
they may be killed before this by
spraying with arsenate of lead.
The pecan tree borer, similar to the
peach tree borer, digs Into the sap
wood usually where a tree has been
lpjured or where it has been budded.
The best known remedy Is to dig
them out with a knife wherever prac
ticable. The wounds should be cov
ered with grafting wax to prevent the
deposit of eggs when the female
emerges in the spring.
The pecan girdler Is a small beetle
which has the pernicious habit of
girdling limbs and thus pruning them
off. The fanmie has the habit of de
positing her eggs In the branches
pruned off. and the insect is best con
trolled by gathering up and burning
these branches during the winter.
The pecan and hickory nut weevil
is the Insect that bores holes in the
nuts. Or, rather, the hole is made
by the grub or larvae boring its way
out. If infected nuts are boxed up
so that the larvae cannot get into the
ground where they must go to trans
form, they will starve to death.
Only Two Bad Diseases.
The pecan is more or less free from
scale insects, and such scales as are
found on the tree are easily controll
ed by lime-sulphur and other sprays
used for the San Jose scale.
The two diseases which most seri
ously affect the tree are pecan rosette
and pecan scab. Little or nothing is
known about pecan rosette, which
causes the ends of the twigs to die
back in the fall. Some growers have
resorted to the removal of the affected
parts, but. Mr. Worsham is of the opin
ion that when a tree is attacked with
this disease the best thing to do is
to remove it entirely from the or
chard and burn it.
Pecan scab is a fungus disease
which attacks the nut and the hull cov
ering it in such manner as to dwarf
it and prevent it from maturing. The
scab is known to attack the leaves and
tender twigs as wall. Seedlings as a
rule arc more susceptible than the
budded < r grafted trees. The scab
can be prevented by the application of
Bordeaux mixture just before the buds
begin to swell In the spring, and once
or twice 'ater during the growing sea
son. say once in June and once in
July or’ August. It is always an ex
cellent idea to topwork seedling trees
with varieties which are more or less
resistant. The Stewart is a variety
which displays a great deal of resist
ance to this disease.
