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. OKE-BIDEO ECONOMY. "1 understand, iLirry,” remarked the acquaintance, “that your w 'fe had started to practice economy.-.

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.
