Cars To Meet Conditions Of Roads

sidering the motorizing of its high
way traffic, declares that the general
establishment of regular automobile

wait for the construction of new roads
and the rebuilding of old ones, but
that the motor vehicles must be adapt
ed to the roads. The roads are to be

METHOD OF APPLICATION 5=
G OV1RNM ENT investigators
have finally found an effective
weapon to use against the "Peach
Borer," an insect which has been
causing an annual loss of about
$10,000,000 to peaches, plums,
prunes, nectarines and almonds.
“ParadlchlorobenzOne” is the scien
tific name of the discovery, but it
is probable that it will be known
by its shorter and less formidable
name, "paraclde.” *;
Two men are jointly responsible
for the discovery and its develop
ment. They are Dr. A. L. Quaint-
ance, Entomologist in Charge, Fruit
Insect Investigations of U. S. De
partment of Agriculture, and Dr.
Alvah Peterson, Assistant State En
tomologist of New Jersey.
The Peach Borer has been one
of the orchardlst’s most power
ful enemies. Until the develop
ment of paracide, the one means
of 1 combatting it was by cutting It.
out of the tree with a knife or
digging it out with a stiff wire.
Both methods were expensive,
tedious and uncertain. Oftentimes
these crude methods caused as
much damage as the borer itself
and frequently resulted in shorten
ing the life of the tree.
The Peach Borer 1b a white worm
which feeds bn the outer layers of
the tree trunk or large roots, and
may be detected by masses of
gum containing sawdust-like parti
cles which exude from the trunk
near the ground. Later it becomes
a moth which lays many eggs, but
It is as a worm that it is destruc
tive.
Paracide should he applied in
the fall. Early October is best in
the South, late. September for
WeBt Virginia and the Ozarks, and
early September in the North. At
these times the larvae which would
mature the following spring can
be killed. The ground around the
tree is made clean and smooth,
and one ounce of the material is
strewn in a circle that is every
where about two Inches from the
trunk. It is covered |)y a few
shovelfullB of earth which are
patted down by the back of the
shovel and left for at least six
weeks. The earth mound is then
removed. Paracide volatilizes un
der the ground and forms a gas five
times heavier than air. The gad,
completely encircling the tree,
smothers the pest but unless
wrongly applied does no damage
to the tree. 1
Careful records show that the
treatment costs about 2 cents per
tree for labor and material, pnd
that results are nearly 100 per cent
effective. In one large orchard 22,-
000 trees were treated by 50 men lttf
three days, and fln some 300 trees
examined later only one Borer wai
found.
