Gypsy Moth, Brown Tailod Moth, San
Jose Scale and Leopard Moth Are the
Most Noxious of the Pests.
The growing interest In munlelpul
betterment throughout this country Is
nowhere better Illustrated than 1 the
Increased planting of residential city
streets with shade trees, the more sci
entific maintenance of such trees and
the wonderful development of boule
vard, park and playground systems,
says A.T. Hastings, city forester of Jer
sey City, N. J., In the American City.
From the cumulative muss of Improve
ments the proper attention to shade
trees on the city streets Is a detail of
special and personal Interest to the av
eruge citizen, affecting himself, his
family and his home directly and con
cretely, while at the pame time affect
ing the city at large.
Proper attention to shade trees In
any city presents, several aspects, all
Important Id themselves and each of
a different and specific character. The
choice of varieties to plant, the proper
planting of the tree, fertilization, wa
tering and caring for growth, pruning
and trimming, the destruction and pre
vention of insect and disease pests and
protection from mechanical injury and
from nuWic utilities all these are nec-
essury and Important points to consid
er. Of prime importance is cuecKing
the ravages of Insect pests.
The insects Infesting snaae trees
may be classed under three groups
lenf eating Insects, suckirfg lusects and
those that feed during a part of. their
Uvea inside the branches or trunks.
Among the leaf eating insects that are
sneclullv noxious are the gypsy moth,
brown tailed moth, elm leaf beetle, fall
TOCNQ SHADS Til Kit BROKEN IN HALF BJ
H1VAUK8 OV TUB LHOPABD MOTU.
web worm, basket worm and the tus
sock moth. The sucking insects are
tho scule Insects, such as the Sun Jose
nnd oyster shell scales and the plant
lice. Those thut feed during a part of
their lives wlthlu the wood of the
trees are called borers. Notable among
this group are the leopard moth and
the maple borer.
In the spraying of Inrge trees climb
ing into them is necessary, but with
the power mnchiues a great deal of
this climbing is eliminated. Spraying
should contluue during the entire feed
ing time of the catorplllurs, or lawtae.
There are also methods to be used In
the light against leaf eating Insects,
however, and these should not he
overlooked. One of these Is by de
straying cocoons and egg masses.
The fight ngalust scale Insects pre
sents a totally different aspect. These
Insects do not feed ou leaves, but suck
the Juices of the plntits. Any poison
placed upon the leaf surface will have
no effect upon the insect, as none of It
will be eaten. A contact poison must
necessarily be used. Such poisons as
may be used In this case are whale
oil soap, lime sulphur mljtnre. soluble
oils and a variety of pntent mixtures.
There arc two feasible methods of
attacking borers. One is to cut Into
the wood anil remove the borer with
the aid of a thin piece of wire am!
then plug the cavity thus formed, to
prevent the entrance of water and to
promote healing. 1" some cases' It Is
not possible to get at the borer with
out removing too much wood. In such
rases If carbon bisulphide Is poured
Into the hole and the hole sealed up
the fumes of this material will suffo
cute the borer. The cost of removing
borers from large trees is so great as
In make It almost prohibitive. How
Ivor, the greatest damage by borers Is
to young trees, and as borers can eusl
ly lie removed from these It should be
done It Is slow, tedious work, but It
Is amply repaid In the saving it ac
complishes. The actual spraying and other Insect
exterminating operations must he nn
der the personal and absolute direction
of a competent man. tie must be a
man with a thorough knowledge of In
sect life. Tie must be constantly on
the watch for now nnd better mateilal
to be used and have the initiative to
properly carry out the work.

NOT TOO GREEN.
He. Knew Enough to Painfully Realise
His Exact Position.
Francis Kilkenny landed In Chicago
some years ago, fresh from Ireland,
with but a few dollars and no Job In
sight He decided to buy a second
band lawn mower and make some
money cutting gross. He was directed
to the north side of Chicago and final
ly struck the place where the big
houses and fine lawns are.
He went up the steps of a mansion,
hammered on the front door and was
vastly astonished to have a man stick
Ms head out of an upstairs window
and ask: "What are you doing there,
you greenhorn? Can't you see this
house Is closed for the summer?"
"But you're In It." answered Kil
kenny. "Sure I'm in It I'm the caretaker.
If you want anything Just go round to
the back door, where you belong."
Kilkenny started round, but came to
a tall board fence that ran clear across
"HOW IiOHU HAVB YOU BKUN OVKB?"
the lawn and had spikes on It He
didn't see the door in the fence and,
after figuring for a time, put bis lawn
mower against the fence and tried to
climb over regardless of the spikes.
The lawn mower slipped, and Kilkenny
stuck on one of the spikes and bung
suspended. I
The caretaker heard his yells and
came out Finding Kilkenny hanging
there in the air, he looked up at blm
and said:
"Well, you are green! How long
have you been over?"
"Begobs!" shouted Kilkenny. "1
ain't over yet!" Philadelphia Satur

' Jefferson's Prayer and Poultice.
Joseph Jefferson was suddenly taken
III once while visiting at the home of
a friend. The wife of the friend whose
hospitality he had enjoyed became
alarmed over his condition and. being
of a religious turn of mtnd, wished to
instill In the mind of the nctor her be
lief in the necessity for spiritual con
templation. A call to his room for the
purpose of applying a poultice gave
her the much desired opportunity.
"Mr. Jefferson," she said, nervously
shifting the poultice from oue hand to
the other, "for your sake, for the sake
of your friends, your fnmily, I I
would like to pray for you."
The actor listened attentively, and
bis answer came slowly. "Yes, mad
am," he said, "you may for my sake,
for your sake, for everybody's sake
but for heaven's sake put on Unit poul
tice I" '
A Pertinent Question.
Speaking of common sense. Dr.
Faulkner, bead of the Viueluud (N. J.)
hospital, told the following story:
A queer looking building hud been
erected on the outskirts of a small
town. It was shrouded In mystery.
All that was kuuwu about it-was that
It was a chemical laboratory. An old
farmer, driving past the place after
work hud been started anil seeing a
man In t lie doorway, called in him:
"What be ye doln' In this, place?"
"We are searching tor a universal
solvent something that will dissolve
all things," said the chemist.
"What good will tliot be?"
'imagine, sir! It will dissolve nil
things. If we want a solution of iron,
gluss, gold anything Ml that we have
to do Is to drop it In this solution."
"Fine," said the farmer, "fine: What
be ye goln' to keep It In?"-Everybody's.
A Personal Application.
When one of the large benefactors of

nur.i In Lawrence a customer of his

for a year or more without any signs
of settlement Several letters, says
the Boston Herald, failed to bring
about liquidation.
One day, while glauclng over the re

gave him au inspiration, and he went
to his desk and wrote the following

Prospective home hunters are more

Inld out like a park please the passer
by and add greatly to the appearance
of a town and Its approaches.
What parks are meant for and their
value to mankind are coulsely describ
ed by a writer In the Los Angeles
Times, who says:
"Parks are, or at least should be,
built for use, not merely to look at. A
park Is a piece of the country within
the town or a piece of land within the
town where the people have all the
freedom and Influences of rural parts.
For this reason as little restriction as
possible should be placed upon the use
of parks and every reasonable provi
sion made for the accommodation and
convenience of the public. No 'Keep
Off the Grass' signs should deter any
one from taking a roll (or a nap If he
feels like It) upon the lawns, and plen
ty of seats should le provided for all
who care to use them.
"There have been park boards that

public hail no rights which ihey were
bound to respect, but the shoe Is on
the other foot. Park commissioners
have no greater legal rights than the
public In general. A piece of land
within a town Is not a park, nor will
It ever be until used. One of the lend
ing park men of the United States has
made the point that a great co;iect!on
of buildings does not make a city or
town, but a great collection of people
does, and they And the buildings con
venient, almost necessary. The people
who use the land constitute the park,
for without them It would be useless
and, however highly embellished, would
be a dead thing uuless some one could
see It In detail and enjoy It.
"Not only should parks be used wher
ever found, but they should be found
everywhere, for It has been proved
that purely city .and town conditions
cannot produce what is best In man
kind and therefore parks are a prime
necessity. The best that Is in human
kind has been produced by association
with Nature and her influences. Man
kind confined to cities altogether arti
