Tim ravages o tlio Codlin niolh liavo
injured very materially tho npplo crop
of every portion of .tltH Slate. Wo
find tho fruit growers justly al'.irmed.
Wo hear of somo orclmrds not yet vis
ited by this foil destroyer, but all may
expect, only too soon, to pay tlicff tr
chaids a visit. ''.,
It would appear from vvlmf can ho
lathered from fruit growers in this
vicinity, a well as froio r.rticlts in
dilT-fcnt papers of tlu Mate, that, bu:
l!'f..' . -,-. ..f li. i linril-tiiriulli'll nf

tliPso insects. Some areiu to think
1 '
that the, destruction of tho orchards
affected i tho only ellectual moans of
checking their pi-ogres. Others at
tribute their origin to a diseasa of th
fruit, while still others hold tho tree
peddler responsible for their introduc
tion. Whilii ihi! Codlin moth is voll
known to many a. a larva (tho apple
worm), it is not familiar to many of
our fruit growers in its natural statu as
a moth. Thef,o littlo worms that in
fect thu fruit aro produced from rggs
laid by a beautiful littlo moth that
measures about thred fourths of an
inch across tha wings when expanded.
tho fore wings are cro.ised in their in
ner two thirds by numerous lines of
gray and brown, whilo near tho end of
tho wing is a spot of dark brown tho
pyes of which an furninhed with cop
per color. This spot on tho foro wing
will always cnablo one to distinguish
it. Tho hind wings aro light yellowish
brown with a shilling luster. In Mich
igan, Illinois and other states it makes
its appearance from tho n iddlo of
April to the fore part of June, varying
with the season and latitude, or about
tint tirtio tint young apples are tho sizi
of hazbmuts. The feinalu deposits n
singltt pgg on each apple, until her
stock of from two to threu hundred is
deposited, when, her mission ondal, tilio
dies."Thes? eggs ure usually placed on
the blossom cud of tint fruit, but may
be glued to tho side or placed in ille
hollow of the stem end. Those, hatch
In a few days, when the worm burrows
into tho apple uiakiii'' thn core the
center of its operations. In about
thirty days from hatching, the larva
reaches inaturiiy and gnaws its way
to the outside for tho purpoiio of un
dergoing transformation. After leav
ing the apple, the caterpillar hunts
some crevice or sheltered place where
it spins a cacoon and changes to a
chrysalis. The requisite shelter is
found under chips, or under tho old
bark of tho tree, or iu tho crotches of
thn tree. In about two weeks from
thn time the worm has changed to the
hrytalis, it comes out a full grown
moth, ready to repeat the rounds of
rgg depositing, the second brood ap
pearing in July and August. The eggs
are deposited as befuru anl thn worms,
whi n hatched, burrow into thu apple
as before; but the apples are larger and
do not fall from thu effects of the
worms. Many of thesis worms are car
ried to the appla housn and cellars,
whem they coinu out and make their
cocoons in the cracks of boxes and bins
and make the first brood in tho Spring.
It is probable that they have been
brought to this .State in fruit Loxch
and not with young fruit trees, cs
young trees do not give them the re-
juired shelter. Many remedies have
been suggested and tried with varying
results. The old method of putting
bandages of cloth or straw around the
tree under which they will spin their
cocoons, and may be easily destroyed,
has wen found to reipuro morn atten
tion than could be given them during
tho busy season, A better method is
to pasture hogs in the orchard, but as
many of tho worms leave the apple be
fore it fa!iS,tnany will of course escape.
To make this method effectual the or-
c'la'dist must fell the wormy apples to
the ground bef r tho worm leaves
tbem. The mound of filth at the blos
som end of the apple shows which are
wor.iy, as:d is net dillicult to bring
them to the ground with a forked
stick; wo thus get rid of the uprin and
by thinning improve the quality of the
fruit. Prof. Cook, of Michigan, Says
by far the Lest method is to spray the
tree with aritiiies. He uss London respited ut two (liTi-rent times, and it
purple or Paris green, mixing one' is the general Mi f that he was hound
pound of the powder with a' out f.f;y eJ to lh commission of his crime by
gallons of water. One common mil of ,corporate greed.
thn liquid is Buffiuient for thn largest
tree when applied with a fountain
pump. Applied when the fruit is small,
say about two week after the hlosouis
appear, it has been found to give the
best of results, for each worm, as it
gnaws into the fruit, is almost sura to
get Homo of tlie nrsenio which lodges iu
the upturned calyx. Tho danger from
the use of thes arsinitrs has been
shown by choiul-fJTajid microscopic
tests to be nothing at all, the rains and
wind removing every trace of the
arsenic Morn tho fruit is full grown.
Another method often recommended is
to attract thn moths io liquids. This
remedy, like that of attracting tho
moths to lire, has. hem. shown hy long
series of careful experiments to bo en
tirely worthless. As mild winters aro
known to bo unfavorable . to insect
hibernation, causing premature activity
in insects followed by relapses into
torpid state, we way tind that they
may bo naturally checked iu their
spread over tho valley. If not, vigi
lance will be the price of good apples
in this State. Corvallis Chronicle.

Kditoh News. Iu your daily issue
of Oct. 29th there is an article on the
ravages of the codlin moth among the
apple trees of Oregon, in which it is
stated that "there is no known remedy
to exterminate tho codlin uioih.1' I
send you a copy of a pieco I cut from a
uesvspapiT and had thn same pasted in
my scrap book. It can be tested with
very little, labor and expense, every
farmer having tho necessary machinery
at hand. Hoping it way do some good,
I remain Itespectfully yours,
Apam FlTTON.
The following is tho remedy: Hang
a lighted ' lantern to the limb of the
tree, set an apple box on end under
tho 'autern, place a pan half full of
water on top of the box and a spoonful
of coal oil on the water. The lantern
should hang just near enough to the
water to clear it. Some have said that
thn codlin moth is not attracted by a
light, but I think all thn moth family
are alike in their liking for a light.
The first nudit I caught over 200
moths with one light. The next night
70. Then I waited two nights and the
next time I caught over 3'JO. I be
lieve that two lanterns in a ten acre
aero orchard, lighted two nights in tho
week, will keep the orchard pretty
clean of codlin moths. Kvery moth
that touches the oil on the water if
caught, and not mora than a pint of
oil is needed during tho entire neason.
The work should bu kept up during the
entire season. , -
George Curran is a Calais lawyer,
famed for his wit and talents nil
through Kastern Maine. Not long ago
a banquet of some kind was given in
St. S'.evom, New I5ru;iswick, opposite
Calais, at which Mr. Curran was one
of the invited guests and epeukers. A
pompous Englishman responded to the
toist "Ureal liritatn in tlio most
glowing terms, in which he used the
wellknowu expression, "The empire on
which the sun never sets," and indulg
id in some comparisons which were not
plensing '.o the Americans present.
Mr. Currm responded to "The
United States." Ho remarked that lie
did not know as he could say of his
country what thn gentleman who pre
ced-d him had Said of Great Dritain
that it is "an empire on which thn sun
never sets," but he felt like thanking
God that lie is not afraid to let us stay
in the dark! , ,
A Republican Senator now upon the

paid upon articles of almost universal

One day last week, the tocsin of war
was sounded at the night of a game of
Dock on tho Rock. , Tha toy who was
minding tho duck rushed on . the boy
who had just fired a half brick,' in ft
violent state of anger, superinduced by
an abraded shin or Bonio trifle of that
sort. The combatants got affairs down
to a war footing without the formality
of choosing seconds and referee, and
did th'iir best to disfiguro each other
for life. The tight was right merrily
raging when it attracted, the attention
of a kind hearted, benevolent-looking
old gentlomau, who bore down on the
yelling gang with an inexpressibly
shocked countenance. Ho crowded his
way to tlut center, grabbod tho boyi
lud held them apart. He then road
them ft homily o:i the evils of fighting;
and tho disgrace of trying to harm each
other. It was long and impressive.
He even went so far as to drag in that
poetio gom which, commences, "Ilirdi
in their littlo nests agree," and tha sen
timent also, that,only dogs delight t
bark and prepare themselves for tho
sausage machine, for 'tis thoir nature.'.
"My young friends," ho concluded,
"you should learn to love each other
and play in peace and harmony to
gether. Ho who lifts his hand again
another will come to no good cut). . IU
was never intended , that ons . person
should harm another. ' You should live
at peace with your playmates and tho
whole world."

the old gentleman who preached peace,
