Washington. Tho department of ngrlculturo Is making n special effort this fall to prevent tho spread of gypsy nud brown tall moths. It Is tho pur pose of the government experts to put Into operation some effoctlvo means of reducing further damage to orchards und forests by thoso pests. In tlio areas Infested by these pests much effoctlvo work can bo dono to reduce tho damage that these Infects nra'llkcly to cause tho following year, according to entomologists of tho de partment. The caterpillars of tho brown tall moth spin webs lu tho fall which remain on the tips of tho twigs and branches during tho winter. Thoso webs should bo cut nud burned so thnt Injury will not bo caused by tho cater pillars tho following summer. Par ticular attention should be given to webs of this Insect on trees which grow round dwellings or In orchards.
