EXPERIMENT WITH THE CODLIN MOTH By ao experiment which had Iti de nouement fait Tburaday E. II. Suep ard, manager of tbe Fruit Orower.' Union, obtained information in re gard to tbe piopagatlon of tbe eodliu moth that may be the meana of av lug apple grower here many hun dred, of dollar. A. la well anown to entomologiat the exuot period Im tween brooda of oodlin mot ha la a Hied one. Xbe coming of the Hint b-ood however, i aald by apple grower who have carefully watched tbem, to vary with the temperature of tbe weather during the early apring. If the coming of tbe flint brood oan be nnoovered they ay that it ean then be determined exactly when to apray for tbe second and moat diaaatrou brood. Tola Mr. Bbepard baa done and thla yeai fruit grower will know exaotly when to apray in order to ellmlnute the wot my apple. In talking about tbia interested experiment tbe fruit grower' manager aaid: "Ot oourae we have alway prayed our tree thoroughly and oarefuly during tbe winter aud summer, but the ayatem ha been more or lea haphazard. While It baa produced good result there baa been lome wormy fruit which It wa Impossible to eradicate owing to the fact that tbe moth prop agated between tbe period of apray lug. Hy taking a few of the Hrat wormy apple that appeared iu my orchard aud placing tbem in a jar 1 have batched out a oodlin moth. The Ant one, by the way, that I have ever seen In tbe valley, although we bave bad undliputable evldnnce that they were here. Ibe life of tbla motb will be four day when it will lay egg that will take eleven day to batch. So you ee we can determine when to apray In older to destroy this eoond brood. Tbe late apring this year waa very unfavorable to the Hist brood of oodlin motb which winter from tbe previou aeaaou. But tbe weather during tbe past month baa been the moat favorable for that fruit peat that ba been known In many yeara, aa for 20 daya during the month tbe minimum temperature at night never went below 60 degrees. A tbe motb Hie at night and Is not aotlve In temperature of less than 53 degrees, it can be aeen that ipray lug at tbe pro) er time this year will , be most Import it. It may immu the aarlug of many hundreds of dollars to tbe valley aud there la no reason why It cannot be repeated each year until tbe moth la practically exterminated. " The period of propogatlou of the moth aa determined by this experi ment la 50 days. Tbe first brood of worma wa In tbe apple 2 daya, In the eoooon 7 daya, larvae state during period of transformation 7 days, ille of motb day and egga in hatching 11 daya. This agreea with time be tween brand aa announaed by the State Agricultural college which places It at from i'J to 60 day. Herman Tariff on American Apple, (lolnff back a few yeara in the his tory of tbe apple trade, w find tbe country of Germany figuring only iu very small and limited way a a fac tor in the oomiumotion of American apple. Having once begun to take our product aa tbe German markets did milts extensively iu 1H1W, wben our crop waa universally of good quul Ity and reasonably cheap, they con tinned aa buvera with a rapidly In creasing demand, until the export of American apples to tbat country are numbered by hundreds of thousands of barrel annually, and a continued growth of thi industry la apparent, and baa become a matter of mob Im portance tbat it cannot be eliminated without seriously affecting the Auiui loan produoera on account of their own greatly increased production, de manding all available outlots. Germany recently enacted a new taritt law which contained maximum aud minimum duties, I ho higher du ties to be In effect upon the products of all oountrie which did uot enter into reciprocal arraugeiueuts with Germany. Technically under tbla Jaw, Uermany would bave bceu obliged to Impose the maximum duties upon nil American products. Iu view of the disastrous taiiff war threatened between Uermany aud tbia country, a modus vivendl waa made early last apring between the State department at Washington and the (lermau gov eminent to exist uutil July 11107, whereby the uiluliuuui duty la Im- fioaed on all American goods going uto Germany. Today the porta ot Uermany are open to tbe admission of Aineiioau apples, aubjeot to a duty of 3.20 mark pet buudred kilos, equal lo fifty cent per barrel; otherwise all American good would be taxed at the full maximum rate imposed by Uermany under it new tarltf laws, aud apple would be subject to a duty of 10 marks per hundred kilos, or 11.65 per barrel, an amount plainly prohibitive. Tbe following I tbe first item from oopy of the semi-monthly Bulletin, published by the American Associa tion of Commerce and Trade at Mer lin, dated July 15, 1006: Oarman-American Tariff Situation. Uerman exporters to Amerioa bave bien oomplaining during the last three month they have not observod any more liberal treatment of Uerman goods in American custom houses than before March 1. Tbe expectation appear to be tbat the treasury de partment bad agreed to facilitate Uer man import in waya not in practice before tbe new "Provisorlunr' went into force. Uerman trade papers have J charged bud fuitb against the Ameri can custom authorities, pnd this criticism had arisen to such a point a week ago that a aemi-oUlr.ial state ment wa made by the KfJnlsche Zletung on the subject. Uerman ex porters were told they were iu error iu supposing tbat the United States would tieat Uerman goods dilierently from those of any other countries or thut Uerman imports into the United State would be placed essentially on any different basis from that which existed before the "Provisorluin. " Since the provisional urrangement was made at the enil of l''ebruary, no Heps seemingly bave been taken by either the United States or Uermany toward a long-term tarllf arrangement. The Uerman government, the Bulletin bears, la disposed to wait before making overtures to the United State until the autumn. Fruit Trade Journal. Small College Is Bi nt. PaolQo Uolverlsty la one of tbe comparatively small colleges o tbe oouutry; but to these small oollegee tbe oouutry owes a great debt. Out of these small colleges have come the majority of distinguished Americans who bave received, what is termed, a higher education than that of tbe common aohools. It was Daniel Webstei who in 1818, speaking of bis own alma mater, Daitbmmiht, said to Cbief Justice Marshall: "Sir, it Is but a small college but there are those of It that love It". The chancea are better for a boy in a small colloge than in a great university, becaune the atmosphere of a small college is more embracing aud healthful than the atmosphere of a grei-t college which includes a good many well-to-do young fellows who imagine that they can all'ord to be social rebels, can alford to be lazy aud cau alfoid to ticeome the slaves of unworthy habits and a luxurious life. On the whole for mere ncademio training, the small college has always bad Its next record In results, nod it is likely to iu the future unless the great colleges raise their standard and make their pupils work or gn.-U. W. SCOTT. Coming Crop Will lie llnulile, Tbe executive committee of tli In ternational Apple Shippers' Assooia tion, at their convention at Niagara Kails last week, niado tbe Jollowing announcement regarding the l'.HKi crop: "The prospects of the coming oiop of apples iu the United States, Cana da and Nova Scotia, tiikou as a whole, compared with lnut year, nio fcr dou ble the quantity. As for quality, it far exceeds any crop of recent years, batreling telatively therefore more No. 1 apples in propoition to the crop than any previous year iu our gener ation." I he Frultman's Uuide says this es timate, according to any members ol the association. Is somewhat conser vative, theie being many authorities who are Inclined to sot the coming apple crop at no less than 2' times as big as last year's c op. While tbe table ol' perooutages from the various states ma lie up by the executive com mUtee from the reports thoy have re ceived was not mado public, enough was learned to indicate that New York state was set dowu for a crop of 1 ."." per cent that of last year. And In figuring on that Increase over last yeai'a showing, the executive com mittee took Into account its own es timate that the crop in the Hudson Klver section was but 50 per cent of last year's showing.
