The usual spray program is ' dispensed with and the parasites will be depended upon entirely to reduce i the number of wormy apples. The experiment will be continued over a period of years. Parasites have been I extremely important duitng recent years by holding in check many of | 1 our major insect pests. A number of | rearing laboratories are being main tained from whence million of para j sites are now distributed over the country for various pests. The experiment at Parma will be the first of its nature to be started on the codling moth, and Mr. Haegle states that very keen interest in the project was shown by the entomol ogists at the national codling moth conference held at Urbana, Illinois. ! last February. The U. 8. Department of Agriculture Is cooperating by supplying the parasites to stock the orchard. A shipment of 1,000 codling moth parasites arrived by air express from Morrestown, N.

Our Pilgrim fathers used the cool ness of the earth or rough boxes in lowing streams to gain their crude refrigeration. A t last they found that Ice Itself could be harvested and stored year round. Thus the old ice-box days were born.

J Prom the years 1912 to 1927 numer- j ous attempts were made to devise j some artificial ice machine of a I miniature form for home use. Even- j tually, from these efforts, a success- j ful domestic unit was evolved. Nature's Way The ways of nature are simple. | She could not set up a complicated set of rules to preserve that which has ceased living against the prob ability that It might be needed for food. Nature therefore provided two simple ways to overcome the prob lem. First, she provided four prin ciple destructive forces to remove that which has ceased living and If not needed as food would be in the way. These are: 1.— Mold. 2 —Yeast. 3. —Bacteria. . 4. —Oxidation. Second, having provided these beneficial destructive influencer nature set up a way by which th'-i: | activities might be retarded sitfii iently long to preserve food for r plenishment purposes, should the be desired. The factors which control the I growth o f these micro-organism are: 1 .—Temperature. 2 —Humidity (The moisture In the sir). 3.—Air circulation. Neither the temperature or air circulation of an ice box can be automatically controlled and It was the need for some method o f auto matic regulation of temperature, humidity and air circuiltlon for the preservation of foods that engineer ing genius evolved the elcetric refri gerator.
