Nevertiel.ss our fruit crop i gone, and cousuniers as well as yrowere will have a rare opportunity thir year toappreciate the value of thai . . crop which the failure of will prove a heavy loss to uur county, This destruction of our fruit. crop by the frost ought, however, to-serve as u warning to owners of fruit trees, anv make them be more vigilant and show a better disposiiion toward fighting the onward march of that dreaded pest, the codlin moth, ii they don't want to. find themselve: another year without a crop of apple: ‘ and pears, frost or no frost. To regard tothe insect pests that are infesting our orchards, and cauing a considerable amount of damage both to trees and fruit, we will nam first — THE CODLIN MOTH, Through whose ravages last season the mvét of the apple and pear cro; in Rough-and Ready township wa: destroyed, while that of Grass Val ley and Nevada was greatly impair‘ed. The remedies recommended by this Board have resulted, whereve carried out, in saving a poition of th fruit crop, Foremost amorg those . remidies ig the entrapping of the larve of the codlin. moth through the Sumner seagon, thus chec.ing th ravages of th» second brvod, tie _, Worse one of the two, It was our in" tention this year ty procure a parm) with the necessary apparatus tu spray the trees with certuim washes alt. the rains were over, nd befure ta appearance of the eecond broud. ‘Thi we hoped Would drive away the fe male moth from the trees at the tim she goes around to deposit her egsr ou the side of the yauny fruit. © Tuimethod wuald have the advantage, if woiked successfuily, to secure au crop of fruit to tae man who cares to do sumetuing tor it, lettiny the coiJn moth. contine ite ravages to th orchards of those who are too lazy, or unwilling except when forced tr it by law, todo something . to tig out or drive away a pest that it let to'itself would not after a while leay. @ sound appleor pear on the trees. . We bad to postpone to next year ou: experiment of spraying trees wit! various solutionsto drive away the collin moth from the fruit, We have the WOULLY APAI3 Ro-contend against, under two differ. ent forms, viz: that which is found on the top and trunk of the trees and which infests the roots and occurs iv such great abundance as to fourm on them ga:l-like potutoes two or three inches in diameter. These lice are not new insects to this or any other county of Qualifernia. The woolly aphis is easily distinguished from other plant-lice by its white appearancé, thé lower part of the abdomen being coyered with very long down. -It does not attack the blossoin, the fruit, or the leaves, but fixes itsel! on the truok, limbe and twigs, It also likes to lodge in the cracks of the trunk and large branches. © Its effect is to render the wood knotty, hard, dry and brittle, which bring"9 0p rapidly. all the syinptoms that “characterize old age -and decay in trees attacked. The woolly aphis is the great scourge of the couutiearound the Bay of San Francisco, and causes iminense trouble in the =!» gonnty of Alameda. It seems this “ year tobe more thick than usual about some orchards in this county, ‘ and the attention of the Board has been called’ this year to its alarnivg spread, But wor e yetis “THE ROOT-LOUSE Of the apple tree. There are very few trees throughout the State that -are entirely free from the ipsect, all “Being ‘more-or less affected. The roots npon which this louse occur in large numbers have. no more the uppearance of roots. The tree languishes, makes no more new growth, and either dies killed by ite tenacious or remains in the orchaid cclale @ stiinted tree!’ “We have tried: ‘many remedies against th s pe:t, such gw sulpbo.garbouates of potassium, . ! “tto’ no avail. Wearthink, hawever, looking aa white as down, and that] known to be a great insecticide, tobacco decostions. ashes, etc., but that we have found in bi-sulphide o! carbon the very reme iy to get rid of . the apple root-lonse. We are yet experimenting on it, but mostly as to the dosé to be applied to do the work well without affecting the tree, leaves or fruit.

To regard tothe insect pests that are infesting our orchards, and cauing a considerable amount of damage both to trees and fruit, we will nam first — THE CODLIN MOTH, Through whose ravages last season the mvét of the apple and pear cro; in Rough-and Ready township wa: destroyed, while that of Grass Val ley and Nevada was greatly impair‘ed. The remedies recommended by this Board have resulted, whereve carried out, in saving a poition of th fruit crop, Foremost amorg those . remidies ig the entrapping of the larve of the codlin. moth through the Sumner seagon, thus chec.ing th ravages of th» second brvod, tie _, Worse one of the two, It was our in" tention this year ty procure a parm) with the necessary apparatus tu spray the trees with certuim washes alt. the rains were over, nd befure ta appearance of the eecond broud. ‘Thi we hoped Would drive away the fe male moth from the trees at the tim she goes around to deposit her egsr ou the side of the yauny fruit. © Tuimethod wuald have the advantage, if woiked successfuily, to secure au crop of fruit to tae man who cares to do sumetuing tor it, lettiny the coiJn moth. contine ite ravages to th orchards of those who are too lazy, or unwilling except when forced tr it by law, todo something . to tig out or drive away a pest that it let to'itself would not after a while leay. @ sound appleor pear on the trees. . We bad to postpone to next year ou: experiment of spraying trees wit! various solutionsto drive away the collin moth from the fruit, We have the WOULLY APAI3 Ro-contend against, under two differ. ent forms, viz: that which is found on the top and trunk of the trees and which infests the roots and occurs iv such great abundance as to fourm on them ga:l-like potutoes two or three inches in diameter. These lice are not new insects to this or any other county of Qualifernia. The woolly aphis is easily distinguished from other plant-lice by its white appearancé, thé lower part of the abdomen being coyered with very long down. -It does not attack the blossoin, the fruit, or the leaves, but fixes itsel! on the truok, limbe and twigs, It also likes to lodge in the cracks of the trunk and large branches. © Its effect is to render the wood knotty, hard, dry and brittle, which bring"9 0p rapidly. all the syinptoms that “characterize old age -and decay in trees attacked. The woolly aphis is the great scourge of the couutiearound the Bay of San Francisco, and causes iminense trouble in the =!» gonnty of Alameda. It seems this “ year tobe more thick than usual about some orchards in this county, ‘ and the attention of the Board has been called’ this year to its alarnivg spread, But wor e yetis “THE ROOT-LOUSE Of the apple tree. There are very few trees throughout the State that -are entirely free from the ipsect, all “Being ‘more-or less affected.
