Fruit Trees in Pennsylvania and Their
Insect Destroyers.
Continued from page 6.
winter. This is usuaily attached to some
small branch of the tree, and is several
inches long, brown in color, and unless
carefully noticed, looks like a swelling of
the branch. Here the insect passes the
winter and changes from the caterpillar
into the adult moth which escapes from the
cocoon the following spring.
The Cecropia caterpillar is so large, as it
approaches its full size, that it is usually
easily found, either by observing where the
leaves are heing stripped off, and searching
near, or by noticing the black excrement
which may be found on the ground beneath
the tree, and searching above the spot.
When the caterpillars are once found,
gathering and killing them is usually the
quickest and easiest method of checking
their attacks. In case this cannot be done,
for any reason, spraying with Paris green
should prove successful.
Birds and insect parasites freely attack
this insect and aid greatly in keeping it
under control.
THE ROUND-HEADED APPLE-TREE BORER.
This insect is quite generally distributed
over the entire apple growing portion of
the United States, and gives the fruit
grower much trouble. Its injuries being
entirely inside the trunk, makes it a diffi-
cult insect to combat, and as a consequence
of its work, many trees are either seriously
crippled or entirely lost. Unlike the flat-
headed apple tree borer, which is equally
i common, it works in the trunk for a long
time before completing its life history, and
the effect of the presence of even a single
individual is considerable.
The adult beetle, which is about three-
quarters of an inch long, of a grayish color,
with two white stripes along its back, lays
its eggs during June, July and August in
little slits in the bark made for the purpose
by the beetle on the trunk of the tree,
usually close to the ground. The eggs
hatch in a week or two, and the little grubs
gnaw their way inward where they feed on
the sap wood and inner bark, making flat,
shallow cavities, often so near the surface
that the bark over them cracks and some
of the ‘‘sawdust’’ falls out. As winter ap-
proaches they work downward and after a
short time become quiet till the following
spring. They then work upward, and con-
tinue feeding on the sap wood doing much
damage, as they are now large enough to
consume considerable quantities.
When winter comes again the grubs be-
come quiet, as they had done the winter
before, and the following spring begin their
last work in the tree. They now eat holes
in different directions, usually going deeper
into the trunk, but late in the summer
bore up and out to the bark, after which
they turn back and become quiet, while
changing from the grub into the beetle.
The following spring this change has been
completed, and the beetles gnaw their way
out through the thin layer of bark left over
the holes, and proceed to lay their eggs for
another generation.
Three years are required to complete this
life history, as the above outline shows.
Eggs laid in July, 1897, for example, will
produce the adult beetle in June or July,
1900.
This borer feeds on the apple, pear,
quince, mountain ash, June berry, thorn,
English hawthorn, etc. In some places it
is very common, there often being several
grubs in a single tree. It is one of the most
serious enemies to the apple and pear
growers, as its habits render it difficult to
destroy.
Here, as in most cases, there are two
main lines of treatment—prevention and
cure—and both will need to be made use
of, as neither alone is entirely successful.
Prevention is directed entirely to keep-
ing the insect from laying its eggs on the
tree, and various methods of accomplishing
this have proved partially successful.
As the beetle prefers to lay its eggs on
the trunk, close to the ground, it has heen
suggested to remove a little of the earth at
the base of the tree about the 10th of May
and wrap three or four thicknesses of news-
paper closely around the trunk for at least
a foot and a half above the ground, push-
ing the paper tightly in, so that the insect
cannot get between the paper and the
trunk. The paper should be tied with a
string, and the earth removed, should now
be returned and pressed tightly down
against the lower part of the paper. This
wrap, if properly put on, should last till
winter, and can be renewed the next spring.
Another method of prevention is to take
fine wire netting, cut in four sided pieces,
the tops being considerably shorter than
the bottoms. These pieces can be fastened
by the sides, till enough are thus connect-
ed to go around a tree-trunk, at the base
of which the netting will stand, sloping
out and down, from where it touches the
trunk, to the ground like a funnel, bottom
up, with the tree coming up through the
middle. The netting should be cut tall
enough so that it should reach up eighteen
inches to two feet on the tree, where it
should tightly fit. At the lower edge the
earth should be pressed down over it, so
that the beetle cannot get inside the nett-
ing and get at the trunk.
These methods are both quite effective,
but as the beetle often lays its eggs quite
high up, other steps must be taken in ad-
dition. To protect the higher parts of the
tree, whitewashing the trunk and larger
limbs, adding Paris green enough to give
alittle color to the whitewash, isa good
plan, and though some persons object to
this, claiming that it is not good for the
tree, it is certainly better than borers.
When borers are already in the tree,
remedies are called for. The best known
remedy under these circumstances, is cut-
ting out the grubs. Little heaps of saw-
dust, or dead and discolored portions of
bark generally indicate where to cut, and
if instead of shallow cavities close to the
outside, cylindrical holes are found, a wire
soft enough to follow the turns of the hole
and pierce the grub, will work better than
a knife.
THE PEACH TREE BORER.
The peach tree borer is probably one of
the worst insects Pennsylvania peach
growers have to contend with. It attacks
the young trees, often entirely girdling
them. The adult insect, unlike the round-
headed apple tree borer, is a pretty little
moth, but the habits of the two insects,
during the stage when they are in the
trees, are very similar, and the treatment
for the two is accordingly much the same.
It occurs all over the United States where
peaches are grown, :
The adult moths appear in Pennsylva-
nia in June and lay their eggs on the bark
of the peach tree close to the ground,
though in some cases they may he placed
as high as the crotches of the larger branch-

es. The grub which hatches from the egg
works its way into the bark and to the sap
wood where it feeds till well into the fall.
Its gnawing causes the tree to pour out
gum mixed with the excrement of the grub,
and the appearance of this gum is usually
the first evidence of the presence of the
borer. As winter comes on the grub be-
comes quiet, but begins to feed again the
following spring, and has reached its full
size (about an inch long) by June. It
then transforms into the adult moth, the
change requiring but a short time, and
leaves the tree, to lay eggs for a2 new gen-
eration.
As with the apple-tree borer, treatment
is of two kinds—prevention and remedy.
To prevent the insect from laying its eggs,
wrapping the trunk as described for the
apple-tree borer, has given good results.
Mounding up the earth around the trunk to
the height of a foot or more, has also proven
quite effective though it has been claimed
hat this method renders the bark tender.
It should be done about the first of June
and either left there and added to some-
what each year, or, if removed, this should
be done before the last of August.
Various washes have also been used with
good results. One of these is made by
mixing two quafts of strong soft soap and
a half a pint of crude carbolic acid with
two ounces of Paris green; adding a bucket-
ful of water, and lime and clay enough to
make the whole into a thin paste, and ap-
plied to the tree.
Perhaps a more effective wash is pre-
pared by taking whitewash made from
fresh-slaked lime and adding a little glue,
and a tablespoonful of Paris green to each
bucketful. This should be applied to the
entire trunk, from the larger limbs down
to below the level of the ground three or
four inches of which should be removed
while the whitewashing is being done.
As a remedy, where borers are already
in the tree, locating their position by the
masses of gum and cutting them out is the
best treatment known. |
THE PEACH TWIG BORER.
This little moth appears to be quite
abundant in Pennsylvania, as I have found
it in every peach orchard examined. Its
works seems to have been almost unnoticed,
however, and in each case, on attention
being called to it, the grower stated that
he had not noticed its presence before. It
occurs in nearly all the peach growing sec-
tions in the country and is responsible for
much injury to the trees. On the Pacific
coast it is also injurious to the apricot, al-
mond, pear prune and other trees, and in
California is regarded as one of the worst
enemies the peach grower has to contend
with, and is probably responsible for far
more destruction in ihis State than is gen-
erally supposed.
It was formerly supposed to be the same |
insect as the strawberry crown-miner, and |
that it was entirely distinct from the latter
was not discovered until 1897. The advice
formerly given, to avoid raising strawber-
ries near peach orchards, was due to this
error, and need not be followed.
There are at least three broods of insects
each year. The little caterpillarsare found
in the late fall, living in the spongy bark,
chiefly in the smaller crotches of the tree.
Here they pass the winter, and the cavities
they excavate and in which they hide are
marked by little masses of bark and ex-
crement combined, which project at the
entrance to the cavities. In the
spring the caterpillars leave these hiding
places and pass to the leaf-shoots where
they work in along the stem a vaying dis-
tance, eating the substance of the shoot,
and causing most of the leaves arising from
it to wilt and die. The caterpillars travel
from one shoot to another, and one cater-
pillar may in this way destroy several
shoots before becoming full grown. When
this condition is reached the caterpillar
forms a scanty web in the leaves and rub-
bish about the tree, and the withered
leaves on the tree itself, or even lies ex-
posed on the twigs or bark. Here it trans-
forms into the adult moth, the change re-
quiring from seven to ten days, after which
the eggs for the next brood are deposited.
The caterpillars of this brood attack new
growth of the tree, entering the little twigs
at the places where these are joined by the
leaves, and sometimes enter the stems of
the young fruit. Later they travel about
and may bore into the fruit itself, near the
stem. The adults which come from this
brood of caterpillars probably repeat this
history, and those of the next brood are
supposed to lay their eggs in the crotches
of the trees where the little caterpillars
pass the winter, although it is not certain-
ly known.
The first brood —the one which passes
the winter in the crotches of the limbs
—is responsible for the greater portion of
the destruction caused by this insect.
Boring into the young shoots in the spring
and passing from one shoot to another, the
twigs are killed, preventing the develop-
ment of the branches. Thus much of the
new growth is destroyed, sometimes hardly
an untouched shoot being left. This not
only causes a great loss of vigor and fruit-
ing power to the tree, but causes it to be-
come scraggy and irregular in its growth.
On one two-year-old peach tree examined
in May, 1898, ninety-three injured
shoots were found, while in another, one
hundred and sixteen had been burrowed
in.
Picking off the wilted shoots and burn-
ing them has been generally recommended
as the best treatment for this insect, but it
fails to save the shoots, and in many cases
these are unoccupied, the caterpillar hav-
ing completed its work and gone else-
where.
The recent discovery of the way in which
the winter is passed has given a more suc-
cessful method of treatment than that of
hand picking, which in a large orchard is
tedious and only partly successful. It is
to spray the tree during the winter with
kerosene en ulsion or some other prepara-
tion which will enter the little cavities in
the crotches where the caterpillars are and
destroy them.
The particular emulsion . recommended
for this purpose by the Entomological di-
vision of the U. S. Department of Agricul-
ture, is prepared as follows:
Kerosene 2gals.
Whale-oil soap. 14 1bs
Water wens liga,
The soap, first finely divided, 1s dissolved
in the water by boiling and immediately
added boiling hot, away from the fire, to
the kerosene. The whole mixture is then
agitated violently while hot by being
pumped back upon itself with a force pump
and direct discharge nozzle, throwing a
strong steam, preferably one-eighth inch in
diameter. After from three to five min-
utes’ pumping the emulsion should be per-
fect and the mixture will have increased
from one-third to one-half in bulk and as-
sumed the consistency of cream. Well
made, the emulsion will keep indefinitely,
and should be diluted only as wanted for
use. To use it during the winter, add six
gallons of water to every gallon of emul-
sion, or in that proportion. If hard water
is used, either in making the emulsion or
in diluting it afterwards, about twenty-
five per cent. more soap should be added.
Do not spray long enough to let the emul-
sion down the trunk and collect in little
pools in the crotches as this wounld be like-
ly to injure the tree.
that except under the most unusual cir-
successfully controlled.
THE PLUM CURCULIO.
This well known pest is responsible for
the destruction of a large portion of the
plums raised in the State. During 1898 it
destroyed about sixty per cent. of the
plums formed on the trees, and in the past
has been so injurious that many persons
have given up raising this fruit entirely.
The adult curculio is a little beetle,
rather less than a quarter of an inch long
and with a snout on its head. It passes
the winter in any protected place it can
find, and appears in the spring about the
time when the buds of the plum trees bhe-
gin to open and the leaves appear. Until
the plums have begun to form it waits
about, feeding on the tender leaves, hut
when the blossoms fall and the plums be-
gin to grow it proceeds to lay its eggs. To
do this it makes a little hole in the ‘side
of the plum with its snout, and in the hot-
tom of this deposits an egg. As the plum
at this time is very hard and is growing
rapidly, the egg would be crushed if noth-
ing further were done. To prevent this
shaped slit part way around the hole in
which the egg has been laid, in order that
the flesh between the slit and the hole may
wilt and become soft, thus saving the egg
from being crushed. Having done this,
the process is repeated in other plums,
each female curculio laying from fifty to
one hundred eggs.
The eggs thus laid usually hatch in a
few days and each little grub thus pro-
duced eats into and around the pit or
stone. Usually the slit and hole on the
surface pour out a gummy substance which
marks where the plum was ‘‘stung.”’
Around the stone the grub feeds and
grows until it has reached its full size,
which usually requires about three weeks.
During this time the plum may have fall-
en off, the plums which are attacked in
this way being very liable to fall early.
Whether the plum be still on the tree, or
on the ground, however, the grub now
leaves it and works its way into the ground
where it becomes a quiet pupa while trans-
forming into the adult beetle, which gen-
erally requires a month or more. The cur-
culio thus produced then finds some
sheltered place in which te pass the win-
ter.
The amount of injury caused by the
plum curculio during 1898 in Pennsylva-
nia has already been stated, but as the
cherry, peach, apricot and nectarine are al-
so attacked by it, the loss by its ravages is
in reality greater than has been indicated.
There are several insects which are the
enemies of the curculio, either by feeding
upon it in its different stages, or by their
parasitic habits. Unfortunately these
friends of the plum grower are rarely suffi-
ciently abundant to he of much service and
the use of various methods of treatment
must be relied upon to insure a good crop.
Three methods are available for the de-
struction of this insect, no one of which is
entirely effective but which in combination
will greatly reduce the loss.
It has been stated that until the plums
are large enough to lay their eggs in, the
adult beetles feed upon the young leaves.
Accordingly, just before the flowers open,
the tree should be sprayed with Paris green
or London purple. To prepare this mix
one pound of the poison with a pound of
fresh lime and add 150 gallons of water,
using only enough of this at first to slake
the lime, and afterwards adding the rest.
After the blossoms have fallen, spray the
tree again. Do not spray while the tree is
in blossom. If peach trees are to be spray-
ed, 250 gallons of water should be used.
A second way of treating this insect is by
placing a large white cloth under. the tree
at morning and evening and suddenly jar-
ring the tree. At these times the beetles
are sluggish and disinclined to fly, but
drop on to the cloth, where they may be
killed. Those who raise plums on a large
scale find it advantageous to tack the cloth
onto a frame sloping towards the centre,
a can containing kerosene. A split on one
side of the frame extending in to the cen-
ter allows the frame to be pushed under
the tree, the trunk passing through the
slit, over which a cloth flap can then he
turned to close it. Such a frame is mount-
ed on wheels and run under the trees, and
where large numbers of trees are treated,
saves much time.
These two methods are for the destruc-
tion of the adult insect. To destroy the
grub, it is advisable to gather all the im-
perfect plums twice a day as they fall, and
burn them, beginning about a week after
spraying the second time. Poultry and
hogs, if allowed to run under the trees,
will also feed on the infested plums and
destroy great numbers of them. These
three methods used together, will enable
the plum raiser to obtain a good crop of
this delightful fruit.
GLORIOUS NEWS.—Comes from Dr. D.
B. Cargile, of Washita, I. T. He writes:
‘Four bottles of Electric Bitters has cured
Mrs. Brewer of scrofula, which had caused
her great suffering for years. Terrible
sores would break out on her head and
face and the best doctors could give no
help but her cure is complete and her
health is excellent.” This shows what
thousands have proved that Electric Bit-
ters is the best blood purifier known. It’s
the supreme remedy for eczema, tetter,
salt rheum, ulcers, boils and running sores.
It stimulates liver, kidneys and bowels,
expels poisons, helps digestion, builds up

An Expensive Bridge.
Mr. Ellen Spotts, whose husband was
killed at Shadle’s mill in Snyder county,
last fall by a thrashing engine breaking
through the bridge, settled with the su-
pervisors of Perry township, last week, for
$800 and all suit costs. This is the acci-
dent which caused the death of Frank
Spotts and Adam Herrold the 17th of Au-
gust, 1898. Suit was brought against the
township by Herrold’s family, and a ver-
dict for damages awarded them by the
court. It pays to keep the bridges and
highways in good condition.
Boy Carried His Severed Arm.
Remarkable pluck was shown by Thomas,
the 11-year-old son of engineer James A.
Doyle, of No. 906 North Tenth street,
Reading, who, while playing around the
railroad, fell under a freight train and had
an arm cut off near the shoulder. The boy
picked up the severed limb and carried it
some distance to a safe place, where he
laid it away. Then he went to a nearby
office and calmly waited while an ambu-
lance was summoned to take him to the
hospital.
