A decision was handed down by the
United States supreme court at Washing
ton on Monday on appeals from con v lo
tions under the oleomargarine laws of
Pennsylvania and New Ilamiishire, by
which these laws are declared to be in
valid because they infringe the provisions
of the constitution iu regard to iuter-
ate commerce. There were three cases
f ro n Pennsylvania in which the defend-aut-i
were accused of violating the state
lattr which prohibts the introduction of
oleomargarine into this state. The trial
court held the law to be unconstitutional,
but on appeal the supreme court of Penn
sylvania reversed this decision. The
supreme court of the United State now
sustains tho trial court, and although the
decision only applios to oleomargarine
sent here from other states, its effect will
be to nullify the law for reasons which
areobvions.

It is a Terror.
John P. Holland, inventor of the sub
marine torpedo boat, has offered to de
stroy Spain's fleet in Santiago harbor.
He says: "If the Navy Department will
furnish me with the proper transporta
tion and ammunition I will agree tn
take the entire Spanish fleet. I
have a volunteer crew ready to g with
me and show that we can accomplish a
f a, which no other eugine of war is ca
pable of performing. The Holland could
get int) the harbor without being sighted
by the shore batteries and could make
the run to where the Spauish fleet is at
anchor and with torpedoes blow up every
vessel in sight. If the channels were too
thickly mined, so that the boat could not
pass without striking them, we could ap
proach the miue fields under water and
by exploding torpedoes make for our
selves and the rest of the fleet, if it wish
ed to follow, a clear way. ( nce inside
the harbor our craft could steal up to the
fleet and attack it without warning. The
Holland could go under a warship aud
discharge a torpedo from its forward tube
on the approach and, keeping on its way,
send a parting shot from iu stern tube.
I am convinced that alone and unaided
the Holland could destroy Cervera's fleet
and tie the meaus of saving the lives of
many American sailors." '

THE APPLE WOSX.
Habits of the Inic-ct and How Its Destruc
tion Key Be Accomplished.
The following bulletin, issued by the
Department of Agriculture at Harris'ourg,
gives information regarding the apple
worm or coddling moth which w ill be of
interest to those of our readers w ho are
fruit growers ;
"This insect docs an enormous amount
of damage each year in Pennsylvania.
Figures showing just how much the loss
in the state is are not available, but the
Cornell Experiment Station has made the
estimate that the average crop of apples
in New York is 5,0Ui,OU0 barrels, w hich,
at 81.50 a barrel, would be fT.j'O.il'O. They
estimate that wormy apples form about
one-third of the crop, making the loss to
that state, each year, SVViO.OiO. To this
should be added apples so badly injur
ed by the worms that they fall off before
being gathered. As three quarters of this
loss cau be prevented at little cost it is
certainly worth while for each farmer to
save his share of this sum, aud the time
to attend to the insect is now.
The worm which eats the apple comes
from an egg laid eithor ou the little apple,
the stem, or the leaves near by. These
eggs are laid by a little moth ("Miller")
callod the Codling Moth, whose wings
spread about three quarters of an inch
aud which llira mostly at night. The
eggs are roundish white specks, a little
smaller than a pin head. When they
hatch, the little worm (which is really a
caterpillar) crawls around on the apple,
but after a short time I -eg ins to eat its way
into the fruit. About three quarters of
the worms enter the apple at the blossom
end. The caterpillar works into the core,
where it feeds till it is full grow n, after
which it leaves the apple to find a hiding
place, eithor under the bark of tho tree,
or, if the apple has fallen off, under rub
bish on the ground ; I, ere it changes its
form, spins a caso of white silk around
itself and is quiet for a time, after which
it leaves the case as a little moth, to re
peat this history.
The moth comes out of its resting stage,
as just described, in the spi ing, about the
time the blossoms fall aud the fruit "nets,"
and liegius to lay its eg4. These hatch
in alsmt a week aud then is the time to
kill the caterpillar. The apple at this time
has its blossom end pointing up, and the
little projections there (calyx lobes), are
separate ; a week or ten days later they
draw together. Before they have done
this, but several days after the blossoms
have fallen, the trees should be sprayed
with Paris greeu. This is made by mill
ing one pound with from bit) to "Jul gal
lons of water, and one or two pounds of
fresh slaked lime. This spray, thrown
upon the tree, will fall upon the upturn
ed blossom ends of the apples and be
caught and held iu the space between the
calyx lolies, and when the worm begins
to eat iu there, he is poisonetL After the
calyx lobes draw together it is too late to
spray. If, after spraying, much rain falls
before the calyx lobes close, the tree
should be sprayed again. The mixture
should be kept well stirred while it is be
ing sprayed on the trees.
The moths from the eggs laid in the
spring appear during the last of July and
first of August, to Uy eggs for a secoud
brood. Many of the worms of the first
brood that escaped being killed by the
spring sprayiug can be caught after they
leave the apples and are hunting for a
hiding place, by taking off all the loose,
dead bark from the tree and wrapping an
old cloth around tbetruuk near the lower
crotches. The caterpillars will bide un
der this and can be crushed by hand ;
those which fall to the ground in thetruit
can tie stopped from becoming moths and
laying more eggs by picking up the wind
falls and feeding them out to stock or by
letting sheep or hogs ran in the orchard.
Every caterpillar left to turn into a motii
means more caterpillars later. Theie
need be no fear of poisoning from poison
left on the apples by the spray.- It will all
be washed off by the rains long before the
apples are ripo.
The cost of spraying should not be nioro
than five or ten cents a tree, while the
apples thus saved will be worth many
times this amouut.
This insect also often works in pears
and it would be wise to spray these trees
also.
