New Raspberry Pest
A raspberry pest, which is com
paratively new, haa appeared, and
ia liable to do considerable damage
in different sections of Pennsy Ivanir.
Raspberry canes, girdled by this
pest, bsve been received by State
Zoologist Surface, at bia office in
Harrisburg, and in reporting on their
condition, the Professor said:
"They have been girdled by an
insect known aa tbe raspberry-cane
borer (Oberia bimaoulata). The
thing to do ia to out off the twigs
juat below the lower punotnre and
burn them. . This will cause the
plant to throw out aide branches, and
tbe damage will not be so crest. It
ii a comparatively new pest in this
State, and lu some sections is entirely
new It would be well for all rasp
berry growers to onlte for its sup
pression by catting off and bnrning
jbe injured branobes at this time of
the year, as there is praotically
nothing else that can be done to I
check its development and prevent
its spreading."
The Plum Gurculio
A well known Philadelphia attor
ney having a country place, sent to
Professor Surface, the State Zoologist
Harrisburg, specimens of peaches and
apples which indicated, as be express
ed It, that the trees seemed "to re
quire some treatment'.
The Professor gave the following
answer: "The green ieAches and
apples which yon sent to ussre punc
tured by the Plum Curcullo. This Is
a destructive beetle, which makes
hob sin fruit and lays its eggs therein
The eggs hatch and xause wormy
fruit and the worms, also, cause the
fruit to drop prematurely, as you have
oLserved. The best thing to do now
is to gather and burn the fallen fruit
as fast as it drops, or at lea -4 once ev
ery few days. Of course, if there are
n any others in your neighborhood
who likewise have this trouble and
who are not doing the tame, there Is
no need of yon going to that trouble
Neighbors should co operate to elim

would have beeu to spray your trees
with arsenate of lead, using two or
three pounds of arsenate of lead to
fifty gallons of water or Bordeaux
mixture. If you bad done this short

again repeated it In ten days, you

NEWS FROM
WASHINGTON
President Tsft hss wn his fight
f r tsrift revision downward. . The
stand pat" forceaof the Senate and
the House have gone down to defeat.
The unholy alliance between Speaker
Cannon and ex representative Lit.
tauer has come to naught. Tbe cor
porations of the country are to be
made to subject their affairs to the
c ear light of publicity. Justice ia
to done to the Filipinos. The people
will receive some benefit from a gen
uine tariff revision and the Republic
n party, unless tt'a new leader
William Howard Taft has demons! ra.
and a capacity tp pithstatid the
influence of evil and. present a solid
oppi gition to the powerful prenmre
exerted by lobbies of the protected in
terests. Thee arc toe resulia ot tbe
agreement on the tariff bill which
has finally been resched by tbe coh
ferrees and which remains only to be
confirmed, as it unquestionably will
be, by the Republican majorities In
the two houtes of Coiurps.
It required a letter from the Presl
d -nt to the conferrees, in which, in
simple but straighttorward terms he
declaied that if tbe rate on rough
lumber was placed above $1,25 a
thousand feet aud the. rates on
women's gloves were increased a
bove the Dingley law he would "re
ject" the bill, to bring the conferrees
to their senses and Induce them to
provide for that measure of revision
downward which Mr. Taft deemed
essential When the time came to
write the lettet the President did not
hesitate to take the step, however,
and the result is one of which all
Republicans may well feel proud.
The number of reductions contained
in the completed bill is far greater
thafi is generally supposed or than
the public has had an oppertunity to
discover. Chairman Payne baa pre
sen ted the reea'ts In an effective
manner. He shows tbat the dot lea
bsve been lowered on $5,000,000
worth of goods used by the people,
while they have been increased on
$850,000 worth. To arrive at this
comparison he takes the year 1905 as
a basis of comparison which ia entire
ly consistent with the position he has
taken- alt ahrttg THsf trieffguresW
1907 do not present a fair basis of
comparison for the reason that that
was a decidely exceptional year. Mr.
Payne shows, moreover, thtt the In
onascs fall on $579,000 worth of
Inxuries, which constitutes two
thirds of all the increases. In further
exemplification of his contention that
the bill constitutes genuine revision
of thn tariff, Mr. Payne points out
that In a number of instances the
duties were so high as to be prohib
itive, that, therefore, there were no
Importations and in calculating the
reductions now and taking the im
portations oi any year under the
Dingley law as a basis It is impossi
ble to show how much the people
will be benefited because the reduct
ions made will greatly increase the
imporaation of those goods which are
necessities, so that 'figures made
year hence, for Instance, would ahow
a still larger percentage of decrease
on goods used by the people. Tbe
reductions In the metals schedule
should benefit every citizens of the
country for everyone uses metal ia

plow. The rate on iron ore ia de
creased from 40 cents to 15 cents a
