less to persons and domestic animals
under ordinary conditions, is poison-
ous to insects. i
Application of this chemical to
peach trees for the control of the
peach borer should be made in the
fall after most of the moths have
finished their egg-laying activities,
to avoid late infestation of the
trees. The time suggested varies
from September 1 as far north as
Michigan, to October 10 in Georgia
and . Texas. The method consists
simply of applying the chemical to
the soil around the base of the tree
in a circular band an inch or two
wide, care being taken that the
inner part of the band is about
two inches from the tree trunk. As
soon as the chemical has been ap-
plied, cover it carefully with sev-
eral shovelfulls of dirt, making a
cone-shaped mound around the tree
trunk by packing the earth with the
back of the shovel.
Under average fall weather con-
ditions most of the chemical under
the soil covering will have evapor-
ated in four to six weeks, killing
from 90 to 100 per cent of the
borers. It is a good practice to re-
move the mounds of dirt some five
or six weeks after application of
the ‘chemical.
The “paradichlor”, in the exper- }
ience of the Bureau of Entomology,
can be used without danger of in-
jury on trees 4 years of age and
over—the dose on 4 and ©§ year
trees being three-fourths of an
ounce per tree, on trees 6 years of
age and older 1 ounce per tree, or,
if the trees are unusually large 1 1-4
ounces may be used.

Disinfection for hog cholera as
it is usually carried out in mis-
leading and often worthless, ac-
cording to disease experts in the
Bureau of Animal Industry, Penn-
sylvania Department of Agricul
ture. This work of disinfecting a
barn or a hog lot is done for the
purpose of destroying disease-pro-
ducing germs and to be effective all
of these germs must be destroyed.
In hog cholera, for xample, all
parts of the carcass of an infected
hog carry the disease and the hog
throws off the germs continually.
The germ of hog cholera can
live in sheltered places outside of
the body for days or weeks, and
in some cases for months and even
years. Since these organisms are

| premises a little strong-smelling sub- |
