The Weather Bureau conduct- ed fruit-frost work during the cold season this past year in seven other citrus districts, with a trained met- eorologist in charge of- each. In all of these the service was equally satisfactory. During several days of unusually cold weather in south- ern California late in December more than 3,000,000 gallons of oil were consumed in orchard heating. Through the advance warnings of impending conditions, furnished by the Weather Bureau, 175 truck loads of oil and 14 special trains loaded with oil, in addition to the regular scheduled freight service, were rushed into the citrus dist- ricts in two days as an emergency supply to meet the expected unus- ual conditions, ’ Since the close of the frost season in southern California, simi lar work is being conducted in the fruit growers in northwestern deciduous dis- tricts. The fruit all cases contribute approximately one- half the cost of the service. Eee eee CANKER WORM APPEARS IN WESTERN COUNTIES TWO YEARS — Mrs. WALTER E.

These loans are safeguarded by 606,158 acres of land in th state having an appraised valuation on land and buildings of $42,136,- 079 The entire range of farm life is covered in the purposes for which the loans were secured, states the Foundation.

Only 36,- 000 acres in the state are in alfalfa as compared with 962,000 acres of timothy, despite the fact that the latter will yield only 15 tons of hay to the acre to the former's 2.35 tons, the Institute states. Use of imported alfalfa seed to- tally unsuited to corn belt and northern states conditions is believ- ed by the Institute to explain the rather slow progress in acreage be- ing made by this richest of hays. The use of the wrong kind of seed has caused losses of $50,000,- 000 during the past five years to even southwest ger- enough from our own nate well growth may and make a the first heavy fre good during sum- ezing the mer, but when weather comes the weakness of Canker worm moths are appearing | in large numbers in many western | counties of the State, according to T.

Apple orchards which are given the regular sprays of the apple spray schedule will escape injury since the larvae are very. easily killed with poison, Mr. Guyton states. One ap- plication of poison put on at the time of the petal fall of apples is usually enough to control canker worms. This spray should contain 1% pounds of powdered arsenate of lead to each 50 gallons of lime-sul- phur solution. The cultivation of orchards will do much to lessen the number of moths to appear next year since the greater part of the summer, fall and winter is spent by the insect in the ground in the pupal or inactive | stage. | The wingless moth may be caught in sticky bands placed about the trunks.
