Around jli Orchard^ DAMAGE IS DONE BY TREE HOPPER One of the interesting aud unusual life histories sometimes found among insects is furnished by the Insect known as the buffalo tree hop|»er. Though the eggs of this insect are laid In the burk of the fruit tree by the adult, no feeding Is done on the tree, according .to .1. 11. Bigger, assistant entomologist of the Illinois state natural history survey, which is cooper a ting with the college of agriculture. University of Illinois. In insect control work. When the eggs hatch, the young i drop to the ground aud feed on the grass and weeds by sticking the sap from them. Neither the young nor the adults fet'd on the apple tree. The damage by this Insect is done by the adult which lays her eggs in the cuts In the bark and the twigs and branches, making for this purpose two crescent shaped cuts opposite each other and close together so that they look like parentheses around a small section of the hark. The cuts extend through the cambium layer of the l»ark and cut off the flow of sap, thereby causing starvation of the tree when the cuts are numerous. During the past few years, the buffalo tree hopper has done very serious damage in this way to young fruit trees in Illinois, according to Bigger. Especially is this true in western Illinois, where In some orchards some of the tret's have been so weakened that It was necessary to pull them out. However, there Is no practical spraying practice which can be followed to control the insect, because of its unusual life history. There Is uo spray wnlch will reach and kill the eggs without also damaging the fruit trees, and spraying the grass and weeds with a contact insecticide is not economical. It is recommended that where this insect Is doing damage to the trees, the grass and weeds be plowed up and the soil kept clean for at least one. and preferably two, seasons. during the spring and early summer months. This will starve out ‘the } young of the buffalo tree hopper when ; they hatch and free the orchard of the ‘ pest, after which, with a strong i growth, the tree will be able to re- i cuperate in most cases. Any grower who Is uncertain as to ■ whether his trees are being damaged j j by this insect may obtain more infor- j 1 matlon on this point by writing and sending specimens to the Natural History Survey. Urbana. 111. His Apple Profits Came as Orchard Pests Left A remarkable example of the Influ ence of care on an apple orchard has been brought to light In Sussex county. New Jersey. Back In 1928. Charles Van Stone of Stillwater was getting practically no first-class fruit from his orchard of 100 j trees. Insects and diseases were j causing fruit to he knotty, knurled and , scabby. Finally deciding that the j trees should either hear or he cut j down. Mr. Stone got In touch with I Douglas A. Evans. Warren county's j agricultural agent, to find out what j Could Ik* done to reduce the disease and insect |H*sts. On looking over the orchard Mr. Evans saw that pruning and spraying were Imperative needs and. accordingly, suggested this to Mr. St t»ne. Benefits were realized the very first year. By keeping a careful record of all expenses and receipts iu conm*c Cion with the orchard Mr. Stone fount, that the Improved practices resulted. In a profit of $lO7 that year. The following year saw a continue tlon of the pruning and spraying d In addition, the use of a small quad tity of fertilizer.- The real effects of careful orchard management then t<» gan to show themselves, for In that : second year {1925) the 100 trees returned a clear profit of $1,400. This profit came because of the increases! quantity of large, excellently colored, flue-shaped fruit. Much More Attention to Pruning Is Great Need If the quality of fllinois fruits is <.» j be Improved, much more •Mention must he pah! to pruning than is now j customary. \V. A. Both of the pound ogy division, college of agriculture, rnlverstty of Illinois, says. Inteltl gent pruning not only Improve* the size and color of the fruit, but also aids In lessening Insect aud fungous Injury by m klng it easier !o sprav the trees. The best type of pruning throughout the entire life of a tree ; j consists almost altogether In the re j moval of excess branches. Heading J back should be practiced sparingly < 8 and only utoler special conditions j which definitely call fi>r it. Plow Under Cherry Leaves Plow under the cherry leaves as a means of controlling the leaf spot dls ease, advises the New York experl ment station. Dispose of the fallen leaves before next spring and then spray the trees with a lime-sulphur mixture next spring Just as the petals « fall, with a second spraying two weeks ; later. One gallon of lime-sulphur to j 40 gallons of water Is the proper amount to use on sour cherries and 1 gallon lime-sulphur to 50 gallons of water Is right for sweet cherries. Damage by FieW Mice Field mice do a lot of damage to j young orchard trees. In addition to j putting wire doth guards around the trees and scraping away any trash that may have collected about the ' trunks, • fruit grower should poison j, these pests. A Uttle of the poisoned | grain is put by each tree and them j covered with a shingle or board I weighted down. If one edge Is propped ! up the mice will find the halt but the j birds and chickens will not be able j to get «t it 1
