Fruit Growers Urged te Take Precautions Against Canker Worms. Topeka, Kan., March 31.--In view of the ravages of Kansas orchards last year by canker worms, the State Horticultural Society is taking ex- traordioary precaution against the pest this season. It is known that the eggs were deposited in nearly every fruit county in the state last year, and already the female moths are makiog their appearance in great numbers this sprivg. President Wellhouse says that every fruit grower should be in readiness to spray the trees just as soon as the foliage appears. The worm, when hatched, is so small as to be inde- scribable, and feeds on the leaves and buds of the fruit treea until full grown. When grown it drops to the ground, and digs its way into the etrth, there to remain until it again appears as a moth the followicvg spring. The canker worm, when full grown, is but little over an inch in length, and is of the “meas: *>z” variety. It isa dark olive green in eslor, with a black, shining head, aod has the fuculty of spinning a fine silken thread, by the aid of which it often euspends itself from the foliage. The worms are hatched about the time the first foliage ap- pears on the fruit trees and contin ues growth until about the middle of May, when they drop from the trees and go into the ground. Presi- dent Welihouse recommends spray- ing witha solution cf arsenic and sondon purple, the spraying to be done as soon as foliage begins to appear. A Beacon of Hope.
