Gill, executive secretary of the Loyal Legion of Loggers and Lum- bermen, resigned today, announcing he accepted a call from the T}'yolho- tea of Baltimore, Md., to aid in 8- tablishing an_organization in the printing industry of Baltimore along the lines upon which the Loyal Legion operates among the loggers and lumber- men of the northwest. “The Loyal Legion of Toggers and Lumbermen was a spontaneous growth of the war. resulting from ef- forts in spruce production.” said Mr. “Its plan is based on equal rep- of employers and em- ployes in_the councils of the organi- zation. This idea appealed to the Baltimore Typothetae and members of that organization plan to their body a nucleus for spreading the plan to other cities.” Gill. NEW WARSHIP ENDS TESTS. ROCKLAND. Me.

The work of chewing insects is usually recognized by the ragged or perforated condition of the foliage. The second group. composed of sucking insects. can be controlled by oily or corrosive contact sprays ap- plied directly to the bodies of the in- sects. It is useless o attempt any [ control of a sucking insect by the ap- plication of a stomach poison either to the surface or in the sap of a food plant. The work of sucking insects is not so easily recognized as that of the preceding group since the affected plants show little external injury. Gradual weakening. wilting or shri eling of the attacked plant is gener- ally dvidence of attack by sucking in- sects, The next suggestions by tl.e Ameri- can Forestry Association will tell how certain preparations act.
