[ Halsey, secretary of the Senate, an
\ nounces.
f The President will review the pa
rade in a glass enclosed stand—the
Court of Honon—patterned after the
Hermitage home of Andrew Jackson

chants are eager to employ the same
design in their decorations.

Clean Up Orchards To
Control Codling Moth
“Don’t blame the weather or your
spray materials for that big pile of
cull apples in your orchard this fall.
“If you had sprayed properly and
carried out other control measures as
you should, codling moth infestations
wouldn’t have been so bad,” said H.
R. Nisiwonger, extension horticulturist
at State College.
Growers who were careful to keep
the moths and worms down made
good crops of fruit, he added, and
what they ydid this past year other
growers can do next year.
The first step in controlling the
moth is to clean up the orchard and
packing house now that the harvest
is over.
All dropped fruit under the trees
and all culls around the orchard and
pocking house should be removed or
buried in a trench. This should be
done as soon as possible.
The last brood at worms leave the
infested apples and hibernate in the
ground, under loose hark, and in
cracks in the apple crates or in the
padring house. a
Scrape loose bark off the trees and
burn it. Examine all crates and all
crevices in the packing house for
worms. Destroy the worms as fast
as they are found.
Scout around the edge of the or
chard for worthless or neglected
apple trees. Such trees are often
skipped at spraying time and thus re
main as breeding places for the moth.
Make the packing house moth-tight
so that even if codling worms survive
the winter inside, the moths will not
be able to get out to infest the trees
in the spring.

feed is available.
Even if some green feed is avail

access to it, as most of them will be
confined in houses to protect them
against severe cold.
To keep birds in good health and
to maintain egg production, add five
per cent dehydrated alfalfa leaf meal
to their mash, said Roy S. Dearstyne
head of the State College poultry de
partment.
Keep a close check on the body
weight of layers, he continued, as
heavy autumn egg production tends
to drain their weight and vitality.
Give more scratch feeds if they are
under weight, but reduce the amount
of scratch feed if they are too fat.
Excess fat is not good for the birds.
Neither is it advisable to waste
money on ovei-feeding.
Dearstyne added that it is not too
early , to start thinking about next
year’s feeding program. “If you
have land suitable for growing scratch
feet’s, plan to raise your own and
save the expense of buying it. This
'\->Ti increase your profits.
“TFs year’s high prices should
point "-out more strongly than before
the importance of producing scratch
feed at home when possible.”
He also asked, “Are you satisfied
with the performance of this year’s
flock? If not plan to replace your
birds with better stock.
“In many instances, poultrymen will
step out ahead if they do no breed
ing from their present flocks, but
replace their birds in the spring with
highly bred chicks from a reliable
source.”
