July 10.?Colleetora of forest seeds, particularly on the Pacific coast, are recommend-, ed by tbe U. S. Department of Agrli culture to make certain that the areas in which they work are not tn: fcsted by insects which damage the cones and soeda of cone-bearing i trees. This damage may readily be . sufficient to Interfere seriously with } the profits of seed collecting. It . has been found for Instance, that , much of the white fir seed gathered , recently for use in the western naf tional forests is worthless. In order to avoid, therefore, the waste of time - and money involved in collecting dls. eased seeds, the Department advises s the careful inspecltion of sample s cones. If cones of the paet season - are examined during the winter and spring, they will indicate whether or not their particular area is infest% ed and in July and August, before the seed mature.*, infested cones will e usually reveal immature stages of t tbe insects. In Bulletin N. 95 published under i the title of "Insect Damage to the " Cones and Seeds of Pacific coast Cono Iters." The Department of Agriculture has published information which y will enable the collector to recognize without difficulty the presence of the i- more common cone on seed destroyl Ing insect. The insects which foed r- upon the seeds may be found in alk most any part of the cone or seed t- but with the exception of cone beetv loa nil nit InnAf's arp rarelv seen in o the immature cone. In their Imma n ture stageB, however, these insecU d depend {or their food chiefly upon the cone scales and seedB, doinr it great damage before the seed ripens se in the case of the pine, cono bee 1- tie* and come of the cone wormp kll I- the cone# when small and Immature s. and before the eseds are filled. Dan sf age of this type is easily recognizee te and can be estimated after the mid dl^of July. ConeB affected In thii way aro called blighted. In othei forms of injury, the cone is not kill ed but the seeds are ruined by th> feeding of larvae. Damage of thi 3. kind oocurs In every species of coni tie fer #nd 1b frequently caused by 'at erpillars. In California and Bout^ ern Oregon In 1912, from 5 to 9 per cent of the seed crop of westeri n- 'yellow pine and Jeffrey pine wa ht damaged in this way. although som ht times there was nothing on the sui ed .face of the cone to indicate that : d- was affected. This Is also true of wormy seec caused by the larvae of tiny waspi known as seed cholcldlds. Thee N. feed entirely within the inner linln m- of the seed, which outwardly pn ^ sents a normal appearance. Ordini rlly the only way to detcet the dan age 1b to cut the seed open, when ng will be found hollow with the sma >d- headless maggot-like larvae lyin U'l m |t. Fir suffers especially fro> these inserts. The maggots of fib 'and midges also cause considerab damage to tr cone. *n- ' in looking for the presence St. these various pests, beetles, worm in cholcldlds and maggots, it Is fr quently necessary to cut open 11 ?one. The beetle, It is true, betra itself by a small entrance hole .at ti er base of the cone, with castings w, small pitch ttfbaa, daring the eai hummer. |*tar the oonaa asani rs M rai IIUIM HIS * HEUWIK IB IIIP Reports from the boys of the Sixth Division North Caroline Naval Reserves art to the effect that the boys are having a glorious time.

C., July 10.?The Voting Trust with respect to It stock of Southern Railway Company, which has been In existence since the organization of the company ln'June N 1894, has been dissolved. In giving notice of such dissolution the Vot ; ins Trustees have Issued to the stockholders a circular In which they gay: "Since October 15, 1894, the Voting Trustees under the Voting Trust Agreement have represented certificate holders primarily in the no:-*nation of the Board of Directors and in voting on propositions recommended by the Board of Dircetori for the provision o( new capital for the company. In view of the company*^ " present financial strength, the Voting Trustees believe that the time has now come when they may prop^ erly and safely terminate the Voting Trust. In surrendering their trust to the stockholders the Voting Trustees have the satisfaction of reporting a gratifying development of the system of railroads coincident with the extraordinary and steadily increasing growth in population, industrial development and wealth of the territory served, a development largely due to the activities of Southern Hallway Company in promoting the commerce and industry \long Its lines. "In surrendering our trust, we do 1 bo with confidence that the territory ! served by the Southern Railway Cora pany will continue to increase In population. Industry and wealth, and that the Company will share in 1 such prosperity. From a disjointed ' collection of incomplete single track 1 lines the system will have been de" velpood into an efficient double track 1 ed trunk line for entire main line 1 /rom Washington to Atlanta, with ad: equate shops and terminals at the principal cities of the entire terrlto' ry served by the company, all well 1 adapted to meet the requirement* * of the prosperous and growing comI munitlea which Southern Railway * Company serves. We eommend. therefore, to the stockholders the * continuance of the policy of progresp slve betterment which has been constantly urged by the management e since the organlratio of the compa" ny, and to that end that there shall be lfberal provision of new capital. It is the true policy of the company f to lead, rather than to follow, in the future development of the South n and to maintain its reputation and II Its past achievements In such leader? ship." 11 HTHjL improving.
