Of all the insect pests and dis
eases that cut into the proti'.s of the
American farmer severely, tnere are
relatively few of the more important
ones that are native to tile United
-States, lake many other baneful
things, insect pests and diseases have
followed the course of civilization.
They are carried in many ways from
one country to another, and it is the
work of the department of agricul
ture to iruard the United States
atrainst their entry and to prevent
their spread once they make their
appearance here.
While many of the pets h iv- come
'r m European countries, A.-i:i has
- -'i ributed its share of them. Prom-
I'-nt -monsr these for its destructive
activities is the San Jose scale, which
made its first appearance in the
United States forty or fifty years
ajro, having made its way here froim
C'hina. It became
widesnread i
throughout the Unitec
States in the i
late nineties, and at the present time
there is practically not a commercial
deciduous orchard in. this country
that does not haVe to be sprayed once
a year to control this pest.
Some idea of the burden which this
insect puts uno nthe orchardists of
th eUnited States can be had when i -'l-'iali.vt consistently accept them?
it is realized that the expenditures! This view may accurately repre
for apparatus and spraying amount ' "r1t Miss Alice Paul and Margaret
to approximately $10,000,000 an-! Hatfield, who repudiates even the
nually. In addition to this are the I prefix "Miss," because she says it
losses that the insect causes in spite means "womanlet," and she is no
of this control treatment, and they hthinir. and some of the other

where spraying is not commonly prac- J elude that the average new voter

ly has cost this country during its : woman's o!-her special privileges
presence here UDwards of & 1 00.000.-1 along with her ballot. As for the

The oriental peach moth, which
gained entry in 1912 with imported
oriental cherry trees from Japan, has
just begun its spread and depreda
tion. It affects practically all decid
iuous fruits and bids fair to be. as de
structive as the ewell-known codling
moth, the cause of wormy apples.
The Japanese beetle, brought in
about the same time as the peach
moth, has already gained such firm
foothold that in view of its habits
and prolonged flight it is probably
incipable of extermination, and may
ultimately overspread the United
States. It attacks not only practical
ly all fruits, but also many garden
vegetables and corn. Attempts to
check the spread of this pest are be
ing made by means of Federal and
local quarantines, particularly in
New Jersey. Under this quarantine
, the government maintains a supervis
ion over the movements f articles
likely to carry the pest from infected
areas to other sections of the coun
try. Another foreign peat m com
paratively recent years which has
made its appearance in this country

Specialists of the department are
now considering steps for guarding
against this new source o.' danger.
Mexico has contributed its share of
insect pests that are now estan i-hed

American cros. Chief anions these
; are the boll weovii. the pink boll
worm and the little Mexican beetle,
known as the bean ladybird. The

DOWN WITH GALLANTRIES
( W i nst on - Salem .Journal )
Croat changes in the present rela
t i lis between men and women are to
com", if the feminists have right of
way, according to a Washington dis
patch referring to the bill of rights
to be drafteil by the national conven
tion of women voters' which Alice
Paul, head of the aNtional Woman's
Party, announces for February next
in the Federal capital.
Not only will this convention re
pudiate the "branding" of women
with their husbands' surnames, but
will seek to abolish all the "so-called
t,allantries." The "combined femin
ist voice" will be raised against "this
stuff taught the innocent prirl that
when a man doffs his hat to her, rises
in her presence, etc., he is expressing
innate respect for noble woman
hood." Pooh! "Only the harem
women want men to commit these
so-called gallantries," says Margaret
Hatfield, who refused to become an
erased identity bv bearing her hus-
hand's surname of Chase. Of the
foolish gallantries this fully emanci
pated woman says- further: "The
tired business man finds them a nui
sance. So does the self-respecting
woman. They are regarded as spe
cial privileges granted women. How
can a woman who demands full
women who are innitlerent or op
posed to the naiiot, it is quite prob-
able that no few of them will con-1
tmue to consent to te branded
with their husbands' surnames and
even to wear that "relic of barbar
ism," the wedding ring. At any rate,
we shall see.
STRIKE" OF WHEAT RAISERS
BEING WATCHED
Grain operators, market officials
and State boards of agriculture"
throughout the southwest are watch
ing closely for the effects of a re
ported "strike" of wheat raisers who,
it was said, were refusing to ship
their product to terminal markets un
til a basic price of ?3 a bushel for
the wheat was realized.
The "strike," called recently by
the National Wheat Growers Asso
ciation in a proclamation urging
members to withhold their wheat
from market until the $3 price was
obtained, was declared by W. H. Me-
Greevy, secretary of the organiza
tion, to be in full force. JVir. mc-
Greevy. in his statement, asserted
the association membership of 70,000
was unanimous in its intention, not
to sell, and predicted that the de.
sired price would be realized within
90 days.
