Clemsou College, August 1. ? At this season dead twigs may often be notlc' ed in the peach orchard, and examina tion wilt show that holes in the bark similar to those made by shooting a load of No. 8 shot into a tree. These holes are made by the fruit bark beetle when laying eggs, the young working In the sap wood. This is among the worst pests of the fruit trees. The burk beetle attacks trees fol lowing some injury or other cause that weakens the tree. For example, a limb wholly or ipartly broken off In orchard work, is weakened and imme diately attacked by these peats. The same trouble may be caused by permit ting brown rot to stay on the trees. Other common causes that weaken trees and bring about an infestation by this pest are the peach tree borer and the San Jose scale. * ' Whether the orchard Js large or small, it ;is very important that the trees be watched with some diligence advises Prof. A. P. Conradl, entomolo gist. As soon as an injured limb Is dis* covered it should be taken out and burned. Where brown rot occurs and causes twigsylo rot, the . affetfted fruit should be removed, together with the Injiycd twigs, and absolutely destroyed.

' ' ; ? '' V; ; ' ALCOHOL FROM THE JUNGLE? May Yet Be Economically Manufac tured From Mo'ift Vegetation of Tropical Forests. We clutch at anything as a substl-. tute for gasoline. Professor NVhltford of ,11a* Yale school of forestry says that alcohol could be economically , manufactured from the moist vegeta tlon of tropical loivsts and jungles. "The evidence is conclusive," said Pro fessor Whit ford, "that tire tropical sun has the power to store up more energy In the form of cellulose in a given time than has the temperate sun. If this is In a utllly.uhle form It re mains for liitr ingenuity of man to overcome the difficulties of profitably < applying Jt. With the Increasing needs of the nation It Is reasonable to ex pect that sooner or later It will be necessai^ to utilize more fully the plant resources of the tropica." Professor Whit ford said that the an nual production of alcohol from the nipa plant in the Philippines was now nearly 3,000.000 gallons and that one distillery there had produced 98 per cen,t alcohol at a cost of about 20 cents a gallon, and If operated to full capacity could make it at a cost of 15 cents a gallon.? Scientific Ameri can. _ ? Reverting Speech. A curious phonographic iustrumeut was invented by Ponlseu, capable of re versing the sounds of a word or a sen tence. A steel piano wire, carried on two spools, passes between the poles of a small electromagnet so connected with a telephone transmitter that spo ken words are magnetically, recorded on<the moving wire and reproduced in a receiving instrument* When the mo tion of the wire Is direct, the words ar?' heard as In ordinary conversation, but if the motion is reversed, the sounds come to the ear in reverse order, like words spelled backward. To represent the order In which the reversed sounds strike the ear, however, not only must the order of the letters composing a word be reversed but each letter must Itself be reversed from right to left, as when reflected In a mirror. ?
