Next to the San Jose Sc^le this is the most do tractive peach insect in the. state. Every Miit grower is familiar with its " work. The time is approaching when effective work for preventing the ravages of 1 this pest next year can be done. J Briefly stated the life history of this in sect is as follows: the small brownish eggs - are laid in the crevices of the bark or in " wounds on the base of the tree and also! 1 on exposed roots. These soon hatch and ; the *niull whitish larvae begin burrowing ' into the sap and outer layer of wood where 1 they continue to develop until growth is ' checked by cold weather. In this condi1 tion they lie dormant except for an occa: sional interruption by warm weather, until j the approach of spring when feeding is 1 resumed and continued until about the ' tenth of June. At this time the fully de" veloped larva leaves the tree and forms a cocoon or capsule about one inch in length composed of silk in the soil at the base of the tree. In this cocoon the larva passes a quiescent period of about three weeks, t finally emerging |as a beautiful moth, the ] male of which slightly resembles an ordi' nary wasp. The beautifully colored female begins laying eggs, for the next generation, soon after emerging, about July 10th. Approximately speaking, the egg laying period extends from July 10th to October 1st. REMEDIAL MEASUKES. If the soil is banked around the base of 1 the infested trees to a depth ten inches after the larvae have entered the soil for pupation, which is about June 20, the resulting moths will perish in attempting to '* come to the surface of'the mound of earth. The mound should be left about the tree e until October 15, which will prevent female - moths from other orchards, and any possible ones that may have escaped, from layn ing their eggs on the moist portion of the e tree. Many of the eggs laid higher up on the trunks of the trees will never hatch, and thi! larvae of any that may hatch can '? easily be destroyed by carefully going over the orchard with a knife later in the e fall. After October 15th the mounds may bo removed and the upper portion of the roots uncovered during the winter, in I order to destroy any borers by exposure should the weather be sufliciently cold. This method has been tried in several ora chart Is in South Carolina and found to ? work admirably. i<'y following these few simple suggeso tions we will be able to improve the qualio ty and quantity of our fruit besides add ing greatly to the protection ??f our orchard.

"The management of the Southern Ball* way Company, has been keeping in close touch with the development of motor oars of various types. Representatives of the Company have inspected these cars In operation under actual service conditions and know what they can do. The first car to be put in service In Greenville 8. Cterritory, is one which the Company tried out throughly about a year ago and found to be admirably sui' 3d, except as to some details of interior arrangement, for service on our lines.
