The San Jose Scale In South The> San Joes (San Hozay) scale is the most peruicicus in sect pest of fruit and shade trees iu South Carolina.

The Divi sion of Entomology of the South Carolina Experiment Station has repeatedly emphasized the fact in the presa that there is no * • necessity for cutting down or otherwise destroying a tiree merely because it is infested with $an Jose scale nnleae the tree is so far gone that it has not enough vitality left to recover after the scale is killed.

Carolina. It is the aim of this cilice to t>e as useful as possible to the farmer--, truck growers and ftuit growers all over the State. We are aware that the losses occasioned by insect pests ire enormous every year. In Older to prevent such* losses it is necessary for this Division aud the citizens of thebiate,especial ly the agricultural workers, to como as near together, aud work as closely iu harmony as possible. In the regular correspondence with farmers a large number of letters contain complaints about serious injuries caused by wire worms and whit* grubs. These two problems confront the far mers every spring and summer. As there ia no specific that c«n be recommended against these pests we must depend on gener al methods of farm practice . A good svsiem of farm practice is infinitely better than all the sprays and nostrums so ofteu recommended. While the far 1 ! mer thinks ahead and plans his course of procedure for the pur pose r.f nibintaiuing soil fertility or regaining it when lost, he rarely asks hirmelf the question, what course most I pursue to avoid insect injury to the crop lam intending to plant, dhe complain's about injurious in sects reach ns when the injury is actually beim: done and w’heu often no practicable remedy or preventa'ive can be recommend ed.

As the month of September has been unusually gay I will send in a few items. © o Among« the prominent events enjoyed, none have proved more delightful or thoroughly enjoyed than the ice cream festival given at the Adam’s Run school house Wednesday evening Septem ber 30. Ouite a large crowd assem bled there to enjoy the ice cream and beautiful cakes which was daintly served by the Misses Linder, who were ably assisted by Mrs Charles Platt and Mrs T. Schutlifte. A contest was held for the pret tiest and most popular young lady to win the prize. Miss Marie Fox won the prize a handsome fruit cake. The next prize was awarded to Miss Nancy Newton. Those who held the next lucky numbers were as follows Miss Ethel 5 m th, Miss Lake Martin. Oscar Hill. Mr Carter, Mason Platt, Miss Nonie Dodd. Owing to the rainy weather not as large a crowd was present as were expected. This occasion was given for the benefit of the Methodist church. The sum collected was the amount of $38.85.
