ANOTHER OPINION IN WARE SHOALS CARE Judge McCullough Affirms Decision of Special Referee Mclvcr, Greenwood, June 30.?A decision of much interest to many people is that of the special judge. Joseph McCul lough, In the matter of J. O. C. Klein. I tng, J. T. Johnson, N. B. Dial ot al.. against B. 1). Riegel et al.. and Ware Shoals Manufacturing company. In the decision received here today by the clerk of court. W. H. Yclldell, Judge McCullough affirms the conclu sions both of law and of fact as made by Special Referee Edward Mclver ol Cheraw, who heard this case here by appointment about a year ago. The report of the special referee was filed here August 1. 1909, and in it he recommended that the com plaint he dismissed for the reasons stated therein. Hears Arguments? The plaint ill's. represented by Simpson, Cooper & Babb and Stobo Simpson, filed exceptions to the refer ee's report and the matter came be fore .Indue McCullough ;is special Judge at the April term of the court of common pleas. lie heard argu ments on both sides and reserved his decision until today. The defendants, the Messrs. Rie gel and the Ware Shoals Manufactur ing company, of which lt. D. Hiegei is president, were represented by Cothrnn, Dean & Cothrnn of Gre< i vllle and Crier & Park of Greenwood. Contra? t Carried Out. JtldgO McCullough in the decree does not recite the matters of fact, all of which were covered most thor oughly in the referee's report, but tines at once into the ' res" and holds that as to the matter of the election of Mr. Dial as the first president of the defendant company, the contract between himself and the Riegels was carried out. Mr. Dial was continually reelocted president of the company. Tho mat ter of reduced salary was what caused the trouble ami as to this .Judge Mc Cullough says: "It was Mr. Dial's mis fortune that this matter was not care fully guarded by the terms of the eon. tract, which he claims to have made and which is sought to he enforced." Mill Appeal. In conclusion Judge McCullough holds: "The conclusions of the special referee, both as to matter of law and of fact, are affirmed and the excep tions thereto are overruled." This can not be regarded as an end of this famous case, however, as the attorneys for the plaintiffs have al ready announced their intention to carry i; to the supreme court. \ppala? hi,in Exposition.

Tlie time is approaching when effective work for provonting the rav ages of this pest next year can be' , done. Rriefly stated the lite history of this insect is as follows: the small brown ish eggs are laid in the crevices of the bark of in wounds on the base of the tree and also on exposed roots. Thest soon hatch and the small whitish lar vae begin burrowing into the sap and outer layer of wood where I hey con tinue to develope until growth is c heck ed by cold weather. In this condi tion they lie dormant except for an occasional interruption by warm wea ther, until the approach of spr'ng when j feeding is resumed and continued un till about the tenth of June. At this j time the fully developed larva leaves the tree and forms a COCOOI1 or capsule about one inch in length composed ol silk in the soil at the base of tbe tree. In this cocoon the larva passes a quiescent period of about three weeks, filially emerging as a beautiful moth, the male cd' which Bllghtly resembles an ordinary wasp. The beautifully colored female begins laying eggs, for the next generation, soon alter emerg ing about July 10. Approximately speaking, the egg laying period ex lends from July 10 to October I. Dciiictlicnl Measures. If the scdl is hanked around the base of the infested tree to a depth of about ten inches after the larvae; have entered tlie soil for pupation, which j is about June 20, the resulting niotiix will perish in attempting to come to the surface of the mound of earth. Tlie mound should be b it about the ire,, until October l">. which will pre vent female moths from other or. chords, and any possible ones that | may have escaped from laying their eggs on tlie moist portion of the tree. Many of the eggs laid higher up on the trunks of the trees will never hatch, and the larvae of any thai may hatc h can easily be destroyed by carefully going over the orchard with a knife I later in the fall. After October 1.". the mounds may be removed and the upper portion of the roots uncovered during the winter, in order to destroy any borers by exposure should the weather be sufficiently cold. This method has been tried in se veral or chards in South Carolina and found to work admirably. By following these few simple sug gestions we will ho able to improve the quality of our fruit besides add ing greatly to the protection of our j orchards. \V. A. THGaIAS, Stale Entomologist.
