woolly iiiiiterial, which is very notice- 

 able and gives the popular name to this 

 species. This aphis is the only one in- 

 testing the a])ple that attacks the roots 

 ill addition to the parts above ground. 

 The damage caused by this insect has 

 been so widely recognized, particularly 

 on nursery stock and young trees, that 

 several states have passed laws against 

 its introduction into or toleration with- 

 in the state. The woolly apple-aphis, 

 unlike the green and rosy apple-aphis, 

 Ijrel'eis the bark to the foliage or fruit. 

 The roots, trunk, branches and twigs 

 are attacked. Small blister-like swell- 

 ings are caused on the jjarts attacked; 

 this does not always occur, however, 

 on the twigs. Roots may be so covered 

 with these growths as to cause the 

 death of young trees. Infested twigs 

 sometimes crack, .giving entrance to 

 fungus spores and bacterial diseases. 

 In the spring the plant lice that have 

 spent the winter in cracks of the bark 

 or in wounds become active and attack 

 new, tender bark on young or old parts 

 of the tree. Some of the individuals 

 that have passed the winter at the base 

 of the tree or on the roots will like- 

 wise move to the parts of the tree above 

 ground and assist in the attack. Many 

 of the plant lice on the roots remain 

 there the year round. 



A Sure Way to Keep Your Tobacco 

 Supply Always Fresh and Pipe-fit 



Used to be that a man had to contend 

 with smoking dried-out tobacco that 

 burned like firebrands and seared the 

 everlasting lining out of his mouth, but 

 not so today. Now he can keep his 

 supply just as fresh and fragrant a 

 month or more afterward as it was the 

 day he got it. 



A fine scheme to keep the goodness 

 in the tobacco from first to last pipeful 

 has been hit upon by the R. J. Reynolds 

 Tobacco Company, of Winston-Salem, 

 North Carolina, the makers of Prince 

 Albert tobacco. It's a crystal glass 

 humidor with a removable top held on 

 by a patented band that makes it air- 

 tight. There's a sponge in the top to ' 

 keep the tobacco always pi|)e-fit. The 

 makers pack a pound of Prince Albert 

 in this container and you can buy one 

 at almost every store that sells tobacco. 



Almost every smoker this side of the 

 Gulf has seen or heard something about 

 Prince Albert. It's known all over the 

 States as "the national joy-smoke," be- ■ 

 cause a man can smoke as much and as 

 hard as he likes without ever having 

 any sore tongue or throat worries. 

 Simi)ly doesn't nip, that's all. Had its 

 "teeth" i)ulled out by a iiatented process 

 controlled exclusively by the Reynolds 

 people. 



At present, a series of quaint and in- 

 teresting advertisements is running in 

 this publication. Everyone of them is 

 chockful of that happy, good-natured 

 P. A. spirit that makes a man look for ■ 

 the next one just natural-like. You'll ■ 

 sure be interested in them; keep a look- 

 out.— [Adv.]
