THE ORCHARD AND NURSERY. 



From "American Agriculturist," June, 1883. 



(Patented August 29, 1883). 



First, last, and all the time, the orohardist must 

 keep up his fight with insects. Success in fruit grow- 

 ing so largely depends upon the destruction ot In- 

 sects that we teel it our duty to keep this subject 

 prominently before our readers. 



The Codling Moth or Apple Worm.— Hereto- 

 fore it has been supposed that destroying the fallen 

 fruit and trapping, by means of cloths around the 

 trunks, the worms which left the apples remaining 

 upon the tree, were the only helps. The young grub 

 as soon as hatched, eats its way into the center of 

 the little apple, and there "growing with its growth," 

 works its mischief. 



Poisoningr the Worm. — Experiments by some 

 Western Orohardists show that Paris green may be 

 successfully used to destroy the apple worm. Soon 

 after the young fruit is set, the whole orchard is 



showered with water, in which a small quantity of 

 Parris green is stirred, in the proportion of a table- 

 spoonful to a barrel of water. The liquid should be 

 thrown in fine spray, in order to wet every young 

 apple. In its early state, the young fruit is erect, its 

 calyx upward, and the least particle of poisoned 

 water falling upon It is sufScient to destroy the 

 young apple worm when it attempts to eat into the 

 fruit. 



Is It Not Dangerous ?— It will be asked. We 

 do not regard the process as at all risky. Assuming 

 that all the poison falling upon the young fruit 

 could remain until that was ripe, there would be 

 but little danger; but as the rains of months will fall 

 upon the fruit, there is no danger to be feared. 

 Fruit growers look upon this method of treating the 

 apple-worm as a discovery of great value. 



AN INJURY TO APPLE TREES. 



Mr. C. L, Jones, Rush Co., Ind., sends us specimens of a peculiar worm which he says is 

 " doing great damage to young apple trees " in his vicinity, and asks if it is likely to become 

 a serious pest. The insect proves to be what is sometimes called the " Unicorn Prominent " 

 on account of the peculiar horn-like protuberance on the front portion of its back. The worm 

 is reddish brown, with more or less white on its back, and a brown head. It eats almost the 

 whole of the leaf, and where numerous, as in the present case, often does serious mischief, 

 especially to young frees. Early in Autumn the full grown caterpillar descends from the trees 

 and forms a thin cocoon among the fallen leaves, in which it remains until the following 

 spring, when it comes fourth as a moth, which lays eggs for another lot of worms. In the 

 North there is usually but one brood a year, but further south the insect is double-brooded. 

 These insects may be readily killed by spraying the infested trees with a solution of Paris- 

 green or London-purple.
