Save Your China Trees.

The Aberdeen Examiner says: SIT may
not be generally known that the China
tree furnishes material for furniture that
is almost equal to mahogany in beauty
and durability. We have also been in
formed by our cabinet makers, who have
used it in the manufacture of bedsteads,
that tits absolutely proof against vermin.
In other words, that bed bugs will not
come near a bedstead made from the
wood of China tree" The China tree
grows very rapidly, and on any kind of
soil, and itmight be good idea to plant
your old worn out fields in young China
trees for future use.-Southern Farm.
More than this can be said in favor of
the China tree. 1t is a handsome shade
tree, and when young has no equal for
symmetry and beauty
The berry is often used in the manufac-
ture OF soap, and some say it is prefera-
BILE to animal fat in some cases. The ber-
ries are, also, an excellent insecticide and
fertilizer
The leaves, when dried and packed with
dried fruit, field peas, etc., keep them free
from worms and weevils. The cultivation
of the China tree should receive more at
tentiOn.

wigs and branches In rainy seasons
this is quite apt to occur, especially if the
rotting fruits are allowed to remain upon
the tree He also finds that the fungus
lives over winter in the decayed fruits, and
in this way is reproduced year after year.
In the spring these dry, wrinkled fruits,
which have been left upon the earth or
still cling to the branches, swell and soften
under the influence of repeated rains, and
produce a new crop of spores exactly like
those of the previous season. The practi-
cal Importance of this discovery is very
great. Could the blighUed twigs and
rotted fruits of one season be entirely de-
strOyed the fungus would disappear and
the rot with it. The more nearly COM
plete this removal of infectious material
can be made the safer will be the succeed
ing crop. During the growing season the
fungus produces innumerable spores and
spreads it's Infection very quickly. For
this reason, all rotting peaches should be
removed from the trees and buried or
burned, as soon as discovered. This can be
done during the picking season without
much additional expense; but it may fire.
quently be necessary to do it before the
fruit is ripe, if the grower would save any
portion of it in a marketable condition
Finally, not a single rOtted fruit should
be allowed to winter over. All must be
destroyed. Ii fruit growers would unite
and follow this method systematically
for a series of years, the losses from peach
rot would be reduced to incOnsiderable
proportions. These remarks apply also
to the rot of plums and cherries which is
caused by the same fungus, known tech
nically as Monilla fructigena.
To satisfy probable demand from par
ties especially interested in the subject

lished separately from the Journal in
which they appear and either of them will

Peach Rot and Pear Blight.

In the September issue OF the Journal
of Mycology, published quarterly Dy the
section of vegetable Pathology of the U.
S. Department of Agriculture, DR.. Erwin
F. Smith contributes paper on "Peach
rot and peach blight" embodying the re-
suit of his observations in Michigan,
Maryland, Delaware, and other peach
growing sections of the United States.
The loss from peach rot is often enormous,
some years amounting to nearly the en-
tire crop. At all times it is considerable.
In 1888 on the Delaware and Chesapeake
peninsula the loss during one week
amounted to nearly half "a million dollars.
The loss this year was also serious.
The disease is due to a parasitic fungus
which produces many small ash gray
tufts on the discolored surface of the rot
ting fruit. These tufts consist principally
of spore dust, which iscarried by animals.
washed by rains, or blown about, and
causes the rot to develop in sound peaches
whenever it falls upon them under proper
conditions. The most favorable condi-
tions for the termination of the spores
and the rapid spread of the rot are hot
and moist weather.
DR.. Smith finds that this fungus also
causes a very characteristic blight OF the

Every community has its quacks,
who pretend to cure the incurable, and
TO do everything else short of raising
the dead. The Whitehall Review re-
lates the story of such a man, q bone
setter of the north of Scotland.
A country lad had his leg injured at
the factory, and was treated for some
time by the local doctor without much
favorable result. His mother had
great faith in the bone setter, and
wanted her son to go to him; but the
boy objected, preferring, as he said,
the 'treg'lar faculty.
Finally, however, he yielded to his
mothers persuasions and was taken to
the town where the famous bone set
ter resided
The leg was duly examined, and it
was found necessary to pull it very
severely, in order ''to get the bone in"
as the quack expressed it. The patient
howled in agony, but at last the bone
was got in" and he was hidden to go
home. In a few days he would be all
right, and could resume work.
Didn't he do it well7" said the joy

Nails are sold nominally by the
thousand but, of course, they are not
counted: Each size has a given desig-
nation by weight, which is supposed
to be equivalent to a thousand, if
counted. Thus there are s o., IL
o., 16 o., 2 lbs, A lbs, and SO on,
each representing a different size.
The phrase 40 pound nails" was first
corrupted into 40 pun nails" from
which it was easy to get ''tenpenny."

his man servant half a crown, to pay
for three tenpenny nails, under the

We offer no apology for devoting so much time
and attention to this much neglected class of
diseases, believing that no condition of human
ity is too wretched to merit the sympathy and
best services of the profession to which we be-
long, as many are innocent sufferers, and that
to relieving the afflicted and saving
them from worse than death, is no less a
phllanthrophist and n beneiactor TO his race
than the surgeon or physician who by close ap-
plication eXcels IN any other b anch of mis- pro

disastrous because it has been more

affair which suggests TO US the probable

real and personal property. Such is the
news, however, which comes to us from
Seattle, the principal city of Washing
ton Territory. The details of the fire
which leaping from building to building,
from street to street, and wiping out
block after block, brick yielding like
finder to the merciless flames. recalls
the memory of the great fire in Chicago
and the Boston fire of a later date.
Factories, founderies, sawmills, ship.
yards, warehouses, banking houses the
homes of the rich and the homes of the
poor-all have shared common fate;
and fresh call is made upon us for the
exercise of Christian benevolence and

The call will be respo~ ded to. Our

On the morning of June 18th, 1889, be-
tween six aud seven o'clock, at his home
in North Bennington, Deacon Eli B,
Henry died very suddenly from heart
failure. His health, for some years, had
been gradually failing, so much so that
he had long since given up active bust
ness, but his mind retained its vigor to
remarkable degree. Although feeble in
body, he kept himself well posted on
current events, and took great interest
in whatever concerned his immediate
friendsa and neighbors, and the well-being
OF all mankind. He arose, the morning
of his death, dressed and prepared for
breakfast, and while alone in his room
fell upon the floor. The noise of the fall
attracted attention, and soon loving
hands raised him from the floor and
placed him upon his bed, where he
breathed but few times when life be-
came extinct.
Deacon Henry was born Oct. 9Th, 1904,
in the same room in which he died, hav.
ing lived the greater part of his life in
the same house. He married for his
first wife Miss Jerusha Clark Loud,
daughter of Capt. Loud. of Westhamp-
ton, Mass, Nov. 9Th, 1888. This estima-
BILE lady died July 18th, 1916. OF this
marriage there were born three children,
two daughters and one son, two Of whom
died in infancy. He married for sec
ond wife Miss Elizabeth Riddle of Ben.
nington. Sept, Goth, 1S46, who died Feb.
10Th, 1884. OF this marriage there were
born four sons, two of whom. E. Morris
and Berthe T., are still living, also Mary
H., daughter of his first wife, whose
writings, over the name of Howe Ben
ming" are well known and highly ap-
precIated as valuable contributions to
! Sabbath school literature. These three
are all the children who survive an hon
ored and much loved father.
Mr.. Henry was son of the late Hon
William Henry, and one of seven child
rem, five girls and two sons, only one of
whom, William G. Henry, OF Detroit,
Mich, still survives, and is now in his
SD year.
In the death of Deacon Henry Ben
nington loses an old and highly respected
citizen, his church faithful christian
worker, his children a kind and ever
watchful parent, and the world an hon
est man and Christian gentleman, the
example of whose life cannot fail to
prove rich legacy to all who cherish
