There is no satisfactory remedy known for
pear blight. The disease is purely local, killing
as far as it goes but leaving all below it healthy
The method pursued by the growers of tue
north has been to cut out the diseased limbs
below the dead part. This does very well where
there are only a few dead branches, but where
blight is scattered over a treo at a hundred diff
ferent points it is scarcely possible to do this
In young orchards and those slightly affected
this should be vigorously carried out. AS far
as possible, ia all cases, Il is advised to
cut out and burn all diseased limbs. Be
careful to burn up every. limb. for, by
so doing you destroy the millions of
microbes contained fnS them, and lessen the
chance for infection next season. IL seems to
be the general ex perienceof the pear growers of
this region, and it has also been in ether states
that the heavily manured and oyer-stimulated
orchards are damaged more by the blight than
others Tits therefore deemed advisable to use
fertilizers with moderation. Only enough to
keep up q moderately thrifty growth. No doubt
much is TO be learned as to the best fertilizer
for this tree. With our present knowledge of
pear blight the above treatment Is all that can

United States Mining Laws.

There are certain general principles of mine
law which may be MENTIONED: All lands of
the United States containing gold, silver,
lead, tin, copper or cinnabar in workable
quantities are mineral lands, and not open to
homestead or presumption entry. Nor does a
land grant to q railroad convey title to min
eral; nor is there any distinction between
surveyed and unsurveyed public land. If
there is mineral in workable quantities in the
land 1t belongs to the locator and miner and
to them only. Second, and most important,
in all cases of doubt, the law is to be con-
strued in favor Of the prospector and
locator The burden Of proof is upon
all who claim title in opposition. Third,
if the land is within known mineral region,
it is presumed to be mineral land, and the
burden Of proof is On those who dispute it.
Even if the land has been thrown open to
settlement, it will be withdrawn from
market at any time before vested rights ac-
crue, upon proof that it is mineral land In
short, the United States government designs
to extend the greatest possible encourage
msnt to prospecting and the development Of
mines, and therefore directs that all doubtful
legal points be construed in furtherancs of
shat design. Ii. Beadle.
