observations ana experiments in bud
ding the peach on plum stocks, all
imaginable care being taken to secure
healthy stocks and buds, are given; the
object being to obtain trees, If possible,
capable of resisting infection. The out
come of these experiments is encourag-
ing thus far.
A striking example of tree catching
the yellows after long immunity is re-
lated. The tree was Seeding, which
came up back of an old shop on the
farm of James S. Harris, near Still
Pond, Nd, in 1854. In 1866 it was re-
moved to a sod lawn, isolated, from
other peach trees, and budded from a
neishboring tree; there being no yell
lows in the vicinity at the time. The
tree has been hardy and productive. II
grew to height of 25 feet, with trunk
nearly foot in diameter. In 1890 this
tree, then SO years old, developed un-
mistakable symptoms of yellows on one
small limb. The diseased limb and the
adjoining healthy one were removed,
and, when last examined by the writer,
on July gath, 1901, the remainder of the
tree showed no symptoms of the disease.
DIR. Smith considers, as the result of
his experiments and observation, the
following facts established:
First. The disease is contagious.
Second. 1t may be conveyed by
seemingly healthy buds when taken
from diseased trees.
Third. Only very small amount of
infective material is necessary, pro-
vided 1t be in the forms of living cells,
which can be induced to unite with the
actively growing tissues of the tree.
Fourth. The disease has longer
period'of incubation than we have been
accustomed to suppose.
Fifth. The death of the entire tree
occurs, ordinarily, only after very
considerable period, i. O., several years.
To these he adds several "hypotheses
rendered probable;" one of which is
that the disease is also communicated
to budded trees in some other way than
by bud incubation.
Experiments with treatment by diff
ferent kinds of fertilizers are in progress
and three special lines of inquiry are
now under consideration. These are
~ The period of incubation of the
disease prior to its first appearance, i. O.,
the greatest length of time a tree may
be affected before it shows any symp-
toms of yellows.
(2) The exact nature of the contagion.
(S) Its method of spread other than by
bud incubation.

Congressman Holman believes in
practising the motto; "Pay as you 60,
and, if you can't pay, don't CO." The
people of Minneapolis, with a philan-
throphy very creditable to them, have
contributed shipload of flour for the
relief of the destitute in Siberia. Presi-
dent Harrison sent special message to
Congress, asking that body to provide
for the transportation of this relief TO
husband the Senate promptly adopted
Joint resolution authorizing the Secre.
tary of the Navy to charter vessel for
that purpose, at an expense not exceed
ing 100000. When this resolution
came into the House that body sat down
on 1t. Congressman Holman, chairman
OF the committee on appropriations,
moved to strike out the appropriation
clause, which, after discussion, was
agreed to BY a vote of 1866 to 70, and
the resolution was then indefinitely
postponed. Some of the Republican
journals, fresh from memories Of the
Billion Dollar Congress, denounce this
action of the Democratic House as
cheese-paring parsimony, reproach to
humanity, and so on. But the Phila-
delphia Ecensng Telegraph, while going
as far as any of the others, in deploring
the "pitiable and mortifying-depth Of
meanness which our country never
touched before is forced to admit that
Congress is right, The government is
50 wretchedly poor that it cannot spare
the money it would cost to send a naval
vessel to Russia" And the T6legraph
adds.
Ihetreasury can not pay its honest debts

under the circumstances TO incur. We

fence when there is money enough in the
nuDllc purse to meet imperative obliga-
tions. At present there is not. As Repre-
sentative Dockery stated i'll the discussion
before the House yesterday, the outstand-
ing demands against the treasury on an
proprlatlons yet unpaid amount to S65.-
Wn,uVo, and TO meet these demands there
remains available only triile over 500
100000. The treasury is, therefore, prac-
tically speaking, short at the beginning Of
the year nearly s45,0OO,000, and besides
this shortage has the default in the sinking
fund to make UP, amounting to $40, O0O. 600
more. IT is a grievious thought that this
government which but now was bur
dened with surplus of Sl00. 900, has
not to-day a penny to help friend with;
but that is the cold fact, and Congress was
right in refusing to spend what we haven't
got.
