TOPEKA, Jan. 13.-Both houses met
again this morning, apparently more de-
termined than ever to hold the fort. Sew
eral Populists, convinced that their posi-
ton is untenable, have made futile at
tempts to break away from the radical
wing and act with the Republicans, but
the pressure on them to remain in the
ranks is too great. The Republicans in
sist that they will not leave the hall ex-
cept on the display of force. Finally at
noon both houses agreed to adjourn till
o'clock. This was done at request
from the Governor that a committee
from each house wait upon him.
At 4 o'clock both houses reassembled.
but by mutual agreement adjourned i'm
mediately until $50 O'Clock tomorrow
morning.
In spirit of conciliation the Republi-
cans withdrew the application filed yes
terday in the Supreme Court for man
damus against Secretary of State Osborne.
The Populist leaders have proposed a
plan for settling the House squabbles,
proposing that the Populists concede the
legality of the Republican organization:
that committee composed of Populists,
Republicans and Democrats be appointed:
that no legislation be attempted at first
except the creation of commission to
consider all contest cases, its findings to
be conclusive, and the House, as consti-
tuted by its findings, to decide which of
the presiding officers is official. The Re-
publicans have not yet accepted, but a
compromise is possible.

MT been as extensive In this line as
Mr.. Beams, and | would like to herr
from him on the subject, but l will tell
ago, when took charge of Mr.. Stetson's
interests in Florida, he had the foot rot
in nearly every tree in about ten acres.
Of course did not know the conditions
that brought around that disease. do
know how the land had been treated,
and don't wonder at the result. un-
derstand that there were some six inches
of stable manure put upon the grove,
and not being satisfied with that he put
Oh heavy coating of cotton seed meal,
and that was the way the grove was
treated for three years, and he went
far enough to dig trenches between the
rows and put in stable manure, etc.
Of course we have tried val ious methods,
and at the present time there is no act
i've foot rot in the grove, but just what
did it l cannot answer, and do not at
tempt to answer. Through the advice
of Mr.. Bean we have used very extern
sively his insecticides and they have
helped us. We have also treated it to
wash made at Sanford. We dug out
around all the trees, cut off all the
diseased parts we could find, including
the roots, and used this wash extensively,
and the roots were left exposed for
II, al nj
tar, and the result is favorable. Have
no foot rot in the grove where year
ago we had plenty of it.
MANvILLE: | understand you have
moved q old rumber of large trees.
What has been the result?
HAMLIN: Very favorable. We took
out trees fourteen or fifteen years old
and moved them and there is no sign of
temperance of foot rot in the trees
that we have moved except in four or
five instances, nd in those cases the
trees were almost dead, and we found
no small feeding roots there, and that
was the case all through the grove when
we began. Now find that all through
that grove where the trees have been
removed that those roots have formed.
and the trees that have been removed
are doing remarkably well. Whether
or not there will Ibe temperance of
that disease it is to- early to say.
These trees were moved about eighteen
months ago, and we moved something
like FIVE hundred that were affected to
some extent. We had really no practi-
C Il difficulty in moving those trees
after we got at it. We had a very large
cart made resembling a log cart. We
dug around the trees and then hitched
onto them with chains and ropes and
into the new place and then put plenty
of water on them and they began to
grow right off. We trimmed them back
to the stumps. Those trees have not
lifted them from their place and put them
come back to bearing yet, but some Of
them are in bloom now. They are put
ting on good crop now and ii they
keep on growing as they are now in
another year they will be half as large
as they originally were. When we be-
gan to dig we dug five or six feet from
the tree AMI left as much of the roots
as possible. The effect has been very

case with which I can verify it. In orr
der to accomplish anything the soil
must be impregnated with substance
that will destroy the worm in the root.
One party writes me that he turned his
spray nozzle down in the ground and
filled the ground full with his spray
pump. While it has never been under
my personal observation, think that
would be the only possible way of reach
ing the difficulty. The whole ground
must be kept saturated. This costs
money and so do the trees. / don't sup7

grove about two or three years ago con-
sisting of five hundred trees, set twenty
feet apart and every one had thefootrot.
The ground was very low and had been
ditched. They had tried everything they
could hear of as a remedy, had uncOv-
cred the roots, and it would check the
disease for time then it would reappear
again. The party came to me and | told
him | thought under the theory /
had that it worth while to try the article

versation drove out to see the grove,
and it looked so badly that it seemed to
be a hopeless Undertaking, and tried to
tell him afterwards that guessed he had
better not try it. He went on, however,

visited it again in about q year and
found that the trees were about as well
covered as others 10 the neighborhood.
After studying Meals report on Anguil
lula l had reached the conclusion that
this must be a root disease. That the
anguillula had made it's entries into the
hot ha ,feoo Hol
by it was simply starving to death, and
it was upon this theory that we made
no signs OF the return Of foot rot and
the party in charge says that he regards
it as permanent cure. 1t is reported to
me that we have found the same effect in
pineapple producing the blight. and [
want to suggest to my friend Williams
that possibly it may be the same cause as
the blight on the orange. That the two
were somewhat Identical. That are both
root diseases because of this insect bed
ding himself in the fbrous roots and
checking the growth, I believe that
this is the true cause of maldigomia and
blight. The question of remedy is the
getting of something in the soil that
will kill these insects and that will kill
the foot rot. I have come to the con-
clusiOn that these may be reached in
that way. Mr.. Hamlin knows the

ing that the treatment Of the grove pro-
duced the disease. Foot rot does not

There was no evidence of foot rot there

to be cured?
HART: | should consider it cured
unless it failed to show any marks for
three years.
TABER: Is it common for treo not
to show any signs for year?
HART: l think that is generally the
case, but think there are exceptions to
the rule. | found some trees, when
trying Jordan's rule, that did not show
it the first year that did show it the Sec
end.
TABER: I have two trees in my grove
that are affected. l had the earth re-
moved two years ago from one tree and
the other was not touched. Neither of
the trees showed any signs of it again
until this year. If the tree that had
the earth removed had done any differ
ent thnn the other [ should have
thought that it was the removing of the
earth that did it.
HART: 1t is seven years since [ was
troubled with the disease. [ lost sew
eral trees at that time. I took them
out five years ago and since then have
had only one tree that was diseased. 1t
seems to me that with over sixty trees,
and the five years testing of this plan
that I speak of, it is as an experience
that ought to have some weight and it
has with me.
SwINGLE: There is disease that
resembles the maldigoma that am
still unsettled about. 1t attacks the
tree farther up among the branches. I
have never seen the tree completely
girdled with this latter form of it. The
gum protruding at the collar is almost
uniform symp om of foot rot. After the
finishing of the growth, that portion of
the bark which was diseased is cut off
very plainly and the edge of it often
turns off from the trees.
HEALY: I have never seen case Ct
the foot rot until last Saturday; but once
saw some trees that were injured at
the collar but [ do not know that there
was gum there, but [ think there was
sap that had become hard but these
trees were injured and diseased by it.
Those trees were dug out and they
healed up and are now good.
WEBER: I would mention that there
is an apparently new disease here and
the first appearance is in the leaves.
They turn kind of white and then the
roots begin to turn black and you will
find a fungus on the bark. We are
studying this new disease now and
do not know what it will turn out to be.
l do not know whether the disease is
due to the worm or to the fungus or to
the cold weather losing the vitality OF
the tree. Whatever it may be it has
proved to be quite destructive. We
have several accidental cases that have
been brought to our attention, and we
expect to find out more about it.
HEALY: [ had an experiment in my
