DIFFERENT KINDS OF ROOT
KNOT.

Prof. Newton B. Pierce of the Ma
tional Department of Agriculture,
Division OF Vegetable Pathology, sta
toned at Santa Ana, furnishes the fol-
lowing brief summary of the different
varieties of root knot or root gals, affect
ing trees and vines in Southern Cali
fornia:
/. Gall on the smaller roots OF walnut,
fig, peach and other trees and plants.
They are induced through the work OF
several species OF Nematode worms.
The worms may be introduced in new
regions by infested nursery stock and
otherwise. Most injury is done to
plants in moist and sandy soils. Nur-
sery stock and beets suffer to some ex-
tent in California.
2. Calls on the fibres of grape vines
especially upon the finer roots. They
are introduced through the work OF
Phylloxera vastatrix, very destructive
insect easily introduced in new regions
by means of infested plants. All
European varieties of vines are killed by
it. Vines are killed most rapidly on
heavy soils.
3. Tubercles on the roots OF pea vines
and closely related plants. They are
induced through the action of micro
organisms, and are considered beneficial
to the farmer.
4. Tubercles on the roots of cabbages
and closely related plants. A diseased
condition induced by Slime Mold
(Plasmodiophora brassicae) and called
club root, finger and-toes, etc. The
fungus may be carried into new regions
by means Of infested plants. 1t is not
yet known in the gardens of California.
5. Knots on the roots and branches OF
apple and other fruit trees. They are
induced through the action of the Woody
Aphis (Schizoneura lanigera). The in
sect causes great injury to the trees it
infests and is easily carried on infested
plants into new regions.
6. Knots of cherry and plum branches
This trouble is known in the east as
Black Knot and is induced through the
action of parasitic fungus (Sphareia
morbosa) infesting the branches. These
knots have never been seen in California
so far as known, but the fungus is liable
to be introduced ON infested plants.
7. Knors on olive branches. This dis.
ease is known as olive tuberculosis and
is caused by a bacillus. 1t is not yet
certainly known in California. 1t is
common in Southern Europe and else
where and may be introduced on in
tested plants.
s. Knots and canker-like injuries Of
roots, trunks and branches of deciduous
trees and vines. This group includes a
variety OF affections variously known as
root-knot, black-knot, crown gall, etc
These affections are common to the
peach, walnut, grape and numerous
other plants. 1t is not yet demonstrated
what the cause or causes may be. Ii
has not been shown in satisfactory
manner that these diseases are con.
tagious.
8. There are many gals, knots
tubercles and swellings of various parts
OF great variety of plants not included
in the above list. They are induced by
many different parasitic plants and
animals. Swellings caused by the mis-.
tetoe, oak gals, etc., are examples.

The Passing of Parties.

No party remains virtuous more than
twenty years. That also is in the nature
of things. Supremacy is demoralizing.
The Democrats now take the govern
ment by order of the popular vote, and
they will keep it so long as they are true
to their trust-no longer. When they
become derelict some other party, no
matter by what name it may be called,
will issue an order of eviction. The
country is forever safe in the hands of
the people. 1t is never safe for any pro-
longed period in the hands of any party.

VERMIN ON FOWLS,

1t is about this time, during hot sea-
son, that poultry are badly troubled
with insect pests, chiefly fleas and lice.
Ii precautions are not taken, the pests
multiply rapidly. Wherever hens go
broody and are allowed to sit, fleas find
natural breeding quarters in the nests,
so that If the latter are not seen to at
once, in few days feas swarm about
the old nests. 1t is among sitting hens
where so per cent of the fleas are bred,
and although | took every precaution
this spring | was not able to keep the
nests free from them. There is little
trouble, however, with laying hens, if
ordinary care is taken, but where they
are setting it is very different thing.
Broody fowls seem conscious that insects
multiply round about them, for they
will, as rule,
SEEK THE DUST BATH
Before going to feed. If they fail to
dust themselves before their meal they
will Immediately afterward, so they
keep the pests in check until the
chickens are Matched. Then the nest
are soon swarming. Now that most of
the chickens are Matched, the best plan
is to get all the hens away from the
buildings or lighthouses. Good nests
are easily made in orchards or paddocks
by scooping a hole in the ground, put
ting in little hay and covering the
nest over with a suitable-sized box.
The nests in the house especially those
recently occupied by setting hens should
be burned and the boxes turned down
over the smoldering debris. Thus total
destruction is dealt out in the breeding
headquarters. Then if the roosting and
laying houses are occasionally lime
washed, or well dressed with strong car
bolic soapsuds, and the floor thickly
bestrewed with ashes, there will be no
trouble with feas.

Made bs- Thunderbolts,

In the museums of nearly all the large
colleges you will see what appear to be
sandy petrifactions much resembling
branches of trees. You may conclude
that these are the remains of forest
monsters that grew in faraway geolog-
ical age, but if you will take the trol-
BILE to ask your guide, or, better still,

handy, he will tell you queer story

to be sandy petrifactions are, in fact,

speaking, they are fulgurites." They

and latterly vitrifying all the sand with
which it comes in direct contact. On

conceivable shape and size, some so or
more feet in length and 4 inches in di-

pleted Shows Heavy Loss.
The DISPATCH has mournful piece
of news to chronicle Tor its readers to
day. Unpleasant news to all classes
in all parts of the territory, and partic
ularly so to the residents of Utah county
and Of Provo city. The Provo Wooden
mills closed down last evening for an
lndiinite period, throwing 80 people
out of employment and depriving four
or five hundred dependents as we'll as
the employees of means of support.
This action is the result of mature
deliberation upon the part OF the
board of directors and in pursuance of
a resolution passed by that body who
held a session yesterday. Stocktaklng
has been completed and the report from
the same showed a heavy loss for last
year, such loss as the company
feel unable to stand again.
All the board Of directors and each
and every stakeholder are enthusiastic
ally in favor of starting up the mills
again so soon as the market is such that
they feel they can operate without
loss. They are willing that the mills
should run purely for the sake Of CIV
ing the needed employment. While
they would appreciate a dividend,
whether or no one can be earned will
not be considered in starting up the
mill again. The question whether or
no expenses can be made only will be
considered.
