SATURDAY, JULY 7, 1894.

The Fort Worth Gazette chal-
lenges the assertion Of the LIGHT
that San Antonio has made more
increase in all material ways since
1890 than Fort Worth, and asks for
the figures. The LIGHTS state
ment was made in rebuttal Of the
claim OF the Gazette. Now let the
Gazette show her increase in fig
ures taken from official sources and
the LIGHT will put the lines down
in the deadly parallel every time.
SaR\ Antonio has built more houses
in that time than Fort Worth, has
increased more in the taxable
values of the city, has added more
names to her tax payers lists, has
increased in population, scholastic
and other, beyond the increase OF
Fort Worth, has built more lines
of electric railway and has done
more in every direction that shows
prosperity and growth. The LIGHT
comedies that Fort Worth can
show during the past two years
large increase in failures over this
city, but at that it draws the line,

woods. and efforts made in its culture
have not been satisfactory. Chinese
Ginseng is closely allied to our native
species; seeds have occasionally been
received from China and Japan. but so
far as ascertaincd they have not vege-
tated. 1t is possible that they soon
lose their terminating power, as it is
stated that the Japanese deposit the
seed in the ground as soon as they are
collected, in order to keep them fresh
until wanted to SOW. The Japanese
cultivate the plant to some extent. and
their method is to select a sheltered
position and make bed of leaf-mold
in which the seeds are sown, and where
the plants remain until wanted for
use. The beds are protected from the
sun by roof of straw laid on poles
and posts. After growing four years
the roots are lifted, carefully washed,
sca1ded in boiling water, then dried in
high temperature until they become
brittle. The best article sells for about
S. a pound in Japan. 1t is plant that
does not submit readily to cultivation,
and its profitable production would be
very doubtful"

a. the result Of his lsbors, a pamphlet
from which the following facts and
conclusions may be gathered:
|. hosette covers all varieties of
peaches. None appear exempt It is
NOS connned to peaches alone, but
occurs In plums, also-notably those of
Chickasaw and Japan strains.
2: Like Fellows, it occasionally at
lacks one or two branches at first, but
generally the whole tree is diseased
from the start. Six months usually
suffice to destroy tree, and never does
IL last Tor two seasons. 1t never lin
gers on from year to year like Yellows
8. The disease commonly appears in
the unfolding shoot-axes in early spring
when the buds first open. These shoots
push out only one to three inches, and
lose. almost completely, the ability to
develop and ripen wood. The short.
aoortive shoots, thus formed, put out
diminutive. soft branches, which them
selves branch again, SO that it is not
unusual to ind Is to 80 branches on
short axis, less than three inches long.
The leaves on these dwarfed, branch
ing shoots are multiplied correspond
lngIy and the result is compact tufts or
rosettes containing sometimes as many
rs 400 diminutive leaves. Thus the dis
ease gets its name. The older and
larger leaves near the base of the shoot
frequently reach length Of several
inches and are characterized by a very
pronounced inrolling of the margins Of
the leaf, and by a certain stiffness due
TO peculiar Strengthening Of the mid
rib. These leaves turn yellow in early
summer and fall very readily. Earring
causes them to fall by the hundred as
in autumn. Very often they are
blotched, Drowned and dead in places,
especially at the ends and margins,
from the attacks of various leaf fungi.
The younger and central leaves of the
rosette remain small and green and
free from fungi They are usually some
what folded but seldom rolled. The
punching of the leaves is conspicuous
and makes the trees noticeable at
long distance.
=. Attacked trees generally drop their
fruit early and while it is still green
or yellowish green.
5. There is, however no premature
1ipening of fruit as in case of Fellows.
+. AS stated, the disease is virulent
and contagious, though DR.. Smith has
never succeeded in identifying the germ
producing it, 1t is settled, however,
that Rosette cannot spread except BY
direct eontact-but this is OF frequent
occurrence from the pruning knife
which oftentimes serves as a very rapid
incubator. This is the reason WHY a
tree may remain perfectly healthy
alongside Of one affected, while the dis
ease is manifested, perhaps, one or two
trees further on In the row. Even
hooking birds are presumed to inocu-
late healthy trees by the puncture of
their claws in the tender top sprays,
after they have previously punctured
diseased tree by alighting on it SINH
larly.
z. The disease is much to be dreaded,
especially as there appears to be no
remedy except the prompt and con-
certed destruction of all affected trees.
Root them out bodily. That is the
only way yet ascertained to keep the
disease in check, when it once puts in
an appearance.

A gentleman from Macon, Ca. writes En-
closed please find twig from peach tree.
What is the disease Is it curled leaf or
Rosette; 7" How does It spread Have never
seen two trees side by side with it.
ANSWER by Hugh n. Starnes, Horticultural: !
Specimen sent was so dry and shriv-
elled that it was difficult, even after
the twig was thoroughly soaked, to
predicate anything from it's appear
ance. The affection, however, seems
to be Rosette, not Curled Leaf-a very
much more serious malady; so serious,
in fact, that it yields precedence only
to the dreaded Fellows in importance.
To southern growers it is even of more
moment than the Ye-lowS, by reason OF
its greater prevalence. 1t is also more
virulent and rapid in it's action than
the Yellows-a single season sufficing
to destroy previously unaffected tree.
/ say unaffected instead of uninfected
because the disease is not infectious
but contagious.

careful study and investigation of both
Fellows and Rosette and has published

Lucerne, or Alfalfa.

G. M. D.. Hamilton, Ga.-Please give me
some information about Alfalfa When and
how to plant it, and all about it,
Answer by Director Redding: Luz
cerne, or Alfalfa-as it has been called
of late years, (Medicago Sativa) has
bas been grown in the Southern States.
In small way, for more than sixty
years, or long before we had any COM
munication with California, whence
the name of Alfalfa came. 1t is a
! forage plant belonging to the same
order with red clover to which it is
somewhat similar in appearance and
! uses. 1t is superior, however, to clover
IN productivcness, nutritiousness and
ease OF cultivation. Lucerne requires
very deep, mellow, well drained and
very rich soil. A sandy loan is best if
rich enough. 1t is not worth while to
attempt to grow 1t except on a rich,
well prepared and clean soil. A very
good preparation for lucerne is a crop
OF COW peas sown in June or early in
July; but it may follow a rich plot
that is now in cotton. October is prob
ably the best month in which to sow
the seeds, but l have succeeded very
we'll with sowing as late as the middle
OF November. and it may be sown with
success in February or March, on very
clean land. Plow and cross pillow deep
~ and harrowwell. Sow as you would
turnlps. In rows 20 to "a inches apart.
about to 10 pounds of seeds being re-
quired for one acre. 1t is advisable to
apply three or four hundred pounds of
fertilizers per acre when preparing the
land, even if it is already very rich.
This should consist of acid phosphate
and kainit equal parts, and little well
rotted stable manure Containing no
weed eeeds), or, instead of the stable
manure about rs pounds of nitrate of
soda. good way to prepare is first to
plow and harrow we'll; then Law off
rows the desired width Il prefer not
less than two feet, distribute the fer
tllizer in these rows and bed on them.
Then smooth off the beds and sow the
lucerne seed just as you would ruta-
baga, or other turnips, using plenty of
seed. The young plants are delicate
and grow slowly at first, but even when
sown In October very fair cutting will
be afforded in March, and one or two
more during the early summer. When
fully established, or two years old, q
lucerne patch will afford from four to
SIX cuttings during the season, the first
often as early as March /.
The planting will last many years.
requiring only to be kept free from
weeds, and an annual manuring of
phosphate and potash. ana it will prob
ably afford more rich food per acre
than any other crop whatever. The
lucerne should be cut before it blooms,
using an ordinary moving blade. 1t is
best to cut the day before feeding, per-
uniting it to wilt. Seed cost Is to 20
cents per pound, and are sold by all
! seed dealers. Every farmer who keeps
a horse. COW, pigs and chickens, should
have an acre or so of lucerne There
is no doubt of its value.

Chicken Cholera and its Prevention.

Why submit to heavy losses from this
| disease? Up to April, 1894, this dis
ease had not been on the Experiment
Farm to our knowledge. Early in that
month hen became sick and dumpish
with dark comb; all food and water
refused. 1t was thought useless to treat
this case, but Epson salts were admin
istered and this was followed with
copious watering placed in the mouth
with spoon. The hen was put in a
warm, sunny place, isolated from usual
runs, and recovered very slowly.
Another hen died in few days and
then another and cockerel, and several
persons who had had experience with
cholera pronounced this disease to be
cholera. The hen and cockerel died
near night, and next morning two
other hens were dead and eight more
were in different stages of the disease.
Treatment was begun at once. Two
hens were killed and buried as those
previously dead had been. The six
were brought out into the sunlight and
given salts and water.
The house and yard were thoroughly
disinfected with l pint of strong sui
phuric acid to gallons of water, as
suggested in poultry books. The hens
themselves were sprayed with this.
Their drinking water was charged with
carbolic acid Il teaspoonful to half gal
Ion water and asafetida was put in
their food at the rate of heaping table
spoon to the food of 30 chickens.
The next morning six hens could not
get off the roost, though all but two
had gone up as usual the night previ-
GUS, after their treatment These were
treated as before and put outside the
yard. Before night all but four hens
were walking about pecking grass.
After three days of isolation these fouH
were returned to the yard cured, and
all have been in good health since. Six
hens and cockerel were lost before
the health of the flock was restored by
the treatment as given above.
Had we known the disease at first,
it is doubtful if single bird need to
have been lost. Promptness to disin-
feet and treat the sick birds will save
many losses. The doses of salts, not
before recommended to my knowledge,
doubtless helped rid the birds of the
cholera bacilli sooner than if it had
not been given, and SO hasteued the
eradication of the disease. The asafp-
tida acts as diffusible stimulant to
help keep the birds warm.
The drinking water was for some
days kept charged with carbolic acid,
and all that is now needed to secure
immunity from another attack is a
second thorough disinfection and to
continue for some time the addition OF
carbolic acid to the drinking water.

New Britain Fire Commissioners Know | Where to Get Good Stock.

]. W. wynni, Peter Long and A. w. Hadlay, fire commissioners of New Brit ain, were entertained yesterday by Chairman William II. Mcdonald and Commissioner Edward Hines of the local fire board.
 The New Britain commissioners came 10 this city for the purpose of buying Il pair of horses and incidentally noting any points of New lInven's fire depart ment which might be useful for them.
 The visitors were shown the electrical workings in the chiefs office and the apparatus in No. 2's house. The celcr- fly and method with which they re- spondcd io m alarm was shown and was complimrnicd by the visitors.
 A dinner was served at Heublein's cafe, at which Mr, Wyant took occasion to thank the local members for their hospitality,
 After inc dinner the visitors were shown through the police building by Sergeant Mcliride and Signal officer Began. Just as they had completed their tour of inspection call came in from one of the police boxes and the manner of responding to a police call was shown.
 The party left for home at o'clock last evening.
