Spray Fruit Trees.

Secretary Tonneson, of the State
Horticultural Board, has issued the
following on producing a profitable
apple and pear crop: The apple scab
and pear scab did considerable damage
to last years fruit crop in the western
part of the State, ON account of the
unusually cool and damp season,
which was favorable to its increase.
Much profit can be realized from bear
ing pear and apple orchards which
produce good fruit. The attendance
OF fruit buyers from many of the
Eastern markets at our recent conven-
tion and their numerous letters of So
licitation for fruit shipments, indicate
that our market is wide and open.
Fruit growers, are you ready to gain
what profit may be realized on good
fruitf If so, at a cost of about 10
cents per tree, expended with the sui.
phate OF copper and lime, difference
in the value of the fruit from each
bearing tree of from 81 to So may be
realized.
Purchase sulphate of copper and
lime in sufficient quantities for the
size of the orchard. Dissolve three
pounds copper sulphate in two gallons
Of hot water, pour into barrel and
add enough cold water enough to cool
it. Now slack three pounds OF lime in
four gallons of water, stir we'll while

Spray Immediately with this, before
the blossoms are out, if possible to do

tials to the railroad and steamboat
agents in order that they may get the
benefit of passes or reduced fair for

Thomas s. Baldwin, the eronaut
and gymnast, connected with the bal.

ordered to Boston, where he will con-
duct series of interesting and inn
portant experiments in eronautics.
Vessels approaching Boston can be
heard through their fog horns Is miles
out at sea, but when within three
miles off shore the sound of the fog
horn whistle is absolutely lost. The
question is, where does the sound 60?
1t is proposed to investigate the
upper atmosphere at a distance of :, ;
600 feet in the hopes of ascertaining
whether the sounds from the whistles
and fog horns do not 60 upward, as
Mr.. Baldwin believes such sounds do
A monster balloon will be anchored to

lowed to ascend to any required dis.
tance by means Of a wire cable worked
by steam. The vessel will cruise about
off Boston and neighboring points to 9

will be made from whistles and horns
When within three or four miles o
shore it is believed that the aronaui
in the balloon can ascertain whether
the sound in getting lost ascends.
In the coil OF wire that is attached
to the balloon is telephone wire, by
means of which Baldwin will commu

Major Livermore, of the government
service, with his staff, will assist tn,

are concluded, Baldwin will turn hi
attention to experiments in War bal

TAKING CARE OF THE TIMBER
European Nations Paying Strict At.
re tention to Forestry.

European Nations Paying Strict At.
re tention to Forestry.
Nearly all the nations of Europe
are engaged at the present time in so
controlling the forest supply that
every bit of public and private prop.
city in trees is placed under restric-
tions against destructive cutting. The
forests are all highly protected, says
the Boston Herald, and even where
no State control exists the freedom in
cutting trees which exists in this
country is unknown. In Germany
during the last twenty-five years some
300, 900 acres have been reforested, and
the government has granted $500, 900
in this way to private owners OF
wsste land. In Austria, since 1852,
forest law which exercises a strict
supervision over the forests, both pub
lie and private, has been in existence
and no one is allowed to devastate q
forest to the detriment of adjoining
holders of land, and every cleared OF
cut forest must be replanted within
five years. In Italy the effort is con-
stant to increase the amount OF wood.
ed land. and the government con-
tributes three-fifths OF the cost of re.
forestation, upon condition that the
work is done according to its plan and
instructions. In Switzerland the
national government contributes from
80 to topper cent. of the establishment
of new forests, and from 20 to 80 pei
cent. for the planting OF protected
forests, and the law is very strict in
regard to cutting. France is also
deeply interested in public forest
property. The forests belong largely
to communities and public institu.
tions, as we'll as to the State, and
they are controlled in manner
similar to the regulation OF forests in
Germany. Here, as we'll as there, nc
clearing is allowed except blythe con
sent of the forest administration.
In all these countries the strictest
attention is paid to the subject ol
forestry, and schools are everywhere
maintained for the purpose of in
structing men in this work. Russis
has been the only nation where for
ests have been until lately under nc
restriction, but since 1888 even this
country has had its forest law, and
offers loans on favorable terms for the
protection and increase of the forests
Hardly any European nationality is
without its State control OF the forests
or without the training schools in
which men are instructed how to take
care of them. They are trying in

Europe in every way possible to save
the forests, and in the United States
efforts are ow being made in nearly
every commonwealth to regulate and
control the wooded lands, but our
people are not yet ready to accept the
stringent measures which have been
employed in Europe, as a necessity,
for their preservation.

A NATIONAL MATTER.
GOOD WORDS FOR A BIMETALIC
CURRENCY.

Hill, Allison, Voorhees, and Bland
Express Their Hearty Sympal hies
With the Movement I'm England
and in Other Countries.
A Washington dispatch OF the 5th
says: Senators and representatives
who assisted in the repeal of the Sher-
man act express themselves in hearty
sympathy with the bimotnllio n,uro-
ment in England.
Senator Hill said: "I joined in the
dispatch to the bimetallists in England
because l desired to encourage them
in an earnest effort to promote the
cause OF double standard. The best
thinkers and best writers, the best
statesman and the best financiers, are
gradually but surely realizing the fact
that single standard of gold means
the impoverishment of the people
everywhere, and some adequate relief
from the present conditions is essential.
There are some indications that Eng
lish sentiment is now drifting toward
bimetallism. 1t is the duty of this
government to pursue course which
will hasten the day when bimetallism
will be an accomplished fact. If the
present administra ton does not shape
its ruling in that direction, the people
will select one that will. Bimetallism
by international agreement, or in
dependently if necessary, is to be the
great issue of the future"
Senator Allison said: "The con-
ference in London is significant as
respects the membership and the
strong utterances favoring the full use
of silver as money. 1 have faith the
growing sentiment in favor OF the full
use of silver will find expression at the
election in England, Scotland and
Ireland when dissolution takes place."
Senator Voorhees, said: at indi.
Gates the nations will not long consent
to the continued disuse OF silver, and
points to the restoration of free coin
age. l expect the issue will be met,
especially in this country, at very
early date and in a determined man
ner. / look for such a general, strong
and popular movement on the subject
that when it comes it will defy the
opposition of the money centers and
the power of money. ] hope to live to
take part in this movement"
Voorhees, thought the movement
would not take place during the pres
ent session OF congress.
Representative Bland authorized the
following statement: al never con-
sidered the international agreement of
sufficient importance to delay action
by our government. I think we are
able to maintain our System of bi.
metallism. Efforts toward an inter
national agreement in the past have
been used as pretext for delay. I
have no doubt. however, the present
movement in the European countries
is in good faith, and may lead to re.
suits, but that is too remote to war.
rant delay on our part for ourselves"

l.. G. Dillman, who visited the Sount
a few days ago, to obtain cooperation
for the scheme of reclaiming the arit
waste of Eastern Washington, has re
turned to Spokane, and tells th'
Chronicle that assurances of hearty
cooperation were received from tn.
business men of Seattle and Tacoma
A communication was sent to Cover
nor McGraw to-day asking him to ex
anime and pass upon the plan. Prom
inent Spokane capitalists are already
interested in it and the indications a,
present seem decidedly encouraging.
The plan, in brief, is to irrigate
three big bodies of land in Central
Washington, aggregating about 10000
acres. The largest tract, $4,000 acres
lies in northern Columbia county
along the Snake river, near Riparia
The second tract is in western Walla
Walla county along the Columbia be.
tween Ainsworth and Wallula and
contains 5000 acres. The third
tract of 10000 acres is in Yakima
county along the Columbia near
Priest Rapids. Arrangements are al.
ready made for the purchase of these
tracts.
1t is proposed to have the principal
commercial bodies OF the State share
in the enterprise. Two thousend set
tiers are wanted who will take ten
acres OF land apiece at $40 per acre
and agree to pay one-fourth Of the
price, in cash or goods, within seven
months. The boards of trade of Spo.
kane, Seattle and Tacoma are asked to
furnish 500 families apiece. The
smaller towns, all told, are to furnish
500 families more. In return for pro.
viding these settlers the three boards
are to receive 33 per cent. of the stock
of the company.
1t is estimated that the digging ol
each ditch will give work for several
months to 600 or 700 men. These
men are to be provided by the com.
pany with food, clothing and other es.
sentials. When the ditch is complet.
ed they are to be given the option oil
taking what is due them in land OF
taking six months time checks Sc
cured by the interest-bearing bonds ol
the company. After all these claims
are settled it is estimated that the pro.
moters will still have 10000 acres oI
land worth from $40 to $55 an acre.
"Our plan will give work to hun.
dreds of unemployed men," said Mr.
Dillman, "and will provide homes for
thousands of settlers in what are now
desert regions. The soil is OF the
same character as that in the Yakima
country. 1t is easily irrigated, and
when properly watered will raise al
most any kind of fruit or produce
Ten acres OF it will be all family will
need"

KNIGHTS OF PYTHIAS.
PREPARATIONS FOR THE GRAND
LODGE MEETING NEXT MONTH

And for the Supreme Grand Lodg,
Meeting at Warrington Th,
knights Will Take an Exhibition
Car East-They Will 60 by Special
Train-Will be Received by TN.
President.
The Knights OF Pythias are busy
these days making preparations to at
tend the meeting of the grand lodge
at Olympia in the early part of June
and the State encampment of the Uni
form Rank, which occurs at the same
time. The various divisions of the
Uniform Rank of the State will meet
in competitive drill for $500 cash
prize.
Tacoma division No. 4 and Sunset
division No. 90 are drilling nightly
with the intention oi competing fol
the prize.
The preparations that are being
made to attend the meeting of the
supreme lodge at Washington, d. c..
are more extensive and on a more
elaborate scale than anything that ha.
ever been attempted by the knights
of Pythias before.
1t is proposed to take an exhibit car
East with the special train that is to
carry the knights East, in which the
products of every part of the State
will be displayed without partiality to
any section.
A committee of five knights from
Tacoma, Seattle and Spokane has
been appointed to meet at Tacoma
June 5 to make the necessary arrange.
ments with the railroad companies.
Shortly after that meeting it is ex-
pected the exhibit car will start for
Spokane. 1t will then 60 to Walla
Walla, Olympia, Tacoma and Seattle.
At each place the products Of that sec.
ton will be placed in the car on dis.
play.
A special train of nine cars will lake
the Knights to Washington and at
each city the exhibit car will be
thrown open for inspection. An at
tentant will be in charge of the car,
provided with an abundant supply OF
Washington literature and advertising
matter for free distribution.
When the train reaches the capital,
the exhibit car will be detached and
sent on to New York, to be shown in
all the large Eastern cities during the
stay of the Knights at Washington, at
the conclusion of which it will return
to the capital, and be brought back on
the return trip.
The meeting OF the supreme lodge
and the grand encampment of the
Uniform Rank at the same time will
be on scale of magnifcence hitherto
unknown in the history of the order.
A fact that is OF great importance,
and that is not generally understood
by the public. is that the Uniform
Rank, K. of p, is a part of or an
auxiliary to the standing army OF the
United States, and, if need be, could
be called out by the President to quell
. disturbance the came as the regular
army. The president has rendered the
use of the capitol grounds for the en-
campment and it is expected that
fully $4,000 of this auxiliary army will
camp within the shadow of its dome.
Something that has not occurred
since Abraham Lincoln reviewed the
United States army, at the close of the
rebellion, will transpire during this
coming encampment. This army oil
uniformed knights will march in re-
view before the President and his
cabinet. The local knights are look
ing forward to the event with much
enthusiasm.

MORE authentic reports OF the in
terstate college contest, proposed by
the Pullman people, show that it was
contemplated that in Oregon the
colleges at Eugene, Salem, Corvallis
and Forest Grove should cooperate.
President Bryan, OF the State Agricult-
ural College, is interested in the pro-
ject. The Moscow, Seattle, Walla
Walla and Pullman colleges are in
cluded in the present scheme, which
is for representative meeting, to form
an association, which should ther
proceed to arrange a contest.
