Judge Dcnnys Bill.

Editor DcEeezaf:
Whether Judge nenny's Bill on the
cigarette question become law or not,
each chartered city would have to make
its own legislation On the Subject, II can
do that nnylow, II Il feels rightly on the
subject.
In New York City, the Sup;- Of Public
Instruction has his heart IN the right
plan towards the youth within his reach.
In all the nineiy-ive grammar schools Of
the city the Anti-CIgzre:tc League has
been lately organized snd already the
membership has mounted TO 5000.
In this city several cigarette fsnds,
who already realize TOO sadly the fell
work Of the cigarette, were anxious TO
sign the petition 60 the legislature. They
know nothing probably about the sciel-
| tifie working oi the drug, but they DO
know tha; !; has made them feel bsdlY,
and TO grow into strong manhood they
must quit
DIR. +. NJ. I.ancion, Of Omaha, says
Cigarettes contain ss the principal poi
sons, nicotine, arsenic, and opium all
Of which are ciasSed among the poisons,
which are nerve depressauts, and any
thing which inhibits or hinders proper
action OF the nerve centerS, must inter
fere with the normal action OF every
| function OF the body. We therefore find
poor circulation imperfect digestion, and
the inevitable result upon the brain, poor
memory, and3ack oi power OF cOnoeatra-
| ton"
He continues The boys are TO great
extent ignorant OF these terrible results
until too late They think the cigarette
smoking manly. Why should We allow
. few men 10 manufacture and sell this
useless and poisonous thing simply for
the maney TO be made. when we do not
hesitate to se;re valuable stock from our
herds sf cattle for the bare possibility OF
i danger from discases
By all means let Us throw every pro
lection around our boys who are to be
our future statesmen and uplolders oi
our republic. They need strong bodies,
lstrongs hearts and clean brains"

THE TINE TO SpgAY.-This is the sea-
son of the year for spraying trees. What
is best to do it with. Sam Clark, CT
Salem, says: DIR. j. Reynolds, OF Salem.
who is the most advanced horticulturist
In this vicinity, and grows the best OF
fruit of all sorts without env help from
the state OF Oregon, succeeds in making
lime. sulphur and salt destroy the moss
on his apple trees, the fungi on all his
fruit trees, also the various insects that
have annoyed him in the past, are de-
slroyed by the use OF this simple remea7z
The Ingredients OF this spray are: Tn
slackcd lime, 80 pounds; powdered sui
phur 20 pounds. and ordinary stock salt
is pounds; to be used with so gallons of
water. The way they prepare it is TO
place 10 pounds of lime and.20 pounds of
powdered sulphur in an iron kettle, with
20 gallons of water, and boil in q lively
way for at least two hours, or until the
sulphur Is dissolved. Then put the other
20 pounds OF lime in barrel, or large
tub that will hold all, and water enough
to slack all the lime, then, when dis
solved, add the salt, and water enough
to make the 60 gallons. The prescription
maker says il must be applied luke warm,
but that is not so easily done. If Won
have a sled TO haul IL about the orchard
on, and work rather lively, you may be
able to get it ON before it gets really cold,
but in q wintry sort of day, such as we
have when the trees are dormant, the
solution won't reach the tree in a very
warm state after being reduced to SPRAY
and passing through the chill air. II
might be possible to make this more
deadly by adding bluestone TO it, but
those who know say lime, sulphur and
salt answer all necessary purpose. I
