Petroleum for Apple scab,

The following is an interesting sketch
from the pen Of d. L. Bliss, on the
apple scab: Recently saw long ar
ticle in regard to apple scab and how to
get rid of it. Several years ago to kill
what was thought to be worthless

fall that scraggy apple tree which l ex-
pected to find dead was as bright as a
silver dollar, and the twigs had made
a growth of twelve inches to eighteen
inches, and a few as nice Tompkins
County King apples as ever hung on a
tree, greeted me, and to-day it is a
handsome bearing tree, twenty years
old. Since then l have used petroleum
on my apple trees to free them from
scab and noxious insects that collect
and breed on the trunks Of old trees.
apply it with an old whitewash brush
at any time before the buds begin to
swell in the spring applying 1t freely
on all large branches and body. Per-
haps it could be applied with sprayer
more effectually. 1t is very cheap, and
I would like to have apple growers try
1t and report"

"Rnttnr Money!

Old bills of the Orange County
Bank, known in bygone years as but"
ter money" are occasionally unearthed,
although nearly all that were issue
have long since been redeemed. JUS
tice A. B. Hulse of Monroe presented
one for $40 at bank Saturday, and
was somewhat surprised at receiving
it's face value in gold, says the
New York Tribune. One history
of this bill is rather singular one.
In July, 1858, forty-two years ago, Jona-
than Mapes, of Monroe, consigned a
COW, which was sold for $25, to Capt.
Harrison Tuthill, who, in connection
with the late c. B. Knight, father of
H. B. Knight, of Goshen, and Super
visor G. T. knight Of Monroe, ran a
freight line between Monroe and
New York. The freight charges and
commission amounted to 81, and the
balance of $23, consisting of the bill
above alluded to and SO bill on a
New York city bank, was given to Mr..
Mapes. He wrapped the money care
fully in the printed statement blank
furnished by Capt. Tuthill, placed 1t in
the bottom of and old chest, and the
roll remained there undisturbed until
few days ago, when 1t was dis
covered.

The Maine statutes provide that the

being one-twentieth of an acre in size
and having II rows, with the usual dis
lance of 3h feet between the rows.
These plats were cultivated with a

It appears from the results that II Is
possible to cultivate corn too much,
as well as too little. Cultivation once
a week gives the best yields, in each
series Of averages. Care has been TAX
en- during these experiments to .injure
the roots as little as possible, but 1t
would be idle to claim that the roots
were not injured at all, and it Is pos
sible that the falling off in yield as a
"esult Of frequent cultivation Is due to
injuries which the roots have sustained
in the process. In all cases OF these
experiments, the corn was dropped ID
inches apart, by measure, in the row,
two sound kernels being planted at
each place, and covered with q hoe,
and after the first cultivation it was
thinned to one plant in place. Pre-
vious experiments have pretty fully
settled the fact that the large varieties
of corn produce best on this soil (Which
is Of but moderate fertility when the
rows are 31s feet apart and the stalks
16 inches apart in the row.

The natural range of the red cedar
in Indiana is not entirely known, but
its distribution seems to be local ex-
cept in the southern parts of the state.
There are few regions, however, in
which 1t is not planted as an orna-
mental tree, and thus the chances of
infection are greatly increased. 1t is
not certain how far the spores may be
carried during the short period that
they retain their power Of termination,
but 1t is likely that they at times may
be carried over considerable dis

Glenwood, the grandest mansion in
all the Yadkin valley was alive
October 20 with the merry chimes of
marriage bells and the jollity of d
gay and happy crew of visitors who

flowing gown.
The groom was escorted to the altar
by the brides brother, Tyre Glenn,
ESQ.,, while the bride came in leaning
upon the arm of her sister, Mrs. Lille
Richmond. The ceremony was beauti-
full and impressive and the nuptial
vows were sealed with ring.
The decorations in the halls and
parlor consisted of autumn leaves and
chaysanthemums and were most
artistically and eXquisitely arranged.

highly cultivated musician. While
every feature was full of tone and

most paramount was the magnificent

hall was darkened and then lighted
with pretty candles and large lamps
decorated with lovely artificial shades.
Simple words Of mine can not do
justice to the various Courses OF good
things from turkey and cocoa to ice
cream and sher bert, al beautifully pre-
pared and elegantly served.
