Seedlings from Grated Trees.

Seedlings from the fruits of grated
trees do not produce the grated variety.
Usually they revert to other fruit which
is inferior to that of the tree from which
the seed was taken. but occasionally a
specimen may develop which will pro-
iuee even better fruit than its parent
Grating simply perpetuates the variety
Of the tree from which the graft is
taken. There is hardly any more IN
terss:ing and fascinating subject than
that of raising seedlings, but the
chances of raising anything better than
ALREADY exists are infinitesimalIy small

ARSENATE OF LEAD,
New Insecticide Used with Great Sue
cess in Massachusetts,.

New lnsecttcide Used with Great Sue
cess in Massachusetts,.
This new :nsecticide has been quite
generally used by the Massachusetts,
gypsy moth commission for the eX.
termination of the gypsy moth, but ex-
periments on various trees. shrubs and
plants as well as insects have been made
incidentally in connection with the
work of the gypsy moth commission.
At the recent meeting of the Massachu-
sets fruit growers association. Mr..
Meyer. CT the gypsy moth commission,
expressed the opinion that arsenate OF
lead will soon take the place of paris
green, as the lead mixture does not burn
foliage. Mr.. Meyer reported having
sprayed nearly every shrub native to
Massachusetts and with no injurious re-
sults. No evil effects have been observed
by thoroughly spraying the peach
whose foliage is so tender paris green
often has e serious burning effect. In all
cases the arsenate of lead mixture has
proven destructive to insect life. Being
mixed with glucose, it adneres to foliage
so that one spraying is usually sufficient
for season. If buds are sprayed before
the fruit forms, fruit will be uninjured
To prepare the mixture. Put II ounces
acetate OF lead and ounces arsenate
Of soda il a Eogshead containing 15G
gallons of water. These substances
quickly dissolve and form arsenate OF
lead, a fine white powder which remains
in suspension in the water. BY adding
glucose or molasses. quarts 10 each $50
gallons OF water, the insecticide adheres
throughout the season to the foliage
even through quite heavy rains. Ar
senate of soda sells at wholesale at s
cents per pound and acetate of lead a.
II cents in 25 pound quantities. These
two chemicals are strong poison, as Is

How the Attractiveness of villages Can
Be Enhanced Greatly.
in a city the individual usually has
no voice, except indirectly through his
ballot, in the identifying of the streets
or parks; but in village it is far other
wise. There he may do much by his own
Individual efforts; he may exert great
influence by friendly discussion, plan
ming and doing in association with his
immediate neighbors, or he may have a
much greater influence by working
through village improvement society.
The main point is to have the enthusi
asm and the staying qualities that will
result in continued rather than spas
modic efforts.
One of the first things to be considered
in attempting to make village more at
tractive is the Improvement in the looks
of the streets. There are at least four
elements that enter into the makeup
of a handsome street.-the trees, the

From the Fdr7neys' Voice, Chicago, H.
Edison A Wood, who now lives at go
Washington Boulevard, Chicago, H., was
born on farm in Wyoming County, N. Y,
50 years ago. As young man he suffered
two sun strokes in the fields. When the war
broke out, he joined the 57th Illinois Volun-
teers, with which he served two years when
sickness forced his discharge. The effects
OF the sun strokes and his army life under
mined his health and he soon found his
brain, heart and kidneys were affected For
Street Car Company, but was forced to seek
lighter work. as the exposure increased his
bronchial and asthmatic troubles. He then
engaged with the Pan Handle Railroad
different capacities. His constitution gradu-
ally but surely breaking down, strange
dizzy spells becoming more frequent, he
finally sought relief in DR.. Williams Pink
Pills. He said to q reporter:
sit was some time about year ago when
I was very poorly, that my head was giving
me great deal of trouble, dizzy spells,
aches and queer feelings. and then also
use Of my lower limbs when walking.
"Physicians examined my condition close
" and were of the opinion that had all the
first symptoms Of locomotor ataxia. and
believe they were right, also last summer
had q very hard time with an attack of ton
silitis and neuralgia from which / did not
recover for some time. 1t was then that
commenced to take these Pink Pills, and
had only taken few boxes when discov-
cred remarkable change for the better in
every way. The pills seemed to relieve me
of aches and pains, the symptoms of locomo-
tor ataxia have left me entirely, and they
have made me strong and feel like myself.
~ am going to continue with the use of
the pills for the reason that having relieved
me of the ailments thought had come to
stay, having been caused thirty years ago
from hardships in the army, am practical

1have the remedy at hand to keep them rid.

what experience I have had with Dr.
