Treatment for the san Jose Scale.
Though the 1897 experiments with III
secticides against the San Jose Scale are
not yet completed, the results so far OBJ
tanned indicate the desirability OF a change
in the treatment heretofore recommended.
Instead OF winter applications, summer
work will, it is believed, prove most salts
factory, aud kerosene, undiuted, most
effective.
The details Of the experiments must be
reserved until the work is completed, but
that the balance of the season may not be
lost to those who have scale. infested trees
or plants, the following recommendation
Is made:
Spray Thoroughly IN September, all
infested, bearing apple, pear,.plt11 and
peach trees, wih mdii,tted kerosene,
during The middle Of a clear, s,a,shiny
dag.
Treating nursery stock or very young
trees with undiluted kerosene is not now
recommended, since II is not yet certain
that serious injury may not be caused.
The scales will continue active through
out September, and kerosene has proved
uniformly fatal TO all stages In oil expert.
ments made thus far. No injury has
been caused on any treated trees except
on plum after a spraying made in early
spring, and this injury was temporary.
In addition to the plants above named,
Purple beech, Rosa rrtgosa and two
species OF Spiraea have been sprayed with
uudiluted kerosene without resulting in
jury.
BY 'undiluted kerosene" is meant the
ordinary burning fluid used in lamps, In
exactly the condition 10 which it is pur.
chased. 1t should be applied In the finest
spray, and every part of the plant should
be thoroughly wet, but no more. One
application should be sufficient, and II
may be delayed, il necessary, until the
fruit has been removed. The earlier the
application is now made, however, the
better 1t will be.

The semi centennial Of the L. o. 8. OF
A. was celebrated last week In Reading
Pa. From Monday morning until Satur.
day night the city was envcloped in enc
grand blaze OF patriotism. The decora-
tionswere elaborate. Every business house
was literally clothed in red, white and
blue, and old Glory was conspicuous in
every direction.
The greater part of the week was TAX
en- up by conventions and sessions OF the
State Camp ofPennsylvania, the National
Camp, the Commandcry General, the
Patriotic Order True Americans, and the
Patriotic Order Daughters OF America.
The principal event OF the Jubilee ee k
was the monster parade of 10, 500 Patrio
tic Sons on Thursday afternoon. The
music of scores Of bands, the booming 0
cannon from Neycrsink Mountain, tn,
ringing Of multitude OF Church bells
and the rendition Of the national hymns
to the formation OF the parade, served Il
arouse the patriotism OF the thousands q
the streets, aud when the procession NOV
ei at !. 80 +. NJ. 1t passed through solid
wall OF cheering humanity over the entir,
route OF miles.
The variety OF uniforms gave the palad
picturesque appearance, which ii woul,
not have otherwise possessed.
The floats representative OF great epoch
Ia tho history OF the republic, were bril-
liant la execution and were one of tn,
principal attractions OF the great pro
aston.
New Jersey was well represented in
The parade Camp O, OF Trenton, was
b 'aded by Winkler's band snd Camp 3, OF
Phillipsbn.g, and Camp %, of Palmyra,
were each accompanied with their Patrio
tic Guards.
The National Camps sessions on Fri
day and Saturday, were OF unusual In
tertsl to the members OF the Order. The
national secretary's report shows that tn,
the Order is in llourishing condition, dc
spite the recent hard times and fnancia
depression. New Jersey made the great
est proportional gain during the pas
year, aud the National Camp showed thei
appreciation of the fact by olecting j. G
Homer, OF Camp %, N. j., National Vic
President. The next session OF tn
National Camp will be held ia New HAY
