Strawberry Culture.

is more correctly designated as leaf
spot; it consists of small brown spots
with white centers, which gradually
increase in numbers until they nearly
run together and so kill the leaf.
These spots are caused by destruc-
tive spore or vegetable fungus which
it's tissue, spreading it's roots out in
every direction. 1t is not constitu-
tional or sap disease; it is not prop
agated within the plant itself but
from without. These spores or dis
ease germs are borne through the air
by various instrumentalities and a
plant containing them on it's leaves
becomes center of infection to all it's
neighbors. Various sprays are recon-
mended for the cure of this disease,
but we have always believed general
treatment of the plant more effective
than local trea tment and have never
applied them.
Leaf spot generally strikes plants
which have been making a rapid
growth and are accordingly soft and
succulent, and then from any cause
receive check. Thus long, cold
rain or the sudden application OF
mulching, thus cutting off the SUM-
shine from the ground when they are
growing, are frequent causes of
rust" When these causes are remOv-
ed good strong plants will generally
grow out of it, in few weeks. They
need to be stimulated with fertilizer
and cultivtion, if not too late in the
season for the latter. If most of the
diseased leaves are picked off and
burned, it will assist the plants i'll
throwing off the parasites. Strong,
well-nourished plants seldom succumb
to the disease; it is an accompaniment
of weakness. 1t is important to be
certain that the leaves are free from
the parasites when the plants are set;
then by maintaining a steady, pro-
gressive growth, never too rank, never
falling back, the grower can carry his
crop along without fear of injury
from this source.
Dieback or White Bud-This is pro-
duced by conditions similar to those
which cause leaf spot, but more par
ticularly by overlooking and a conse-
quent lush growth in the hot weather,
followed by a letting-down when cool
er weather supervenes. Dieback Is
simply starvation, pining away for
lack of one or more elements of fer
tility-in most cases, potash.
It is important to the grower to be
able to detect the earliest symptoms
of this disease, in order that he may
be ready to meet it with the correct
treatment. The first indication of it's
presence is the appearance in the cen
ire of the crown of the young leaves,
just unfolding, slightly touched with
reddish yellow or purplish yellow
tinge, unnaturally crinkled and small
err than normal. If not arrested the
disease soon takes entire possession OF
the plant and all it's leaves, old and
young, are greatly shrunken, being
scarcely larger than ones fnger-nai1,

The third game between the Senators
and the Pirates yesterday resulted in q
victory for the visitors by the score of 10
to 8. The defeat Of the home team was
due to the errors Of De Montreviile and
OBrien at critical stages Of the game, ILL

and OBrien. and the weakness Of German,
who pitched for the home team, in the
sixth and eighth innings.
Nevertheless, the game was exciting

liminary practice struck him back Of the
head, and he went out. Each side scored
one in the first. the visitors run being due
to two hits and De Montreville's error. In
the Washingtons' half Selbach walked. go
ing to third on De Montreville's single and

Neither side scored until the sixth, when

In their half the Senators got one run on
De Montreviie's hit, Davis wild throw to
