a high degree of proficiency and in
Tobanis "An American Battle Scene
the capabilities Of this able body or
men were we'll demonstrated. The
string orchestral work showed caretul
training, especially in it's pizzcati work
in the CORR composition.
The male quartet in its selections "A
Wedding in Hardanger" and the
Steamboat Song were generously re-
ceived, and as encores sang several pat
riotic selections. The first tenor, Mr..
Osterberg, possesses a voice of sweet

may be pardoned if / give in detail It's
most important features.
1t Is very desirable to begin early, SO
that the entire elms of the city can be
treated before the insects get to work.
First, the rough bark and all that is
loose should be removed and burned, as
many insects, destructive to shade and
ornamental trees, are housed under
this bark in various forms. From one
elm on Main street we took from under
the bark over pint of full-groWn bee
ties last spring, The belief that INSECT
enemies are destroyed by this scraping
is wrong, as far as it applies to leaf
eating insects Great care should be
taken that only the outside bark Is
taken off. A solution of whale oil soap
and kerosene was then applied to that
portion of the tree that had been
scraped. AS this destroys but portion
of the elm-leaf beetle, their habits be-
ing such that they hibernate in any
convenient place, it Is of great impor-
lance that their food should be poisoned
before they begin their work. This can
best be done by spraying the foliage,
which should be done as soon as the
leaves are fully developed. This also
catches other leaf-eating insects, such
as the 'canker worm," which was new
err more numerous in this section than
during the past spring and early sum
mer, also the tussock moth, which was
quite destructive; all of these yielded
to the modern method of treatment,
and the Importance of early spraying
was thOrOlIpb1v tahliShp6
Some new machinery for spraying
has been put to use this season, yet as
the entire city should be sprayed with
in ten days, the spraying apparatus
should be increased. Less than half
the city was covered last spring. and
much of that not as early as it should
have been.-Norwioh Bulletin.
