FAIRLY SUCCESSFUL.
Prof. C0rbett Visits Berkeley Orchards
to See Effects of Spraying.
Martinsburg World

Prof. l.. G. COrbett, of the State
Experimental Station, Morgantown,
yesterday made his second and last
tour of the Berkeley County San Jose
scale infested orchards to note the eff
feet of the recent experiment in spray
ing. The Professors announcement
|of the result of the spraying is that it
was fairly successful. Where the
weaker solution, that is mixture of
Oil and water, was used, there are
number Of live insects on the trees,
altho a number of them were killed
Where the pure and crude oil was
used the result was entirely satisfac-
tory and it is the opinion of the pro-
fessor that these are the two best in
gradients to be used in the extermina-
tion of the pest. 1t was at first feared
that the oil, unless weakened, would
kill the trees, but the experiment has
shown to the contrary.
Where the whale soap was used the
result was also good, but not as much
SO as where the pure petroleum and
crude oil was used.
The spraying has had the effect Of
abating to a certain degree the spread
Of the much-dreaded pest, and the war,
which will be continued, will, it is
hoped, exterminate the pest.
The orchards that were visited by
Prof. Corbett yesterday were those Of
Clyde Borum, Ambrose Bros, j. t.
Janney and State Senator Burkhart
The trees are now bearing fruit and
it would be injurious TO them to spray
at this season. Therefore no spray
ing will be done until fall. The in
sects are now propagating and can be
seen moving about over the trees.

An Extensive Peach Orchard.

The largest peach orchard in Wood
county is owned by Sam II b. Taylor
whose farm is aear Mineral Wells.
His orchard contains 5000 trees, the
majority of which are Of bearing age
He will have a crop Of early varieties
some OF which he has been delivering
in market the past few days at good
prices.
The farmers OF this county are pay
ing more attention to peach culture
OF late years, and there are quite q
number OF orchards with from 100 t0
500 trees and a few that have as many
as 1000 trees. But Mr.. Taylor's or
chard is by long odds the largest ia
this section.

a PIONEERS DISCOVERY.
Two Old Indian Fighters Experience
with ConnellsYille Coking Coal.

Fred G. Keighley, manager of the
Oliver d Snyder Steel Company 5
coke works in the Connellsville re-
gion, at meeting of the Central
Mining Institute of Western Penn
sylyania read paper on the history
of the Gonnellsyille coking coal. He
quotes a story taken from Forest
and Stream that describes the first
discovery and use as fuel OF coal in
Fayette county. Elias Black, a
Quaker and pioneer settler of South
western Pennsylvania, was aroused
one night by hurried rapping at
his door Opening it he admitted a
famous Indian fighter, Lewis Whet
zell, and Jonathan Gates, who was
known as Long Arms
Friend Lewis, said Blank, ''wnere
have thee and our friend been, and
where beund?"
Il want to get out OF here at once"
said Whetzell, and Long Arms is of
the same opinion. This eountry's
bewitched, and Long Arms and /
are nearly scared to DEATH
Friend Lewis, thee must not tell
such stories to me- said old Elias.
'sThee knows | am thy friend, and
have saved thee when a price was
on thy head / know thou art a man
Of courage. and friend Jonathan
Gates, whom some call Long Arms,
fears nothing on earth, and I'm fear
tul of nothing anywhere else; and yet
thou tellest me that lie and thee are
scared even almost unto death.
Shame on thee SO to declare before
thy friend, who loves ye both as If he
were thy father
No, no, Elias" said Whetzell
dropping into the Quaker speech.
Il tell thee no lie; we are scared.
Yesterday afternoon we were in hid
ing about mile from Dunkard
creek, an in the evening we built a
fire under the bank very carefully,
and we got some black rocks to prop
up little kettle, and put them be-
side the fire rather than in it, and
the black rocks took fire and burned
fiereely, with a filthy smoke and a
bright light, and Long Arms said
the devil would come if we stayed,
and we grabbed our kettle and pour
ed out the water, and made our way
here, leaving the black rocks to
burn .
Elias Blank was much interested.
He did not tell Whetzell what the
black rocks were, but he found out
exactly where the men had made
their fire, and when they went away
he gave each of them new Ezra
Engle rife, knife and tomahawk,
with four pounds of powder and
supply of lead. Then he hunted up
their camping ground, found the
"black rocks" and opened a coal
bank which is still in existence in
12-foot vein of coal that is absolutely
free from slate and burns like pitch.

TWO WOMEN ARE OWNERS
OF TELEPHONE SYSTEMS.
One is in Ohio and the Other In North
Carolina Both Attend Diligently TO
The Business and are Finding IL
fsrofitohIe

If0Htabfe.
There are said 20 be only two women
in the United States who own and
operate public telephone systems
themselves. One of these is Miss
Angie Fruchy, Of McComb, O.
When the telephone fever swept
over the country several years age,
Miss Fruchy conceived the notion of
building telephone system In her
town. The idea met with the hearty
support OF her friends, and all the
business people subscribed. Now she
has 100 customers. She charges $24
year for business service and about
$15 for house service.
A girl operates the central station,
and boy attends to the stringing of
wires. Having made success Of the
local service, Miss Fruchy has built a
line about 10 miles long from Me-
Comb to Findlay, thereby enabling
her patrons to talk with people In al
most any part of Ohio. Those who
are familiar with the business say it
pays 1000 year,
The other public telephone service
owned and operated by woman is In
Asheville, N. G. The proprietress is
daughter Of former secretary of
Agriculture. 1t is understood that
she is doing a thriving business. In
both cases there are rarely any COM
plants from the patrons, and the SER
vice Is always prompt.
