Yesterday and all roads leading to that
lonely old meeting house in Frederick

tinsburg was well represented, but not 50
much so as on previous occasions.
The occasion yesterday was the one
hundred and siXty-ntth annual meeting Of
the Society of Friends Of Winchester
Circuit III the original church building,
which is still standing. The building is
one of the oldestin the Valley and has
long since been condemned as unsafe. but
the Friends continue to hold their meet

stone building is taxed to its utmost ca
pacity.

it would surely be a bad move for the
company TO run them through without

Spraying in the Orchards.

The spraying Of the orchards in Berke-
lev county infested with San Jose scale
has turned out 70 be successful beyond
expec alton. Prof l.. G. Corpett, Of the
State Experimental Station Morgantown.
and Post Master Clohan, have just com
pieted tour OF inspection Of the orchards
in which the spraying was done IN the
early spring and they report that the
spraying was the most successful that
they had ever seen. IL could hardly have
been more successful.
The spraying has demonstrated one
fact. and that is that the San Jose scale
can be controlled thereforet the iruit
growers take the proper precautions and
spray properly, they need have no tear
that death has been dealt 10 the fruit
growing industry by the San Jose scale.
In the orchards Of Ambrose Bros and
Clyde Borum, in which the experiment
was tired, not a tree was found injured
and about all of the scale was found TO
have been killed. II was the spraying
do lie with the pure kerosine that prov
cd be the most successful. On the trees
sprayed with this hardly one of the pest
was found to exist. On the frees sprayed
with the Is per cent kerosine mixture
nearly all were killed, as was also the case
with the rs per cent crude oil. The
whale oil soap, which showed the poorest
results of them all, killed about 80 per
cent Of the insects. Prof. Corbett at first
feared that some Of the trees would be in
jured, but such was not found to be the
case and the professor has marked it
Il. Ill
periments that he has ever made.
Yesterday they sprayed in the orchards
Of Messrs. Bowers, Faulkner and Clohan
to prevent the work of the catlin moth, or
insect that deposits worms IN the apples.
Paris green and laurel green with Dor
deaux mixture was used in the spraying.
Today Prof. Corbett went TO the or
chard of Mr.. James Ianney in the other
end Of the county to see the results OF the
