AS to Spraying Fruit Trees.

The Allen county Horticultural
society contemplates small fruit ex-
hibit at the Pan-American exhibit at
Buffalo. To make anything of a sue
cess it will be necessary for our fruit
growers to commence spraying to in
sure fruit suitable for exhibit. The
following formula for spraying seems
to be the latest and best.
BoRDEAU FOR PREVENTING ROT AND
ERUIT DISEASES.
Six pounds blue vitriol dissolved in
hot water and four pounds strong lime
slack and dissolve in water and strain
through two thickness Of coffee sack
do not mix until ready to spray as it
spoils in a short time when ready add
80 gallons of water.
POISONS KILL WORMS AND LEAF EAT
ING INLECTS.
Arsenite of soda, one quart, lime
two pounds, water 80 gallons. Slack
the lime and strain through coffee
sack.
This and the above formula for
Bordeau can be used together and
save separate sprayings and is intend
ed for apple and pear trees, For plum,
cherry and peach tree, double the
amount of water. The arsenite of soda
can be procured at most drug stores
and is much better than Paris green
or London purple.
To kill insects that suck the juice of
plants use concentrated lye one-fourth
of pound to 80 gallons of water.
b. f. Pancoast, secretary of the
Horticultural society will take
pleasure ingiving anyfur informa.
tion on the subject. The canker
worm is now damaging number
of orchards and the abundant bloom
ing of all fruit trees gives promise o
big pay to those who will intelligentlI
do battle for the prize of good crop
and the fruit that is needed to ship ant
add to the collection already at the ex
hibit will be guarded by timely ant
prompt work.

Elsmore Enterprise Logic.

Editor Jesse Decker of the Elsmore
Enterprise printed the following level
headed reasoning on the court house
question:;
"Why should we build courthouse?
We answer because it is needed.
Any man who will stop and consider
the matter will agree that the old
house does not meet the requirements
of the county. Some people say oh!
well, we can get along, and it takes
money to build anew courthouse So
did the people few years ago get
along without a bridge at the Engel-
hardt ford and at the Hibbs ford and
at the Jones ford, and it cost money
to build those bridges. That does not
alter the fact that they are boom to
the township and more than pay for
themselves in convenience to the gen.
eral public. If the talk that we can
get along with the old court house is
good argument, then let us quit fixing
our roads and spending money for
new bridges, Last year a good stone
bridge was put in near Mrs. Wilson'S s
on the Moran road, and everybody
we ever heard speak of it said lit was
good thing, just what should have
been done long ago, and yet that cul-
vert cost about 5000 and we could
have got along without it, anyway
we did for years.
"Such arguments are silly. The
facts are, the county has no court
house, but only a make shift that is
too small unsafe and unfit for the
business it is necessary to carry on in
it, and the county should, as a matter
of business, build safe, commodious,
we'll arranged, solid building, and the
plan for doing it is sensible one,
Go to the polls May and cast your
vote for the proposition and you will
make no mistake"

Money Spaded Up in a Garden.

Will Green, who lives in the east
part of the county, dropped into Clai-

rather unusual story. He said that
while spading in his garden AT home
he saw something green on the spade
and picking it up found it was the cor
ner of a ten dollar bill, the piece be-
ing barely large enough to tell the de-
nomination. He thinks he spaded
through it and spent the rest of the
day digging about through the patch
seeking the rest of the bill, but so far
has not been able to find it. Garden
ing is quite profitable in some locali-
ties but this story seems to prove
Allen county soil by far the richest.
