DimcultIe. Of Fruit crowIur.


Fruit growing is now perpetual
warfare against insect pests and fun
gous diseases. Most OF these troubles
have been imported from older coun-
tries where they have prevailed for
ages. until the people have nearly
starved-in fact, have starved by thou
sands, because they lacked the knowl-
edge or the energy to combat these
enemies. Many OF these enemies Of the
fruit growers have become naturalized

Liabliiis " Farmer Employer.


An English farm laborer recently
died from blood poisoning, and his wild
ow brought suit for damages against
his employer under the provisions of
the workmen's compensation act II
was shown that the deceased had suf-
fered an abrasion OF the skin on the
nape OF the neck as the result Of car
rying heavy bags OF fertilizer upon his
shoulders. and the Inflammation that
followed developed into blood poison
ing. the inference being that the wound
was poisoned by the fertilizing mate
rial.
Although It did not appear that the
employer had been uuduly careless or
that he had imposed unnecessary risk
upon his employee, the court ordered
him TO pay f15O (nearly $3.50 to the
widow and children OF the deceased
workman, and as an appeal was taken
he was ordered TO pay the widow 81 a
month until the matter was settled.
The case Is of interest to farmers gen
orally as showing the sweeping nature
OF a law that would seem at first
thought to apply chiefly TO factories
and other lines of industrial effort far
removed from the farm.-Rural New
