Q. When is the best time to prune
grapes? Does early pruning pay2

before the first of March. December is

and you are not so badly rushed in the
spring.
Q. Is there anything that will stop
rabbits from eating young treesY
A. Yes. \ ferret and shot gun are
the best, but solution of pounds of
whale oil soap and , pounds of pow
dered asafoetida dissolved in 2 gallons
of water and applied with IA brush will
be etfectual.
O. My apple trees last season had a
small fuzzy insect around the scars
where limbs had been cut of and looked
like mould but were live insects. Do
they do any hurt and what is the rem
edy?
A. The insect is the wooley aphis.

well soaked in around the trunk at the
ground to kill those on the roots

Jose scale IN Van Buren, county and

THE STRIKE SPREADS.

Drivers of Ice Wagons Prohibited from
Delivering Ice to Retail Butchers.
Chicago, Aug. 4.-The threatened
spread of the stock yards strike to out
side industries came last night, when
an order was issued by the teamsters'
union prohibiting drivers Of Ice wagons
from making and deliveries to retail
merchants. who, since the packing
house teamsters went OH strike, have
been hauling meat from the yards in
their own wagons. AS the refrigerators
in the meat markets do not hold
enough ice to last longer than forty
eight hours, If the order cutting off the
supply of ice can be enforced it means
that the majority OF people In chicago
will be compelled to so on short rations
as far as meat is concerned. The Of
fieials of the teamsters' union have APP
pointed pickets to watch all over the
city and these have been instructed to
see that the boycott is carried on to
the limit.
Policeman Injured.
In a riot which broke out at the yards
last night. two policemen were injured.
and twenty eight rioters We're arrested,
after having been beaten into sub5uga-
ton. The trouble started when FIVE
strike breakers from one OF the ma
chine shops in one of the packing
plants We're leaving the yards and tried
TO board street ear TO go to their
homes. Despite the signals OF the
strike breakers, the motormen on
twelve cars refused to stop, and a
crowd standing nearby seeing a good
opportunity to get revenge on the non-
union men, commenced to throw stones
at them. Two policemen who were
guarding the entrance went to the as
sistance of the non-union men, but the
rioters by this time had grown in num-
bers SO rapidly that fully thousand
angry men We're trying to get at the
strike breakers. Retreating back into
the machine shop the policemen sent
in riot call for reinforcements.
When the additional policemen arr
rived. a charge was made on the riot
ers. The crowd was armed with
bricks and stones, and when the po-
liceinen started forward every man
who could find room enough threw a
brick. Two of the bricks went to the
mark and two of the policemen droppei
in their tracks. having been hit on
the head They We're picked up by
their companions and taken inside the
machine shops, where 1t was found
that one Of the men, Patrick Ryan,
was suffering from a fractured skull.
The other policeman was not so SER
iously hurt Seeing the condition of
their companions, the other eighteen
policemen made another charge on the
crowd This time the onslaught was IN
earnest. eighteen clubs being swung
from right to left with all the muscle
that each man could muster. Each time
a club descended it landed on mans
head, and fully fifty OF the rioters
were beaten to the pavement in this
manner before they showed any signs
of scattering. AS soon as the police
men saw that they had the mob on
the run. they turned their attention to
those who We're lying on the ground
and succeeded in arresting twenty
eight of them before they could scram-
BILE to their feet and get away.
