The Triumph, though an early, SNOWY,
yellow peach, is cling, and is.very sus-
ceptible TO brown rot.
To-day Michigan promises the largest
fruit crop in its history, and also to-day
the demand promises to equal the sup
ply.
1t is reported that the peach buds In
all peach sections south and west OF
Michigan are either killed or badly dam
aged.
Michigan's peach crop will be heavy
one calling for judicious pruning and
thinning, with early and intense cultiva-
ton to secure the greatest profit.
Prune the grape with judgment as well
as with the knife. Different varieties re-
auire varied pruning; so, also, does
variety growing under different condi-
tons.
Early cultivation for all fruits is desir-
able, but do not stir the soil in orchard
or vineyard the day before frost, for
freshly stirred soil increases evaporation
which absorbs heat, thus lowering the
temperature.
Superintendent 7. A. Farrand OF the
South Haven experiment station before
the Paw Paw horticultural society APP
ril - gave an excellent paper and talk
on desirable and Undesirable New Va.
rieties of Fruits" with many specimens
as illustrations. Look for this paper IN
these columns in the near future.
In planting pear orchard very good
plan is to get dwarf trees and set them
so deep that roots will be sent out from
the pear wood above the place of its
union with the ounce stock. This will
allow the trees to bear at an early age,
before the pear roots grow much' ana
thus serve the purpose of dwarfs; and
when the pear roots attain some size
they will increase the growth of the
trees, giving them renewed vigor and
thus prolonging their usefulness far be-
yond what they would have with only
ounce roots to sustain them.
You who have the black rot in your
vineyards, spray for it at once and be
thorough The disease exists IN several
vineyards in this section. The following
description of this disease may aid in
detecting it's presence in future-the
shriveled berries of last season only re-
main: When the berry is about the size
of pea the disease usually begins to
show, though some years it appears later
and continues throughout the season
The first appearance of the fungi al
work is spot on the side of the berry
more often the south. west side. This
spot where the fungi has begun to break
down the skin tissues is smaller than the
head of a pin-with a glass it shows q
forestry mold-and increases 10 size, bui
this disease spreads more rapidly under
the skin of the grape changing the nat
ural green of an unripe berry to an olive
green spreading over the whole berry
This olive green gradually changes to {
watery, yellowish brown then shrink'
and shrivels, getting darker and darker
until it becomes dull black, ridged anC
shrunken to about one-half its forme
diameter and being covered with spore
resembling mold ready to be scattered t.
repeat it's work of destruction.

MARlpOSl IS TRIED
FOR NAIL CONTRACT

The Oceanic Steamship Company's |
liner Mariposa was given an ocean |
trial trip yesterday for the purpose Of |
demonstrating to a naval board that
the steamship had all the qualifications
exacted under the act Of 1891 OF auxil- |
larry cruisers. She exceeded the speed
requirement by more than two knots
and in every other respect won the
unanimous approval OF the naval board.

The United States recently asked for
bids for carrying the United States
mails between here and Honolulu. The
awarding Of the contract to the Oceanic
Steamship Company depended upon
yesterdays trial. Under the law the
qualifications required ability to de-
velop an average speed Of fourteen
knots and the stability to mount four
six-inch guns and secondary battery
of smaller caliber. In other words
Uncle Sam will not award mail con-
tracts on ocean routes to vessels
which could not be used as auxiliary
cruisers.

ent OF the steamship company, was in
command Of the liner during the trip.
Rear Admiral william II. Whiting.
Captain Holland n. Stevenson and Ma
val Constructor John G. 1awresey con-
stituted the naval board detailed to sit
in judgment on the liners performance.
The Mariposa left Pacific-street
wharf at 3 o'clock and proceeded d.
rectly to sea. Outside the head she
was run at full speed for six hours and
as she travelled through the ocean
swells the navy officers made careful
note of her behavior. At the end OF the
! six hours It was found that she had
! averaged a little better than sixteen
knots an hour, developing 1897 horse

In addition to satisfying Uncle San

new LIGHT ON
BRIGHT'S DISEASE

These figures are stirring up health
officials all over the country.
However, here are some additional
census facts that throw new light
on the increase:
In 1860 the census reported deaths
from Kidney Disease, but none from
Bright's Disease.
In 1890 of the 37.549 deaths that
year from Kidney Disease, over half,
viz, 22,330, were recognized as Brights
Disease.
In 1900, of the 63,612 deaths, 5S,748
lover nine-tenths) were known to be
Bright's Disease.
These figures disclose that the dis
tressing increase in Bright's Disease
is not so much due to the sudden de-
yelopment of the disease as to the
fact that what we have in the past
called Kidney Disease is in about niue

FOOT CUT OFF
Stephen Otis Suffers Misfortune
While Switching Cars Here.

Stephen Otis, young breakman on
the Wisconsin Central, had the mis-
fortune to get his foot caught between
the coupling devices of two box cars
Thursday, and his foot was so crushed
that amputation was necessary. Otis
is we'll known in Grand Rapids among
those who use the railroads to any
extent.
1t appears that the freight train
upon which Otis was breakman, was
switching in the Chicago & North
western railroad yards in the south
part of the west side, and he was
standing near box Car. An engine
and several other cars were backing
up to the one near which he was
standing and which they wished TIC
annex to the train. He raised the
coupling pin by means Of the iron rod
running to the outside of the Car and
provided for that purpose, and then
it appears he tried to push part of the
coupling device back with his right
foot and ankle were crushed to a pulp
between the cars.
His call for help attracted the crew
of the train and he was placed in a
car and the engine run to the station
here at the top of it's speed. DR..
Hougen was hurridly called by the
agent Che being the Wisconsin Central
railroad surgeon in this city and the
unfortunate man taken to the
hospital.
Then arose little question as to
who would do the WORK of caring for
the injury. DR.. Hougen, being the
surgeon appointed by the railroad for
the purpose Of attending to just such
cases as this, made ready to take care
of the man. 1t appears that DR..
Humphry, who is in charge of the
hospital refused to allow the railroad
physician to operate, saying that the
patient was brought to the hospital
and was on that account the
hospitals case. DR.. HOugen made
preparations for taking the man to
another hospital where he could take
care of him as instructed by the rail
road officials, but when the team
arrived at the hospital to convey the
injured man away SO that his wounds
could be attended to, the hospital
physicians had begun the operation.
Not wishing to cause any trouble, and
rather than delay the much needed
tending to the mans injuries.
DR.. Hougen allowed the hospital to
handle the case, though he had been
instructed by the company's agent to
take it himself, and was prevented
only by the other physicians starting
the operation against his express
directions.
The patient passed through the
operation all right, the right foot
being removed above the ankle and is
now resting easily at the hospital.
He is young man, and his home is
in Dale, Wis, where his parents now
reside, and where he will undoubtedly
be taken as soon as he is able to be
moved.
