A RlIehtina Orchard.

A subscriber writes us. Il have an
orchard four years old that is blight

The spraying Is all right. but IL OF
doubtful efficacy In the case of blight.
We would, however. approve of the
spray, for man should spray his
orchard whether he knows there Is
anything the matter with It or not.
Spraying may help keep down the
blight and probably does. but Il Is not
generally considered an effective rem
edy. The lime doubtless does pre-
vent the spread OF the blight to some
extent by deterrlng bees and other
Insects from visiting the tender ends
Of the twigs.
Blight is produced by a fungus that
lives over winter in the live wood of a
blighted tree. In the spring there is
an emulation from the tree and this
liquid is partaken of by the bees and
other insects. which then fly to the
blossoms OF apple and other trees and
carry some Of the spores OF the fun.

shoots are visited and the spores left
on them. The tender open tissues per
NIT the blight spore to send in fila
ment at the time of its termination
and thus the disease begins. The
spores are sticky and cannot be blown
by the wind. and must be carried by
Insects or some other moving things.
As the fungi are inside Of the wood II
is easily seen that spraying cannot
reach the blight after It has become
settled in a tree. The only thing that
can be done is to cut of the blighted
portions. hoping to get below the seat
Of the disease. The dead twigs con

blighted portions. The parts trimmed
off should be burned at once TO pre-
vent the spread of possible spores.
Likewise precautions must be taken
against carrying spores from infected
to healthy wood. and so It is neces.
sary TO sterilize the knife or saw after
every amputation. This may be done
by using some germ destroying liquid
Professor Evarts Weed says that the
cutting should be done a foot below
the blighted wood.-Farmers Review

Sod Bound Trees.

Sod bound trees are not very
common, but they are to be met
with. When a tree has made
good growth and has spread out its
top to cover its feet there is little
danger of its becoming sod bound, for
the branches Of the tree catch most OF
the sunshine and the grass growth be-
low Is meager. The sod bound condi-
ton comes when the tree is either
very young or so old that the leaves
are thin and few. The young tree that
is set In grass ground and has never
obtained a very good hold of the
ground is the one most likely to be.

Pills for Pale People.

Nature Furnishes every infraction of
her laws, and careless habits easily lead
to the condition described by Mr.. Will
liam Browne, of No. 1919 Lincoln
street, St. Joseph, Mo. Mr.. Browne is
an expert timer in the employ of the
National Biscuit Co. He gives the fol
lowing account of a trying experience:
In the spring of 1907 he says,
while l was regularly working at my
trade, L grew somewhat careless in my
habits of eating and drinking, and I'm
ally found that my appetite was tickle,
a bad taste fingered in my mouth, my
nerves twitched and were beyond my
control, my kidneys were out of order
and cold sweats would break out over
my body at odd times. Perhaps, while
] stood talking with some one, this
trembling of the limbs and profuse
sweating, and severe chill would seize
me. [ became alarmed at my condition
and having read an endorsement of DR.

began to use them. They helped me at

twitching of the nerves, the trouble
with the stomach and the cold sweats
stopped and have not reappeared, and
my appetite is good. I have told all
my friends that DR.. Williams Pink
Pills cured me and / recommend them
to everybody
DR.. Williams Pink Pills cured Mr..
Browne because nothing can strengthen
the nerves except good rich, red blood
and DR.. Williams Pink Pills actually
make new blood. They don't act on
the bowels. They don It bother with
mere symptoms. They drive from the
blood the cause of anaemia, Indigestion,
nervous disorders, general weakness and
the troubles of growing girls and
women.
Furthermore, DR.. Williams Pink
Pills for Pale People are absolutely
guaranteed to be entirely harmless to
the most delicate constitution and may
be taken without fear. They have
cured thousands of cases and if you will
write to the Dr. Williams Medicine Co.,
Schenectady, N. Y, stating your trou-

the pills will cure you, proof will be
furnished; if they are not suited for
your trouble, you will be honestly told
so.
