The Pest of all Trees.
Spraying Only way To- Fightit
The San Jose scale has undoubtedly
come to stay in Michigan orchards and
among Michigan foliage and timber, work.
ng with its thoroughly destructive effects
until the life of the tree or shrub is entirely
gone.
The only possible way to successfully
combat the evil say expert authority who
have given particular and careful atten-
ton to the scourge since its appearance in
this state is to spray thoroughly and con-
tinue to do so every year.
A public demonstration was given last
Thursday afternoon by Prof. T. R. Farrand
of Kalamazoo, deputy inspector of nurs-
cries and orchards under Prof. L. R. Taft
of Lansing, in Orleans In the orchard OF
A. j. Hall, and meeting of about forty
farmers in the vicinity was held IN the
town hail.
Prof. Farrand said that the scale was
sure death to trees unless active measures
we're taken at once to kill it and that must
be done by liberal application of lime
and sulphur applied thoroughly.
In the meeting at the hall he answered
many questions and gave very valuable
suggestions. He said there were very
few if any orchards in the state whici
we're not affected and the scale also at
tacks ornamental, small fruit and fores
trees.
The best mixture yet discovered to
fight it is lime and sulphur. fifteen pounds
Of unslacked lime with ten pounds of sui
phur made into a paste and boiled all to-
gether in fifty gallons of water for fort,
minutes and apply while fresh and warm
The expense of such mixture was esti-
mated at one cent per gallon.
He advised the farmers and fruit grow
ers to wake up to the m alter OF a hard
battle with this enemy.

N EW YEARS, 1907.
BY FREDERICK ANDREWS BUSH.

Swiftly the moments flying along,
Like the breath of gale. the note of song
Minutes and seconds how swiftly they glide,
Like chips that borne to the with the tide.
The old year is dying that dearest old friend
Is rushing along to its oncomng end;
And sigh and weep the slow tolling bell
Is telling to all of its funeral knell
There joys and hopes the days that have passed;
There were moments so best, if they only could last;
There and grief there suffering and pain
'Tis the lot Of us all in the life maintain.
But with all Of the sorrows and joys too WELL
Our heart seems to ache with the funeral knel.
And tear and sigh springs up from the heart
When we think that so with the old must part
But hark! In the midst of the darkness and gloom.
Behold there's another has entered the
Robed in the splendor and beauty Of morn
Another fair stranger unto us is born.
1t brings promise of wars that will cease;
1t brings promise Of plenty and peace;
1t bids US be happy and Danish each fear
And our hearts gladly welcome another New Year.
Stop toing the bell, let it ring loud and clear.
Proclamng to all the glad happy New Year.
With its joy or its whatever our lot,
This dear little stranger must not be forgot
1t is mine; it is yours; every day, every hour
Go fill it with glory. with might and with power;
Go fill it with deeds that will make Nineteen Seven
The pathway to glory the pathway to heaven.
