Cures for Blight Have Been

State.

Interesting Facts from the State
Entomologist-A Cure That

The disease known as pear blight
fire blight, >wig blight. etc. attacks
the apple, pear and ounce. It is caused,
in each case. by an organism known to
the scientist as hycrococcus amylovo-
rous which has been often grown in
the laboratory in artificial cultures and
8inoculatcd into the trees to prove that
z 1t causes the disease.
These organisms are SO small that
they must be magnlfed many times
to become visible. They remain DOR
mant during the winter, but as the
sap starts to flow In the spring they
take on new life and increase in num-
Der at very rapid rate The sap
Is likely to ooze out along the bor-
ders of the blight spots on the trunks
and limbs Of the trees as growth
starts up in the spring. a single
drop of this sap carries millions of
the blight cells, or bacteria. and in
sects, especially bees, are likely to visit
this sweetish sap and then visit the
blooms or tender shoots Of the trees
thus spreading tho bacteria to them
Wind and rain may aid in distributing
the bacteria also, and wherever this
organism comes property into contact
with tho trees in these or o Their ways

here to Lewiston, N. c.
However, the town did not begin to
build any until about five years ago.

No. Is. OF this Office, prepared by Pros
fessor William 3. Atwood, then con-
sulting9 entomologist to the Crop Pest
Commission about four years ago 1T
occurred to me to try stimulation, with
a view of rendering the tissues resist
ant This was attempted in 1901 on
couple thousand trees with good re-
suits, and was repeated, and other
trees included, in 1902 and 1903. Thus
far the effect has been remarkable.
Trees which had been literally cut to
pieces in removing blight wood were
saved. Two trees in the experiment,
on which the blight had extended to
the trunk so as to leave scarcely any
live tissue, have lived through the last
two years against all expectation. All
trees where blight had. not extended
to the trunk were saved. Since be-
ginning this treatment no cutting of
l.El:ght wood has been allowed, except
that here and there an entirely dead
limb has, been removed.
THE treatment has been by use OF
acid phosphate, IA per cent. goods, two
parts; muriate of potash, 80 per cent.
goods, one part mixed and applied
freely over tho soil about the trees.
I'rom five to fifteen pounds have been
{
Of trees treated. We make the appli-
cation before the buds push, and work

Fourteen Hundred People, a

When Richmond determined to en-
large her borders by taking advan-
tage of the Anderson annexation law,
the village OF Paramount, which butted
up against the city beyond Twenty
third Street, on the northeast corner,
was the first to manifest anxiety to
be taken into Greater Richmond, and
its people were greatly rejoiced when,
by the decision OF the courts, the VIZ

town government an ample supply Of
officers. and q bonded debt Of $780, 900.
This debt was created to give the
sidewalks, and do as many other
,, things as the fund would admit Of
Paramount also has splendid pub
lie school building, in which twelve
teachers looked after the education OF
6C5 pupils The school was operated
under the direction Of the school off,

started much other work in this line
( which Richmond will complete In due

The population OF Paramount is 1 400

The Passing of a Delusion.

| Word comes from London that the
recent death of an old soldier from
heart failure was the cause of
post-mortem clinic in which the ply
siclans decided that the collapse
was due Ito the pernicious habit of
putting out the chest" AS a result,
the British army has abolished the
Ipuffedout chest, which has, for over
100 years, been the vogue. Since
| long before Waterloo. "chests out
stomachs in" has been the order on
the British drill grounds. America
followed suit; every major-domo in
the athletic clubs, every teacher of
calisthenics and dramatic art has
promulgated the same idea. Well
trained ladies and gentlemen, smil-
ing in spite of all, have walked the
streets and boulevards at the angle
of the leaning tower of Pisa, tor
tured, but determined to be correct.
An old officer, discussing the system
of drill so long prevalent, said:
"The puffed-out chest Is a delu-
sion which has succumbed to scien-
tiflc knowledge of the, human body.
It came into existence purely for
show reasons or from false analogy
It was seen that men deep in the
chest were strong men, and the old
drill sergeants probably imagined
that by making men throw out their
chests they would make them strong,
as well as make them look strong,
which is a complete mistake. In
stead OF strengthening a man, putting
his chest tends to weaken him, as II
thrown a strain upon the heart. We
now tell men to be sure and not pun
out their chests. If you pun out
your chest and do.dumbel exercise
you are to hold the breath. That
strains the heart. Any exercise that
prevents breathing freely is bad.
Knoted muscles are also wrong.
You see a man with immense chest,
muscles and perhaps you think he is
really an ideally trained man, but
such muscles simply bind the chest
and tie the heart down. Reader.
