The Jamestown Stamps.

Postmaster General has signed an order
for the issue Of scent jamestown Ex-
position stamps. This completes the
series of stamps to commemorate the
celebration of the settlement at James
town this summer, orders having already
been given for 1-cent and cent stamps.
The scent stamp is intended primarily
for foreign letters. The presence of for
eign ships at Hampton Roads, together
with foreign tourists, is taken as an
assurance that there will be large de-
mand for a scent stamp. The stamp will
bear bust of Pocahontas. 1t has been
decided that only 1 and 2 cent stamps
would be issued in connection with the
celebration but the demand for some
special honor to Pecahontas induced
Postmaster General Meyer to reconsider
the decision of the department. That a
likeness of Pocahontas should be select
ed for the "foreigh" stamp is thought
especially fitting, as she was the first
Indian woman to go abroad.
Like the and cent stamps, the O.
cent stamp will be of oblong shape,
differing in size from the Pan American
stamps by just one-sixteenth of an inch.
The scent stamp will be printed in blue,
the 1-cent in green and the 2 cent in red
The 1-cent stamp will bear likeness
of Capt. John Smith and the 2-cent
stamp scene of the landing of the
jamestown settlers in 1907. All the
d esigns, which have been prepared by
the Bureau of Engraving and Printing,
are highly ornamental, bearning, besides
the principal features, borders of patrio-
tic emblems.
The stamps will be printed immediate
ly alc will be placed on sale in all post
offices in the United States on the open
ing day of the Exposition, April 26.

Protect Your Orchards.

Mr.. Thomas B. Symons, State Etomol-
ogist. sends US the following letter:
Mr.. ED1ToR:-Much depends upon the
activity of the general fruit grower at
this time of the year as to the life of his
trees in the future and quality of his
fruit this season. The San Jose Scale is
generally disseminated throughout the
state. Even if you are sure your trees
have not this pest among them, it would
be money we'll spent to spray them as a
preventative as well AS to add vigor to
the trees.
Trees infested with the above scale
must be treated at least once year and
should be SPRAYED while the trees are
Dormant. We find that. with our exper-
iments. the late application in the sprin G
just before the buds open, seems to be the
most satisfactory time.
We, therefore, urge every orchardst
or person who has few trees to give
them attention and spray them this
spring with the Lime-sulphur wash,
which we find to be the best insecticides
for the control of this pest.
The Department stands ready to aid all
persons in the state as to giving further
instructions in making and applying the
spray mixture, both by personal as we'll
as public demonstrations. 1t also stands
ready to enforce the law in direfully
neglected cases and We will give our
prompt attention to complaints in any
vicinity where such cases exist. Get
your materials and apparatus ready to
commence work at favorable time.
The most convenient method Of making
the Lime sulphur wash and a discussion
Of the other insecticides on the market in
this state, are given in bulletin No. 112
published by the Maryland Experiment
Station, copy Of which can be had for
the usking. Amy further information
will be gladly given.
Very Truly Yours.

while working at the navy yard and was
taken to Providence Hospital, Washing

age. His wife and FIVE children survive
him. He came to this county twenty
three years ago from Erie, Pa.
The rowboat ferry between Alexan-
dria and Fox's ferry, in Oxen Hill dis
trict, this county, which has been discon-
tinued for several months on account of
the ice has resumed service, and passen-
gers are being ferried across the river
daily. Until about ten years ago a small
steamer was urged on this route, but the
filling up the channel through the flats
opposite Alexandria and the refusal of
Congress to dredge it out caused the aban-
donment of the enterprise. When the
steam ferry was in service market wag-
ons laden with the products of the many
truck farms in that section were convey
ed across the river and were taken from
Alexandria to Washington by the ferry
line, thus saving the long drive over the
roads to the markets in Washin gton.

Th& late DIR. Perry.

At meetning held in Hyattsville
March 9th, committe of 8 composed OF
Drs. Latimer, chairman, diversified an
Griffith was appointed to prepare and
report resolutions upon the death of the
late Dr.. Perry The following is the re-
port:
Mr. President, the committee appointed
to prepare report to the meeting anu
resolutions expressive of the sensibility
of the members of the Prince Georges
County Medical Association at the loss
of our beloved colleague, submit the fol-
lowing:
The Prince Georges County Medical
Association. having learned of the
death of DR.. Van Lear Perry, at his home
EVANSVILLE, Maryland. on the eight day
of March, nineteen hundred and seven,
have deemed it fitting that they should
assemble and given expression to their
appreciation of his character, ability and
life-work
For many years DR.. Perry was engag-
ed in the active practice Of his profes-
sion, and in our u ssociations with him in
the practice of medicine, and socially and
personally, we have been impressed pro-
foundry with his ability as a physician,
and his character aud worth as a man.
In all his medical work he was govern
ed by the highest standard of profess
ional ethics. He was never heard to
express an unkind word of brother
practitioner, and he was ever ready to
lay aside personal comfort to respond
promptly to the aid Of q colleague. He
was most charitable, never allowing the
consideration of fee to influence his
work. He Was an honor to the profes-
sion. He lived for others, and his bright
CHEEKY disposition was beacon of light
to all those who knew him.
While still comparatively young man
he had attained prominent standing in
the profession, and the medical frater-
nifty and the community at large, have
sustained severe loss in his death
THEREFORE, BE 1T RESOLVED:
1st That in the death of DR.. Van Lear
Perry, the medical fraternity of this
county has lost one of its most respected
members.
end. That in his death we have lost a
m ost valuable citizen. His sympathies
were broad, and his interest in the we.
fare of his fellow-men was hearty and
sincere.
3rd. That as a man, his honor was the
guide of all his actions. His character
was pure and true; his loyalty to his
friends was unfailing, and his charity
and consideration for all was uniform and
continuous. He left an example to be
smulated by all who survive him.
That we tender to his wife and family
our sincere sympathy in their bereave-
ment.
9Th. That the Secretary of this Asso-
citation shall have these resolutions pub
lshed in the official organ of this Society;
and that copy of these resolutions shall
oe sent to his family.
