THE FINANCIAL FURRY.

The recent furry in the hnan-
cial world was unlike any former
experience, 30 far a. the west is
concerned, at least, IL appears to
have started with the banks, and
ended where it started. Evident
ly the people could not SEQ any
reason for q panic in this section Of
the country, and they declined to
become . party to the creation Of
one. Another unusual feature
was that the bankers, at the first
sign of furry, took the people into
their confidence, and openly pro-
claimed the facts, and::conditions a.
they were, and requested the pub
lie to cooperate with them in check
ing the movement, instead Of con-
cealing the true conditions, as has
too often been the case in the past.
There are also very good reasons
for the confidence Of the people Of
Idaho,in their banking institutions,
one of which is the banking law
passed by the Idaho Legislature at
its 1905 session, which is conceded
to be one of the best in the U. 8.
for the regulation Of all Of the
banks, and trust companies in the
state, and the protection of the
public. Under this statute all
banks are under the supervision OF
the State Bank Commissioner,
whose duty it is to make personal
examination OF every bank in the
state, at least twice year, and to
call for published statements when.
ever he deems it necessary. II up
on examination, the capital Of any
bank is found to be impaired to
any extent whatever, it is the duty
Of the Commissioner to call upon
the stock holders to make 10 the
loss, and upon their failure to do
80, he must close the bank. Under
the stringent regulations OF this
law, the public will soon come to
understand that the fact OF bank
being permitted to DO business is a
guarantee Of its soundness, and
this il "a it should be. The new
Idaho law appealed 80 strongly to
the people of Oregon and Wash.
ington that the Legislatures of those
states have since passed the same
law, thus admitting that they con.
sidered it better than the banking
law of any other state in the
Union. The examination, and re.
gulation of the National banks are
also much more thorough than for.
merly. The time has come when
nnsound banks will be closed by
the National or State authorities IN
time to prevent any loss to thu
public. The present condition,
are widely different from wha,
they we're . few years ago, when
there was no supervision Of Stat,
banks whatever, and the change
Justifies the confidence of the pub
lie in the Idaho banks.

strength Bordeaux just before the
leaves begin to open in the spring.
Then after the petals have fallen spray
with half strength or two-thirds

oughly done this will be sufficient to
control this disease. Some recon-
mend spraying two or three times

winters over on the leaves in little
sacks. In the spring when the
weather gets warm these sacks burst
open and the spores are carried about
with the wind and in this way reinocu-
late the trees. If, therefore, the leaves
are raked up and burned, the num-
Der of spores are greatly lessened.
Some good may be accomplished by
blowing under the leaves in the
winter.
For the black spot canker the trees
should be sprayed in the fall, after
the leaves have fallen, with double
strength Bordeaux. Repeat the op-

ed with black spot canker, called
often apple anthracnose, and claim
to cure them, are quackS and
should be fired out at the front gate.
The same is true of those who claim
that the disease is caused by some
condition of the soil. Unchain the
bull dog and say, "Sic." Any one
troubled with black spot canker, apple
scab or brown rot should write to the
State College at Pullman, Wash, and
ask for the bulletin on the black spot
canker prepared by Prof Lawrence.
1t is the best thing l have ever seen
on this subject.
1t is a good plan to use some blue
stone in spraying for the cOdling
moth. Two or three pounds of blue
stone in fifty gallons of the spray
material will act as fungicide. Care
must be taken to use as many pounds
of lime as there are pounds of blue
stone. Where we use arsenate of
lead in spraying for codling moth no
lime is needed, but if blue stone is
added, the lime must be added in
order to neutralize the acid. The
foliage of trees will be benefited by
using the blue stone, even where
there is no scab or rot. Healthy foil
age is very important in all tree life
and especially is this true in fruit
bearing trees. 1t is a great mistake
to suppose that the leaves on the trees
are chiefly for ornament. They are
the workshop where sap transforma-
ton goes on and without their help
in this work the trees will die.
The ranch. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1902-1914, 1907-03-01

In the last issue of The Ranch the
subject of spraying for the control
of the San Jose scale was pretty
thoroughly treated. 1t is believed
that one who follows the directions
there laid down will meet with sue
cess in heading off the ravages of
this pestiferouS insect, and our rea-
son for this belief is the fact that we
have succeeded in that way. But in
some sections of the great northwest
the apple scab is serious pest and
its ravages must be met by spray
ing. Let it be borne in mind that
the apple scab, the brown rot and
black spot canker are all fungous
diseases. Nothing is equal to some
form of copper in killing the spores
of fungi The best form of copper is
the sulphate of copper commonly call
ed blue stone or blue vitriol. The sui
phuric acid in this compound will in
jure our trees and this acid must be
neutraEzed. To do this lime is used.
But this combination of lime and sui
plate of copper is called the Borde-
aux mixture because it was first used
in Bordeaux, France This mixture
retains the fungicidal property of the
copper, while the acid principle of
sulphur is neutralized by the lime.
The proportions of lime blue stone
and water are different according as
The ranch. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1902-1914, 1907-03-01

the time of spraying is whether the
trees are dormant or in leaf.
For the dormant season six pounds
of blue stone six pounds of lime and
fifty gallons of water are commonly
used This is commonly called full
strength Bordeaux. Half the blue
stone and half the lime with the fifty
gallons of water make what Is called
half strength Bordeaux. Doubling the
lime and blue stone, the water re-
naming the same, furnishes us with
double strength Bordeaux. All these
preparations are used, and in some
cases even notifications of these
quantities are used, such, for instance,
as four pounds of lime, four pounds
of blue stone and fifty gallons of
water. Great care must be exercis-
ed In the preparation of these COM
pounds To illustrate this, suppose
we want to make fifty gallons of full
strength Bordeaux mixture, dissolve
six pounds of blue stone in twenty
five gallons of water, Stake six pounds
of good lime and make twenty-five
gallons of the lime water, then have
these two preparations poured into
fifty gallon casket at the same time.
Thoroughly stir the mixture as these
preparations are poured together. The
same precautions must be used in
making the different strengths. The
Bordeaux mixture must not stand
long after being prepared for it will
undergo chemical changes and its
efficiency will be greatly impaired if
not totally destroyed. Use 1t the same
day it is made.
