Speed Of the Motor Boat.

The fastest torpedo boat in the
navy Of the United States would be
left far behind in race by the latest
type OF motor boat, which is said to
have. made speed of 80 miles an
hour. It is natural that such per
formance should have led to the dis
cussion Of the practicabilty of using
motor boats in the navy. Naval ON
GERS think that motor boat could
have single torpedo tube fitted in
the bow and, thus equipped, could be
sent on the deadly errand Of the pres
ent torpedo boat. Every lrst-class
battleship could have at least one
motor boat of this design and equip.
ment which could be carried on deck.
In actual warfare it could be lowered
and sent against the enemy, and by
reason Of its size and speed 1t might
be able to get within range before
being sunk.-Boston Globe. 80

Apples Immune to Disease.

"A prominent factor In this bust
ness OF apple growing and one which
fruit growers have not taken note OF
In the past" says Professor Herrick,
"is that some varieties are practical
ly immune to certain diseases. For
instance, the Ben Davis, Duchess, Vel.
low Transparent, and Yellow Newton
are not seriously affected by the scab
The Russet, Northern Spy, and Rome
Beauty are practically immune to the
ravages Of the San Jose scale; while
Northern Spy, Fall Pippln, and Rome
Beauty are not injured by the Bor-
deaux mixture. The spray for scah
and codllng moth should be Bordeaux
mixture and an arsenite and applied
before the blossoms open. and again
after the blossoms drop two weeks
later, and from the present indications
1t would seem that we must apply the
third spray the last OF July or the first
of August for the codllng moth"

Trees For Waste Land.

The time is not so far distant as the
average man imagines when the in
creased price Of lumber will make
necessary the planting of trees even in
good agricultural land. The price OF
timber lands is doubling every few
years. Col. VIM. S. Harvey, presi-
dent Of the Philadelphia Commercial
Museums, and old-time lumberman,
who has been working for the passage
by Congress Of the Appalachian Forest
Reserve bill, says that within the past
six years lands in the southern Appa-
lachian timber regions have Increased
from IS or Sc an acre to SIS and $40.
Even at $40, and in spite of the fact
that transportation is poor, this land
is considered good buy
But the man who gets It now and
plants to trees any waste land Is the
man who will have bank account all
right when his forests begins to yield.
1t takes 40 or 80 years to grow big
logs; but 1t takes only ~, Is or 16
years to grow fence posts, railroad
ties and telephone poles, and the pric-
es for these are increasing by leaps
and bounds.

Heavy Cost Of Strikes.

In the % years 1881 to 1905, ac-
cordlng to the twcnty-frst annual re-
port of the Bureau OF Labor of the
Department OF Commerce and Labor,
there were 36,757 strikes and 1,54G
lockouts. affecting 100000 Industrial
establishments, and almost 1900 900
workers. Fewer strikes occurred I'm
1905 than In any Of the l3 years since
1892. In that year, 1905, the strikes
numbered 2,077, involving s,292 es-
tablshments and l76,337 wage earn
ers, each Of whom lost an average Of
81 days work. In fact that loss ap.
piled to 22l,GSG persons thrown out
