DO YOU SPRAY7
It's the Only Protection Against Dis
eases and Insects.

Plant diseases and insects are do
ing so much damage to the orchards
and gardens in Oklahoma that it has
become necessary TO protect the
plants by some artificial means, says
a communication from the Oklahoma
station. The method of destroying
the diseased and wormy fruit and foli-
age is of great value il persistently
carried out. This cannot be done in
so thorough a manner, however, as to
destroy all the diseases and insects
present, and few left over and those
that will come from neighboring
farms will produce dangerous num-
her next year. The cheapest and
most practical method of protecting
plants from diseases and insects is
spraying. The ideal method is to
spray thoroughly and then destroy all
diseased fruit, leaves and trash about
the orchard and garden. Either meth
cd is good when used alone and the
value of each is greatly increased
when used together.
Spraying solutions are divided into
to prevent the attacks of fungus dis
eases are called fungicides, and those
designed to destroy or prevent the at
tacks of insects are called insecti-
cides.
Fungicides protect the plants by
preventing the fungus diseases from
gaining a foothold on the plants. The
solutions are composed of materials
that destroy the terminating spores
where it comes in contact with them.
The copper and sulphur compounds
are the most effective materials used
In these solutions. Most of the fun
gus diseases of plants that can be pre-.
vented by spraying reproduce by
means of two kinds of spores. One
kind of spore is produced in the
spring and summer and terminates
soon after maturity. If the spore finds
lodgment on tender growing parts of
the plant and favorable amount of
heat and moisture are present germin-
alton and growth Immediately follow.
If these spores do not soon germinate
they lose their vitality. This process
of termination, growth and fruiting
goes on during the spring and sum-
mer. Late in the season another kind
Of spore is produced, which is capable
of passing through the winter and ger
minating the following spring. The
terminating spore sends the roots d.
rectly into the tissue of the plant un-
less it is a surface growing fungus,
in which case the roots spread over
the surface of the plant If the plants
are covered with a good fungicide
when the spores germinate the spores
will be killed.

CHOICE OF TWO EVILS.
Request That Was by No Means q
. Compliment for Papa.

A New York scientist, the father of
large and growing family, has his
troubles. One evening his youngest
was holding forth in her best style.
The mother could do nothing with the
child, so the man of science went to
the rescue.
81 think I can quiet little Flora" he
said. There's no use humming to her
in that silly way. What she wants is
real music. The fact that | used to
sing in the Glee club at Yale and sang
well, too, may make difference"
Accordingly, the professor took the
child and, striding up and down the
room, sang in his best manner. He
had not finished the second verse Of
his song, when ring was heard. The
door was opened, and there stood a
girl of IA, who said:
I'm one of the family that's just
moved into the fiat next to yours.
There's a sick person with us, and he
says, if it's all the same to you, would
you mind letting the baby cry instead
of singing to it?"-Success.

Diagram for Marking Rows.

rive at b, stake of line one is moved
from to C, which puts the line in
position for marking the third row.
Before running the wheel on the
third row from to C, stake of line
two at b is moved to d. When ar
irving at C, stake at is moved to d,
which puts line two in position for
the fourth row, etc.
For long rows, continues the writer
in Orange Judd Farmer, we use one
measuring stick at each end of the
rows and one in the middle. The mid
die stick is pushed in the ground
against the line to prevent the wind
from displacing the line. When we
plant day after day we do not take up
the lines at night, but simply loosen
one end to prevent their breaking
from shrinkage. The time to wind up
the lines would cost far more than
they are worth. We can better afford
to buy new lines, say every two
years.

Care of Spruce Plantation.

MARKING ROWS.
Unique Method Followed by an Ohio
Gardener.

The old saying, More crops grow
in crooked than in straight rows"
may find favor with some growers,
but celery growers get best results
from straight rows. Straight rows
look more workmanlike and in culti-
waiting, blanching, and harvesting
straight celery rows are a necessity.
To enable one man to mark out
straight rows in the quickest possible
way, we stretch two strong cotton
lines, which costs us about % cents
apiece, where the first two rows are
to be, say three feet apart.
From garden drill we remove all
the seeding attachments and run the
drill wheels over the first line from
a to a. Before running back on Sec

the pods grows through the husk into
the seed. Frequently it grows entirely
through the pod forming similar
spots on both sides. When the fun
gus grows into the seed, brown spots
may be formed on the surface. In
the worst cases half the surface is fre.
quently discolored and the seed ad-
heres to the pod. These areas are
much more striking ON green colored

such as the Admiral.

BLIGHT OF PEAS.

In 1904 the damage in Ohio from
this blight was apparently greater

PRUNE NOW.
June is an Excellent Month to Trim
the Trees.

1t may be all right to advise prun-
ing whenever your knife is sharp, but
really the best time is during May and
June, for during these months trees
make their quickest and most vigor-
Gus growth, and the wounds made by
pruning will heal quicker now than at
any other season of the year. The
quicker the wound heals the better
for the tree. Many old horticulturists
say, prune when the leaves are as big
as squirrels ears. If pruning is done
before this time the wound is apt to
bleed" and will not heal so readily.
If large limbs are taken off paint the
stubs so that they will not dry out and
crack open. Here is where many
make a blunder says Indiana Farmer.
They leave too much stub in the first
place, and it is probably split down
one side. Before the wound is healed
over this stump is cracked and decay
sets in. While you are at it do
good, clean job, and sharp knives and
sharp saws will help you do it.

BLACK LOCUST.
It Supplies the Best-Lasting Post Tim
Der to Be Found.

Black locust is one of the most per-
sistent deciduous trees that we have
to reproduce itself from the roots, and
hence it is essential that one study
this particular variety so as to know
the right time to cut it if it is to be
killed at the root. Grubbing out the
trees and cutting them down at differ
ent seasons of the year has been
tried. If you want the timber to last
long in the ground locust should be
cut in August or September, but if
you desire to kill the trees they
should be cut in July and then in Gsr-
tember the stumps should be peeled.
The next spring an occasional sprout
will show from the roots. These will
have to be treated the same as you
would weeds to get rid of them The
black locust, says, Farmers Tribune,
is one of the best lasting post timbers
we have and should be planted out
on the prairie farms more than it is,
for this one item of post timber We
do not think 1t will last equal to the
Usage orange, but it is equal to red
cedar and can be produced on ground
at a much lower price than we have
to pay for posts at the lumber yard.

AFRAID OF PARALYSIS
A NERVOUS SUFFERER CURED
BY DR.. WILLIAMS PINK PILLS.
The Medicine That Makes Rich, Rec
Blood and Performs Wonders as
Tonic for the Nerves.


Tonic for the Nerves.
Why are nervous people invariably
pale people?
The answer to that question explains
why remedy that acts on the blood
can cure nervous troubles.
1t explains why DR.. Williams Pink
Pills for Pale People are also for nervoaa
people.
1t is because of the intimate relation
between the red corpuscles in the blood
and the health of the nerves. The
nervous system receives its nourishment
through the blood. Let the blood be-,
come thin, weak and colorless and the
nerves are starved-the victim is started
on the road that leads to nervous wreck.
Nervous people are pale people-but the,
pallor comes first. Enrich the blood
and the nerves are stimulated and toned
up to do their part of the work of the
body. DR.. Williams Pink Pills make
red blood and transform nervous, irrit-
able, ailing people into strong, energetic,
forceful men and women.

In reading from month to month
the great mass of material on the
subject of women which appears in
the various periodicals the writer of
this paper has been struck by one ex-
traordinary fact. The topic of health
most important to women and of
vital interest to them-is rarely
touched upon. Women's achieve
ments in every line of art and indus
try are admiringly set forth. Ex-
perts advise them along the lines
of their professions and ambitions,
but rarely does a great doctor lift his
voice in the friendly warning so many
of them need.
Every one knows that the ideal
physical life Is the life lived out of
doors in the sunshine and fresh air.
But women who work need a compro-
mise between this ideal system and
the dull routine into which they SO
readily fall. Every woman needs to
know, not What is the best hygienic
system for me to follow?" but, What
is the best system to which | can
adapt my daily life, with its exactions
in the way of indoor confinement and
sedentary occupations? How can
get myself and keep myself in such
condition that nerves and body are
more than equal to the strain | must
put upon them?" For women should
have more than the power to endure
grimly. They should have the robust
health, the cool and steady nerves
that give zest to mere physical ex-
istence.
To begin, then, with the morning
bath-the function with which every
woman should begin her day as reg
ularly as she leaves her bed More
nonsense has been written about the
bath than about any other hygienic
topic. Women have been advised to
take ice-cold baths, cold sprays, hot
plunges and cold packs. Again. some
doctors have protested against the
bath habit, urging women to confine
themselves to one oath week and
thus avoid the drain on the vitality
which daily bath entails. In an
swer to all this hear the words of one
of the greatest physicians in Ger
many when a distinguished American
woman consulted him:
Madam" said he, after the history
of her nervous breakdown had been
modestly related, you do not bathe
enough. Do not be indignant; the fail
ing is national one The Americans
talk great deal about their baths,
but they do not take them daily. Ev-
cry human being who is up and about
should get into a batffub once a day
and stay there ten minutes. Take
your bath in the morning, immediate
ly after rising. Have the temperature
of the water 9S degrees exactly
neither more nor less. This is the
normal temperature of the blood.
See that the temperature of the room
is the same Never get into cold
bath on rising. Cold baths have
killed thousands. Lie in your bath
of 9S degrees; get down into the tub

warm water on the surface of the
