Rhodes Examinations To Be At
Hopkins.

Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore,
scholarship examinations, which will be
held there on October 1o and 20. Appli-
cations will be received by President
Remsen, chairman of the Maryland Conn
mittee of Selection, not later than Oct. I6.
The conditions for candidates for the
scholarship in regard to age and college
requirements are the same as in previous
years, but there has been an important
change made this year in the Oxford re-
quirements, which will, it is thought,
make many take the examinations who
would not otherwise attempt it. 1t is
thought that the fact that Greek has
previously been required as subject on
which satisfactory examination must be
passed has prevented many who have not
included the subject in their course. This
year Latin and mathematics will qualify a
candidate; however, Greek is still con-
sidered equally important at Oxford, and,
after he has passed his examination in
Latin and mathematics, the candidate will
be compelled to pass examinations in
Greek in taking up his residence at
Oxford.
The selection of successful candidates
as a result of this years examination will
be made in December, and those selected
will begin their residence at Oxford in
October, 1910.

Fruit Trees Revived After Ravages
OF San Jose Scale.

That fruit trees attacked by San Jose
scale and apparently "killed" are dead
only from the outside, while the inside
wood retains its sap-life, is the conclusion
of scientists who have watched with great
interest the experiments for reclaiming
scale-ruined orchards in Burlington
county, New Jersey. Previously publish
ed facts concerning the experiments with
.resurrected" trees on the famous N. P.
Creely farm, near Burlington, have
aroused special comment, and, while rival
scientists hold conflicting ideas as to
whether a tree can produce an santi-toxin
value that will negative further attacks
from the San Jose scale, it is at least ad-
mitted by the best authorities. after the
results obtained here during the last sum
mer, that trees once thought to be ruined
can be brought back to productive use
fulness.
An interesting view Is taken by State
Entomologist Smith, who has made an
exhaustive study of the Greedy orchard
His conclusions are that many orchards
can be saved by treatment similar to that
given the experimental tract of ten acres.
The favorable results, he says, do not
prove that trees inoculated themselves,
but that the life of the old wood was
allowed to reassert itself after the dead,
tender growth had been removed.
The Creely orchard, says Entomologist
on which the lime and sulphur mixture
was used in fighting the scale. The trees
thrived and fruited heavily for several
years, when for some reason the mixture
failed to check the scale. The result was
that the plague swept the orchards like
confagration, leaving not green twig.
What happened was that this orchard
of comparatively young trees died largely
from the outside-that is, the outer twigs
and branches were killed while the older
wood was to considerable extent living"
says Entomologist Smith, commenting on
the case. "The result of the scale attack
is to make the outer bark of the trees dry
and hard. and if you put lime or other
caustic mixture over that you get crust
that the ordinary scale cannot penetrate.
The practical outcome of the whole matter
was that the trees looked dead; but as a
matter of fact the trunks and lower
branches were still in good condition.
They cut out all the wood that bore living
scale and left that part of the wood cover
ed by the old tough bark, which the scale
could not penetrate, and which was really
alive.
Naturally enough, with the dead wood
cut out, the trees made a new start, and,
naturally enough. too. all these new
shoots will be practically free of scale.
Wherever, however, there are living scale
left on the rree these new shoots will be-
come infested and must be treated to pro-
tect them"

troubled by her fairy tales and felt it
time to talk seriously to her upon the

with the warning that God could not
love child who spoke untruthfplly
