PROF. M'CUE
ON SPRAYING"
Tells Milford Grange How
to Protect Fruit Against
Disease

Professor McCue, of the Delaware Col
lege Experiment Station recently ad-
dressed Milford Grange on Spraying"
He said:
There are two classes OF mixtures used
for san Jose scale. first the lime and sui
phur wash and second, the soluble OILS.
There are many preparations on the mar
lset and all have some merit. Crude oil
has been used with deadly effect on the
scale and II not used with great care viii
thoroughly XIII peach trees. 1t is good
thing TO use on old pear and apple trees.
The professor would not advise the US
ing of crude oil because OF the danger of
killing or injuring the trees. II used it
should be applied with a small nozzle
under high pressure and ON fair day.
There are various brands of the soluble
oils some of which have been thoroughly
tested The base is parafine oil combined
with soap or caustic alkali.
The professor believes that 10 apply
this year after year might result in injury
to peach trees though this has not yet
been proved by experience. In some
cases the soluble oil mixture cleans up
the scale better than the lime and sui
phur win; as the oil will spread and cover
4
old apple tree with anything.
There are many commercial sprays on
the market and they should be well tested
before anyone invests. There are two
sorts OF the home made soluble oil but
practically the same. one Is the Penny
oil" OF the Delaware Experiment sta
tion. While there have been some COM
plants OF the result from the Penny
or the professor thinks the trouble
came from not using It strong enough.

from the chemicals used varying ip

them twice alike.

clous can be found. The chemists have
tried to meet the need and there are

Rex brand, a commercial mixture of lime
and sulphur. has been used with unlforml,
good results on the Pacific Coast. Tber'
are complaints OF nearly every mixiur'
but often the fault is in the man using
the spray or in the machinery.
The professor would advise the frui
growg6s to buy a good commercial lint
and sulphur preparation and put on too
much rather than too little. The tree
must be well dronched. The best results
, are obtained from early fall and lat
spring spraying. Leaf curl can be eyil'

NEW VERSION OF TREASON

THE proprietors of the New York World
n and the indianapolis News may have
fierce battle before them in the effort of the gov
crnment TO convict them of libel because OF
their criticisms of the Panama Canal matter
Some persons are now saying that the edi-
tors should be held for treason on the doc
trine that criticism of the government is trea-
son. This is Imperialism and the kingy preroga-
tive with vengeance. Criticise any official and
they will throw you in jail for treason Soon
we shall expect TO hear that such criticism is
"un-American" just as the delightful John c.
Bell a former gang" District Attorney, OF
Philadelphia declared that criticisms of the
opera Salome in Philadelphia were "un-Amer-
lean"
The doctrine of treason might be extended so
that any criticisms of rich men or corporations
could be declared not only "un-American,' but
"treasonable."
The subject is big with possibilities. The
Standard Oil Company should take notice. That
company has just won great victory in the
courts by forcing the government TO abandon
the suit against it. This abandonment shows the
great variety of things that can happen in the
courts. The Standard Oil was convicted and SEN
fenced to pay fine OF twenty-nine millions; the
case is retired and thrown out of court. The
Standard Oil is perhaps waiting for an apology
from the government and it might proceed
against Judge Kenasaw Mountain Lands who
imposed the fine of S2o,ooo,ooo for treason for
daring to get in the way of the Standard Oil
Company.
One ray of comfort, however, may be ex-
tracted from these recent developments. An
other Judge in the District of Columbia has
somewhat modified the injunction against the
chiefs of the American Federation of Labor
They have not yet escaped the possibilities of
going to Jail as the chiefs of the Standard have
done. but there arc strong hopes of escape Send
ing these men to Jail and letting off the Standard
Oil Company and other alleged offenders would
make picture that might cause comment
which could be construed as reasonable if those
who want to sec Pulitzer's scalp dangling at the
belt OF the ex-Rough Rider have their way.

Primary Election Bill.

sussex Journal
The primary election bill before she
Legislature should not be enacted into
law. II would be costly and would
virtually amount to two and sometimes
three elections in one year. Then the
clause requiring all parties to make
nominations on the same day before
the same set of election officers is
enough to damn the measure.

BY large vote the French Chamber OF Depu-
ties has decided TO adopt the progressive income
tax as the basis of taxation in that country. The
entire fiscal system is to be revised. Incomes
below $1,000 year will be exempt and those
above that figure will be taxed progressively.
On very large incomes the tax rate will reach
six per cent. For many years France held out
against the proposal to tax incomes, but the vote
in the Chamber of Deputies recently was about
three TO one in favor of the tax
Before the change becomes a law It must pass the
French Senate which is more conservative than the
House

A commission is to be appointed by the Leg
islature Of Massachusetts to consider the ques-
ton of old age pensions. Massachusetts has
always been in the foremost ranks of states that
consider so-called progressive legislation. At
the same time the State of New York is agitat-
savings banks. This is the plan adopted by
Massachusetts several years ago, but sufficient
time has not elapsed for forming an opin-
ion as to whether the scheme will prove
successful. Probably it will be all that its advo-
Gates hoped.

1t looks as if there will be trouble between the
miners and the coal operators again and a strike
is threatened. The railroad companies in the
West are reported to be preparing for a strike
and this is a straw showngl which way the
wind is blowing. The operators must believe
that they have the situation in hand as they are
not disposed to yield to any OF the demands Of
the miners. They will not concede the eight
hour working dav. Eight hours are surely enough
for daily work in the mines. In labor troubles
between miners and operators the public is d-
recty concerned because of the monopolistic
character of the coal mining industry.
