County club had already announced it's
banquet for March IL, and that two
banquets were too many. John j.

lates growth in spring, which is fav-
orable to blight.
Cultivating and fertilizing with nj
trogenous fertilizers after trees have
come into bearing produces condi-
tons favorable to blight, therefore
sodding and withholding nitrogen
fertilizers is to be recommended as
preventive measure from a farm
orchard standpoint.
Plant on well drained soil, but re-
member that all rolling soil is not
necessarily well drained.
These things should be done in
dealing with pear blight:
!. Cut off and burn all affected

your trees and when detected, de-
stroy them.
3. Prevent soft, succulent growth
4. Prune so as to form good
frame on your tree and keep spurs,

limbs and trunk.
S. DO not cultivate and fertilize
bearing trees excessively.
s. Select resistant varieties.

dosing your tree with calomel.

Editorial Answer: Lice which in
fest cattle come only from other lice.
Cattle kept in filthy stables or with
out shelter, that are from these
causes reduced in condition, are prob
ably more subject to lice, or rather
the lice attack them more freely;
but these conditions alone will not
cause lice. Lice come from lice, just
as cattle come from cattle.
The best means of removing lice
from cattle is to wet them all over
with solution of some one OF the
many coal tar disinfectants on the
market, such as Zenoleum, Kreso,
etc. One part of the disinfectant to
80 or 40 parts of water should be
used, or such strength as the manu-
facturers advise. A second appli-
cation should be made about a week
or ten days after the first to COM
plete the job.
The stables or houses where the
stock is kept must also be cleaned
and disinfected. and preferably
whitewashed, IL the complete destruc-
ton OF the lice Is expected.

affects blossom twigs. foliage twigs.
water sprouts. suckers, limbs and
fruits.
The first marked appearance OF
blight is during and soon after bios
soming time. 1t Is brought to the tree
by insects seeking nectar from the
blossoms and is transferred by them
from blossom to blossom and from
tree to tree. Warm, moist condi-
tons are most favorable to its devel-
opment. The effect Is that the foli
age and flowers turn brown and the
disease continues down the twig. Of
ten the injury of blight Is mistaken
for that of frost. as the damage in
both instances looks very much alike.
As soon as discovered, the affected
portion. and even to inches be-
cut. the knife or saw or whatever Is
used should be disinfected. Dissolve
one tablet of corrosive sublimate In
pint of water. A sponge saturated
with this solution rubbed over the
knife will disinfect II. Again, IL Is
well to rub the sponge over the cut
surface for fear that the knife was
not thoroughly disinfected at the
time the cut was made. A s per
cent solution OF carbolic acid is an
other good disinfectant.
DO sure and burn all affected parts
which have been cut of and DO care
full with the disinfcctants after you
have finished with them. as they are
poisonous.
The bacteria causing this disease
affect the cambium layer and inner
bark. Tho bark becomes brown and
sunken and IL is fairly easy to deter
mine the affected area. Tho bacteria
winter over in cankers on the limbs.
During tho fall and winter these
cankcrs are more easily detected and
should be cut OFF below the affected
part AZ soon as detected. This is APP
parontly the main source of new in
feeiions for tho next year.
Soft. succulent growth Is more sus-
ceptible TO blight. therefore anything
that tends to prevent this growth
viii also tend TO prevent blight.
