WOMAN GIVES
SCAMP BEATING

Last evening an unknown ruffian
surely got his when he roughly ac-
costed the wife of well known bust
ness man of this city while she was
on her way home. The fellow grab
bed the woman by the shoulder and
made an insulting proposal to her
whereupon she struck him across the
face with a package which she was
carrying.
Undismayed the fellow picked up a
stick and approached the woman in
a threatening manner. Nothing
daunted she seized a board and dealt
her assailant several good blows on
the head and shins. This proved suf-
ficient and he made his escape.
The police will be set on the mis-
creaant's trail, and the husband de-
clares he will keep an eye out also
for the scamp. The name of the lady
is withheld from publication because

SHOULD SPRAY
FOR SECOND
BROOD MOTHS

E. P. Taylor, County Horticulturist.l
There are many orchardists who
find at this date too high a percent
age of wormy apples TO risk dispens-
ing with the later cooling moth
sprays. There are some orchards
which have been so well protected
against worms by the three well di-
rected early sprays that more than
three sprays will be unnecessary but
the severity of the insect this hot.
dry season will make second brood
spraying very profitable and some
times absolutely necessary.
There are two important periods
from now on when late sprays can be
applied to good advantage. These
times are first when the first of the
fecond brood eggs commence to hatch,
and second, just before the maximum
number of these eggs are Matching
From observations made upon the
insect this season these two coming
sprays should be applied at approx
mately two weeks, not to exceed three
weeks at the latest, apart.
The dates for applying this first
late spray for different parts of the
valley this season will be about as
follows: Spraying should begin in
the Palisade district by Wednesday.
June 20, and the apple and pear or
chards of that section should be COM
pleted not later than on Saturday.
July > For the Grand Junction dis
trict spraying should fall during the
first week in July, the warmer and
most advanced sections completing
the work before July and the others
at least Immediately thereafter. The
Fruita territory should commence at
least by July 18th, completing as soon
thereafter as can be done.
For most fruit growers the spray
ing just suggested will make the
fourth of the season. The fight spray
where il is given. should follow the
above dates about two weeks. These
dates are given based upon observa-
tions made upon developing insects
taken from orchards in all portions of
the valley. In orchards where the
first brood worms have not been CON
trolled fruit growers should keep the
surface of apples and pears covered
with arsenate of lead spray during
July and early August for it is then
that second brood worms are entering
the fruit in great numbers.

Carbonate, Colo, June 2S.-Drag-
ged to death by a frightened horse
was the fate of 14-year-old Johnny
Sievers, son of Mr.. and Mrs. George
Sievers, one of the leading ranchers
of the Roaring Fork valley shortly af-
ter noon yesterday.
According to reports received here.
young Sievers had just left his home
after eating. his lunch. He was
mounted on one of the best horses on
the ranch and started on trip over
the ranch. Soon after leaving his
home, his horse is thought to have
become frightened and in the mixup
the boy was either thrown or fell
from the saddle, his foot catching in
the stirrup. The animal ran for some
distance with the boy. The lads
head crushed by coming in contact
with the horse and his back was
broken.
DR.. Pruett of this city was called
but death had claimed the boy before
his arrival No one saw the accident
and the real facts as to how the acct
dent happened will probably never be
known. Passersby found the boy
where he lay after his body had been
battered and left almost lifeless by
the frightened animal.

She also declared that her husband did
not give her enough to eat and that he
refused to give her any money to buy
clothes.
DR.. Rubino said that when he mar
ried Mrs. Rubino a tentative agreement
was made that she should contribute
something toward the support of her
five children. He was perfectly willing
to support his own. he said, but it
seemed that she, with an income from
the rent of her house, should help sup
port the combined family.
Mrs. Rubino, indignant, said that she
didn't marry the doctor with the iu-
tention OF supporting her own chill
dren. Several neighbors of the Rubina
family, called to the stand by James
A. Harmon, attorney for DR.. Rubino,
said they had never heard any quarrels
between the couple and that they
seemed to live happily together.
A week ago proceedings were started
for absolute divorce and custody of
the latest child by Mrs. Rubino in the
