Washington, March 7.-Unofficial

The chestnut blight fungous
growth known as the black knot va

tic states unless methods can be adopt

pest. This particular blight spreads
by means OF spores, these being car
rled by birds. by squirrels and some
times by the wind. The spores OF
seeds get a foothold aud develop In the
cambium layer. which is located just
beneath the outer bark So far NO

beaten he would be a cowed man. Ia.
cobson understood that If he could put
his enemy out Of the fight he would
conquer a peace. Both were good
pluck. Turner's lips turned blue, and
he was shivering; Jacobson drew In
long breaths Of oxygen and stood
steady. In a few minutes Turner's
nozzle dropped from his hand. He
stopped TO pick 1t put, but Jacobson
poured a stream in his face, and he
couldn't see It. Presently he got his
hands on It, but the fingers were be-
numbed. and jacobson soon Knocked
It again out of his grasp. He stood the

That was the end Of his persecution

F. D. Lackey and Co, states to-day: The
New York stock market was little reac-
tionary this morning due to some little
profit taking on the reports Of damage to
the wheat crop although no concerted
movement in this direction has developed
and the chances favor a better closing.
"A great many bear tips are out on
Amalgamated Copper, American smelt-
ing and United states steel, in which
stocks a large short interest already ex-
ist and would indicate that a whirl at the
shorts would be most profitable and the
logical outcome.
The Philadelphia market was slightly
lower generally, the traction stocks were
sold to catch stop loss orders. These be-
ing out of the way. Philadelphia Rapid
Transit and Union Traction should be

erally been an abundance Of moisture

PEAR BLIGHT.

In portions of California and Oregon
plant disease experts Of the depart
ment of agriculture have for the past
two or three years been directing a
campaign for the stamping out Of the
pear blight, which in sections Of the
former state has ruined tens of thou
sands Of bearing trees. A careful
study of the pest coupled with numer-
Gus experiments has shown the only
effective method of combating the
blight TO be the cutting out Of affected
shoots and limbs below the point of
infection. the pruning instrument, saw
or shears, being sterilized after each
cutting by dipping in kerosene. An
other means serving to lessen the Sc
verify Of an attack Of blight has been
found to lie in the removal Of all fruit
spurs from the trunk and larger lower
limbs, as the spores of the blight are
transmitted to such spurs by bees at
blossom time. Pear orchards in sec
tons where the blight is prevalent
should be inspected frequently and no
ssme lost in cutting out affected limbs
should the pest put in an appearance.
A delay of a day has often meant the
loss of many trees, as the blight works
with great rapidity, often passing from
twig to trunk IN the course Of q few
hours.

A PLEA FOR BOYS AND GIRLS.
Many of the saddest and most heart
rending Of llfe's tragedies might be
averted were parents to recognize the
responsibility which is surely on their
shoulders of informing their children
in the early years-far better too
early than too late-of the chief facts
in connection with their physical ORR
gin and the dangers incident to igno-
rance of the vital facts. Find out about
these things boys and girls will-if not
from pure and reliable then from vul-
gar and untrustworthy sources. Per
haps the victim is a fair young girl,
whose confidence has been betrayed
and whose bright. and>happy life is
blasted at it's threshold, or maybe It
is a stalwart son, who finds out too
late through agonizing experience that
he is a virtual imbecile or is tainted
for life with some loathsome disease
which may mean early death, but in
any event must always debar him
from those joys which center in a hap
DIV home of his own and a life of whole
someness and usefulness. The teach.
ing of these truths in the home and in
the school is of far more account than
mathematics. history or language, yet
they are almost universally and most
stupidity ignored. AS a people we are
devoting too much time and energy tc
material things-the shop. the office
the farm; too much time to horses and
cattle, to sheep and swine. their breed
ing and their rations-and far too little
thought to the boys and girls and theil
problems, on whom more than all 9th
er things or interests the future wei
fare of the country depends. The boy:
and girls are worth while. 1t is time
they were given a square deal.
