WASHES FOR SCALE INSECTS
United States Department of Agricul-
ture Gives an Effective Remedy
for Pest.

A report Of the United States de-
partment of agriculture says: Any
good soap is effective in destroying
soft-bodied insects, such as plant lice
and young or soft-bodied larvae. AS
winter washes, in very strong solu-
ton, they furnish one of the safest
and most effective means against
scale insects. The soaps made of fish
oil, and sold under the name of whale
oil soaps, are often especially val
liable, but variable in composition and
merits. A soap made with caustic
potash rather than with caustic soda,
as is commonly the case, and not con-
tanning more than 80 per cent. of wa
ter should be demanded, the potash
soap yielding liquid in dilution more
readily sprayed and more effective
against insects. The soda soap washes
are apt to be gelatinous when cold,
and difficult or impossible to spray,
except when kept at very high tenn
perature. For plant lice and delicate
larvae, such as the pear slug, a
strength obtained by dissolving half a
pound of soap in a gallon of water is
sufficient. Soft soap will answer as
well as hard, but at least double the
quantity should be taken.

starts quicker and progresses more
rapidly when this precaution Is OBJ
served than when a rough and jagged
surface is left. It frequently happens
that, in order to obtain the best re-
suits in removing large branches, two
cuts should be made-that is, the
branch should be sawed off eighteen
inches or two feet above the point
of it's origin in order to prevent split
ting down and tearing off a consider
able portion of bark. After the weight
Of the branch has been lessened by
cutting away the main part, second
cut can be made and the stub held in
position until the cut iG completed,
thus preventing the splitting down
and tearing of the bark, Gas shown in
accompanying illustration) which is
likely to result from the careless re-
moval of large branches. The evil re-
suits of splitting can frequently be
overcome by cutting first on the un-
der side of the limb and then upon
the upper side, so that the breaking
of the tissue occurs near the middle
Of the wound instead of at one side
When this Is the case, tearing and
splitting seldom occur.

LIFE Of A SEA DIVER
Captain Stone Has Had Some

Boston.-After 81 years spent in WIS.,

tom Of the sea, during which long Pc
riod of time he has fathomed many
secrets of the deep, Capt. John Stone
Of Boston is still, at the ripe old age

He is not only the dean of all the

oldest active diver in the United
States. He says that he knows of no
man Of his years in the country who
is in active work as diver
Captain Stone has done about
everything that diver is called upon
to perform under water, but his work
has been largely in the line of wreck
ing operations and in searching for
the bodies of drowned people. He has
worked not only on the oceans bed
from Labrador to South Carolina, but
in fresh water as well, beneath lakes
and rivers and large reservoirs in diff
ferent parts Of the country.

HORTICULTURAL NOTES.

Slug attacks pear and cherry. Use
arsenate of lead when the insects ap-
pear.
II spraying Is done late and the
fruit has formed, never use paris
green in the spray.
CAS- the twig is bent, so is the tree
inclined" While the tree is young
give 1t the shape desired
Young apple trees may be protected
against the ravages of destructive an
nual pests by wire netting.
Consul General E. L. Harris says
there were 100000 camel loads of figs
raised in Smyrna this last season.
When trees commence to bear use
fertilizer rich in potash; wood ashes
can be used to advantage at that time.
Cultivate around your trees with q
hoe several times during the year and
keep a mulch of grass over the Guilt
waited space.
White hellebore Is a substitute for
paris green. It may be applied to the
bushes dry, mixed with three times
lCs weight or hour.
Cultivate cotton, peas and red clover
In your young orchard. This will bene-
fit the trees and at the same time give
you an income.
The texture of the orchard soil, no
matter whether 1t be clay, sand or
humus, may be greatly changed by
correct cultivation.
Peanuts are good to plant in Or
chards. They must be kept absolutely
free from weeds, therefore, you will
have a clean orchard.
After trees are planted cover with
loose soil for mulch. When grow
ing apply stable manure worked into
soil, but do not let it touch the trees.
Don't make the mistake many per-
sons have by planting your pear trees
too close together. Twenty feet is close
enough for pears and peaches-thirty
feet for apples.
Trunk borers attack orchard trees
and others. Dig out the worms with
knife. During the growing season
whitewash trunks with lime-sulphur
containing extra lime.

Spraying Pumps.

Several kind of spray pumps are on

of pump for the ordinary farm orchard
is a strong, compact barrel pump. 1t

and be capable of throwing a good
quantity of water with great force
The working parts should be made of
brass, and if all parts of the pumn
that come in contact with the LIQUID
are of brass its life will be greatly in
creased. Agitator attachments can be
purchased as a part of the pump, or
as separate machines. The attach
ments are very convenient, but are
not necessary; the agitation of the
liquid may be done by hand, with a
board.

memorable wreck of the steamship At
lantic of the White Star line near
Cape Sambro, at the entrance to Hall
fax harbor, on April 1, when several
hundred lives were lost, comparatively
few of the large number of passengers
being saved.
He cannot recall now the exact
number of bodies taken from the
wreck, but it was up n the hundreds.
About 1885 Captain Stone came to
Boston and has lived here ever since.
In the % years that has made this
city his home he has done a great
deal of submarine work at many
points along the Atlantic coast as far
south as South Carolina and through
out New England as well.
Captain Stones life has been filled
with hairbreadth escapes from death,
but the nearest that he ever came to
losing his life under water, he says,
was while working on the wreck of
the steamship Moravian of the Allen
line in the year 1884 off Mud island
in the bay of Fundy, near Yarmouth,
N. S., with four or five other divers
in the dead of winter.
The ship lay in about 20 feet of wa
ter, with the upper deck above the
surface, and on this the air pumps of
the divers were dashed. The two men
tending the lines for Captain Stone
were stationed on a raft constructed
within the ship, about at the level of
the second deck, while he was so feet
below them in the BOBBY hatch work
ing on the cargo.
In some way his air hose became
entangled and was broken short off
from the air pump on the upper deck.
Away below in the black depths of the
water Captain Stone heard a sudden
sharp click within his massive helmet,
similar to the sound made when a
large cap is snapped on gun.
He made leap for the combings
of the BOBBY hatch, so as to pull him
self up, but he failed and fell back
ward in the water with all the weight
Of his heavy diving suit upon him.
His tenders on the raft were in
ignorance Of what had occurred, and
he couldn't send signal to them, be-
cause his signal line had gone up with
the rope used in hosting the cargo
he was sending up. But word was
soon sent to them of the nature Of the
accident and they quickly got to work
Captain Stone had made another eff
fort to catch the combings of the
hatch when he felt himself being
hauled upward by his tenders.
Although fast losing consciousness
through lack of air, he kept his left
arm extended so as to feel for the
stanchions and push himself away
from them in case he struck any, for
he was still in total darkness. But he
was hauled up safely and escaped any
more serious consequences of the adj
venture than swallowing a quantity of
salt water that had found its way into
his helmet while he was struggling for
life.

to arrest a man named f. M. Barnet,
who would probably pass through VIII

ternoon, en- route to New York.
Deputy Sheriff Muller met No.
and made a search for the fugitive,
but was unable to find him on fhe
train. Being unable to complete he
search of No. 10 before it pulled cut,
Deputy Sheriff Rich took the train east
and before reaching Battle Mountain
found his man, whom he brought back
on No. 3 and lodged in the county
Jail.
Sheriff McAuley was notified by
wire, and is expected to reach here
some time tomorrow for the purpose of
taking the prisoner back to Auburn,
where it is alleged he is wanted ON
six charges of forgery.
Barnett is travelling salesman for
the Hoffman Moore cigar company, Of
San Francisco, and is well known in
the california territory he covers. He
expresses willingness to return to
Auburn without the formality of an
extradition.
