SAN JOSE sCALE.

The writer was called to visit a
very fine fruit orchard a short time
ago, one that had been well sprayed,
but not for scale, and upon number
OF Duchess apples we found the trees
and fruit literally covered with scale.
AS the owner had never seen the scale
he was badly frightened and wanted
to cut out the trees and burn them
for the protection OF the balance OF
the orchard. We advised against 1t
and had him get a barrel of concen-
trated solution of lime and sulphur
and dilute one to forty and apply,
which he did with the result that he
has destroyed the scale, but to make
the assurance doubly sure he is now
giving the infested trees and those
adjoining another spraying, and pro-
poses when the leaves fall to give a
third spraying which will undoubted-
ly entirely destroy the pests. Cut.
ting the infested trees out is costly
and useless policy; treatment is the
only way to control orchard diseases
and pests ant the lime sulphur solu-
lions are the best all around spraying
compounds to use.-National Fruit
Grower.

What is believed 10 be the smallest
store in the world was opened for
business recently at Front street and
Bigelow court, Worcester 1t consists
OF two shelves, fourteen inches long,
attached to the building owned by J..
Lewis Ellsworth, secretary of the
State Board Of Agriculture, and the
space given up to the display OF q
few handouts of fruit and peanuts
contains $50 square inches.
For more than q quarter Of a CEN
tury the corner was the site Of a news
and peanut stand, but when the city
extended Bigelow court from Front
street to Mechanic street, 1t was seen
that the stand encroached on city
land. It was demolished to allow the
street to be extended and the new
line goes to within fourteen inches OF
the Ellsworth building.
Louis Oriente has rented these few
inches from Mr.. Ellsworth and start
bd to do business, keeping

about the size Of a dog house in the
rear OF the Ellsworth building. When
Mr. Oriente makes a sale he has to

MODEL GARDEN vILLAGEs.

Germany has started to make gar

acquired large plot Of land on the
northern outskirts of the city for the
construction, under the name of Fro

This city will be built in a pictur-

will haYe its own railway station, and
will be laid out regardless of cost as
regards external adornment.
From all parts of Germany reports
show that the idea has taken a firm

insisted upon being the abandonment

ELECTRICITY KILLS BoRERs.


Farm Journal is authority for the
statement that a New Jersey orchard
list has found an effective way OF de-
stroying peach-tree borers with cleo
tricity. Whether any other variety
than Jersey lightning" would prove
effective is not stated.
The story Of the Jersey man is as
follows:
Mr. Palmer noted that lightning
which had followed rift or seam in
tree had destroyed innumerable
borers, and this tree at once showed
thrifty growth. His plum trees were
badly infested with borers. He has
a household medical battery in his
home, and decided to follow natures
example on his plum trees and watch
the effect After heavy rair he cut
on a branch to give a clean section
full Of sap. He applied the battery,
placing one terminal at the end of the
cutoff branch and the other at the
base of the tree, and turned on the
current. Investigation showed, tits
claimed, that he had killed every
borer with which the tree was in.
