A PLEA FOR sovs AND GIRLS.

Many of the saddest and most heart rending of life's tragedies might be averted were parents 10 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 ori- gin and the dangers incident to igno- rance of the vital facts. Find out about these things boys and girls will-f not from pure and reliable then from vul- gar and uDtrustworthy sources. Per haps the victim is fair young girl. whose confidence has been betrayed and whose bright and happy life is blasted at Its threshold. or maybe II is stalwart son. who finds out too late through agoniZing experience that he is virtual imbeeile or Is tainted for life with some loathsome disease which may mean early death. but Tn any event must always debar him from those joys which center in hap py home of his own and 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 srupidly ignored. As a people we are devoting too much time and energy to 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 their problems. on whom more than all oth- CT things or interests the future wei fare of the country depends. The boys and girls are worth while. It is time they were given square deal.

The easiest and most effective prun- ing work that can be done In an or chard is with the thumb and finger or a small knife during the first year fol lowing the setting of the young trees. This should include the shipping on of all shoots but the five or six which will later make the framework of the tree. and If this elimination work is done early in the growing season the remaining branches will be just so much more vigorous. If one has the time at his disposal this work can be augmented by shipping off the tips of the young branches fin August. This will tend to season the wood as well as increase the diameter of the branches.

PEAR BLIGHT.

X careful study of the pest coupled with numer ous experiments has shown the only effective method of combating the blight 10 be the cutting out of affected shoots and limbs below the point of infection. the pruning instrument saw or shears. being sferilized after each cutting by dipping in kerosene. An other means serving to lessen the se- yerity 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 af blossom time. Pear orchards In sec lions where the blight Is prevalent should be inspected frequently and DO time 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 rapidify. often passing from twig to trunk in the course of few hours-
