market | want to work these trees

apple. Can this be done successfully,
or will the apple scion in time out
grow the stock, OIL will the stock al
ways retard the growth of the scion?
AS they now appear having been plant
ed among the apple trees they are
much smaller than the surrounding
trees although thrifty in themselves.
Or would 1t be better to graft upon
these trees some better variety of the
c1ab-apple'"
The crab-apple has not proved to be
a good stock upon which to graft the
apple. The CRAFTS will grow but the
union is not good one. Nurserymen
have often tried to use the American
crab, of which there are several
species, upon which to graft the com,
mon apple but the results we're so
unsatisfactory that all attempts in
that direction have been abandoned.
The same failure has been met in try
ing to graft the apple (pyrus malus)
upon the oriental crab (pyrus bac-
cata). My opinion is that friend Lei
ser would better graft those crab apple
trees to some improved crab-apple
like the Transcendent, the General
Grant or the Hyslop or dig out the
trees. l have not had much experience
in this line but from what | have
seen coupled with my experience I
would do this if they we're my trees.
Only very closely related species can
be used in grating. The pear, the

question, and our inspectors agree
with us. There are growers who lay
the short peach crop CT 1908 in part at
least to bud damage by the green
aphis. In trying to reach the aph1s
eggs this year I am going to spray not
only my trees, but the fence posts and
ditch banks. The aphis is always
worst among the outside rows, indi-
eating that the eggs pass the winter
outside the orchard proper.
| want to thank Mr.. Richardson for
calling my attention to this matter
and as he has corrected me in this
fine spirit I want to do as much for
him. The aphis that works on the
peach trees and plum trees is not the
green aphis. This is very common
mistake and perhaps no harm comes
from confounding the green aphis
(aphis mali) and the peach aphis
(mizus Persica). Some years ago |
discovered that very PERSISTENT aph-
is was working on some plum tteeS
near my house on my ranch near Zll-
lab. This aphis is not so green as the
apple aphls. | found the same or a

hawthorn, the ounce and the COM
mon apple all belong to the same gen
us and the word pyrus is used to de-
s1gnate that, but we cannot use just
any of the pyrus family in grating.
The crab-apple and the common apple
are more closely related than some of
the other members of the pyrus fam
lily and will therefore hybridize which
is not true Of the pear and the apple.
For this reason it would seem theo-
retically that the crab-apple and the
common apple might be used success
fully In grating but experience is
against the theory and theories must
give way to experience il the latter
is gained by proper tests.
SUPPLY OF APPLES IN STORAGE
The International Apple Shippers
Association has recently sent out a
statement as to the number of barrels
of apples in cold storage and common
storage in January 1910 as compared
with those in storage in 1909, from
which it appears that there are in the
United States and Canada 81, 100
more barrels IN storage now than
year ago. Just how reliable this
statement is ] do not know. This
same association of shippers is in the
habit of making exaggerated statements
of the apple crop early in the season
which are greatly reduced when the
crop is gathered. This is done to
make the growers believe that they
must expect small prices for their
fruit. The we'll informed growers

Minus Persica. I suppose that it takes
the last part of it's name from the bo
tanical name for the peach which is
prunus Persica. Let me make a few
quotations from my work on entomol-
ogy: "Aphls, plural aphides, a
genius of insects belonging to the
order Hemiptera, type of a family
called Aphididae. They are small in
sects, often called plant lice, which
suck the juices of plants or trees
when they thus injure and sometimes
destroy. Different species, of which
there are several hundred, prey on
different portions of the plant or tree.
The Aphis mali attacks the leaves and
young twigs of the apple. Other
species cherry, peach ard other fruit
trees. A species which prevs on the
plum migrates to hop plants and often
does great damage. The greater num-
Der of them never have wings; it is
in the autumn that perfect winged IN
sects generally appear. Flom the
pairings of these, result eggs which
produce female aphides in the follow
ing spring, and successive generations
of wingless aphides are produced in a
vivaparcea manner without impreg-
nation throughout the summer after
which winged aphides again appear.
Their increase is restrained not only
by birds, but by other insects which
feed on them. A family of cOleOpter
Gus insects, to which the genus Coo
cinelia or Lady bird belongs, has re-
ceived upon this account the name of
aphi 1iphagi, or aphis eaters. There
are also minute hymenOpterOus insects
which destroy them in great numbers
by depositing their eggs in them; the
larva feeds on the living aphis. out
of which 1T at last eats its way, leav-
ing a mere desiccated skin. -
From these extracts we may learn
that the green aphis and the peach
aphis are not identical. From the fact
that most of the aphides are wingless
in the spring and summer and that no
pear in the fall, will in my judgment
satisfactorily account for the state
ment that the peach aphis is more
numerous on the outside rows. The
winged aphides fly about good deal
from one orchard to another and lay
more eggs on the outside rows. [ do
not believe that friend Richardson can
find any eggs on the fence posts or
the banks of the bitches. Remember
that nearly all aphides winter over in
the egg stage, and if we can destroy
the eggs or render them non fertile by
spraying with the lime sulphur wash
we can greatly curtail their ravages
the following summer. Then let US
not forget that the Lady birds are our
kind friends and should never be de-
stroyed. The reason that insects of
this kind are more numerous one year
than another is owing to the fact that
their enemies are more numerous
some years than others. The fruit
grower owes a great deal to the benef-
cial insects which prey upon those
that injure our trees or our fruits.
We must Learn to know ouI friends.
Not all insects are pernicious nor are
all bacteria injurious to man but many
of them are highly beneficial.

Strong Hope Of Curing Cancer

An ALBANY. New York, dispatch of
18th says:
A strong hops of curing cancer. or ut
least greatly arleliVrating the suffering
of cancer patients by means of innocnla-
ton is held out in the report of Henry
Gaylord, director of the cacuer labora-
tory of the state department of health

year III the innoculation of various
animals, mainly rats. with the cancer
virus.

where the assistance of the animal. is
not sufficiently awakened by one IN

"Aswe strongly urged thellegistatnr e

when we should begin the experimental

necessary that number of patients

Funds sufficient to enable us to MAINTAIN
ten patients is the least amount that

WHY: SHOULD'VE
TRUST TAFTi''

Nebraska's senator Burkett, who is
candidate for reelection, is having
quite time with his constituency on
account of his failure to support the
common people and his open and un-
qualified support of Taft Cannon Aid
rich and the crowd that is for the few
rs against the many. The other night
Burkett made a speech in Washington
to'the Nebraska Republican club and
incidentally his whole plea was to
trust Taft" He claimed this was the
panacea for all of the country's ills and
would cure them all
Trust Taft"-and don't worry. or
fret, or get mad. or think for yourself;
inst trust Taft" 1t is the voice of
the slugSard. the coward. the trimmer.
To the distracted hosts of Republi-
canism it comes from many quarters.
But it comes lOudest and most earnestly
from just two sources-from those who
want to hold the sinking ship together
till they can reach shore just once more,
like Burkett, and from those who have
placed their entire and unquestioning
trust in Taft to do all he can to beat
down insurgency and hold the PROV of
old ship pointing directly toward the
north star of tOryism.
Crust Taft" says Aldrich. trust
Taft" says Cannon, trust Taft" says
Ballinger. trust Taft" say the trusts.
and trust Taft" echoes Burkett.
But why should the plain people trust
Taft? Why should honest republicans
trust him?
They did trust Taft" and he helped
make Cannon speaker.
They did trust Taft" and he helped
fasten the Cannon rules anew Oh the
house.
They did trust Taft" and he hailed
Aldrich as 1.-The leader OF the senate"
They did trust Taft" and he de.
clired for the central bank of issue.
They did trust Taft" and he helped
defeat the income tax.
They did trust Taft" and he signed
the Aldrich tariff act, and declared if
the best tariff law ever passed"
They did trust Taft" and he put
Ballinger, the crony and attorney of
the land thieves, in charge of the lands
the thieves were plotting to steal.
They did trust Taft" and he dis
charged CLAWS and Pinchot, who were
honestly trying to protect the public
do main against powerful conspirators.
They did trust Taft" and he put
Knox and Nagel and Wickersham and
Dickinson in his cabinet--trust LAWYERS
all of them.
They did trust Taft" and he an.
pointed Lurton to the supreme bench.
They did trust Taft, and now he is
trying to fasten a federal Incorporation
law on their backs for a saddle on
which private monopoly can ride them
to death.
They did trust Taft" and now he is
getting ready to burden them with a
shipping subsidy.
T. How much longer must they trust
lTaft9" &.

tinue to trust TAFT" will they be able
to pay the heavy price that comes as a
penalty for trtst ing TaftR

people to begin trusting their own
