WHAT IS THE ANSWER

Just before the battle, brother.
Believe not all the things you hear:
For pugilistic persons proper
Are human beings strange and queer.
JEFF viii likely kill Jack Johnson.
If Jack neglects Jeffs swings to duck;
And Jack viii chop JEFF to Hamburger
If Jack plays In his usual luck
On. JEFF will surely beat Jack Johnson.
And Jack viii surely break Jeff's jaw.
Just before the battle, brother,
1t looks as If twill be a draw.
Just before the battle. brother,
They both are riding to a fall;
Because, since both of them must win 1t.
IT'S plain no enc cen lose at all
JEFF will end II in minute.
'T'n waste no time on him." sezee.
''All is over but the shouting
Says Jack. For Jeffries. g."
Oh. wish that could think it
That in their programme there's no fawi
Would that both might win knockout,
And then 'twould be righteous draw!

recommended. By very careful watch
ing, Prof. Clark found that these
larvae cut their way out about the
time the color began to show in the
peach buds. By spraying with the
lime sulphur at that time they are
nearly all killed.
l wish to say before leaving this
matter, that we nave never been dam
aged enough by the peach twig borer
to pay us to spray just at the time re-
commended by Profs. Woodwork and
Clark. We have never lost more than
one per cent by the insect and it
would cost us good deal more than
the few damaged peaches would be
worth to spray for this insect at the
time it can be killed. If it gets worse
in our orchards we will meet it in the
manner above set forth. Ny judgment
is that it will never do US enough
harm to justify us in fighting 1t. 1t
may prove more destructive in the
Wenatchee valley than it has in the
Yakima valley but | do not believe
that it will.

siderably alarmed about it. | at once
set about to learn all | could about it's
ravages and how to combat this in
sect. In California it nearly ruined
the peach business in certain sections.
From IS to 80 per cent of the peaches
in those sections were unfit to ship
because they we're wormy. The RENE
dies that had been recommended were
practically failures. The matter was
reported to the California Experiment
Station. Prof. Woodwork, the ento
mologist in charge there and his valu
able assistant Prof. Clark, took this
matter up in a most efficient manner
and the result was that by the timely
use of the lime-sulphur wash the loss
was cut down to one or two per cent.
1t was my good fortune to meet both
these able men and talk with them
about this matter and to hear them
lecture on the subject. The insect
winters over in the larval state in the
forks of young peach tree limbs. 1t
is so snug in its winter quarters that
it cannot be reached by kerosene

great force. See that those open ends
are filled with the liquid. The reason
for this is that from 80 to 90 per cent
of all of the first brood of worms

and will begin to eat and will be

ouIturists claim that if this first

isfaotion. | want to be converted to
the theory of Zone spraying enough"
but can't quite get the blessing. l
we'll remember the lines eff at first
you don't succeed, try, Try again. y
There is no question, however that
this first spraying is the most efficient
but am not ready to say that 1T is
sufficient.
Before we pass this point | want to
say word about the material to be
used in fighting the codling moth. A
few years ago Paris Green properly
mixed with lime and diluted with
water was the one material Ia general
use. Sometimes London Purple was
used but it varies so much in strength
that it was unreliable. Then we used
arsenate of soda with lime and water.
One objection to all these sprays was
the fact that oftentimes after very
careful use we would burn the foliage
to some extent. Then arsenate of lead
came onto the stage and now is almost
universally used. This is the arsenate
of soda combined with the acetate of
lead. 1t remains in suspension better
than any other preparation of Arsenic
and will not burn foliage. No lime
has to be added to this compound.
1t has a very white appearance and
shows on the leaves and fruit without
the addition of lime.
Going back to the material used in
spraying for tbs San Jose scale. | have
been asked the question if the lime
sulphur wash prepared by the Chas.

this firm and have no hesitancy in

repeatedly said that the small apple
growers with not more than ten to fif-
teen acres of apple orchard would bet
ter buy some good form of the lime
sulphur wash such as that prepared
by the Lilly Co. than to try to make
their own wash. We prepared some
years ago to make our own sulphide
of lime and while we would not claim
that it is better than Lilly's prepare
ton we know that is not only an eff
cient remedy but sufficient one.
Those who have small orchards some
times only few trees would better
buy this material than TO fix up the
proper tanks to make their own.

Barcelona, July 23.-Antonio Maura,
leader of the conservative party, who,
as premier, put down the Barcelona
riots and brought about the execution
of DR.. Francisco Ferrera. a year ago,
owes his escape from death, perhaps,
to the courage of his youthful girl
cousin, who threw herself upon the as

1t was shortly before last midnight
that the former prime minister stepped
from a train at the Francia station
where he arrived from Madrid en-
route to Palma. At his side was his
cousin. Suddenly, from the crowd, the
man, Manuel Posa, fired three shots.
The first bullet pierced Senior Maura's
arm and the second found lodgment in
his leg. AS Posa fired again the
woman sprang upon him. spelling his
aim, and the bullet went wide.
Posa, who is but Is years of age,

shoot Maura. but desired to make a
demonstration against him. The

would be run to Brockville. Subse-

Brockvflle stating that the mayor had
called out company of the local mill

The qualification which Vice President
