The Rose Mildew

The Rose Mildew is disease caused
by fungus parasite {Sphaeroteca pan
osa Walhr Lev) which lives on the
surface of the plant In most cases
of parasitic fungi. the organism pene-
trates the leaf, stem or fruit. and lives
in the interior of the tissues of those
pr&ts affected. The Rose Mi'dew be-
longs to that class Of parasitic fungi
(1erisiphaeceae) which only lives on
Of the plant. The fungus in this case
The exterior OF the leaf, stem, or fruit
to derive its nourishment, sends in
suckers (haustoria) into the epidermus
of the pnat.
The Miidew causes general deor-
nifty of the leaves and stems. Often
branches are entirely covered by the
fungus, thus giving it white mealy
appearance. The general effect OF the.
ml.dew is 10 cause premature fall
ing of the leaves, a stranging OF the
stems aud flower buds and the final
verdict is that of premature death OF
the whole plant.
The fungus, when viewed microsco-
piCally, is seen to be made up OF white
hyalin hiaments, the tip ends OF which
break up into small fragments and
serve as spores to perpetuate the spec
les. Late in the fall this same fungus
forms pore sscs (peritheciaD These
sacs serve to protect the winter spores
and to carry them over safely for the
next spring. There are few Of our
! garden roses which are IMMUNE to the
mildew The Crimson ramp!er is es-
| recially susceptible 70 it.
In view of the fact that this iungus
grows on the surfate of plants it be-
I the parasite. All We need is to apply
a poison on the surface Of the pant,
which will directly come into contact
with the fungus Flower of Sulphur

Big Sale Here viii Bring A
Large Crowd

An event Of interest to Camas
Prairie people, in view of the big sale
of the Bales-Jones Company on June
Goth, was the successful sale at public
auction Of one thousand acres of farm
lands near Oakesdale last Friday.
This land is located one and one-half
miles northeast Of Thornton, on the
Spokane Il Inland Railway, and a
year ago was offered for sale at $50
per acre, the best offer at that time
being $50.
w. H. Ralph, who will conduct the
Bales-J ones sale, was present at the
Palouse sale, and on the invitation of
Auctioneer Strobel, sold a NUMBER Of
the tracts for the highest prices
brought during the day. A large
number Of land buyers from outside
points were on the grounds, but the
bulk Of the property went to people Of
Oakesdale and Thornton; the only
outsider who secured any large tracts
was S. Y. Evans, Of Calgary.
The following list Of sales will give
an idea of the prices:

Thought it Was Brady

Quite often amusing things occur in
the publication of newspaper and
sometimes it is the editor who enjoys
the laugh. In this connection we re-
call remark made last week after
the issue of the Free Press was in the
hands of the readers. A picture of
of Ralph, the Nez Perce auctioneer,
who has charge of the Bales-Jones sale,
appeared on the first page of that is
sue and now it seems several people
thought it was picture of Gov.
Brady and accused the Free Press of
supporting Honest jim There is
an amusing side to this but it is very
doubtful if Ralph will enjoy smile
when he hears of it.

Union Let Contracts

At the meeting of the Grangeville
local of the Farmers Union, held in
this city Saturday, a large attendance
was present. This was the date set
for the letting of the contracts for the
sacks and twine to be used by the
Union for the coming season and as
the Grangeville local has large mem.
bership among the heavy grain grow
ers on the Prairie and as it is a large
consumer of twine and sacks the con.
tracts were of much Importance.
j. =. jackson, the local blacksmith
and machinist, was awarded the con.
tract for q full car Of twine and to the
Bemis Bag Co., Of Seattle went the or
der tor sacks.
Just what the prices paid were We
are unable to state as it is a rule with
the Uniop that matters o. this sort
not be made public.
In the selection of a delegate to the
Warehousemen's Convention, which is

Ball Game Last Sunday

In one of the best games ever seen
in north Idaho the local baseball team
was beaten by the Reubens bunch at
that town Sunday. The score was
2 to but is hardly indicative of the
relative strength of the two teams.
The Reubens aggregation was made
up of players from Cottonwood, Forest
Clifford and Reubens and was surely
strong lineup. Fred Lange was in
the box and although his work was
not up to his usual standard, the field
ing of his teamates was very good.
This support, coupled with some hard
luck hitting by the locals, contributed
to the Grangeville boys close defeat.
The local bunch is the fastest ever
organized here and will doubtless win
large patronage Of games played this
summer.
Carr, the Grangeville pitcher,
struck out fifteen Of the heavy batters
of the Reubens team and only two
safe hits were made off his delivery.
Lange struck out only fve Carr is
an exceptionally good pitcher and
won a home with the members of the
team and the Grangeville fans by the
mastery manner in which he handled
the game. He is fine batter, runs
bases we'll and is a big boost to the
local team. Jarvis played a good
game, but had bad luck with his
throws. Abrahamson, at first base,
did good work all along and the efforts
Of the other players were all timely
and productive.
The lineup and score by innings was

VIII Play Sunday

Reubens and Grangeville will play a
return game at the local grounds next
Sunday. The game is bound to be a
fast one and the fan who passes it up
for any other diversion will sure have
cause for regrets. The Reubens team
will come prepared to win the game if
such is at all possible and the locals
are determined to even up for last
Sundays game. The management Of
the Grangeville team has arranged
for the local band to provide music for
the occasion and it is expected that an
exceedingly large crowd will be out to
cheer the home boys to victory.
