INTERNATIONAL
TRADE OF i. S.

WASHINGTON. June 1O.-Inter-
national commerce, according TO
statistics secured by the department
OF commerce and labor, showed a
marked Improvement In all the prln.
cipal countries of the world for the
year ending In April. 1910.
A report of the bureau just issued
states;
International trade, AS IS well
known, fell off In the perlad follow
Ing the financial depression of 1907 .
and as 4 consequence the import and
export figures of nearly all countries
were smaller In 1908 than In the i'm
mediately preceding years. The In
crease shown by the figures of tho
current year Is therefore In moro
cases. more distinctly a return to
normal conditions than an actual ad-
vance over those which existed prior
10 the financial depression OF 1905
In many cases. however. the fig
ures OF the current year are material
ly larger than ever before and 1t is
probable that the total OF lnterna-
tlonal trade In the calendar year 1910
Will surpass that OF any former year. s.

SPRAYING THE
SHADE TREES

Ogden shade trees have been found
10 be so badly infested with variou
species of insects that the city has
determined to prosecute an active
spraying campaign, in which the own
eiS Oh trees VIII be asked 10 pay only
the actual cost OF the operation.
Ihere Is city ordinance under
! which owners of shade ,roes can be
| eonpelIeu 10 spray them as a preven-
i've against the spread ofS parasites.
but II rs not the intention OF the city
| 10 avail Itself OF the law in any but
extreme cases, where owners absolute
~ refuse TO comply with the regula.
tlons
The present plan. az outlined by
superintendent Van der Schult of the
city park board, Is to invite citizens
to leave their addres, with the city
recorder. together with the number
OF trees which they wish sprayed
with this Information at hand. the
board can formulate a schedule by
which the spraying can be done sys-
tematically and at q minimum Of time
and expense
In speaking of the proposed action
OF the city officials. Superintendent
Van der Schut said.
Never before In the history of Og-
den have shade trees been so infested
as they are at the present time. |
have made Il close inspection recently
not only of the trees along the streets
but In the yards Of private homes, and
everywhere the most lamentable CON
ditions seem TO prevail.
The matter was laid before the
park board. and after some discussion
II was decided that TO ask citizens to
spray their own trees. which would In.
yolye either the purchase OF a sprayer
or the employment Of some one max
Ing business of that line for profit.
would be something of hardship and
entail unnecessary expense.
II was therefore suggested that the
city purchase spraying outfit of It's
own and proceed with the work,
charging the property owners only
the actual expense Tho matter was
presented In proper form to the city
council, and the reauisltion for a $500
outflt was granted.
The work Will be started Monday
and everyone who has shade trees
should ascertain If they are infested
and then telephone TO the city re-
corder. and leave their name, address
and the number of trees which need
attention
The trees most affected arc the
elms. The green and white ash and
naples arc also badly IN need of at
tention. The parasites include the
Mealy bug. green, black and woody
aphls and caterpillars. To spray these
trees with black leaf solution Will cost
anywhere from 25 cents to so cents. OF
moro. according TO the size of the tree
and the extent of the Infection. With
the cost of the material must be fig
ured tho expense Of hiring three eX-
ira men and a team for the work
Nothing but the actual cost however.
will be charged, so | am confident
that there will be no hesitation on the
part of anyone to comply with tho
ordinances and send In their applica-
tions at once"
The cause OF so many trees being
Infested at this time Is said TO be the
recent draught Winter spraying with
lime, salt and sulphur, when the trees
are bare of foliage. IL thought TO be
the most effective method Of proyid-
ing against a repetition of the infec-
ton.

Wickersham today. and 1t was an
nounced tonight that there is a posi-
biIity OF final agreement on Monday
OF Tuesday. No member of the con-

Mr.. Mann has not entirely aban-

the fact that the house had adopted
the physical valuation amendment by
q vote of nearly two to one. President

the house amendments concerning

the time allotted by the senate bill
to the Interstate Commerce commits
sion for the investigation for the In
crease of rates be reduced from ten TO
six months, and that the section re-
gardiug rate increases be made ef-
fectiye at once instead of after sixty
days.
All the members of the conference
committee favor the latter sugges-
ton because OF It's application to no

many proposed advances.
