SPRAY MIXTURE CONTROLS
BLACK ROT OF GRAPE
Demonstrations Practically
Eliminate Disease Average Year
Some Suggestions.
Oc)e0000
Successive Stages of Black Rot Lessons.

Extensive experiments give cor lu-
sive evidence that the black rot of
the grape can be controlled CONNER
cially by thorough spraying with mix
lures properly made and applied.
1t has not been demonstrated that
spraying will control the rot in ex-
ceptionally wet seasons. but it will
practically eliminate the rot in an
average year. Consequently, it Is
strongly recommended that the grow
er make special effort to eliminate
the disease every season. There will
probably never come a time when
spraying will not be necessary, but
by this eliminating method the grower
may be able materially to reduce the
number of applications.
The following suggestions are re-
commended by the New York expert
ment station as aids in controlling the
rot.
Plow as early as practicable, ma
king special effort to turn under all
rotten clusters and leaves.
Keep all weeds and grass down.
Instruct workmen to gather any
mummies left on the arms and to
clean up the brush we'll
Do not allow basal sprouts to
spread over the ground.
Keep the vines off the ground.

Couldn't Fool the Farmer.

During some maneuverS of the EMS
lish cavalry division an agriculturist
was very angry to find group of Off
GERS calmly sitting upon a half-cut
stack of hay that he was carting away
for chatf cutting purposes. He ex-
pressed his indignation at the sight,
and ordered them off his land in Ian
guage that was distinctly more vigor-
Gus than polite
One of the officers tried to argue
with him, and pointed out that one
of those present happened to be Prince
Arthur of Connaught and nephew OF
the king. The old farmer was frankly
incredulous, and persisted in his or
ders.
Prince or no prince" he declared,
"off he goes from my stack! Judging
from the look of you, the next thing
you will do with my stack will be to
eat it,"
Prince Arthur hugely enjoyed the
situation, and eventually led the re-
treat that took place. 1t was in vain
for the officers to offer the irate farm
er any monetary compensation.
III prince the lot of you if find
you here again. BE off and get some
thing useful done-you are paid
enough for it," was the parting shot
as the officers rode away.

Spray thoroughly. The time of ap-
plication will depend on the weather.
Contrary to common belief, the spray
should be applied before rather than
after rain. In general, the time of
applications will be as follows:
First, with Bordeaux mixture $3.50,
at the time when the second or third
leaf is showing.
Second, with the same mixture be-
fore the blossoms OPEN
Third, with the same mixture soon
after blossoms have fallen.
About two more applications will be
necessary and should be made at In
tervals of ten days to two weeks.
The spray should be applied at a
pressure of at least 100 pounds. 1t is
better to use trailers for all the ap-

are worth all they cost, and while
possibly such paintings and home
adjoining may not directly bring in
an income in dollars, let us not for
get that life means more than money,
and let us not measure our happiness
by the dollars and the acres that we
are able to accumulate.
A home that is beautiful externally
is most likely to be the same internal
ly, and the moral influence going out
from such a home elevates and in
spires humanity to higher and holier
living.

Cement Protects the Spring.

Concrete is displacing the barrel as
protection for springs on the farm.
1t never rots, 1t protects the spring,
and keeps the water free from surface
impurities.
A young farmer recently invented
an ingenious device for making con-
crete water barrels. He took two
wooden barrels of different sizes,
knocked the heads out of both, put
the smaller inside the larger, and
filled the space between them with
concrete, and concrete barrel was
the result.

WATERING Plants,

Wrong Watering-All plants like TO
have their leaves sprinkled, but to
sprinkle the soil about them as a
means of giving the roots a drink
does very little good, and a thorough
soaking once a week is infinitely bet
ter than a slight daily wetting. When
flowers or vines are planted near a
house they are in especial danger of
suffering from lack of water and
should have much more than in other
situations. Among the plants which
are heavy drinkers are dahlias, hello
trope forget-me-nots, japanese iris.
Nasturtiums and poppies both will
starve and go thirsty contentedly,
only blooming the better.-Harper's

Poise.

When you lose your temper, when
you procrastinate, when you get nerv-
Gus, excited, when you are blue and
disappointed, when you worry. you
lose much of your energy, your eff
cheney; you cannot bring the whole,
complete, positive man to your task.
A discordant, troubled, unbalanced
mind is in no condition to create, pro-
duce. 1t is negative, and negative
mind cannot produce.
Never mind what others do; run
your own machine, think your own
thought live your own life. Let others
fret and worry, If they will; keep your
poise, your serenity. Do not initiate,
follow, pretend or pose. Be fearless,
self-reliant, Independent. BE your

From the standpoint of an old-fash-

years. 1t has become more rapid, more

A LITTLE THING Changes the Home Feeling

Coffee blots out the sunshine from many a home by making the mother, or some other member of the household, dyspeptic, nervous and irritable. There are thousands of cases where the proof Is absolutely undeniable. Here is one.
 A Wis mother writes:
 "I was taught to drink coffee at an early age, and also at an early age be- came victim to headaches. and as grew to womanhood these headaches became a part of me, as l was scarcely ever free from them.
 About five years ago a friend urged me to try Postum l made the trial and the result was so satisfactory that we have used 1t ever since.
 My husband and little daughter were subject to bilious attacks, but they have both been entirely free from them since we began using Postum in- stead of coffee. l no longer have head aches and my health is perfect"
 If some of these nervous, tired. irri- table women would only leave off cof- fee absolutely and try Postum they would find a wonderful change in their life. It would then be filled with sun shine and happiness rather than wear1- ness and discontent. And think what an effect it would have on the family. for the mood of the mother is largely responsible for the temper of the child- ren.

OVER $9OOO FOR
 FOREIGN MISSIONS
FIRST THREE DAYS HAVE SHOWN GOOD RESULTS-LEADERS THINK SOME COMMITTEES ARE HOLDING BACK THEIR TOTALS

Over 5000 for foreign missious IS the result of the first three days of the every-member canvass in the local laymen's missionary campaign. An ad- dition of $2O00 was made yesterday by the city who have allied themselves with the movement.
 The reports came in to the head quarters very slowly and the leaders of the movement think that some of the committees are holding back their reports in order to make big report at the end of the campaign. For this reason it is supposed that exceptional ly large amounts will be turned in Sat urday and Sunday of this week.
 It was claimed at the headquarters that the committees were working hard nnd were showing much interest In tn cir work Some competition has de- yeloped among the workers which adds more interest to the movement. pr. Arch c. Cree is continuing his lec- lures on China during this week in the different churches Of the city. He will deliver an address tonight at the Twenty seventh Street Baptist church and last night delivered his illustrated lecture at the Avondale Baptist church. Large collections are taken up at these lectures and Dr. Cree is receiving many congratulations upon his success. Most of the mission workers who were in Birmingham over Sunday to help with the campaign have left for oth CT cities where similar campaigns are go- ing on./ Dr. w. P. Stubbs, general secretary of the missionary department of the Meth odist church, left yester- day for Nashville. Tenn, and Dr. Houn- she'll a returned Cerean missionary. will leave this morning at o'clock fol Chattanooga.
 All of the visitors who were in the city Sunday and the first of the week claim that the Birmingham campaign Is the best organized and most sys- tcmatic of any movement of its kind that Is going on in any of the other cites where they have been. They prophesied great success for the cam raign.

TENEbRAE SUNG AT
 ST. PAUL'S CHURCH Holy Week Services Are Deep
 ly Impressive SYMBOLIC CEREMONIES
Several Priests Take Part In solemn Odice-Today Is Maundy Thursday. Procession of Blessed sacra-
 ment Through the Church

In the Catholic monasteries and in large churches where a sufficient number Of priests can be assembled, the office called Tenebrae is sung in holy week on Wednes- day night, Thursday night and Friday night It was sung at St. Paufs church last night, beginning with maths for Maundy Thursday, and will be sung to- night beginning with Good Friday maths and tomorrow night with the maths for holy Saturday The term Tenebrae takes it's name from the ceremony of gradually extingushing the candles-sx on the al- tar and 15 in a triangular candlestick.
 On these three days-Wednesday. Thurs day and F'riday-the church lays aside all the psalms and hymns of praise, which she retains in her office the rest of the year. There Is no solemn invocation or Gods assistance at the beginning or the matins and lauds; no Gloria Patri at the and of the psalms of penitence, no bless ing asked by the reader of the lessons' no "DOm1nuS NoDiscuih 'N
 saithful. no "Oremus to desire their concurrence. or no Amen to express their consent. By all these omissions the church expresses her concern ana tronpie in racalIine the passion of Christi and therefore the psalms and lessons coinpos- ing the office scarcely breath anything alec hut sighs and lamentations for Ills sufferings and death.
 Those taking part in the ceremonies last night were the Rev. Father Coyle' the Rev. Father Bratton; the Rev. Father Charles, o. s. B.; the Rev. Father Downs. and the Rev. Father Canepa. The lamentations of Jeremiah were sung Tn due order and in mournful measure by Father Bratton, Father Downs and Fa- ther Charles.
 I,ather Ccyle preached a short sermon on C,hrists love for man. The discourse was regarded by members of the congre- cation us at once eloquent ana plercing' Father Coylc concluded as follows: HOW are yo,r showing your love for Christ! ! I care not how often you say the rosary CT recite litanes; or how many candies you burn before the statue Of St. Anthony or how lrany petitions you offer before the Infane of Prague. Unless you are manifesting your love for Christ by your ,,evotion to the blessed eucharist, which Is the center CT all our Cathode worship' .uen yoac ether acts of piety count for little.
