branches. A more careful examl-
nation will show a canker on the
branch beyond which the parts are
dead or dying. This canker is at
first small, but gradually enlarges
in all directions until it complete
" girdles the branch and causes
death OF the part beyond the point
OF attack. The canker is at first
black, becomes gradually sunken
below the general surface OF the
bark, then roughened and even
tually covered with small orange
colored papillae. This latter con-
dition is most noticeable in rainy
weather. These papillae contain
the spores or fruit which when dry
are carried by the wind to other
parts of this same and neighbor-
ing trees. They are frequently
carried for very long distances.
Eventually cankers may be form
ed on the trunk resulting in the
death of the entire tree.
When trees are only slightly at
fected the diseased parts should
be pruned out and burned and
the wounds painted. The fungus
will continue to live and fruit on
dead wood, therefore great care
should be taken to remove and
burn all the diseased parts, SO that
all the spores of the fungus will be
DESTROYED. When trees are seri-
ously affected it is much better to
cut them down and burn the at
fected parts. The fungus does not
penetrate the wood which makes
it possible to remove the bark
from the trunks and larger bran
ches and thus save the wood for
farm use. The bark should be
carefully collected and burned.
The spread OF this disease
throughout the state of Delaware
presents a serious economic prob
lem to Our people. If the disease
is allowed to spread unchecked it
will result in very great loss
which can only be regained only
after the lapse Of long period Of
time. However, by prompt action
and cooperation of the people the
ravages of the disease can be
checked and probably eliminated.
All citizens are urged to report
outbreaks or suspected outbreaks
of this disease to Prof. Wesley
Webb, Secretary of the State
Board of Agriculture, Dover, Del
aware, or to the writer who will
gladly make examination of the
affected trees and give suggestions
for treatment or removal of same.

Newark Boy Making Good

According to the Delnar News,
Alex Jackson, formerly o.: this
town, is pushing to the front. The
News says:
A. NJ. Jackson, the we'll known
Salisbury attorney who is a candi-
date for States Attorney from
Wicomico county, is making a
good fight, and his friends tnh,k
he will win out at the primaries on
August 20. Mr.. jackson is a
young lawyer of promise. Since
coming to Salisbury from Cecil
county a few years ago, he has
taken an active part in Democratic
politics, and the politicians of the
party throughout the county have
been quick to recognize his abil-
ity. For this reason many of
them are supporting him in pre-
ference to his opponent for the
nomination, George w. Bell. Mr..
Jackson would undoubtedly fill
the position with credit to himself
and to the party, and he would
certainly look the part.

Warning To Farmers

Probably the most destructive
disease of forest trees now known
in North America is the bark dis
ease of the chestnut. Through
the kindness of the Press, the writ
er called the attention of the pub
lie to the presence of this pest i'll
Delaware two years ago and also
exhibited specimen of diseased
chestnut at the New Castle Fair.
At that time the disease was
known to occur at but three points
in Delaware, viz: the vicinities on
Wilmington, Newark and FELTON,.
Recent reports and inquiries in
dicate that it now occurs in ten or
twelve places, most of which are
in the northern New Castle county
and in Kent county from Dover to
FELTON,.
The disease is due to fungus
known by the scientific name OF
Diaporthe parasitica and was first
described and reported in 1904 by
DR.. Murrill OF the New York Bo-
tanical Garden. 1t is supposed to
have been introduced into this
country on the Japanese chestnut,
a variety which appears to be very
resistant to the disease but is not
nearly so valuable a forest tree as
or,r native American chestnut. The
disease first appeared on Long Is
land and has practically destroyed
all the chestnut in the vicinity OF
New York City. The lower point
of New York State, the south
western corner of Connecticut, all
of Long Island, the greater part
of New Jersey, and the eastern tier
of counties of Pennsylvania are
now thoroughly infected. 1t has
also been reported from other
points in New York and Connec-
ticut, in Massachusetts,, Rhode Is
land, Western Pennsylvania, Del
aware, Maryland, Virginia and
West Virginia.
1t is estimated that the loss in
and about New York City is now
between 5 and 10 million dollars
and that the total loss in the in
fected area will aggregate fully 100
million dollars. The last legisla-
ture of the State o: Pennsylvania
made a large appropriation for
fighting this disease, which if al
lowed to go unchecked will cost
that Commonwealth fully so mil
ion dollars.
The first appearance of the
disease is usually in the tops OF
the trees and is easily recognized
by the dying of the leaves and

Domestic Science Teachers

The finest present opportunity
for Young women in the Middle
West, says Superintendent Fair
child, is in teaching domestic
science. There were IS young
women graduated last week from
the Kansas Agricultural College
who will take positions as such
teachers and every one OF them
had from two to three to dozen
offers of attractive salaries.
Since domestic science has been
added to the curriculum not only
of the agricultural colleges and
women's universities, but OF small
colleges and the high schools, the
demand for teachers in this depart
ment cannot be supplied. The
Kansas Agricultural College,
which this year graduated IS
highly trained domestic science
teachers, was the pioneer in the
introduction of this study in col
leges and universities, but now
there are hundreds of institutions
which teach it. The position Of
an instructor or professor of do
mestic science is attractive in sew
eral ways. The work is agreeable /;
it has practical results, and, ow-
ing to the great demand for it, the
salaries are high in comparison
with other educational work.

Thief Escapes in Balloon

Sayre, Okla.-A pickpocket, closely
pursued by the town marshal, leaped
into basket balloon near here today
just as the air craft was leaving the
ground, and sailed away to safety. The
balloon with George Harvey, aero
naut, in the basket was just leaving
the earth when the marshal discov-
cred the pickpocket at work. The
marshal attempted to catch the thief
and hepursued man leaped into the
basket as it cleared the earth. He re-
fused to heed the marshal's warning
cry of 'stop thief" At a height of
several hundred feet the thief drew a
revolver and warned Harvey not to
release the rip cord of the balloon
until he was ordered to do so. Af-
ter the pair had travelled fifty miles
the unwelcOme passenger gave the
word and the balloon was lowered.
Ten feet from the ground the thief
leaped from the basket and ran.
Harvey landed several hundred yards
from the spot and by that time the
thief had made good his escape.
