BORDEAUX MIXTURE BEST
ROR FUNGUS

John Elliott, Fort Worden, Wash.
under date of June 9th writes:
81 am inclosing some tips of some
of my young apple trees. Would you
please let me know what is the matter
with them? I sprayed them twice
during the winter, November and
March, with the lime-sulphur spray.
There were aphis on them, that is the
reason l sprayed.
The tips inclosed are affected with
leaf mold or fungus. There are so
many of the fungi that it is difficult
to designate each particular kind.
This is not necessary for the treat
ment is very much the same in each
case. The best of all remedies with
which to combat the fungi is the Bor-
deaux mixture. Ny opinion is that
if the Bordeaux mixture had been
used instead of the lime sulphur
wash, the result would have been
better. There is this difficulty, how
ever, to contend with: The person
using the Bordeaux mixture must
learn to make it, for it will not re-
main the same in strength if kept
long. In fact it ought to be used the
same day. Ii a person is spraying

FALSE IDEAS OF THE
COOLING MOTH.

The other day | read in a fruit
paper, edited by very we'll Informed
man, that the codling moth lays it's
eggs in the blossom end of the apple.
l am surprised at such statement
for the simple reason that it is not

Card-enter the apples at the blossom

are laid in the blossom ends of the
apples but for another reason. The

PEAR BLIGHT.

A Mr.. Chase, Foster, WASH, called
on me yesterday and brought with
him some twigs from his apple trees
affected just the same as those sent
by Mr.. Elliot. He feared that the
trouble might be what is called ''tire
blight or pear blight. But l showed
him how he might know the pear
blight from the ordinary attacks of
the fungi. The pear blight is BAG
terial disease and works in the sap.
II we have an attack such as Mr..
Chase had and We cut into the limb

the different fungi. 1t must be re-
membered that the fungi are very bad
in all the Sound country and the fruit
grower must learn how to combat
them. The Iime-sulphur wash is
'fungicide and some recommend it in
preference to the Bordeaux, but do
not.

rarely ever seen in the day time and
if by chance it is disturbed, it fits to
hiding place as quickly as possible.
1t does most of it's flying at night
and lays its eggs at night also. In
some way, which we may not be able
to explain, this shyness of the parent
is transmitted to the young larva and
it too is very shy and as soon as 1t
emerges from the egg. seeks hiding
place. No hiding place is SO good as
the blossom end of the apple and
four -fifths of the young worms enter
there. This led to the conclusion SO
common that the eggs are laid there,
but careful examination has complete
ly established the fact that the most
of the eggs of the first brood are laid
on the leaves. We know this for the
simple reason that we find them there.
The idea once prevailed that the
moth laid it's eggs in the blossom end
of the apple at blooming time but at
blooming time there are no moths.
On our ranch the apple trees are in
bloom the latter part of April and the
moths begin to fly the latter part OF
May. There will be some variation
in these dates according to whether
the season is early or late. When the
second brood appears, the majority
of the worms enter the sides of the
apples The eggs are laid on the
apples frequently during this second
stage, but during the first laying sea-
son the apples are so small that the
most of the eggs are laid on the leaves
near by the apples. What guides the
moth to lay it's eggs near the young
apples we do not know, so we call it
instinct. At the time of the second
brood, both the apples and the leaves
are so large that the young worms can
find hiding places without going to
the calix end of the apple.
Another false idea secured a good
deal of attention, and that was that
the codling moth would fly to light
and also would go to a solution con-
tanning apple juice and in this way
could be caught Many people be-
lieved that they destroyed many of
the moths by open lights and caught
them in pans containing apple juice
and water. l once tried the apple
juice and water solution and thought
| caught some codling moths but
later found that l had not caught
one. There are many moths about
the size of the codling moth and l
made the mistake of confounding
them. How did l find out my mis-

That the president should find it nee
essary at this time to extend assur-f
ances of friendship to Japan, in view
OF the recent commercial treaty be-
tween the two countries, shows how
persistent the war scare idea has be-
come in the minds of great many
people.
This treaty, more than anything
else, went to show the friendship of
the administration for the Japanese.
It was not imperative that it should
be ratified this year, because the old
treaty would have to remain in force
up to 1912, but Japan was very de
sirous of having it go into effect at
the same time her treaties with other
foreign nations became operative and
this country accommodated her.
More than that there were omitted
from the new treaty certain provisions
regarding Japanese immigration which
had been offensive to that empire and
which Japan wanted left out. In fact,
the United States went to consid cradle
lengths in the new treaty to demon
strate friendship for Japan.

Maxine THINGS Hum In Rome.

i
The Romans had three recognized
methods of applauding- the bombus,
the imbrices and the testae The word
bombus did not carry any allusion to
explosives. On the contrary. this form
of applause was the most decorous. in
asmuch as it consisted merely Of a
humming or buzzing noise Thus in a
way the Romans were the first ito
make things hum in public assem-
bly,. The bombus was not the chief
feature the Romans had to offer in the
way Of applause The imbrices meant
a demonstrat ton made with the hollow
Of the hands. The testae meant the
striking together Of the flat portions Of
the hands. From this we may con-
clude that the Romans clapped, but
there is no certainty on this point

REPLY TO WILD RUM0RS

Chief Executive Seriously Annoyed by
Widespread Stories That Movement

for Its Real Purpose Preparations
for Possible Trouble With the Mi
kado's Empire.
Washington, March 23.-At the invi.
tation of President Taft, Baron Uchida,
the Japanese ambassador, called at
the White House. It is understood
the president assured the ambassador
that the United States has nothing
but the greatest friendship for Japan,
and that all reports to the contrary,
which have grown out of the Mexican
situation, are absolutely without foun-
dalton.
The president, it is said, has been
seriously annoyed by the widespread
stories that behind the movement of
troops to the Mexican border was a
deeper purpose of preparing for posi-
BILE trouble with Japan. There have
been all sorts of rumors about under.
standings between Diaz and the Japa-
nese government, and that Mexico
would like nothing better than to en-
broil this government with the Japa-
nese through the revolution now in
progress in her own country.
On the top OF these rumors have fol
lowed others that the United States
Was fully informed of the alleged Mex
ican-Japanese secret agreement and
that it would be prepared to act when
the time came.

HEED THE WARNING
Many Richmond People Have Done So

When the kidneys are sick they give
unmistakable warnings that should
not be ignored. BY examining the
urine and treating the kidneys upon
the first sign of disorder, many days
of suffering may be saved. Sick kid
neys expel dark. ill-smelling urine,
full of "brickdust" sediment and pain
full in passage. Sluggish kidneys cause
a dull pain in the small of the back,
headaches, dizzy spells. tired. languid
feelings and frequent rheumatic
twinges.
Doan's Kidney Pills are for the kid
neys only; they help sick kidneys, and
rid the blood of uric poison. II you
suffer from any of the above symp-
toms you can use no better remedy.
