cursinu In korea.

A strange way of cursing is that OF
the Korean. His ordinary swear word
Is "Oenuma." or You brute. The
Japanese have the same partiality for
this term of endearment. But accord
ing to the Oriental Economic Review
the Korean considers himself especial
ly abusive when he calls Il person his
child or grandchild When he wants
to call somebody down the Korean
demands holly. Are you not my
childr And the angry retort Is:
what! your child: You are my
Crandchild" Then the first goes
step further and cries. You are
grandchild of my grandchild" to
which the rej0inder is: "You concelt-
ell fellow. Have you forgotten That
you are grandchild Of grandchild
of my grundchild?' When their VI
tuperation reaches its climax the peo'
pie of Chosen at last come to the &C.
cidental standard of exclaiming. You

Servants In Turkey.

Turkey is not nearly so benighfed as
we imagine. for there is no servant
question there Though slavery Is still
recognized. the kadun mistress OF the
house) is mother to her servants,
whom she treats as children. and no
children in the world are better treated
than Turkish children The most pain
full thing the kadun can do to maid
is to say: The master has found a
good husband for thee. Thou wilt be
married at such and such time"
"Oh, mistress. what have l done to
be thus abandoned? is the usual sor-
rowful response.
Even after the servants marriage the
kindly relations between mistress and
maid continue There are no fixed
servant wages In Turkey. Faithful
servants are rewarded from time to
time In accordance with their masters
or mistresses' good pleasure or circum-
stances. Chicago Journal.

TREES MERE INJURED.

An Interesting and largely attended
meeting Of fruit growers was held in
the Court House on Saturday after
noon.
DR.. M. B. Waite, of the Depart
ment OF Agriculture made an instruc-
tive address as 10 the proper kind OF
arsenic Of lead that should be used by
the fruit growers, so that injury to the
fruit would be reduced to q minimum.
Dir. Waite stated that in his opinion
Ohio Arsenic Of Lead should be used
and not Pyro and he believed that
very little injury to the fruit would re-
suit from the use of Ohio Lead.
Last year the fruit growers of Fred
erick county used the Pyro and some
injury resulted.
DR.. Waite then spoke OF the injury
to the trees on account OF the cedar
rust, and he eaid that in his opinion
this disease was spread by cedar trees
and that he thought it absolutely
essential to the future success OF the
apple culture that every cedar tree in
Frederick county should be cut down.
He said that the wind conveyed the
germs several miles and that it was
not only necessary to cut down cedar
trees adjacent to an orchard, but they
should be cut down for distance o.
several miles.
Several prominent fruit growers
gave their experience with cedar RUS
last year, and in the opinion of man,
this is one of the most serious diseases
that the fruit grower has to contend
with and it is probable that this dis
ease alone lost to the fruit growers o
Frederick county last year many thou
sand dollars.
The cedar rust first attacks thu
leaves; the tree soon becomes de
foliated and this of course, great!
decreases the vitality of the trees ant
does not permit the fruit to mature
Last year there was large QUANTITY
of very small apples which had to b.
sold in bulk.
It is particularly true of the Yorl
Imperial variety, which is especial.
