FAMOUS JURisT DIES AFTER AN

WAS ACCLAIMED GREATEST

Washington. Associate Justice
John NJ. Harlan of the Supreme Court
of the United States, often acclaimed
the greatest constitutional authority
of the day. once a conspicuous figure
in national and Kentucky Republican
politics, and long leader in Presby-

Justice Harlan had been i'll with
acute bronchitis less than a week.
He sat on the bench when the court

though not psyically present.
Justice Harlan was in much more
serious condition than his colleagues
in the court realized. DESPITE his ad-
vanced age, he was robust and ordi-
narily enjoyed the best of health. He
was rarely absent from the bench, an
attack of influenza few years ago
being almost the only illness from
which he had suffered for a long
period.
His death was great shock to his
judicial associates. They had greeted
him on his return in apparently fair
health from his summer residence

SUCCESSOR TO STOLYPIN

The czar of Russia could never
have appointed a better man TO the
place than when he made Waldemar
Kokovtzoff his premier. Kokovtzon
had been acting in that capacity ever
since Stolypin was assassinated by
Dmitry Bogroff, SO 1t was not any
thing unusual for the Russian en-
peror to appoint NJ. Kokovtzoff as the
murdered mans successor.
NJ. Kokovtzoff has travelled extern
siveIy In this latter connection he
met many leading statesmen and men
of finance. which gave him broader
knowledge OF affairs outside of Rus
sia than Stolypin ever enjoyed ko-
kovtzoff was also present at the as

him in his recent indisposition. They
felt some concern when the marshal
hurriedly summoned carriage for
Justice Harlan, when Justice Nc
Kenna accompanied him to his home
and DR.. L. B. Hardin, who was called
to the house, found the justice suf-
fering from high fever. But the ex-
tent of the illness was not under
stood. He had had some bronchial
affections for nearly ten years.
Justice Harlan left widow and
five children. Four of the children
were at his bedside. They included

Ian of Chicago. and the Misses Laura
and Ruth Harlan, who live at the
Harlan residence here. The third

president of Lake Forest University,
is touring Europe.
The sudden death of Associate JUS
tice Brewer of the Supreme Court,
who was not only colleague on the
bench but very close personal
friend, very much affected Justice
Harlan.
Chief Justice Fuller's death in the
summer of 1910 was also great
shock to the venerable iurist. Justice
Harlan continued to perform his share
of the work of the court
His great ambition was to serve
until next June, when he would have
exceeded the service of any other
man who sat on that bench. AS it
was, his service was longer than that

Stephen J. Field. Fields was the
longest service. "a years, 6 months

thoroughly year after year, but unless
his neighbor also sprays, the insects
will find their way into the next
orchard and cause more or less
damage.
Various experiment splace the cost
of spraying an orchard three times
per season at about $11 per acre.
This includes the use of team. three
men, the cost of spraying materials,
and gasoline and oil to operate the
power outfit. This expense is insig-
nificant when compared to the saving
OF fruit effected.
In some cases the net cash profit
secured by spraying has been $65 per
aero. In 20-acre orchard spraying
would add on an average $1,000 clear
gain in single season.
The first spraying with Bordeaux
mixture should take place just be-
tween the time the calyx cup opens
und the dropping of the petals and its
closing.
This is only about week, and
therefore the trees must be closely
watched and the spraying done at ex-
actly the right time. Pears, which
also suffer from this moth, keep their
calyxes open much longer. and some
varieties do not close at all.
Two weeks later the trees must be
sprayed again; this time with arsenate
of lead. This mixture will also dis

Doubtless you have observed that
the apples on some Of your trees were
dropping off, and at the Towering end
there were little patches OF brown
dust.
The dropping of the apples was
caused by the codling-moth, and the
patches OF brown dust were the void
ings OF the worm as 1t bored its way
into the fruit.
The codling-moth spends the winter
as tiny worm, securely wrapped up
In an overcoat of silk, in barrels. boxes
and under the bark of trees. and in
the warm days of spring they come
out transformed as moths. These
moths mate quickly and the females
at once begin to lay their eggs on the
smooth surface of the apple trees.
They never make a mistake as to
the location of their eggs, but always
them upon those leaves nearest to
the fruit. The eggs are about as big
as pinhead; look like little specks
Of milk. Sometimes they are SO tiny
that they can hardly be discovered.
After three or four days they turn
reddish. and at the end of week the
The eggs hatch In about seven days
generally when the apples are about
one-half inch in diameter.
AS soon as the worm comes from
the egg it launches lightly of the
leaves and then enters the apple. The
lsorms first Matched generally enter
the fruit at the calyx or Towering end.
The worms bore their way into the
apples until they reach the seed, and
sometimes they destroy almost the en-
tire core.
In about two weeks, after having
effectually damaged the apple. they
crawl out, wrap themselves in new
overcoats. where they are transformed
as papae. Two weeks later the little
moths emerge and lay their eggs,
which in turn hatch out another set
of worms and thus the second genera
tion is born.
The government estimates that the
fruit growers of this country lose
about twelve million dollars every
year from the ravages OF this single
