bottle Of strong essence Of mint, a
small sponge and daintily embroi.
dered lawn bag to hold the saturated
sponge.
The bag had spray Of mint leaves
done In colors on one side, and on the

FIRE BLIGHT IN PEARS.

w. P. Wadwell writes from San
Juan county, WASH, and says:
Scan you tell me what ails my pear
tree? The tree is a three year old
Beurre de Anjou and in the last few
days the most of the leaves are be-
coming crisp as though they we're
burned. II you can tell me through
the columns of The Ranch what to do
for this tree you will greatly oblige. !"
The sample leaves sent me look very
much as if the disease is pear blight,
frequently called "tire blight" You
can not cure this disease by any kind
of spraying. 1t is bacterial disease
and works in the sap and can not be
reached by any solution we may spray
on the tree. There is but one remedy
and that is to cut off the affected
parts and burn them. This is diff
cult disease to control and must be
met with heroic treatment. In cut.
ting off the affected parts you must

holes along their sides. Shut off
their wind and they are dead in
iitfy. One trouble to be encountered
in the summer is that the aphis works
on the underside of the leaves and
causes them to curl up and this makes
it difficult to reach the insects.
Tobacco in various forms is now
used quite extensively in fighting
the aphides. Some make decoction
by boiling tobacco stems and spray it
on to the insects. This remedy is
not much used in the Northwest for
the tobacco stems are not readily
obtainable. Two forms of the tobacco
remedy are now sold in this country;
one is known as Black leaf and the
other Black-leaf 40. These two
preparations differ only in strength.
The Black leaf is used in the proper
ton of one part in 60 parts of water,
while the Black. leaf 40 is used in the
proportion of one part to eight
hundred parts of water. Nicotine
sulphate is the destructive element
in both these solutions. Now it is we'll
known that nicotine is the poisonous
principle in tobacco. 1t is claimed
that drop of nicotine from the stem
of we'll used pipe, placed on the
tongue OF cat, will it in one minute.
II you want to kill sheep ticks or
aphides, get this concentrated poison
tobacco and it will do the work. Ii
