CHESTNUT TREES DYING.

Yhe Bark Blight If not checked will
wipe out Chestnut timber in Delaware
40 three years Cutting out diseased
trees and burning diseased bark is the
only remedy. The wood is good until
tt begins to decay, and should be
utilized promptly. Dr.. Mel T. Cook of
Che Delaware Experiment Station has
investigated the extent OF the Chestnut
Bark Blight, for the State Board OF
Agriculture, and reports that the disease
is much more prevalent in the State
than was supposed that diseased trees
are found in all parts Of the State so far
as inspections have been made, which
is as far south as FELTON,. DR.. Cook saws
Taking into consideration the rand I
spread of the disease since its first dis.
cOvery in 1904, Its spread in this State
within the past three years, and the
Barge number Of points ofinfection, the
oariter is OF the opinion that unless
slBme heroic measures are taken for its
control, practically all OF our chestnut
will be destroyed within the next three
years. 1t most certainly cannot last
iOnger than five years under present
conditions" N
D 1Wners are therefore to cut out .

AN accident last Sunday nigh
on the road leading from George
town to Milford, near Reddeu, EN-.
phasizes the quick need for removal
of the little bridges now spanning
the streams running under the roads
all over the two lower counties.
In this accident the driver of an
automobile was passing over a
strange road at night, and it is a
very miserable road even in the
daytime for any person to travel
over with any kind of vehicle, and
in the effort to straddle the deep
sand ruts, the driver failed to OBJ
serve the fact, that a small bridge
barely extended across the road
way Of the tracks made by a car
Tiage, and or course went head ong
into the ditch from the end of the
bridge to the side of the roadway.
Here is another case of criminal
negligence on the part of the pub
Iic-at-large which has permitted a
narrow little bridge to be main
tanned along a public highway, a
trap to the stranger which caused
painful wounds, and might easily |
have cost life. Truly the people
of Delaware have arrived at the
point where it is necessary that they /
should have a million dollar bond |
issue in each county, and expend /
the entire amount in building good
roads and proper bridges. We
want the roads now, so as to enjoy
t2eir use; in twenty years from
now the most of us will not have
any use for any kind of roadway.
In the meantime let the narrow
bridges along the public highways
be succeeded by culverts sufi-
ciently large to carry off the water, /
and which extend from roadside to Y
roadside.

PRAISES FREE SEED RESULTS
State Agricultural Makes Personal
Inspection of Grasses in Beltrami.

After having made q personal trip
of inspection of the fire zone of last
fall, Andrew Boss, agriculturist of
the University of Minnesota, has sub
mitted the following to the North
ern News of Spooner: -
Il have just concluded the inspec-
ton of lands on which free grass
seed was sown this spring and am
pleased to say that all that I have
seen seems to have been carefully put
in and well cared for. Timothy in
many places is heading out and Glow
er is blooming around the edges of
the fields or where sown with out
nurse crops. Both crops will form
some seed this year and will reseed
making the grass thicker next year.
Where sown in oats it is coming
well, but will wilt when the oats are
cut. 1t would be good thing to
cut the stubble as high as possible
thus protecting the grass. If rains
come soon it will be all right any
way. Your people have handled the
seed well and the settlers who re-
ceived the seed have made good use
of it. II all is doing as well as what
have seen Northern Beltrami Co.
will benefit much from the grass seed
shipped in by the state"
