fatal blow such an act as the Cana

WEATHER CONDITIONS
AID APPLE SCAB

Weather conditions have been ideal
for rapid spread of apple Fscab. sAt
this time there are a few orchards in
which the disease is unusually abun-
dant on the fruit, in others the leaves
show more disease, while in other cases
both leaves and fruit show several in
fectons and injury.
Apple scab is caused by a fungus
which passes through two distinct
stages during the year. The fungus
passes the winter in the dead and de-
cayiug apple leaves. Small round
bodies are formed in the leaves, inside
of which the winter spores are formed.
These spores are mature and are dis
tributed about the time the leaves
begin to unfold and later Spores
lodging on the leaves, flowers and
young fruit start the infections which
are commonly known as apple scab or
fungus. New infections take place
from the young spots first formed and
II conditions are favorable the amount
of injury done during the season is
considerable on some varieties. some
being more susceptible to the disease
than others.
To control scab it is necessary to do
very careful work since the way in
which the fungus develops and the
length of time infection takes place
gives a comparatively short time to
apply the ayssnecesasry to keep the
disease in check. The destruction of
the diseased leaves is very good prac-
tee, but is not entirely satisfactory
since all Of the leaves cannot be de
stroyed. Spraying during the fail to
destroy the leaves and to protect the
plants during the spring usually gives
results, The method Of spraying and
the sprays used that give the best re-
suits are as follows:
l. A thorough spraying of the
leaves following the picking of the
troit and before the dropping of the
leaves should be made in autumn.
Bordeaux mixture (6-l-50) should be
used for this application. This and
the htSt spraying for Anthracnose
come at the same time so the fall
spraying is doubly important.
z. As the terminal buds in the flower
clusters are opening an application of
4-4-oO Bordeaux should be used made
Lime sulphur l32 may be substituted
1t the grower SO desires.
T. At the time the majority of the
petals have fallen it is timely to make
a third application Of lime-sulphur -92
since at this time Bordeaux is ant to
russet the fruit. ~ "
a, A fourth spraying is sometimes
done at the time the fruit becomes
smooth or soon thereafter but Mis- an
pIcation has not been entirely satistar-
tory owing TO a russetinc of the frnit
Oue oil the most important of these
Efayings is the fall application and
should be made IN all places where in
IecIIon has been severe this wear.

Already Exceeds the Total Sale Of
Last Year and Next TWO Weeks
Are Expected to Double it.

.. F. Remand, who is handling the
Red Cross seals announces that the
sale this year has already exceeded
the total sale Of last year The next
two weeks are expected to more than
double the number already sold.
Four corporations of the city have
purchased large quantities OF the
seals, two firms have bought 1000
each. People who wish to place them
on packages will be heavy purchasers
during the time from now until Christ
mas.
Mr.. Renaud has been requested to
handle another stamp but was forced
! to refuse. 1t is the William Mckinley
Memorial Hospital fund stamp The
seal is of about the same size as the
Red Cross seals, and bears picture
OF the martyred president.
This fund is also to be used In the
prevention of tuberculosis. The plan
is to raise by voluntary contribution
a fund for a hospital in New York
City to be non-sectarian and open to
all physicians to take care of con
sumptive patients. 1t is also planned
TO maintain camps or other relief sta
tions in different parts of the country
The officers of the league are prom
