HUNTSVILLE PLANS
 TO HAVE COUNTY FAIR

Huntsville. March 2.-(Specia1) )-The question of holding a county fair this year is sbeing agitated by the Huntsville Busi- ness Mems club and 1t seems that a great many of the farmers are becoming inter ested. It is proposed that the fair contine the exhibits to the products of Madison county exclusively. Last year was the first in six that no fair has been held here and after it was too late the people of the city and county realized what they were missing.
 Judge William Richardson, member of Congress, has wired from Washington that he will come home next week for d brief speaking campaign, which will in- clude all of the principal towns in his dls- triet. He will open here March g in the county courthouse and will then make a rapid tour through the seven counties. This will be the only campaigning that Judge Richardson will be enabled to do !, before the primary on April 1.

Saloons and Crime.

The number of prisoners in the West
Virginia penitentiarY on March l, 1912,
exclusive OF federal prisoners, was
LIB. About 48O prisoners received
each year, according to statement of
Warden NJ. L. Brown. Mr.. Brown also
states that a large majority of these
prisoners come from six license counties.
The part liquor has in keeping this in
stitutlon full, is clearly set forth in the
following statement from the warden.
In my judgment, at least Is per cent.
of all prisoners sent to this institution
owe their downfall either directly of in
directly, to the use Of intoxicating
liquors. The more intelligent prisoners
place the percentage even higher than
this. l think that is a conservative
estimate.
Number of prisoners committed to
the West Virginia penitentiary from the
several counties Of the several counties
of the state, for the period beginning
September 80, 1908, and endinng Sep
TENDER 30, 1910, together with the pop
ulation according to the last census, and
classified as wet and dry.
From 80 Dry counties with popula
ton of 534, SIS, 179 prisoners.
From % Wet" counties with popu-
laron of $50. sol, SIT prisoners.
The proportion of inmates in the
penitenGary from prohibition counties
is three and one third for every thousand
Of population, and from license coun-
ties, the proportion is ten to every
thousand Of population.-Th American

Blossom Blight Appearing

Blossom blight is appearing to a
serious extent in many plum and peach
orchards and on wild goose plum and
other American varieties over 90 per.
of the fruit clusters are dead, including
the leaves adjoining them, and in many
cases this wi4l soon work back into the
wood and cause a twig blight.
This trouble is induced by the brown
rot fungus which later causes the loss
of so much peach and plum fruit in wet
seasons. The fungus lives over winter
in the mummitied fruits, and from those
partially buried in the ground; at the
same time the trees are blooming, small
brown, mushroom-li like bodies are sent
up, which scatter their spores through
the air to the blossoms, causing them
to blight if the weather is warm and
moist, especially if they have been
slightly iniared by frost In fact the
disease is often mistaken for frost in
jury when it first appears. Possibly,
also, the severe injury to the wood of
fruit trees the past winter may have
made them blight easier.
Fortunately, this disease is not of
frequent occurrence on the blossoms,
as it is difficult to spray at such a time
as to prevent the injury. A spray with
IA 50 bordeaux mixture, just as the
buds begin to swell, will protect against
infection from spores on the tree, but
unless the rotton fruits are collected
and not allowed to become covered with
destroyed earth, there is no protection
from the cloud of spores they give off
just when the blossoms are open and
when spraying of any kind would
seriovuly reduce the set OF fruit.
