lNHNOTES&Sase

Most small fruits form their fruit
buds in the spring.
The quickest growing tree for a
shelter belt is the willow.
Remember that the wood ashes
ara the best kind Of fertilizer for the
orchard, lawn or garden.
The city dealer profits by the lazi-
ness of the grower by grading and re-
packing his badly assorted fruit.
Young fruit trees that were plant
ed in the autumn of last year, or in
the spring Of this year, should be ex-
amined carefully.
That corky old apple, the Ben Davis,
still holds a high place in the city
markets because its fine appearance
deceives the ignorant buyer.
In very dry weather fruit buds are
formed quite early and in case Of a
wet fall immature fruit buds some
times change into leaf buds.
Unless rotten apples are promptly
removed from the orchard, fruit pests
will have an ideal place in switch to
hibernate during the winter months.
After the raspberries are through
fruiting, the old canes are taken out
The canes made this year viii pro.
duce the fruit next year. Burn the
prunings.
Cantaloupes should not be grown
near squash, pumpkin Of cucumber
vines, as the pollen will mix, giving
the cantaloupes a favor Of the squash
or cucumber.
Spray the apples twice with Bor-
deaux mixture to prevent injury from
bitter rot. Put arsenate Of lead in Il
to destroy late-hatched insects, such
as the fail web worm.
Spraying with kerosene emulsion is
one Of the best remedies for the rose
leaf hopper. Make the first applica-
ton as the pest first appears and re-
peat as often as Is necessary.
Strawberry plants that have been
grown All summer in pots and set this

A new book by Lucien Wolf ex-
plains the precise status of the Rus

enlarged upon here, but there is one
point that may be quoted as an illus

Only one class of Jew is allowed full
liberty of motion. Prostitutes NAV
live where they please, and a certi-
ficate of prostitution is a passport
everywhere. Jewesses, anxious to

known to apply to the police for
these certificates and they have then
been prosecuted for their failure "a

WAY TO SPRAY STRAWBERRIES
Leaf Blight Causes Spots on Leaves
and Weakcns Plants--Remedy
for Leaf Roller.
cRv w. II. cHANpLERl

By w, H. C1IANDLER.)
Lear blight Is disease which causes
spots on strawberry leaves. With
some varieties It very seriously weak
ems the plants. Varieties like Aroma
and Gaudy very largely resist t.
Spray with Bordeaux mixture after
the crop is harvested, probably after
renewing has been done, and give
three or four sprayings at intervals Of
two weeks. On badly infested beds
after the crop is off, NOV everything
down and let II dry and burn of when
there is a brisk wind, then follow with
a spraying.
The strawberry leaf roller is a moth
that appears in the spring. depositing
eggs on the leaves. When the eggs
hatch, the larvae feed upon the leaves,
folding the leaves over and fastening
them by means Of a silken thread.
They thus eat only on the inner side
of this folded leaf. They sometimes
seriously injure the plants, causing
them to dry up. There are two broods
a year. The second brood appears
shortly after the strawberries have
been gathered.
The surest remedy for this insect is
to NOW down the plants and weeds
and burn the bed off shortly after the
strawberries have been picked. Spray
ing when the berries are about one
half grown with arsenical poison will
kill the insect, but 1t is difficult to
spray strawberries as they are so soon
ripe after they set. The burning off
process recommended does not seem
TO be entirely harmless to the straw
berry field, as occasionally some
plants will be killed and It will
thus be more difficult to secure a good
row for the next year.

the garden sometimes may be fairly

When the field is plowed up, If they
are numerous they may feed upon the
strawberry root and do considerable
harm.
The remedy is to grow some other
crop than grass or strawberries on the
land until they are starved out.
The Crown Borer is a beetle some
what similar to the Plum Curculio
They deposit their eggs in June or
early July. The eggs hatch into larvae
that eat their way into the crown and
there in feeding, mine out the crown
more or less.
These beetles do not migrate very
badly, so the best remedy Is to rotate
the crop, putting no strawberries on
land that has been in strawberries
during the previous few years, pro-
vided these insects are serious.

that these people hesitate about in
Vesting money in medicine because
they have despaired of ever getting
well. Thousands have sold me that
story and many thousands OF the
same people have told me afterwards
that my treatment had cured them
after doctors and everything else had
failed. want to show these de-
spairing people that all the newspa-
