CHERR TREE AFFLICTED WITH GUMMosIs.
the former the disease is apparently
confined to a rather limited area on
the trunk or branches, such area being
most often associated with a blighted
spur or bud. In the g~eneralized form
large areas Of the trunk or branch may
become involved. and it often results
In complete girdling. This latter type
of gummosis often appears to origi-
nate in the crotch Of the tree"
Mr.. Griffin has suggested that the
use of top worked, resistant stocks will
prevent body girdling. Mazzard seed
lings top grated to Lambert cherries
have proved quite successful in this
connection, as have the same seedlings
top budded to Royal Annes. The
Prunus Mahaleb is a species distinct
from the sweet variety and as a wild
Seeding is native to Europe. 1t is,
like the Mazzard, a resistant stock,
though the Mazzard has proved the
better for the cultivated sweet cher
ries. BY having the body Of the tree
Of a stock immune, or nearly SO, like
the Mazzard, the worst that can hap
pen is the loss of a branch or so,
whereas If this precaution Is not OBJ
served the main body Of the tree is
usefulness Of the tree limited.

Where the HOG Originated.

The hog existed In a wild state on
the continents Of Europe. Asia and AT
RIGA, but none In Australia or North
and South America. The peccary is a
hoglike animal existing In a wild state
in the two Americas, but the true hog
was imported to this country. All
known breeds OF hogs are descended
from the wild forms and are the re
suits Of the skill of the breeder.-Kan-

Fertilizer For pahIias.

Any good commercial fertilizer rich
in ammonia and phosphollc acid and
literally supplied with potash win suit
dahlias, but the best results are OBJ
tanned by using 1t In connection with
manure. Prepare the ground as you
would for corn. When the plants are
towering freely a handful of top dress
ing to each plant and four parts bone
meal to one part nitrate of soda will be
very helpful. Rural New Yorker.

Grade Seed Grain Early.

Do not wait until spring to clean and
grade your seed grain. Do 1t now,
while you have plenty Of grain at hand
from which to select. The best twenty
FIVE bushels Of grain out of a hundred
bushels are worth much more for seed
than is the grain that can be cleaned
from a much smaller amount In the
spring. The cost Of thus cleaning and
grading the grain is very slight, and 1t
enables one to have heavy, plump seed
grain at very little outlay. -Exchange.

The evils Of one crop agricul-
ture are not to be measured In
the immediate present, but in
cur declining years or when we

but emphatic witness Of the sui
cidal policy Of adhering to but
one crop.-Kansas Farmer.

The Dexter breed of dairy cattle
Is Of Irish origin. 1t has been by
some assumed to be a cross of the
Kerry and Devon or SSorthorn, but
there is no definite Information on
this point. The Dexter is more
compact and blocky than the Ker-
ry, Is somewhat lower set and is
usually black or red. The Dexter
is of the smaller breeds of cat
tie and at maturity may not stand
over thirty-six inches high. Mature
Kerry cows weigh from 800 to COO
pounds very often and bulls 800 to
1000 pounds The Dexters weigh
considerably less. The Dexter bull
shown here is owned by Howard

President Kady, of the Waldport

elected a member of the port commits

wreck Of the steamer Condor on the
bar in YaQulna bay Sunday was the
result Of lack Of Improvement in AL

Reclting the circumstances Of the

could not be taken over Alsea bar, that
the ship was compelled to turn back to

and this morning, in the -ope of heading
the man, should he attempt to steal u
ride.
Officers in charge of the case were at
first but little inclined to believe that
the fracas originated over the soda
throwing. Laborers at the camp, how
ever, cling to their first story that every
thing had proceeded peacefully until
Samme discharged copious showers of
soda suds Mt Descarlo. States Attorney
J. Ward Carver issued the warrant for
Sammes arrest, and he viii have charge
of the investigation and hunt for the
elusive gun man. A second gang OF some
forty laborers were to arrive ON the
scene of the contracting company's opera
tons to-day, and it was believed that
the foreman of the men might throw
some light on the affair. Sammie was
employed as an assistant foreman OF the
entire gang and with the arrival of the
foreman he was to have relinquished
charge of the railroad builders this morn
ing.
