from the cedar thicket were not cover
ed were. free from the disease. while
those which were not covered were
badly diseased with rust.
The weather last spring was very
unusual, in that We had practically
no rain from the time the leaves un-
folded till the second week in June.
The cedar rust is dependent on rain
and moist weather to cause the cedar
apples to ''bloom" and to cause TO
germlnate the spores from the cedar
apples that are blown to the young
apple leaves. There were some showers
the latter part OF April when slight
rust infection took place, but with the
Exception of a shower on the first and
on the last day of May, there was 20
rainfall in that month, As d result Of
this unusual weather, there was very
5 ight rust infection. Almost the only
Infection that showed up last summer
took place the second week in June,
when there several rainy and cloudy
days, Since there was very little
loss caused by the rust last summer,
the fruit growers may think the rust
is disappearing. But don't let your
ardor cool in the war on the cedar.
The cedar rust is not disappearing; it
was j-st an unusual season. There is
fine big crop Of cedar apples this year,
and all they want is proper weather
conditions ana plenty of apple leaves
on which to grow and you will have
plenty of little Yorks next fall.
Last spring the people of Middle
town and the vicinity offered the Ex-
pertinent Station furnished labcra-
tory where the cedar rust might be
stldjed experimentally The writer,
under the direction of DR.. Il. S. Reed,
conducted number of field expert
ments on the dissemination of the
spores, and on several spray materials
looking to the control of the disease.
We also did considerable laboratory
work on the development of the
causatiYe fungus and its affect on the
apple tree. We observed last ,sum-
mer that the cedar apples were capable
of being a source of Infection as early
as April Sth, that was before the
leaves unfolded, and that they ceased
TO be source of infection after June
16. The Experiment Station is plan
ming to continue next summer the eX-
periments that were begun last sum-
me-
In certain cases where it is no.
feasible to cut the cedar, spray ma
terial that would successfully control
this disease would be great boon to
the fruit growers. Bul where it is
feasible to cut the cedars we still be-
lleve it is the surest, quickest and
cheapest method of controlling the
rust. Now while the farm work is
not pushing is an excellent time to
make have on the cedar.

PURE FOOD LAW NOT MODERN
Centuries Ago Tradesmen Who Adult
terated Goods Were Most Severe
ly Punished.

Pure food laws are not quite so
modern an invention as we may be-
ieve. Dr. Reisner has made d1scov.
cries in Palestine that seem to in
dictate some sort OF supervision of the
food supplies delivered to the palace
nearly 5000 years ago. Labels have
been found that were once affixed to
"a jar of pure olive OIL" We may
wonder what tests were employed and
what would happen to the man whose
oil was found to be not pure. Prob
ably something unpleasant, for there
was no Supreme court in those days.
We know what happened in the mid
die ages to the enterprising tradesman
who adulterated his goods. In 1444
Nuremberg merchant was burned
alive for mating foreign material with
his saffron and the saffron itself was
used for fuel. Probably that artistic
touch impressed the matter upon his
memory.
Some Augsburg bakers who used
false weights and bad -four were
ducked in muddy pool, and through
faulty knowledge OF the human re-
spiratory system, or sheer careless
ness, they came to the surface dead.
In 1882 wine merchant was or
dered to drink six quarts of his own
adulterated vine, and as he died soon
after it is evident that the adultera-
ton must have been serious. 1t is
true that he had TO finish the draft in
a given number Of minutes, and
small number at that, but in those
days they had pleasant way of
weighing the scales and loading the
dice upon the side of justice.
Civilization has changed all that.
Nowadays we shiver with apprehen.
sion lest. rogue shall be punished

CEDAR RUST HASN'T
BEEN STAMPED OIT.

Owing to the heavy loss due to the
cedar rust many of the fruit growers
OF this county have vowed vengeance
on the cellars. AS result of this
propaganda against the cedar and the
large financial loss due to cedar rust.
many fruit growers have cut all the
cedar in proximity to their orchards.
Yet IN travelling about in the country
last summer the writer not infreuuent-
~ saw cedar trees that were badly IN
tected with rust standing along the
fence rows OF valuable apple orchards.
1t goes without saying that the apple
trees are also infected with the rust.
1t is not necessary to explain here
why the cedar is menace to the
apple industry, for the relation of
this rust to the cedar has been fully
explained in previous articles ap-
pearing in this paper. It has been
shown by scientists, and by methods
that are beyond question that the
cedar rust or orange rust lives onc
stage of its development on the cedar
and the other on the apple. 1t is also
held by scientists that spores that
this fungus produces on the cedar
Will not reinfect the cedar; and that
those from the apple will not reinfect
tie apple, but the cedar must infect
the apple and the apple in turn in CT
the cedar. We performed a very in
teresting experiment at Middletown
last summer to prove the relationship
between the cedar rust on the cedar
and on the apple. We covered some
young York Imperial trees that were
growing near a cedar thicker to pre-
vent the rust spores of the cedar from
falling on the apple foliage; while the
