For the purpose of studying the
chestnut bark disease the u. S.
Department of Agriculture will be ask
ed to send two representatives to this
section. The object in this Is to pre-.
vent the destruction of the trees as
well as to save the owners thousands
Of dollars.
This request has been made by Prof
N. j. Giddings, of the experiment sta
ton of the State University at Morgan
town, who was in the city few days
this week studying the apple collar
blight problem. Last night he return
ed to Morgantown to arrange for
man to be sent from there.
Before leaving Mr.. Giddings, in dis
cussing this question said that there
was no cure for this disease; that
when it once fastened itself upon a
tree no remedy could prevent it's de-
struction, and as there were a mum.
Der of chestnut tres in this part of
West Virginia it had been deemed ad.
visable to take some steps to save
them.
Along the Pennsylvania Maryland
West Virginia border there are more
chestnut trees than can be found in
any other section of similar area in
the United States, and in order to pre-
vent the disease from invading this
area something must DE done. The dis
ease is so destructive that there isn't
a chestnut tree in Eastern Pannsyl-
vania, New Jersey or in the vicinity of
New York City. All efforts to save
them have proved unavailing, notwith-
standing the fact that considerable
money and much time have been spent
by the authorities trying to stamp out
the disease.
Mr.. Giddings will ask the depart
ment to send here Mr.. A. b. Brooks. of
the Department of Horticulture of the
experiment station. In case this is
done, Mr.. Brooks will leave at once
for Washington to spend few days in
the department, and will arrive here
within two weeks, to enter upon the
work

partment of Agriculture, and ID. c.

Thursday was spent in the orchard
OF Postmaster f. G. Henshaw, and Fri
day work was started on the orchard
of Senator Gray Silver. Messrs. Nc
Murran and Neal will remain here for
several days, and any person desiring
to know anything about this disease
can visit Senator Silver's orchard
while they are at work, or any other
orchard where the gentlemen may be
To expedite the work Senator Silver
will furnish the gentlemen with sever

Mr. Giddings said that the collar
blight had become very prevalent in
Berkeley county, and if the fruit grow
ers wanted to save their orchards they
should become active in the work.

ber of the Senate since June Is, 1909,
Mr.. Lorimer was declared to have
been the recipient Of votes secured
by corrupt methods and practices,
and his election was held to have been
invalid.
Technically Mr.. Lorimer will pass
out of the records of the Senate as
a member OF that body, notwithstand-
ing his more than three years occu-
pancy of his seat. Facing his asso'
ciates with the declaration Il am

the roll call showed the adoption OF
the resolution of Senator Luke Lea,
of Tennessee, the Senates youngest
member.

held the Senate to close attention

stepped into the corridor, friends
greeted him again, and a party OF
Sisters of Charity pushed forward to
express regret at his expulsion. At
his Office later, when a physician had
attended him, he said he would not
leave Washington for q few days.
The outcome Of the vote was not
surprise, but the leaders OF the
fight against him bad not estimated
