TO PROTECT SHADE TREES.

During SIC past year shade trees
have suffered severely from insects
and other causes and it has been dis
covered that the destructive agents
are again at work this season vii
liam r. vahlbers. superintendent Of
parks at Oklahoma City. has issued
the following statement, showing how
the trees can be protected
To a majority Of our citizens 1t
seems rather strange that trees ap-
parently in healthy condition should
at once begin to curl their leaves,
wither and die. Having experienced
this condition the past two years and
more especially the one just gone, It
behooyes our citizens to get busy and
locate the cause.
On close examination by the park
department it has been found that the
San Jose scale is abounding in plenty,
especially with the elm tree; also the
maple scale, which however. is not SO
noticeable The borer and woody APP
his are also in evidence and in all
they need immediate attention. The
remedy for these conditions is to use
the following preventiyes;
For scale use the following spray
2 pounds common salt,
G pounds Of unslacked lime,
2 pounds powdered sulphur.
Stake the lime, and add salt and
sulphur while the lime is stacking
this will form a stiff paste, and Is
ready for US. Add sufficient hot wat.
er to form a liquid and spray while
warm. This will give best results if
used on bright clear day with
light wind blowing. Should it rain
after the application, it is advisable
to repeat the dose: ordinarily one ap.
plication Is sufficient for a year.
For the borer, the surest remedy is
to locate his larvae and destroy same
--fill the hole with common soap
For the woody aphis-this destroyer
IS to be found at the roots. The
ground around the roots should be
thoroughly opened and care exercised
not to bruise the roots and apply the
following preventive after diluting
to a thin liquid.
pounds common soap,
2 cans concentrated lye.
10 pounds unslacked lime
Slack the lime adding salt and lye,

COTTON EASES OFF
 TOASTEADY CLOSE
Numerous Reports of Crop Deterioration in South
 Texas

New York, September 7.-After making new high ground for the movement this morning the cotton market eased off from the best under realizing, but closed steady with last prices from to II points above the final figures of yesterday.
 The opening was steady at a decline of to points in keeping with lower Liver- pool cables. while scattered selling may also have been inspired to some extent by reports of rain in parts of the eastern belt. The offerings were by no means heavy or aggressive, however, and short ly after the call the market became firm on covering by recent sellers and fresh buying for long account.
 There were numerous reports of rapid crop deterioration in south Texas, While there were also advices of a more active spot demand in that section of the belt and these bullish features seemed to be creating a more general demand around the local ring.
 At any rate prices sold up sharply with December contracts advancing to Il. l5c or 19 points above the closing figures of yesterday and practically 4oo per bale above the recent low record.
 The continued presence of a low barom- eter in the east gulf, probably accounted | for part of the demand, as 1t led to some comment regarding the possibility oi
 storm developments over Sunday, but realizing became more active in the late I trading and closing prices were 10 points off from the best in consequences Estimated receipts. 24,7SS bales, against | 15 l67 last week, and 1S,27S last year.

Wear Gold Stockings
From the New York World.

From the New York World.
 Miss Aline Gordon of New York and her gold stockings are the subject of quite some conversation at this point of the compass. The fact that the pieturs of golden pheasant is worked on the front of each of the stockings adds some what to the general wonder and admlra tion of the beholders.
 Young men and old, well as women, gaze on the golden stockings with unaf- fected interest as Miss Gordon trips light ly up and down the hotel stairs or sits on the piazza in the bright sunlight. That's just the kind a girl ought to wear when she's climbing up the golden stairs" observed one cross old maid after Q quick glance at Miss Gordon's glittering ankles.
 Two different pairs of these golden stockings have been worn by Miss Cor don in the last week. Each pair cost S100. 1t Is said. There is a barely noticeable difference in the tint. They were woven. according to report, from real cloth of gold which is so valuable that the weav- ars are watched with the utmost eare while at work.
