Every case Of catarrh. Of course. II
not fatal. Nor does every case result In
consumption or bronchitis. but neverthe-
less they are very frequent. No man or
woman knows what his or her case OF
catarrh will lead to. Men Of robust
health have succumbed TO resulting con-
sumption and partial idiocy. Women OF
strong vitality have become nervous
wrecks and victims OF bronchitis. Your
good health is not always q preventive
against the catarrh germs.
The more you feel sure there Is no
danger of the catarrh resulting in a dis

The Tree SURGEON.

A new profession has recently come
into being. We refer to the profes.
sion OF operating on sick trees In os-
is n much more serious problem than
1t seems to be, offhand and the vari.
Qua state and federal authorities are
spending a great deal OF time and
money devising ways OF preventing
and curing tree ills.
Private citizens and public officials
have long been awake to these prob.
lens In the eastern states, but wide.
spread interest in the west is OF more
recent manifestation This Is largely
due to the fact that practically all OF
the diseases and pests which infest
our ornamental shade trees have first
shown themselves upon the eastern
Coast. Nearly all have been imported
from foreign countries OH nursery
stock, etc.
At the present time large areas In
the east are practically denuded OF
trees through the devastatIons OF the
Gypsy and Brown Tailed moths, San
Jose, Elm Tree and Oyster Shell scale,
chestnut bark diseases, and other &C.
rious pests. These pests are moving
steadily westward and every inch of
their advance must be stubbornly con.
tested II tho trees are to be saved.
One of the best and easiest ways
to help our trees combat these and
other Ills, is to prune them properly,
so as to conserve their strength. and
at the same time get the best posi-
Bile artistic results
Most of the readers of this column
have to consider trees which are al
ready planted. rather than newly
planted ones. Generally speaking.
then, your trees should be pruned at
least once In two years and prefer
ably every year.
The tools to be used are thin blad-
ed pruning saw and pair OF pruning
shears. Cut of all suckers or water
sprouts, close to the branch.
Remove dead wood wherever found,
cutting with smooth cut as close as
