all branches to be removed should be
cut off close to the trunk or limb and
no stubs left; all large wounds should
be covered with wax, shellac, or good
paint; tools should be sharp.
PROTECTION FOR THE INJURED
TREE.
Many badly injured trees can be
repaired and saved If the treatment
is given in time. Cavities can be
filed, girdled trees can be bridged
over. splitting crotches can be repair
ed, and trees injured by gas can
sometimes be saved.
To fill ties can be
filled with concrete used in about the
following proportion:
One part Portland cement
Two parts sand.
Four parts crushed stone.
When this is properly mixed it can
be poured into the cavity from above
and will need very little tamping
The outside OF the filling is coated
with thin layer of concrete, one
part cement and two parts sand.
The filling should be flush with the
inner bark of the tree. The swaying
of the tree is apt to crack the cement,
leaving a space between the filling and
the wood and this can sometimes be
remedied by coating the inside of the
cavity with thick tar before filling
with concrete Large cavities are
sometimes filed by bricking up the
opening on the outside and filling the
inside with concrete, the brick hold
ing the concrete in place. Another
method is to drive nails in the tree
on both sides of the cavity and lac
ing wire from nail to nail to hold the
concrete.
Bridging girdled trees-Sometimes
the bark is peeled off around the

the vigor and strength of the top.
The foliage is the manufacturing de-
partment where the transformation of
crude sap into soluble plant food
takes place. Ii the leaves are dis
eased or badly injured by insects the
plant cannot function as it should
and the crop suffers. Potato seed
from such plants will usually be
poorly matured and inferior.
Under normal conditions a grower
can go through his field, pick out
and mark the healthy, sturdy, plants
and be pretty sure that they will be

TO STUDY POTATO DISEASES.

In recent issue of one of the pro-
duce papers appeared the following
article: "To save the potato from
utter annihiliation the foremost plant
scientists of the world are to meet in
the United States within few weeks
and make a most careful study of the
potato industry in all sections of the
country. These scientists will come
from Berlin, Paris, and London and
will 60 into the potato fields in hope
of ascertaining what is wrong with the
plant. The party will start on it's in
vestigations at Bangor, Me-, about
August 1st and will visit the potato
fields OF Maine, New York, Michigan,
Wisconsin, Minnesota, Wyoming
Colorado, Utah, Idao, Oregon, Wash
ington, and California. The work
will be completed about October 1st.
Experts on the growth of the pota-
toe say that the industry is threatened
with destruction from an unknown
plant disease which has been brought
to this country from foreign lands.
So destructive has this disease become
that in Utah. which is one OF the
important potato producing states,
the annual crop has been reduced so
per cent. That the diseases COM
planned of are spreading rapidly is
shown nv the fact that EsIeaf rOIID has
made its appearance in New York.
1t first was discovered in Nebraska.
A number of the big railroads have
guaranteed the necessary money to

pay the expenses of the investigation,
the Union Pacific $780, 900 of the
amount, it is said. The report Of
the experts will be watched with keen
interest"
This is the first report we have had
of such an investigation Of potato
diseases and as yet are unable to
verify it with government or state
reports.

Now is the time to go over the po-
tato field and select out strong sturdy
plants for the production of next
years seed.

trunk or branch Of the tree in the
form of ring. This ring or girdle
cuts off great deal of the food ma
terial from the leaves to the roots and
the tree starves to death. 1t can
often be saved by bridge grating the
wounded part. This is done by
trimming smooth edges of the girdled
part and inserting ciens of the same
species under the bark. The cions
are placed close together around the
stem and their ends united with the
girdled portion above and below the
wound. These will serve to conduct
the plant food from the part above
the part below the wound. Thus the
tree can function properly until the
wound is healed.
To hold splitting crotch--A hole
is bored through each limb, just
above the crotch and a rod with
threads extended through the outer
side of each limb. A nut and wash
er are placed on each thread and
the connecting rod holds the limbs
firmly in place.
Treatment for gas injury-ln streets
where underground gas pipes are a
necessity trees are sometimes injured
by gas escaping from the pipes into
the soil surrounding the roots of the
trees. The first indications of gas
poisoning are the dying and yellow
ing of the leaves during early summer
and an early falling of the leaves
The bark loosens and falls away from
the trunk and sometimes the odor of
gas can be detected on the bark and
soil surrounding the tree. The best
method of treatment is to aerate the
soil by breaking up the surface as
deep as possible. Sometimes a ditch
can be dug around the tree few feet
from the trunk and let the gas escape
by this means.
By few simple methods, many of
the defects in our trees may be over
come. Knowing partially how to
overcome these defects by proper
pruning and treatment of injuries.
Is it not our duty to use our know
ledge and influence for the betterment
of our trees?
